A New Playbook for NASCAR
The sports media landscape is set for a fresh twist as the popular podcast Bussin’ With The Boys announces a new NASCAR‑focused series titled Racin’ With The Boys.
The venture is being produced by Omaha Productions, the production company founded by football legend Peyton Manning, and will be rolled out in partnership with NASCAR itself. The agreement guarantees a 14‑episode run that will be distributed across the podcast’s platforms and NASCAR’s own channels.
Racin’ With The Boys is anchored by former Tennessee Titans offensive lineman Taylor Lewan and his longtime teammate Will Compton, both of whom retired from the NFL after successful careers. Their insider perspective, shaped by years of locker‑room camaraderie and on‑field competition, forms the backbone of the show’s narrative.
Lewan and Compton say they want to demystify NASCAR for listeners who may have never attended a race, using their natural chemistry and unfiltered humor to break down the sport’s traditions, rivalries and behind‑the‑scenes stories. Their goal, they explain, is to broaden the sport’s appeal and bring in a younger, more diverse audience.
First Episode Set for May 28
The debut episode will arrive on May 28 and will feature interviews with NASCAR drivers Ryan Blaney and Bubba Wallace, offering listeners an early glimpse of the series’ tone and format.
Industry observers see the collaboration as a strategic move by NASCAR to tap into the podcast’s engaged fan base, while the hosts view it as an opportunity to showcase their versatility beyond the football field.
With the backing of both Omaha Productions and the sport’s governing body, Racin’ With The Boys joins a growing list of cross‑platform projects that blur the lines between traditional sports broadcasting and on‑demand audio content.
