Off the cutting room floor
Those were great interviews with Tyler Epp and Jimmy White on today's (Saturday, 8/19) podcast. To think that this quality material had been on the cutting room floor. Certainly, there must be some vehicle for the geniuses at Rowdy central command to make this "wasted" interview stuff available for us to listen to outside of the daily podcast. After hearing today's interviews, it blows my mind to think what great information we are not hearing simply because it had to be edited out in the interest of time.
Guys, is there some way to pick some of this stuff off the cutting floor and make it available for our listening enlightenment on a routine basis?
Average Rating:

We're working on it. This is an ongoing discussion. The two ideas we've discussed are:
1. Launching a bonus podcast from time to time.
2. Creating a "Cutting Room Floor" section right here on the website which we populate with bonus material like the interviews your referenceing, Rowdy outtakes and driver cuts.
The second scenario is the more likely and we'll keep you posted on the progress.

Imma thinking I like the second idea as well! Although they both sound pretty good!!

I'm greedy... I like both ideas. An occasional "cutting room bonus podcast" during the off-season maybe?
Out-takes with you guys goofin' off, screwin' up or laughing too hard would be fun to listen to also... Nonetheless, I thought the Sat. podcast was a great listen.
