About

Amazing things happen when girls discover Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math – yet according to the University of Washington's I-LABS, girls can start believing that certain activities are for boys as early as the second grade. To show off the true potential of tomorrow’s brightest STEAM minds, Slate Studios brings you Life on the Fast Track: a documentary podcast series that goes behind the scenes of the second-annual Girls’ Fast Track Races, powered by Ford. Join our host, Fawn Qiu, an award-winning technologist and educator, as she follows three Girl Scouts through the design, construction, and race phases of the contest. But just like the race itself, this podcast is about so much more than fast cars. Life on the Fast Track is produced by Slate Studios in collaboration with Ford.
