It's been a calm week here in Kentucky, hasn't it? Not really. Let's just talk about all of it. We've got a lot to get to, so this will be a fast moving show. Recapping this past weekend and looking ahead to the next. Plus, two of our tracks will join us for a major scheduling announcement. Here's the lineup:8:05 PM- Bill Lupinos 8:15- Kyle Parker8:30- Live's Top 58:45- Rockcastle Speedway and Lake Cumberland Speedway9:00- Mudlick Valley Raceway


There’s a particular sound and smell to a dirt track on a Saturday night, and a particular kind of conversation that happens in the pits afterward. Dirt Racing in the Bluegrass Live captures that feeling, straight from central Kentucky. Hosted by Josh Chasteen, this isn’t a polished studio show; it’s the unfiltered talk you’d hear among friends who live and breathe local short-track competition. Each episode digs into the stories behind the sport, bringing you voices from the driver’s seat and the promoter’s office. You’ll get updates from around the region, but the heart of the podcast is in the candid interviews-hearing directly from the people who are getting their hands dirty every week. It’s for anyone who feels that pull toward the clay, whether you’re in the stands or behind the wheel. Think of it as your weekly pit pass, a direct line to the community keeping the Bluegrass covered in dirt. Tune in for genuine discussions that go beyond just the results, celebrating the passion that fuels every lap and every conversation in this corner of the racing world.
