Josh gets all serious when we go live. Once T.J. starts on, hi, everybody. He has a pen. He starts marking down when cursing happens.
Starting point is 00:02:24 Every time someone swears, Josh reaches over the keyboard and pushes this little key. Josh, just let it go today. There he goes, keyboard guy. God, damn it, Josh. What the shit, Josh? You guys are assholes. And he sucks in editing, so that makes it even funnier. One of these is going to make the shit.

Starting point is 00:03:08 Yeah. Thanks to One Main for bringing this obviously highly educational podcast today. Yeah. An Exalta Studio with the awesome backdrop here. And speaking of Exalta, don't forget to head over to the revamped Exaltor Racing.com to get all the latest news, photos, and schedule for Dale Earnhardt Jr.'s number 88, Exalta Chevrolet. Because their website got a fresh coat of paint. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:32 I liked that. I thought that was pretty cool. A pun intended. Pun intended on that one. Kristen, that was your voice that Brad Little likes, like when you do that whole exaltority, I think that's... When I do my professional commercial voice. Yeah. Yeah, you're like the Morgan Freeman of women, I'm telling you.
Starting point is 00:03:46 I was, so last week I went running and I turned on our podcast to see how bad we were. And TJ, you're the Morgan Freeman of Women. And I was trying to like figure that out. And I was like, that's just weird. Like, you can't have a Morgan Freeman of Women, can you? It was funny. But I was trying to get my voice in my head trying to hear a voice. Can you narrate?
Starting point is 00:04:07 He narrates this one rap song. That's amazing. Morgan Freeman? Yeah. He does like the intro and outro of it. Can you narrate that rap song, Brett just played? We did the prelude to it today, didn't we? Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:04:18 Can you narrate that in your best Morgan? There are children in the gift shop. Can you narrate that in Morgan Freeman? You're the best Morgan Freeman you can. Oh, anyway. We'll see how terrible Josh. Everybody right now is all of a sudden Googling two live crew and their planet.
Starting point is 00:04:33 Anybody between 30 and 50 is listening to two live crew right now. Yeah. The clean versions, of course. Because anybody between 720s, probably not. seven and fifteen's probably not i think i started listening to it at 15 and my mom heard it and she like was part of that whole burning tape cassettes in the middle of the road yeah i think she was in the middle of that yeah son what are you listening to you to grow up to be wholesome son what are you listening to i was like i don't know but it's badass didn't we go over with our first CDs what was
Starting point is 00:05:00 your first couple CDs i had tragic kingdom no doubt no doubt oh that was late yeah my first tape cassette was bon Jovi living on a prayer on CDs I don't know remember my first CD. How do you now remember CDs? They were the most recent thing before downloading. I had live throwing copper. That was on my first one. Oh, that was that. That's awesome one there. When, when did CDs come out? What era? 90s? 90s. Yeah. It was early 90. Early 90. Early 90. 90. So like high school. Yeah. Color me bad. That was that was that was actually one of the
Starting point is 00:05:35 song choices today have one thing. I want to. That was actually one of the first CDs I had. I sure did. Color me bad. See, he had it. Rex and effects. Rex and effects is in the checks, but I'm the wrecker. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:05:50 See? Check baby. You're missing your career. You're missing a new career here. You're missing a new career here. In the music industry. Baby, check baby one, two, three. You could do the pre-race concert.
Starting point is 00:05:57 It's Teddy. Ready with the one-two check-up. Yes. I had Rex and Effects. So what was your first CD in? I bought like four of them at the same time. It was color me bad. Rex and effects.
Starting point is 00:06:09 A sick. My color me bad. It was kind of on point. It was. What was the other one? Nirvana. Was it another one? Live.
Starting point is 00:06:17 Nirvana was amazing. Live. No, it wasn't live. Stone Temple Pilots. That's who it was. That's good. I watched a documentary last night on, I always thought Courtney killed Kurt, but it was a really a documentary.
Starting point is 00:06:30 I was obsessed with Kirk. What's your favorite Nirvana song? In your own was a gray album. You won't like mine. What is it? I think mine's probably 4th of July. Well, it's got a bad title. I can't really tell you the title.
Starting point is 00:06:44 Because you all already think I'm a pervert today. I think you're a pervert all the time. Okay. Rape me is the name of the song. That's a really good song, though. Yes. Yes. You know we've all seen that riding down the road.
Starting point is 00:07:14 Yeah. I mean, that song was pretty popular. Yeah. That album they did with the Naked Baby on the cover. Oh, yeah. In utero. Never mind. Never mind.
Starting point is 00:07:25 In utero. That was after that. That one. Never mind. What was the Fourth of July song on? That was the one I played the most. You know what I'm talking about? Did you ever look up the picture of the kid, the baby?
Starting point is 00:07:36 Yeah, I saw that. What he looks like now and he did a picture. Somebody tweeted it. I saw it maybe five, six months ago. when he was older. Dude, can you imagine having your penis on an album cover? Is that okay? Can you say that on this?
Starting point is 00:07:48 Penice? Penice? That's fine, right? Start the show, God, somebody. Lord, not at the table, Brett. Well, before we get started, we want to do a moment of silence for the late Brian Claussen, who passed away Sunday after injury sustained in a midget car wreck at Belleville Speedway on Saturday night.
Starting point is 00:08:11 Our thoughts and prayers go out to the family and friends of Brian. Yeah, that's a bad deal. Yeah, that's not really sad. I read about it right before I had trouble going to sleep Saturday night because I kept waiting for more news on it. I know. And there was nothing to come about until, you know, the early, early morning hours. But it's never a good sign.
Starting point is 00:08:37 It always seems like this year, this time of the year, every year. Walkins Glen Race Week. It's always something, man. Something tragic. There's always something. going on. I mean, it was Leffler, Kevin Swindell at Nostell a week from now. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:08:50 The Sprint Car Wreck with Tony and now Brian Closson. When you first saw the report and you saw he was airlifted and you saw he was cut out and you saw they kept racing, you know, the first thing I thought about was, man, we hope this is a Kevin Swindell moment. You know, we hope we hear this guy is okay but has major injuries, but is okay.
Starting point is 00:09:10 And then Sunday morning, news kind of broke at the racetrack, within the industry that he wasn't okay and I know they held it until all the family got there to obviously make it official but man bad deal they got to do something to those cars they got to make them safer period yeah I don't know I don't I've thought about it but compared to how many sprint car races there actually are there's very very few injuries in that racing yeah but one man when I look at our sport and I look at the day we said we've had enough was Wendell Earnhardt had that wreck at Daytona and NASCAR got heavily involved the drivers got involved the teams got involved outside agencies got involved whether it was head neck restrain or it was safety you know safe
Starting point is 00:09:54 for barriers and we made our product safer is it still dangerous yes but it's way way way safer they can give those drivers more protection I just don't know if there's a if there's a way there's a way I just don't know if you can close that cockpit up enough to where they can get out the top board the side of something, you know, they crash and bars get folded up. You can't, you can't make a guy stuck in there. Um, you got to do something. Somebody's got to do something. Just, well, and I mean, the other issue is like, you know, these, these tracks across America don't have near the money to yeah, but facilities any safer than they are. But see, this wasn't a facility deal at all, though. I mean, I understand it. I'm just saying what we're talking about. Brad Sweet had a, Brad Sweet had a
Starting point is 00:10:34 really bad wreck maybe two years ago. Yeah, it's not last year. And that was a facility issue. I mean, The wall was basically like a wood splitter, you know, where he went up on it. And very fortunate that he made it out. But those cars still, I mean, look, racers know they're accepting danger. It'd be tough to have a facility to try to make it because sprint cars can. They can do some crazy stuff. They can clear the fence. I've seen one clear the fence at Volusia and Florida.
Starting point is 00:11:03 Yeah, they can clear the fence. So was he in a 4-10 sprint or what was he in? No, he was in a midgett. Yeah, he was in a midget. So, yeah, we should have Stevie Reeves on here next week. I mean, even the 4-10 sprint cars, I mean, they're 1,200 pounds, 900 horsepower. They were ridiculous. That, well, his was a wingless car, too, so he didn't have.
Starting point is 00:11:23 A lot of the wing stuff doesn't have nearly the impact because that wing absorbs a ton of stuff. Yeah. And, uh, but anyway. We're not getting into the forensic portion of it, but they got to do something. Yeah. Let's kick spot on. You don't want to do a BS session? What do we've been doing?
Starting point is 00:11:41 We've been BS and since we have on. Jesus. Spot on, spot off. Garrett Cope's car explodes in the Xfinity race at the Glen. Man, I'm glad I was spotting the front stretch. Spot off for me. I saw this thing on the big screen and I was like, oh my God. It was the most bizarre thing I've ever seen.
Starting point is 00:12:05 I've never seen a car explode like that. And, I mean, honestly, I think I about hit the deck on the front stretch when it exploded. Will was spotting for Elliott at the bus stop. And I said, Will, did you just shit pants? Because I think I would have. I mean, he said it sounded like a full-blown bomb. It looked like someone planted a bomb in the front of his car. Yeah. God. The guys of the pit box were like, he just rolled over at Claymore. Yeah. So could you imagine if that thing actually made it back to Pit Road? Oh. And blew on Pit Road. What do you think he did in the car?
Starting point is 00:12:42 You think it messed up his hair? He said, in my 35 years of racing, I've never experienced anything like that. It blew up in my face. Definitely think he probably peed a little. Well, our pit box thought he crapped his pants. Yeah. Actually, no, Brett said that over the radio, didn't you? Yeah, I did.
Starting point is 00:12:57 Yeah, I mean, that's the first thing he's had exciting having to him in a long time. He didn't actually seem too big of him in a hurry to get out either. He gives Harmon a hell of a run for his money every week on who can be the most lives down. You know? Wow. My God. How can you mean The legacy of a Daytona 500
Starting point is 00:13:15 Champion completely gone to Hell I mean I'm a Daytona 500 champion And now I'm 27 laps down On an infinity race at Iowa Speedway Why? How many cup races is he won? Why?
Starting point is 00:13:29 How many cup races he won? Just that one. One. I think he was in the main intel car When he won it It was the 10? No, it was a Purulator car in Daytona? Is it a Purulator?
Starting point is 00:13:40 Oh, yeah. Ten car. Mm-hmm. Then he was in the main Intel car And his hairs looked great ever since Well that's all that matters But why? If you own a car
Starting point is 00:13:49 I bet T.J. makes more money spotting than Derek Cope is making right now. I don't know about that. Maybe us add it together with you Because Spot on, spot off. Watkins Glen sells out reserved grandstands Two years in a row.
Starting point is 00:14:06 Spot on. That trek's always put on a great show and one the road courses are two of the highest rated races this year so jeff gluck does a poll every week you see it was that was it's a good race and people just vote they're in the mid to high 80s i mean that's crazy man it's a fun race too i went checked out there infield which i haven't done in a few years and it was on sunday morning before the race and man those guys had a rough night saturday night there were a lot of babies made there were a lot of hangovers i mean beer and In the morning.
Starting point is 00:14:41 Hair of the dog. I had some friends camping there. Came and hung over at the same time. I don't. We'll have to talk about it off the air because they were sending pictures. I mean, if people passed out and... Let's tweet them. Oh, man.
Starting point is 00:14:53 No, you can't tweet these. You can't tweet these. Awesome, I feel. The track has announced plans, too, for a new viewing deck outside the S's. Like what the stuff TJ's talking about or viewing those stuff? Both. Race view. Outside the S's?
Starting point is 00:15:08 Yeah. Okay, good. Well, that's all? turns to him for it. That'd be awesome. Yeah. Yeah, that's a fun place, man. I really enjoy the weekend there. It's always a good time. Spot on, spot off. Joey Lugano wins the Xfinity pole and the race. He's dominated that thing.
Starting point is 00:15:23 He's beating his teammate. I mean, spot on for them guys for having a good setup for that place. He could use some of Derek Cups' hair tips. Who, Joey? Yeah. I'm trying to picture it. Maybe we need to Photoshop this. Yeah. Who's good at Photoshop in this room? Josh's got like an army case on his phone. You see that?
Starting point is 00:15:43 Yeah. So a tank runs over it. It still works. The grenade. Tactical. Tactical. Yeah. Hmm.
Starting point is 00:15:50 Anyway, spot on. They've dominated that race. I mean, they've got to figure it out. 67 of 82 laps. The lap race is too long in my eyes. It's like less than 10 laps shorter than a cup race. Yeah. That's too long?
Starting point is 00:16:03 Eight laps hall. I need a little more time on Saturday. It was a one red flag race and the cup race was a two red flag race. I need a little more time on Saturday night, Corning. God. To do what? It doesn't matter.
Starting point is 00:16:15 What are you doing in Corning? We get done with that race and it's like 6.30 and you get that. T.J. is the most lame guy on the weekends ever. It's like, he goes back to a hotel room and games. I have a lot of high school friends. I have a lot of high. Hey, he can see his car. Better than getting hives.
Starting point is 00:16:27 He can see his car on Sunday for 13 seconds of lap. He's got to rest up for that one, boy. You got to be ready. You got to be ready to run Jeff Gordon in the back Austin, dealing at 200 miles an hour. I have a lot of family and friends that around that area. So that's Brickhouse's area. Did you have a good time?
Starting point is 00:16:44 Did you have a good time? Did I? You were race day only. I was race day only. Are you serious? What did you tell Jeff Adrey knocked the hell out of the three car? I didn't know what happened.
Starting point is 00:16:55 He come around there and he's like, yeah, I got a little, I'll be a tire rub and I come by there in the hoods boat up. I'm like, what you know? F-16 bombs you in the left rear, left front. I had no idea what happened. And, I mean, I knew what happened later
Starting point is 00:17:07 when he told us to, we had tried to pass the 13 into turn one. We had a run on him. And of course, we're 18th, and he's going to the inside blocking. You know, like, okay. Or you're not giving, you're not having 18th, buddy, not happening here today. And so he goes to the inside. We go to the outside of him.
Starting point is 00:17:25 He still, you know, we almost pass him, but he pulls us off the turn. And then he gets a run on the three car, and he shoots inside the three car. Well, they race into the bus stop. Yeah. Instead of, instead of Austin, you know, okay, you got this spot. You shouldn't ever. really race into the bus stop, if you can help it.
Starting point is 00:17:41 So they race in there, and they also just slowed up more than what he thought he was going to slow up, and Jeff run into him. He definitely ran into him. He definitely hit him. Luckily, it didn't get into a tire or anything, so, but he definitely,
Starting point is 00:17:53 he said it killed the arrow, and the guys did a good job getting it back right again. Yeah, yeah. I could tell which car was mine, though, when they were hitting Turn Tane over there. He had a one with a big hole. Well, the one with the big,
Starting point is 00:18:02 the one with the helicopter tape all over the front of it. I look it got hit by a scud missile. Hey, with all the spotters that each team has at the Glen, I feel like we had 100. But how much are you even using your fan vision? Just lap times for turn one. That's it?
Starting point is 00:18:20 Yeah, I don't even, after the race starts, really, you don't even, when you're, because you're normally driving off someone else anyway, so you don't even really use your fan vision that much. They put a, there's a fan vision screen on the front stretch that we all watch. As soon as your car goes up through the asses, you're basically just watching the screen on the front stretch like everyone else.
Starting point is 00:18:37 So, because we literally work for probably 25 seconds, if that, and hop on the way. I didn't work that much. I had to figure it out. We were running close to you there for a little bit. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:18:48 For a little while with a big hole in the nose. Spot on, spot off. Bristol Motor Speedway changes the track, polish on the bottom groove to help rubber adhere to it. This is a great spot on, spot off, Josh. I'm pretty neat for this, man. This is because of his Tennessee loyalty. He wants to talk about Bristol.
Starting point is 00:19:04 Spot on for them changing this train. Actually, when I was running Sunday morning, I was like, you know, we go to some tracks that no matter what the product is like, the fans have an affinity to the venue. They have an affinity to the event. These people camped in the middle of this Watkins Glen racetrack. They won't see a car all weekend. They're there for the party. They're there for the experience. They're there to take their family.
Starting point is 00:19:26 Bristol used to be that. It used to be you were a fan of the racetrack. You know, surely you pulled for your favorite driver, but they're trying to get maybe the old Bristol back. So spot on for trying to do something to make it not be. a one group track up against the wall after we've run some laps. I think Bristol's a great racetrack. Unfortunately, some people want to see a wreck track, not a racetrack. I'm going to go spot off still.
Starting point is 00:19:47 I miss the old Bristol where you ran around the bottom. The guy that can make his car turn the best was on the bottom. Because the problem with that is, is when you're running the bottom and you're fast, what do you do when you catch cars? You kept traffic in your path, you know, and you had to almost move them. It's almost the same thing now. do the same thing, but it's against the wall. I miss just kind of racing around the ball.
Starting point is 00:20:09 And there were good races still. Yeah. You know, if we had that with some tire fall off, we could have some really good races there. Yeah, we had no tire fall off in the Xfinity race at Watkins Glen. Elliot's fastest lap of the race was with eight to go. Yeah. That's on good year, man. We had some on Sunday.
Starting point is 00:20:25 Not enough, but we had some. You have to have tire fall off. Man, if you don't have tire fall off, it makes, it just makes, I don't know, it takes a lot of fun out of it to me. It takes a lot of driving out of it. It does, yeah. Need your car to handle well on old tires. But, hey, they're trying something. We'll see.
Starting point is 00:20:40 Two weeks away. Larson's comments on A.J. Omanager. It's your job, Kristen. Your job is to finish this section. Where are we? She's lost. We're in Exaltors.
Starting point is 00:20:52 Gosh, man. Moresville, North Carolina. Yeah. Dirty Moe Radio. Josh, we're done. Door bumper clear. This is the show. Somebody, geez, what the shit?
Starting point is 00:21:02 Spot on. Oh, I don't have that one. You better beep that right there. It's not online. Well, I had notes to mine because sometimes I don't know what the heck you guys are talking about. Who, Josh? Yeah. It was added late.
Starting point is 00:21:15 Oh. I have the early. That's why I bring you a copy. But I need to make notes. Josh. I do research and I do work to make the podcast better. Good Lord. Spot on, spot off.
Starting point is 00:21:28 Larson comments on A.J. Almond dinglinger. Spot all for me because A.J. Almingdinger didn't want. win for my fantasy pick last week. So I don't know what he said, but I like it. He cost me. Did I win with him? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:21:41 I won with him in Sonoma? Yeah, by two spots and I lost with him by two spots. Too by two? So I'll go, I don't know. I mean, I didn't see what they said. Josh told us that payback is coming. So, um, that spot on if it happens. I mean, that's people.
Starting point is 00:22:00 Don't threaten me with a good time. Show it to me, baby. Yeah. You know? I really prefer the, I really prefer the, I don't. I really prefer the don't talk about it, just do it. Yeah, Matt Kenseth kind of deal. Watch this.
Starting point is 00:22:13 Yeah. If a driver says he's going to do it, he's probably not going to do it. Ricky Rudd didn't take no shit. Nobody ever. Touch his car. You're done. Way to go, man. You s shit.
Starting point is 00:22:26 He's got so much editing to do this week. All right, everyone. We're going to take a short break. Hey, Junior Nation. Now more than ever, exclusive, entertaining, and Free content from the world of Dale Earnhardt Jr. is no further away than your fingertips.

So whether you're at home, at work, in the gym, on the run, or just hanging out, Dirty Moor Radio gives Junior Nation its newest and most versatile way yet to plug directly into the world of Earnhardt, anytime, anywhere. Welcome back to Fastlane. So I'm going to give TJ and Brett a topic to debate, and we're going to alternate who goes first.
Starting point is 00:23:11 You guys each get 30 seconds, and whoever got, who went first gets a rebuttal. Whatever TJ just says this week, I'm saying the opposite. I don't care what side he picks. I don't know what the topics even are, but I'm going the opposite way. Here we go. Topics are movies that Brett has never seen. Well, that's not fair. Every movie.
Starting point is 00:23:28 Friday. All right, Brett, you're going first. You ready? Craig, yes. Brad Koslowski got out of his car and apologized for spinning Martin Truex Jr. on Sunday at the Glen on the final lap. Should Brad have lifted and not attempted to go for the position, or should Truex Jr. accept the fact that he was going for the position and racing hard.
Starting point is 00:23:43 Truex should have wrecked the leader and won the race, and then he wouldn't have had to worry about it. He wouldn't have got wrecked for running second. I think the key to the road course racing has been race hard, outbreak. It's the short track mentality come to road course racing. So, man, Martin's got to kind of accept the fact that maybe he was racing Denny a little too nice because they're both Toyotas. Yeah, I mean, I want to disagree, but,
Starting point is 00:24:06 I think Martin could have won that race. And if he wasn't going to win it, if there was one more lap, Brad probably wins that race because he was going to do whatever the means it took to get by them two guys. And I kind of wish Martin had a little bit. Martin's a good clean driver. He's a really good clean driver, but he's lost a handful of victories because he's been too nice to people. Brad would have never passed those two guys on the last lap, not two of them. He could have got one of them and maybe another one in the next lap.
Starting point is 00:24:35 But I don't think there's a way to pass two. two cars that fast when there's only two passing zones i think the first one he and martin get caught up racing each other i don't know denny wins a race second win of the year right had won once since taitona first road course win he almost had sonoma gave away at tony so hell of a race man good race for fans darlington is coming up the first weekend of september almost every team will run a throwback inspired paint scheme if you were racing what would you want your paint scheme to be tj um if i was racing i would you know i i have always always like the Wrangler car. I've really liked the scheme of that car and just how it stood out and
Starting point is 00:25:12 just really, really always thought it was a really pretty and clean car. I want to run the number 10 purulator car for Derek Cote. Tribute. Tribute. Great hair, great, great Daytona 500 win, and I think I can run him now on an exfinity race, so why not? I think I would go track to track with it. If we were going to bristle, I'd run the Black Miller two car. I'd run rusty skiing there, something like that. go to Watkins Glen. I just run maybe like an old Mark Martin scheme or something like that because he dominated there for a while in the 90s as well.
Starting point is 00:25:47 The NASCAR Xfinity series has back-to-back road courses that Glenn to Mid Ohio, in your opinion, should NASCAR look at some separation between the two? No, I think it's great. You know, we've got a lot of things being talked about for next year as far as limiting cup guys in the Xfinity series. There's a lot of things on the table, some of which I don't know the fans have heard or haven't heard,
Starting point is 00:26:05 but I'm all for saying at these road course races, don't let these cup guys do it. They gain an advantage for the next day's race because they're getting in that rhythm, they're learning the course, they're learning the tendencies, and they're also a little bit better probably than the majority of Xfinity guys.
Starting point is 00:26:19 So I think this is awesome to do them back to back. Yeah, road course races have turned out to be some of the most entertaining races we have. So if we've got to run more of them, I mean, I like them. It's not that a way to spot less, but I enjoy the racing. You got guys, that are more aggressive there.
Starting point is 00:26:37 You've got guys that actually show a little aggressive. Like Brad in the last corner, he's like, man, I'm coming after you. I don't care for second or first or whatever. That's a spot and I want it. So, you know, there's not a huge, not as big of a chance of you can actually move people to lower speed and get away with it more than you can a mile and a half. When you look at leaving the glen, some people are mad at other people. If you go to a place like Michigan, they won't pay them back.
Starting point is 00:27:03 You're running 200 miles an hour. you can't mess up your fenders because it'll screw up your car. When you leave the glen and you go to Mid Ohio and that same guy's in your way that just wrecked you last week, you'll move him, you'll dump him. So I'm all for leaving somewhere. You can pay somebody back and go on to the next one. So far, Ryan Blaney is the only full-time Cup Series driver planning to compete at Mid Ohio this weekend. This could be a great opportunity for an Xfinity series regular to capture a victory and a chase berth. Who are some drivers to focus on, T.J.
Starting point is 00:27:31 Oh, wow. You know, I really think, I think our cars will be fast there. Our guys, I think we'll be pretty fast. I don't know. I looked at the entry list and there wasn't a lot of ringers on it. Like there wasn't a lot of, you know, there wasn't obviously Kyle. I don't think Blaney is going to, I think he'll be competitive, but I don't think he's going to be. The cars are really good on road courses, though. Yeah, I think Blaney's still young. I think he's a rookie enough that he's still at these guys level when it comes to road courses. So. Yeah, I mean, when you look at history, the Penske cars have done exceptionally well at these non-companion road courses. I think Elliott's one hell of a road course racer at a place like Sonoma, at a place like in Ohio. Watkins-Gland, we ended up fifth or six. Not one of his better road courses that he runs on, so I think he'll be good. I don't know, man. I really hope that we see one of the JRM guys take it home.
Starting point is 00:28:23 Who's in the 88? Kenny Hibu. Kenny Hibu. Awesome. Go Kenny. Get some solar energy, brother. Yeah, I hope there's a green-white checker. That's all I hope for.
Starting point is 00:28:34 Yeah. I hope our two guys are leading or our three cars are leading. We get away and there's chaos behind it. Be fun to watch. He also got Nelson P.K. Jr. He'll kick you in the. Teeth? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:47 Yeah? You didn't sing that video of that guy? Uh-uh. Oh, Google Nelson P.K. And then Google his dad, they both did it. Like, his dad did an F1, like 107 years ago. And then Nelson P.K. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:59 comes out and, oh, what a wuss. He was going to get into a little, they were going to get into a slap and tickle fight on pit road. Like the chicken man? No, no, no, no. This is way less than that. This is worse. There was no punching in this one.
Starting point is 00:29:12 It was more, not really punching. It was more of like. He tries to kick him in the cahoons? Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, like literally. You don't do that to another dude, right? That's like, dude code.
Starting point is 00:29:22 That's awful. I mean, he tried to kick a 40-yarder. Bite half my ear off. You know? At least chicken man did the DDT. To himself. To himself. Yeah, he took himself out for a month or whatever.
Starting point is 00:29:34 He gave himself a concussion. The off-the-wall topic. Let's be honest. That wasn't his first concussion. That guy's never hit anything. What are you talking about? Get the baseline test him at five years old. I'd be like, Zach Spies drive-thru?
Starting point is 00:29:49 I'm going to check my mirror here. Make sure this chicken man ain't coming. Coming in hot. Tim Tebow is hosting a workout for Major League Baseball teams. he has not played baseball since his junior year of high school. At what point do you say, hang up the cleats? Or do you think Tim could make the roster for an MLV team? Brett?
Starting point is 00:30:06 Tim Tebow is God's gift to college football. So if he wants to try to go be a baseball player, I want him to go be a baseball player. He'll be better than Michael Jordan was. So go Timmy. Timmy, let's say a prayer. I'm going to say a prayer for you tonight. I mean, he's the most famous white Broncos since O.J. did that deal running away from the cops in L.A.
Starting point is 00:30:26 Wow. I'm going with Tim Tebow to make an MLB single 18. Is that a Bill's joke? I mean, I'm just surprised. The way it goes to literally now, they may as well just make up a high school pass or some school pass. I mean, just let them play in a Little League World Series
Starting point is 00:30:46 like most of these people anyway. So I don't know. I know Brett's a big Tebow fan. So, yeah. I met him on the sidelines at a South Carolina game and he was wearing a baby blue suit. Ew. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:00 He's six, four. He's got his guns out. You see his guns coming through the suit. Does he like long walks on the beach, too? Who are you more in love with, Justin Bieber or Tim Tebow? At this moment, Tim Tebow. Good Lord, man. Man, dude, this guy, I'm telling you, Josh.
Starting point is 00:31:15 I'm going to Photoshop a picture of, you couldn't beat this guy in a college football game if you tried. He just ran over you. Like a locomotive. Or he shot a free throw for a touchdown. Just jump pass. Yeah. man, dude.
Starting point is 00:31:27 One of an NFL playoff game. No Bronco quarterback done that since Elway. You really think he's going to play in the major league baseball? I don't care. He's tentative. I love that guy. He doesn't care. As long as there's pictures of him out there on the internet and then baseball
Starting point is 00:31:39 series, man. He could have been a little bit nicer to me. You know, he kind of heismaned me a little bit when I walked up to him. Whatever, dude. Did you have the beard? Nah. I didn't have a beard. Maybe I needed the beard.
Starting point is 00:31:50 Yeah, maybe you like the beard. I look too old with this beard. No, you don't because there's no gray in it. There's a little gray over here. Yeah. But here on the chair. Chin, your goatee area, it's perfectly red. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:31:58 Nothing like a good red chin. Nice ginge. Yes. Ginge chin. We, I love how he says we here. Josh picked some questions. So wait, are you ginger? Not really up here.
Starting point is 00:32:13 No, just his face. I was a blonde when I was little. I don't know what I have. Do you have a soul or not? Because there's, I don't know. I'm just saying they said ginges don't have souls. Isn't it only 1% of the population has red hair? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:26 So you're the 1%. Yeah, I only have red air on my chin. What's that mean? I don't know. So producer Josh has picked some hashtag ASDBC questions from Twitter and Facebook, and here we go. Ask Pregame Nge asked how meaningless is post-race geometry inspection if NASCAR doesn't care if you destroy the rear end during burnouts? That's kind of self-explanatory right there. Pretty meaningless.
Starting point is 00:32:51 Pretty meaningless, bud. Yeah. Great question. You answered it yourself. Yeah. I miss the days where your car was nice after the race, and it meant something to finish the race in one piece rather than this hole. Oh, I won the race. I got to destroy my car now. There was a time when we didn't have the resources that we have, and you literally wouldn't do a burnout because you didn't want to mess up your motor. You wanted to go back and rebuild that motor and be able to run it in the next week or two.
Starting point is 00:33:17 Now we've got so many resources on the engineering side, on the body chassis side, on the engine side. We just win and just destroy the. car. The bodies were the same way. If you had a good speedway, you know, a good body for a mile and a half car, you didn't want to
Starting point is 00:33:34 tear it up. No, because you didn't have all these laser ways to rebuild it and put it back just like it was. When you had your favorite car, that was your favorite car until you wrecked it, literally. Well, let's be honest, so they, the reason why they're not going to, it's not that the, there's a lot
Starting point is 00:33:49 of trick stuff going on and the things move around a lot during the race back there and they're not going to line up after the race. So the only way to really prevent that from being measured correctly is to just tear it up. And you don't need this car again ever. Yeah, we're done with it for this year. We're done until next July. So who cares?
Starting point is 00:34:08 Yeah. At Tree, Travis C. Underscore 40 asks, if you were asked to host Saturday Night Live, would you accept and what would your opening monologue sound like? I think I did mine opening this show. Yeah, you did. Some of that's not going to make it to the actual show that's released. Josh, you can't edit out on my... I can. I can.
Starting point is 00:34:27 You can't edit Brett. That's the essence of who he is. That's why they asked me to do this show, Josh. It's because of my... Winning Presidality. I'm not going to, like, be fake. Would it be bad? I think you call that no filter?
Starting point is 00:34:40 Hashtag. Would it be bad to, like, come out and do, like, some sort of Andrew Dice Clay type thing? Probably. I mean, that would be, like, from back in the day. Would you put on parachute pants? Like MC Hammer? Yeah. I would.
Starting point is 00:34:51 I got some. You still have parachute pants? Yeah. I got some with sequins on them. You may bring them next week? You better walk in with those on. Yeah, it'll be a little tight. I'd bring out some Andrew Dice Clay or something.
Starting point is 00:35:02 Jack and Joe and up to hill. You're such an idiot. At Tim Brock 88 asked, does NASCAR approve pit road tire guns or can teams make them to their own spec? I think they have to be within a certain limit, don't they? I don't know. Remember the whole controversy with the magic guns at Gibbs?
Starting point is 00:35:21 They still got it going on. Yeah, because they turn like 4 billion RPNs, and all they do is hit the lug nut. If the air gun looked at the lug nut, it spun itself on. I tried to get Jason Brownlow to come on the show to talk about it, because he's a NASCAR official. I think if TJ and I comment on this, we put ourselves in a position to be in trouble.
Starting point is 00:35:38 I really don't know the answer to it. I don't know the answer to it. AU 98 asked, do you think Jogub's Racing used wipers just to make people wonder if it helps or not? Here's what they did. They went to a wind tunnel. Every team did. And they put windshield wipers on,
Starting point is 00:35:53 and they took windshield wipers off. Some teams showed gains in downforce by a couple points. Some showed loss. Some showed nothing. So Gibbs apparently showed a little bit of gain. They ran the wipers. I don't know if the wipers helped or not, but they sure this hell didn't hurt because those cars were stupid fast all weekend.
Starting point is 00:36:11 Yeah. I mean, if it's a minimal gain, why not run it? Take it. Yeah. Who cares with one kind of downforce? If it's more, it's more. It's more. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:21 At Justin Vemak asks, Who has the better athletic name, name Bolt or Steel Johnson. Steel Johnson doesn't sound like an athletic name. It sounds like a... That's a vivid vow. What's it sound like, Kristen? A school teacher.
Starting point is 00:36:34 Oh, yes, she's a teacher. Really? Yeah. And you get on us. I don't get on you. What up Steel? You are bad. I didn't mean to say that.
Starting point is 00:36:46 You'd smother you if she got on you. Oh, geez, oh man. Oh, man. You are bad. This day. What happened? T.J's actually got a funny saying about when you're the same height. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:36:59 Well. But it doesn't make sense. He doesn't have the balls to say it right. No, it's the standing up laying down thing. Yeah, we're all the same height laying down. No, we're not. You can't say that all this show. Bebe it out.
Starting point is 00:37:10 No, that's stand. We're all the same height laying down. He says that all the time. Not really. But it doesn't make sense. You can't say Steele Johnson. Josh said it. That's an Olympic diver's name.
Starting point is 00:37:28 It's steal John. So he's in Speedos, too. The dude's in Speedos as well. I don't know. I don't want to buy steal my Johnson, so I'm going to do Zane Bo. Go ahead, boat. We can't even go into predictions
Starting point is 00:37:42 because it's an off weekend. Josh. Yeah, but you can talk about it. No, we don't all talk about it. That's pretty funny, actually. It has a better athletic name. Usain Bolt. Jimmy Vermomack.
Starting point is 00:37:53 Jimmy Vomach. Jimmy Vmock. What's the other guy that has? has a really good name. Willpower. Yeah. That's actually a pretty cool name. Is Brendan gone?
Starting point is 00:38:04 Derek, nope. You know John alone? What happened to this podcast? It exploded. It all went downhill when you said Steel Johnson doesn't sound like an Olympic name. What Olympics you watch? What time did they come home is a better question? Or is he poled?
Starting point is 00:38:26 Volvoting? I hope the people listening to this show today have a wonderful sense of humor and are a little bit on the corrupt side. Maybe I've had a drink. And there's a good chance. Y'all are never going to hear this podcast again. It's probably going to get pulled and it's probably all of our faults. We'll start with blaming Kristen.
Starting point is 00:38:47 If you could be a superhero, what superhero would you be in why? Steal Johnson. Jesus. Why would you want to be Jesus? Oh, my God. Is it time for this to end? This is our shortest podcast ever because of the awkwardness of it. So, great.
Starting point is 00:39:05 Okay. Thanks for the memories. We're not going to name any sponsors to close the show out because we know that the association levels right now are low. Is it hot in here? No, it's not. Yep. We need ceiling fans. We swing from them.
Starting point is 00:39:22 Oh, man. You ever rant or was that the rant? Josh. You got to filter these questions. I got to say, though. You didn't pee once during this podcast. I like that one. That was good.
Starting point is 00:39:32 I didn't pee once. Uh-uh. Normally we're at it. Dehydrated. Yeah. And that one time you had that food from something, you were going on a cleanse. Yeah. Yeah, that cleanse thing.
Starting point is 00:39:40 I need to do that again. You don't want to do it with me? No. No. It'll help your hives. Will it? The cleaners here hated that day from you. Dude, it's easy.
Starting point is 00:39:49 Just drink green drinks. Oh, yeah. Sounds horrible. Mountain do. I like to shoot my food. Diet do, what you want. Yeah. You can do that too, I guess.
Starting point is 00:40:00 There's... All right, well... I think that's why you tore your ACL. It was the green stuff. I'm leaving here. So I got hurt seven weeks ago, playing volleyball with Clint at the... Training camps? Training camp.
Starting point is 00:40:12 So I've been going off and on to the doctor and the therapist. So two doctors came to Elliott's bus Sunday morning, North Carolina guys. They're like, you got a torn ACL. So I'm going to have an MRI today to find out what I do. Dr. Bill, Dr. Bill, Dr. Ken. They're great. I got our great. When I had a stress fracture, doctor...
Starting point is 00:40:28 Dr. Bill was my doctor. Yeah. So teams pay to have these guys come out and be support. So when you see an injury in an NFL deal, you see guys run out. They work for the team, you know. So these guys are brought in as kind of independent contractors to support the teams. Stretch them out, check them out, make sure they're good. So they came and checked me out and said I'm not good.
Starting point is 00:40:49 Still, after seven weeks? I got ACL. This is going to be. I know, but I thought that was an eight-week deal for recovery time. That's the hamstring. Not the ACL. ACL's in your knee. That's going to be, that'll be my rant.
Starting point is 00:41:00 Why don't you swim? Why do so many people tear their ACL stuff in training camp? I don't know. You think they sit on the couch too long and then try to get hit too hard the first week of training camp? I don't know. Your knees are. It's very sensitive. I know, but I mean, it seems like every year.
Starting point is 00:41:15 You could fall off the curb and tear it. Yeah. You could twist it. I mean, I twisted it. I think they should get rid of almost training camp stuff and half the preseason games. Preseason games are a joke. Well, they are. On Sunday.
Starting point is 00:41:28 I don't mind a couple just to get your depth chart. You're going to play some second and third string guys. The starters don't need that. But if you've got a position battle or something, but. They don't need four games. No. And they make the PSL guys pay for the tickets, generate more money. Yeah, that's not.
Starting point is 00:41:43 Yeah. Well, I don't know. I just, I hate, I almost hate scrolling Twitter with you're an NFL fan this time in the year because you're reading about, like, all these rookies that come out, like the bills have had one that's partially torn. Yeah. Dante Fowler or whatever. he tore his last year, I think.
Starting point is 00:41:59 Seven months, man. Yeah. So you're saying there shouldn't be any training camp? I don't know if it's training camp. Maybe they should come in and just do more seasoning stuff. Like, let's get your body back in shape more. Like, Lowry's seasoning? Like you put on fries.
Starting point is 00:42:13 Yeah. Something like that. Like Lowry. I love that stuff. But they're working out in the off season. Are they? They should be. That's what I'm saying.
Starting point is 00:42:22 Are they really, though? They should be mandated by their team to have workouts. Yeah, I don't know they... I hate injuries when it doesn't mean anything. Yeah. You know, I hate a guy tearing his ACL in a practice snap. Yeah. And you can't, you know, and it's not, it doesn't even matter.
Starting point is 00:42:39 So. Kristen, I saw you tweeted this morning about your dating life. How's that going? Yeah. A lot of people, mingle. A lot of people tweet me frequently trying to get an end. I appreciate the concern that everyone has for me. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:53 Yeah. So what's the status? Does anyone have just like a room she can stay in with nothing in it? Like no gluten or anything? You can like feed her to. No gluten-free room. I was like, where is this going? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:43:04 Because she's got a lot of... Sounds like you're getting held hostage. She needs to be. Look at her. Yeah. I know. Well, today I go to the allergist for the full consult for four hours. As Brett would say, this comes down to life choices.
Starting point is 00:43:17 Well, I'm making great life choices. Look how happy I am. Look how happy I am. This is her third show in a row. She is making great choices recently. You're glowing with half. happiness right now. You're glowing with hives. We have feared for you to be in a car wreck. We have feared for you in the ER. We have feared for you in the care center. We were scrolling news one day.
Starting point is 00:43:35 Speaking of doctors, Ortho Carolina, the infield care center doctors are amazing at track. I wouldn't know I make better life choices. Right. They're different every week. You know that right. Yeah. But they're, well. Well, you've seen them all. You knew that. I know. They come in, I walk into the media center and we were in Indy and one of the doctors comes up to me and like, Kristen, how are your hives doing? I'm like, oh, dear God. How do you remember me? It is. That's when, I mean. But they're super loud and they were great.
Starting point is 00:44:01 Are you breaking out from latex or is it from gluten? There could be anything at this point. I'm never eating again. She's allergic to latex. I am. So like latex is in sports bras and like stuff like that. It's in gloves. It's in.
Starting point is 00:44:14 When you cook. You cook with gloves on. The people at the restaurants. Oh. Yeah. So my mom is also allergic. She got a facial. Who else?
Starting point is 00:44:25 I'd like to thank our sponsors and please leave the studio and take your dog with you. We have not done our picks yet. It's an off weekend jackass. Oh, okay. No, sorry. Sorry. You don't have to beep ass. Yeah. All right, love you guys.
