Laura Beth Barnhardt is the NASCAR race producer/director for PRN, and the tables have turned as she’s the one behind the microphone. Barnhart shares about the adrenaline of not being able to edit the show together later; being a strong leader in the booth directing men; the easiest way to understand what a race director does; going viral with a BTS video from the booth; why live pit stops are her favorite segment to produce; PRN waiting for its first race of the season and having a choppy schedule; juggling three different jobs as PRN isn’t her day job; the tools inside the broadcast booth to do the job; the dynamic of working with Doug Rice, who is the boss; landing on Rice’s radar for a PRN job; working through the PRN system to her current role; directing NASCAR versus college football; what drew her to radio in the first place; being a gear head; what sports have taught her.
