The Women’s Motorsports Network Podcast has taken a major step forward, officially launching its own Patreon platform with packages starting at $8.50 AUD a month to help grow the show and continue spotlighting the stories of women across all forms of motorsport. Press: Melinda Russell.

Hosted by Melinda Russell, the long-running podcast has built a reputation for giving voice to drivers, crew members, officials, photographers, track owners and fans whose stories often go under-reported. Moving to Patreon will allow the show to increase production, improve audio quality with upgraded equipment, and reach more women in motorsport through virtual and in-person interviews.

According to Russell, the new platform is designed to bring listeners deeper into the community while ensuring these stories continue to be shared and preserved. Patreon members will gain access to a range of exclusive benefits depending on their tier, including bonus content, early access to selected episodes, member-only Q&A sessions and polls, social media or on-air shoutouts, and occasional exclusive resources or surprises.

Crucially, member support will also help the Women’s Motorsports Network expand its efforts to encourage and guide women and girls seeking a pathway into motorsport—one of the podcast’s central goals. Fans can explore membership options at here, and the podcast remains available on Apple Podcasts and other major platforms. More information can be found at wmnnation.com.

With the launch of Patreon, the Women’s Motorsports Network aims to elevate even more voices, celebrate the achievements of women in the sport, and grow a supportive global community dedicated to motorsport equality.
