• Ferdi Porsche wants everyone to go racing

  Ferdi Porsche is the great-grandson of Porsche's founder but he is definitely making his own way in life. Architect, brand creator, ice race...hoster, and now a karting league owner, Ferdi wants to bring fun to cars and racing to more people (including kids). The intent behind his F.A.T. International karting league - to give more kids access to competitive karting and thus, racing- is one deserving of our attention and support. Relaxed, smart, and intentional. A conversation worth hearing. https://www.instagram.com/ferdiporsche/?hl=enhttps://www.instagram.com/fat.icerace/?hl=enhttps://www.fat-kartingleague.com/ Recorded October 13, 2025 Show Notes:DeleteMeGet 20% off your DeleteMe plan when you go to www.joindeleteme.com slash TIRE and use promo code TIRE at checkout.  FactorEat smart at FactorMeals.com/tire50off and use code tire50off to get 50% off your first box, plus Free Breakfast for 1 Year.QuinceLayer up this fall with pieces that feel as good as they look.
