Jeff Gluck is off the job market that is.
We were all devastated when that state of his employment was radically changed a while back. Much to our chagrin, things in the industry were changing and Jeff became a casualty to the process.
Well, if I can surmise that this is a paying gig, then Jeff Gluck is off the market and on SB Nation!
Congrats to Jeff. He joined up on January 21st.
Check out his new digs, at SB Nation.
I’m sure you were all aware of this, but I had to close out that which I started with my tribute-like article talking about Jeff Gluck.
This morning I was listening to the guys (Nate Ryan & Pete Pistone) on SIRIUS XM 128, and they’ve been doing an awesome job in talking to the media / reporters and such who were let go due to the NASCAR Scene & SceneDaily closing / absorption.
This morning Jeff Gluck was on the radio with the morning boys. (Above image is Jeff having fun with John Daly of The Daly Planet.)
First, Jeff’s voice is a very youthful. I never gave it much thought. When you read someone’s words, your own vision or version of a voice infiltrates your perception. Odd how that is, at least for myself here on NASCAR Bits & Pieces.

When I first started seeing hints that Jeff Gluck was out a job, I thought April Fools day was coming early… I was in disbelief. Jeff is one of the more communicative NASCAR Twitter reporters that I can think of. There are several out there, those that will answer a total stranger, making you feel like part of the process.
But today, in an abrupt move, the organizations owned by Street and Smith, NASCAR Scene and SceneDaily, made drastic cuts. Reporters were asked to turn in keys and laptops and escorted from the buldings.
Those involved in this suprise move were Jeff Gluck, Lee Montgomery, Steve Waid, Rea White, David Exum, Jared Turner, David Griffith, Ben White, Mark Sluder and Shea Alexander were let go.
