© Hinch and Rossi

Description

A look into the lives of professional Indycar drivers, reality television stars, and great friends James Hinchcliffe and Alexander Rossi. Though Hinch and Rossi have seen plenty of success on the track, the show is meant to highlight their off-the-track lives, including their unfiltered opinions on what’s trending in popular culture, with each episode featuring a number of recurring, unscripted segments and an interview with a celebrity guest. Off Track is at heart a sports show, but Hinch and Rossi are well-versed in popular culture and have experience relating to influential figures across a variety of disciplines. The interviews consist of athletes, artists, and entrepreneurs -- really anyone with a passion for what they do, regardless of what that is. This is the first original production from CastBox.

Thanksgiving and The Baja 1000

We're back! Thanks for bearing with us through a short break (00:01 - 03:52). It's Thanksgiving, so rather than complain about things that grind our gears, we're talking about what we're thankful for (03:53 - 10:10). Thim and Alex also talk about their holiday traditions (10:11 - 13:00) Obviously, American Thanksgiving is better than Canadian Thanksgiving, plus World Wars, Super Bowls, and landing on the moon (13:01 - 15:10). Alex takes us through his experience at the Baja 1000, including his close call with a spectator's car, and why he loves the race/will any IndyCar driver ever be allowed to run it again? (15:11 - 31:05). We're all very happy and proud of Rob for taking his first steps this week, see you all soon (31:06 - 31:43) Outro and Credits (31:44 - 32:33)+++Follow us on Twitter at @askofftrack.To buy a #GetWellWickens sticker and or shirt, visit Toronto Motorsports, all proceeds go to Sam Schmidt's Conquer Paralysis Now Foundation.+++The music you heard in this episode comes from:Ryan Dann of Holland Patent Public Library.

The Man, The Myth, The Nose: Tony Kanaan

Alex has the flu, but Thim is more than happy to fill in for him, even if James isn't happy about it all (00:01 - 04:44). Living legend, and father of a veritable litter of children, Tony Kanaan made his way to Hinchtown to sit down and chat (04:45 - 05:27). Tony tells James about his experiences doing Ironman races, and just how long he's been in IndyCar; hint, it's a weird feeling to race against former teammates' kids (05:28 - 08:08). TK talks about adjusting to moving from Miami to Indy full time (08:09 - 10:57). James and Tony talk about how TK got into racing in the first place {which is amazing, considering Tony was already a teenager before the automobile was even invented}, and how his father's passing played a huge role in his career (10:58 - 14:00). Tony credits Hinch with curing him of his superstitions (14:01 - 17:36). James asks Tony how he is off the track, in his life as a father, and if he has any plans for more kids {hint: Tony's nipping... er snipping it in the bud} (17:37 - 20:57). Tony talks about his plans, or lack thereof, for retirement, and how he'd like to do it; plus, if he will update the tattoo if he wins the 500 again (20:58 - 27:17). Tony talks about competing in Ironmen racing a bit more (27:18 - 28:46). Tony Kanaan is known through the paddock for being a prank master, so James gets him to open up about his favorites, including an epic one on Dan Wheldon in Japan... it gets a little... interesting (28:47 - 35:47). Tony opens up about how he'll approach things if one of his 48 kids goes into racing, plus what it's like when your kids beat you in a competition (35:48 - 39:16). Tony, how fast have you ever driven off a race track? No matter what, everyone's sure it's slower than literally any Andretti on literally any road... especially Mario (39:17 - 44:20) Outro and Credits (44:21 - 45:30)+++Follow us on Twitter at @askofftrack.Follow Tony Kanaan on twitter.To buy a #GetWellWickens sticker and or shirt, visit Toronto Motorsports, all proceeds go to Sam Schmidt's Conquer Paralysis Now Foundation.+++The music you heard in this episode comes from:Ryan Dann of Holland Patent Public Library.

Tricking, Bailey Payne, and How to Uber

The guys are back to bring you an interview with Red Bull Tricker, Bailey Payne! Hinch couldn't stick around for the interview, but he's there for the segments, and Conor Daly subs in (00:01 - 02:33).

Bailey Payne joins Alex, Thim, and Conor to walk them through what "Tricking" is, how he got linked up with Red Bull, and how far a human can fall from {don't try this at home!} (10:04 - 33:06).

The Off Season and Circling Back

The Season is over, but we're still going strong at Off Track (00:01 - 00:27). Alex and James talk about what they've done since Sonoma: some traveling, a Spartan race, just your standard everyday life of an IndyCar driver (00:28 - 09:09). Next, the guys go into what they have planned for the not-so-down-down-time (09:10 - 14:46). Have you rated Off Track, yet? Get on it! (14:47 - 15:35). Grinds my gears!

The guys catch up from across the country and announce that Off Track will be bi-weekly from now on (00:01 - 4:08). Alex and James are here to talk about the amazing products offered by Dollar Shave Club again (04:09 - 05:14). Don't you hate it when someone doesn't respond to your text, but updates their social media? The guys do, and they get into it in a new segment of Grinds My Gears. What exactly do you owe people in a conversation? (05:15 - 13:20). Producer Thim tells you about another podcast you should be listening to, (13:21 - 14:05). Alex and James talk about the season they've had, and how Alex feels heading into the last race of the season, with a shot at the championship, plus COTA next year, am I right? (14:06 - 21:22). James has a message for his friend Robbie Wickens, we all love you Robbie, and wish you the best in your recovery (21:23 - 21:40) Outro and Credits (21:41 - 23:03)+++Off Track is brought to you by Dollar Shave Club.

24. The Pocono Live Show

All of our thoughts and prayers are with Robert Wickens as he recovers (0:00 - 1:30). Brought to you by the dogged CastBox, the guys record a live show at the Pocono Speedway, the night before the race, in what -thanks to PA State Representative Doyle Heffley- is legally "Hinchtown" (01:31 - 5:54). Paul Tracy talks with us about interviewing people on the grid, his Instagram, Captain Quebec, and why he thinks the series needs more rivalries and villains (05:55 - 19:38). Paul talks about his coming up in racing, his days in CART, and his hostile letter from Ashely Judd, plus his motorcycle business and how fast he's ever driven off track (19:39 - 32:29). Battle Royale: Sports commentators, Rossi somehow makes a solid choice terrible, and the live audience chooses the winner (32:30 - 38:08).

23: Rossi's Luck, Mailbag, and Alonso Watch 2018

Alex and James are live from Hinchtown, for a mailbag episode, where they answer YOUR questions; brought to you be the incontestable CastBox (0:00 - 2:12). Alex had a bit of a week, going to the Colts training camp, where he was even able to ask Andrew Luck a question from the media scrum (02:13 - 05:52). James cues up the clip of Alex and Luck, in which Rossi asks if Uncle Rico inspired Andrew's new mustache, and Luck hits him right back (05:53 - 08:59). Before the mailbag, James asks Alex if he has any experience with hate mail, which he didn't until his on-track interactions with Wickens this season, but Rossi explains why he doesn't think being hated is always necessarily a bad thing, even if it's because of Hinch's ubiquitous Honda ads (09:00 - 13:21). Mailbag: Thim reads questions that we've gotten on twitter and email: questions about Smoke and Alonso, Lucy and Brunner, the guys' race routines, and more (13:22 - 26:17). Before they wrap it up, Hinch and Rossi discuss the Alonso news, and dive into what they would do in his place (26:18 - 33:02).

Alex and James catch up on current events, including the guy who rigged the McDonald's Monopoly game (02:24 - 07:28). Who would play who in a movie? The choices are... interesting (07:29 - 19:26). Alex and James talk about what it's like in IndyCar to interact with the fans, and what that's like for them (19:27 - 27:20). James tells a story about his most memorable fan interaction, with a girl through the Make-A-Wish Foundation (27:21 - 32:23). Alex talks about the time he helped bring the Borg Warner Trophy to a fan's workplace to surprise her, and why she wasn't too excited to see him -who could blame her? (32:24 - 36:54).

21: Freedom, America, and Conor Daly

Turns out our guys have another job outside of podcasting -who knew?- so Hinch couldn't join us this week; brought to you by the unwearied CastBox (0:00 - 0:46). This week they talk to American hero, IndyCar driver, Amazing Racer, and soon-to-be NASCAR driver, Conor Daly (0:47 - 2:09). Conor and Alex talk about coming up in racing together in Europe (2:10 - 6:03). The guys tell some stories about the Amazing Race shenanigans that didn't make it on camera, hotel beer pong anyone? (6:04 - 21:59). Alex and James talk about the Dollar Shave Club (22:00 - 23:02). Conor talks about what he has going on in the future, in terms of IndyCar and NASCAR, plus how Conor manages the physicality of racing with his diabetes (23:03 - 28:26). Conor talks about how he found his way into the EDM scene, and his life in that world (28:27 - 31:05). Conor talks about living with Alex and James, and why James doesn't love it when you put a dining chair on his coffee table (31:06 - 34:48). Battle Royale: Action Movie Stars; Conor can't seem to grasp the nature of the question, and Alex almost steals defeat from the jaws of victory, the clear loser here is Thim (34:49 - 41:20).

I loved the show with Conor. He is as good of a person as I have ever been lucky enough to meet (several times) in Indycar. He deserves to get a great ride next season. Like his dad, He can really wheel it.
