Grip Strip Podcast Episode 189 - Survival Time - a podcast by Philip G. Mathew

Phil and Josh return for another episode of the GSP to cover the carnage that is Talladega with Young Ryan Blaney earning a third photo finish victory over Kevin Harvick (prior to his DQ).  The guys get into the race which saw plenty of Ford's lead with Joey Logano leading the most laps and Blaney and Keselowski winning the stages.  The fans saw 70 lead changes among 24 drivers plus the usual wrecking with Keselowski causing the big one.  Brad and Ross are among the drivers stressed going into the Roval at Charlotte with the points cutoff. 

For the Trucks, Brett Moffitt in a one-off won for Front Row Motorsports but the defending series champion Zane Smith will be in a must-win situation heading to Homestead. Nick Sanchez and Parker Kligerman won the stages but Sanchez ended up in the news after a big wreck with Matt Crafton, after the three-time series champion sucker punched the rookie post race.  The crew goes over the points heading to Homestead and the story of KBM being sold to Spire Motorsports.  

In the NFL, Phil and Josh have mixed fortunes with their actual teams while the fantasy football side is providing varying results.  The guys discuss their favorites and the players that are good/bad for them in real and fantasy sports.  The GSP Roundup looks at MotoGP/Moto2, WSBK, NHRA, Supercars at the Bathurst 1000 and Andretti Global being approved as the 11th team for Formula 1.  Speaking of F1, Phil and Josh preview who will finish behind Fish Lips at the Qatar Grand Prix after he gets a second title, along with previews and picks for the Charlotte Roval and who advances before Josh's Sim Segment and Show Close.
