I wish Parente and Drive would do more of those and go beyond some of the basics. Perhaps discuss car control skills and ***** v. the mythical line most hpde instructors are obsessed with.

Maybe an interview with someone like Mike Skeen who has done great, starting with a reality show and SpecE30 or someone like Patrick Long. I always like listening to and watching pros, learning from them then most hpde instructors or regional racers that go with the same garbage in garbage out approach they learned in the 80s (there are exceptions of course).
