    Putting the “Sports” in Sports Cars

    Skip McGoun has presented and published on the history and culture of finance as well as automobile history and culture and served as area chair of the Vehicle Culture Section of the Popular Culture Association.

And has been Edited, Remastered and Produced in partnership with the Motoring Podcast Network.
