Paul talks about his hilarious start in NASCAR, his journey from a linebacker at Bowling Green, and his hilarious major in college of "exercise science". Paul also talks about how his journey through college football led him to NASCAR, trying out for pit crew teams, and finally figuring out how to make his way into a full-time role on a team. Paul breaks down how wild his team works, the dangers of working in pit road, and how they actually watch film of their performances to see where they can improve. Paul also talks about how wild it was to win the Daytona 500 in 2018 as part of Austin's team. Plus Paul breaks down how the reality show came into focus and how much he's enjoyed working on it.
