In reply to the discussion: Tony Kanaan Winner Indy 500 [View all]longship
(40,416 posts)11. A little diversion in honor of AJ Foyt.
From the Geologic podcast, hosted by musician and skeptic George Hrab. From a podcast segment George calls "Rupert McClanahan's Indestructable Bastards" he covers Foyt's "brushes with the great beyond".
It's an absolutely amazing account of the character of this icon of auto racing.
Here's the segment (5+ minute audio):

And forgive Hrab for his cheesy Scottish accent.
I hope you enjoy this. I did.
AJ Foyt, truly an indestructible bastard.
on edit: and congrats to Tony!

You don't have to wait at all, but you should refrain from posting the result in the subject line,
