This episode coming to you hot and sticky from summer in Australia as we welcome guest Renée Dahlia! [Kate would like to note that we recorded this episode back when it was, in fact, summer in Australia, despite releasing it now, when it is summer in North America.]

Season 2, Episode 6: Special Guest Renée Dahlia Racy Books

Renée is the author of Episode Five’s Driven to Distraction and we talked about:

• the dangers of informal rally racing

• children as gateways to interests (Renée’s son made this map!)

• a certain champion’s bad dad trauma

• why authors choose not to use “F1” in their work

• research (or “something underlined in Hanna’s notes that starts with R”) 

• Rachel Reid’s Heated Rivalry

• the real-time feeling of crashes

• what’s next in Renée’s Gamble Racing Series.
