Starting point is 00:01:07 Outside, door, bumper, clear of the 18th. Best car I had here in a long time. You're going to do it. You're going to win it. Right with you. You're clear. Check the flag. You win.
Starting point is 00:01:17 Oh, yeah! Hey, everybody. I'm T.J. Majors. Spotter of the 22 Cup car. I had a 25 truck this week. Truck racer. Truck racing. Brett Griffin, Spotter, Clint Boyer,
Starting point is 00:01:32 Elliott, Sattler, Miat Snyder, Triple-Dud. last weekend. You got to be tired. I'm not in that good a shape. Welcome to the real world. Yeah. Thanks to OneMay Financial for bringing this to you guys. We have another super sub at co-host.
Starting point is 00:01:47 Yep, this is going to be a good one. It's always good. I'm Natalie, Digital Media here at Dirty Mo Media, Junior Motorsports, filling in for the lovely Miss Casey, who's up in Pennsylvania. Digital Natalie's here. I wonder what she's doing now, planting another tree. Oh, my gosh. Where are you, Casey?
Starting point is 00:02:05 Busy working. This is work. That's true. I saw her at the racetrack. I did too. She gave me a ride for 75 yards on a golf cart. Was that before, after she crashed it? She crashed a golf cart? Oh.
Starting point is 00:02:18 Making note to that, Jason. We need that for next week's show. All right. Yep, making note of that. It was on her, I think it was on her Instagram story, I thought. Really? Wow. She had like five guys working on it.
Starting point is 00:02:30 You got details? I don't know. I doubt it's still on there because it would have been from Saturday. Yeah. Let me see. I can pull it up. But yeah, I don't think so. That's on the gram.
Starting point is 00:02:39 On the gram. You got to get on the gram, Brett. I don't get it. You are on the gram. I don't know how to do it. How is your weekend, Natalie? It was good. TJ's got some dirt on Natalie for the weekend.
Starting point is 00:02:50 I don't have any dirt on you. I was going to say, I didn't do anything. There's no dirt on you. There's always dirt on Natalie. I went to dinner on Friday and then watched Carson Ellage race in her midget debut in Green Valley, actually where I've raced there before. And she did good. And then I watched my other Carson race in Sharon,
Starting point is 00:03:14 which Blaney owns, Dave Blaney owns that race track. And he almost won. He ran second. First loser. I know. That's actually what I told him. I did that twice this weekend. Damn it, Brett.
Starting point is 00:03:27 That's close. Sharon's not that far. How can you drive on? I'm going there. I go this weekend. He races at Aldora. So I'll go there Wednesday night. And then he's racing someone else's car, so he has to get his, he has to put his seat in Thursday and then he'll race.
Starting point is 00:03:39 Which El Dora races this one? The World of Outlaws. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Just a regular World of Altla. You set a show. Yeah, okay. Not like the Kings Royal or anything.
Starting point is 00:03:47 That's not till later this year. That's a cool place. If you've never been to El Dora, go. I've been three times, I think. That's awesome. Yeah. For the truck race? No, I've never been to the truck race.
Starting point is 00:03:58 I'm not a big fan of the trucks on dirt. Like, I think it's a lot of hype. I think it's cool. They did it midweek. You know, but for whatever. reason they don't put on the show they don't pass as much as you know super dirt late models and sprint cars and world outlaws i mean i grew up going to dirt racing that's what i grew up around so a big fan of that uh and i think it's cool for trucks to go don't get me wrong they need to keep going there
Starting point is 00:04:19 it's not that it's just they don't they don't put on the show on dirt that these other dirt cars put on on dirt no it's just a lot different handling and everything yeah i think it's cool they go there just because some of our guys look like they have never been on dirt before because some of them haven't, which makes it exciting. It does make it funny. So it's hard for them guys to be really consistent there, but a couple of the guys have made it tough to really watch now because Matt Crafton has a dirt car that he goes and runs to practice for this.
Starting point is 00:04:49 You know, he's got. And he runs at like Martinsville. He runs right around the bottom, you know, breaking straight. He doesn't pitch it over on the right rear. He doesn't make it exciting. Yeah. He makes it boring. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:59 You got to hang it out there. Ride that. See, that's what I want to watch. Yeah, I want to watch these kids. Like, I want to see John Hunter drive it off in there. You know, he's not going to run the bottom. Yeah. Rip the lip.
Starting point is 00:05:10 I've been to the dream. I've been a prelude to the dream. That's good race too. Yeah, real good. But it's a, it's tough to go and spot it. It almost. I was wondering if they have spotters. They do.
Starting point is 00:05:22 Yeah, we spotters. They shouldn't. They really shouldn't. I agree. Like, in true dirt format, they should not have spotters. I would. The track's not that big. Yeah, but this isn't, you're not taking true dirt guys and putting them on dirt either.
Starting point is 00:05:32 These guys are, there's more... But they have mirrors. In a dirt car, you do not have mirrors. I think we're spotters help, though, in that race. You just said a lot of these guys drive straight. He said that. I didn't say that. I said Matt Crafton drives straight.
Starting point is 00:05:46 I didn't say a lot of guys. I do think spotters are important there in only one reason. Because the flow of the race, we can get them lined up quicker. We can get them by green quicker. Like from the racing perspective, I wish when you said green, you're right that you wouldn't have them. Honestly, we don't really... Because we make it safer. We don't, that's what I'm.
Starting point is 00:06:02 I'm saying, honestly, we don't really do a whole lot of clearing during the race because you're not racing side by side a whole lot. Where do you stand on the deal in the infield? Middle and three and four up on the top. Right where all the dirt slings on you. Yeah. So, but basically for safety reasons, though, because there's so many guys that spin out and don't really know where they're going. I think it's, I think you do think you need spotters. I get for that, but, excuse me, but for the actual racing, I think it should.
Starting point is 00:06:30 You're not doing a whole lot. But you're helping a little bit. But honestly, if your guy doesn't have a dirt background, he looks like a fish out of water anyway. It's cool to watch guys like Friesen and all those guys. He is going to be, he'll be, I would, that'd be probably my pick. Didn't they move the Eldora race this year? I don't know.
Starting point is 00:06:49 It's not Wednesday before Indy, is it? It's before New Hampshire or after New Hampshire. Why? One of them. I don't know, because Indy's not in July anymore. It's so bad I won't be able to make it. You're not going this year? I don't really doubt it.
Starting point is 00:07:02 I don't think I can make it. My problem is going. If it rains out and they want to run it the next night, you're in trouble. Oh, so I have a real. Oh, gosh, okay, I cannot forget to you. So I have a really, really good buddy of mine. His name is Matt Geese. He works for Ed Carpenter.
Starting point is 00:07:21 And he loves Doorbumpur-Clear. Oh, sweet. And it's just funny because I got to show you his picture. Y'all are going to die. He's like this big, he reminds me of you a little bit, like, I don't even know. Super big. It's big, whatever. Super cute, super fun.
Starting point is 00:07:34 This is him and his little boy. I mean, he's redneck. He used to work on Craig Kinzer Sprint Car, so I've known him since I was like 16. He definitely looks redneck. Well, he calls me on... Look at that tan line. It looks like Scott Blumgwick. Yeah, he calls me on Saturday.
Starting point is 00:07:47 Just so you know, she said that remind, you remind her. Just see you, now this guy was 100 more pounds than me. His demeanor, his demeanor, his demeanor. He goes, is Brett coming? He asked me if I was going to the brickyard, and he goes, I want to go have a beer with Brett Griffin. I said you two would be fricking trouble. Beers. Beer should never be singular. Yeah. Would be absolute trouble.
Starting point is 00:08:08 So I said, I go, I'm, you know, I'll talk to him about it and see if he can make it happen. Absolutely. You guys would be trouble together. I just find it funny that that that's the guy that I want. I want him. No, like demeanor. Oh, no. Not looks. Matt's a lot taller and bigger than you. I want him on my team if a fight breaks out. I can tell you that. He looked like a big dude. Yeah, he looked like Andre de
Starting point is 00:08:26 a giant. Speaking of fights. See the Hickory fight? Oh, he did. Did you see all the pictures? Did you see the video? No, I didn't see the video, but that Andy Marquise or whatever. Lay model race. Oh, yeah. Apparently, they take the, they took the white flag. Brandon Setzer goes down in turn one, super late on my race, bumps Raphael Assard and drives for Kyle Busch.
Starting point is 00:08:51 Bumps them up out of the way. They come off the corner. They're like this off the corner still, so he just kind of nudged him. Door to door. And then he lets him clear him into three and just drives under him and punts him. I mean, it hits him hard and just wrecks him. So after the race, Brandon Hester goes on, he parks behind his hauler, gets out,
Starting point is 00:09:07 and starts sprinting like Clint at Phoenix. Yeah. Towards that guy's holler. He runs in there and does one of them, you know when you're running in PubG and you jump and hit the punch button? Yeah. He goes in there and does like, he goes in there and does one of those flying punch things into there.
Starting point is 00:09:21 Yeah. And the crew chief guy gets a hold of him. And next thing you know, he looked like that dude in that pitcher now. He just showed you. Yeah. And he starts swinging. So then they get broke up.
Starting point is 00:09:31 But, yeah, it was, I think I got a link for it. We had a team owner getting knocked out this weekend at the racetrack, too. That's true. Yeah. Who? Had a hat away or something? He's not an owl. He owns two Xfinity cars and a broken jaw.
Starting point is 00:09:44 Why do you get knocked out? Running that mouth. That'll happen. That's the number one thing that'll get your ass in trouble is your mouth. Okay. I have an opinion or a question for you guys. I mean, if you walk him and punch somebody, you're probably getting in trouble. So, as a female in the industry, even from when I,
Starting point is 00:10:01 I used to drive. I used to say if I'm going to run my mouth like a man, I should be treated like a man if I deserve that. No. You know, bull crap. So if I'm up there, I want your opinion. Pop you in the mouth, Natalie, too pretty for that. Well, but there's some girls out there that absolutely run their mouths that sometimes deserve it.
Starting point is 00:10:18 Like, if you're going to be able to fight like a man, you should be able to take a hit like a man. You can't have a guy hitting the girl. I disagree. They did back in the day. I mean, she would have to come at me with like some sort of weapon. Yeah, but if she's going to come at. Like, I'm not talking about, like, she comes swinging all she wants. I mean, you can, she'll be able to hold a woman back from getting to you.
Starting point is 00:10:39 Now, if this goes on for a long time and you just finally, I mean, I. There comes a point, but I don't know. That's just my opinion. And I'm a girl. Well, this crew guy broke this dude's jaw. And he went to the hospital and the other dude went to jail. Seriously? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:10:55 Yeah, they got the fighting. TJ's got a video of the wreck of the fight and Hickory. Oh. Spin move. Spin move on the first guy. Hey, Maker. Did you see him jump in there? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:11:06 Oh, he's outnumbered by a lot. Yeah, he didn't really go in there. Look at the guy gimp in behind him in the gray shirt. What did you type in so these people can watch this? It was a private wing, so. Oh, we'll just tweet it out then. If you go to Andy, let me see how to spell his name on Facebook. He's got like.
Starting point is 00:11:25 Matt Weaver has some pictures and stuff too. Okay. Yeah. I was on my Facebook. Like a little timeline. of how it went down. Matt Weaver does a good job. Matt Weaver does an awesome job for covering the grassroots stuff.
Starting point is 00:11:36 Yeah. And just off-the-wall stories as well. Yeah. So he does a really good job. I took a shot with Bob Pockers this weekend. What? Yeah, we took a pickleback together. I was he Bob drinks?
Starting point is 00:11:49 We did a pickleback. What is it pickleback? I was in the sports bar watching playoff hockey. Freddie, buddy of mine's a big fan. Shana that works here is a big fan. I still don't really understand hockey, but they said we were going to grab some beers and chicken wings, and I'm down with that. So anyway, in walks Pocrys, and I didn't think he'd take it. I was like, man, you'll take a pickleback?
Starting point is 00:12:10 He's like, yeah, and I was like, now I've got to take a pickleback. But what's a pickleback? It's Jameson, and you chase it with pickle juice. Oh, yum. I love pickle juice, but I don't know if I could do Jamison. You could. Haven't you ever had frozen pickle juice? Pockis is the man.
Starting point is 00:12:26 Holy cow. Yeah. I didn't even say it. anything. You are nuts. Me? I think he's thinking about that old saying about pickles and girls. Don't you ever look at me and say that.
Starting point is 00:12:45 What's the old saying? Do I ever want to know? Okay, let's come into Spot on. I'm not saying. If I'm not saying it, you know it's. Oh, that is real bad. A lot of being off the air. Like from cut right here, you can't say, don't you like pickle juice?
Starting point is 00:13:02 I mean, God. You're crazy. Holy cow! I couldn't even look at you. I was like, oh my gosh. You say that? Okay, now that I'm having an asthma attack, let's go spot on spot up. You have asthma?
Starting point is 00:13:21 Really bad. I thought I saw you inhaling something one time, an inhaler. Yeah, I cannot leave my house without my inhaler. Really? I have one by my bed, yeah. I have one by my bed in my truck, in my purse. Sounds like epipans with me. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:13:35 Yeah, it's a serious deal. You need to switch to obvi-cues. They're better. That's what I have. Are those the cheaper ones? No, they're just the compact ones. They got voice instructions and the needle goes in and comes back. So you don't have to worry about lacerating your kid's legs, which is a big deal.
Starting point is 00:13:51 You inject them. They move and it's like, uh-oh. As soon as you pull the plastic off, this like digital woman starts saying, place against dye. Oh, that's nice. It tells you exactly what to do. I think they should use your voice for that. I think they should use Natalie.
Starting point is 00:14:05 Move the orange tab. Place it. What about... Against your leg. Who's that actor that has that really awesome voice? Oh, the... Morgan Freeman. There we go.
Starting point is 00:14:17 Yes. That's exactly that's right. I was like, he's got all the freckles or whatever. How awesome would it be? How awesome would it be? That would be really cool. He played God in like how many movies. Remove tab.
Starting point is 00:14:27 Yeah. Okay. Spot on, spot off. Did you see the chick that was on Saturday Night Live this week? No. Oh. Stormy. The pornistar girl.
Starting point is 00:14:36 The porn star Stormy Daniels, right? Yeah, she was on Saturday Night Live. Ugh. I wanted to vomit. Yeah. Why? Gross. I didn't see her, but what?
Starting point is 00:14:43 I mean, she's just trying to monetize. There's a thing. I went through and found some new sound effects this week. You should use that randomly, man. There you go. Yeah, I've got some random ones. Well, that's what I did when I heard her on. She says pickle juice, you hit the button.
Starting point is 00:14:58 I was, I thought of it afterwards too late. Anyway, sorry. What's wrong with her? It's just stupid. Yes. I would agree. She's just trying to do it for attention. It's just like.
Starting point is 00:15:07 Oh, yeah, I agree 100%. Like it's a publicity stunt. That's what it is. That's me. I mean, she's trying to monetize the fact that money, which I guess she was already monetizing it. She'd already used her bottom to the top. Why do we even care what happened with this? I don't care.
Starting point is 00:15:21 I care more about him making relations with foreign countries and stuff like that. Why can't they get it's funny? You just use the word relations. I know. I did it on purpose. That's what those relations are. Why she's on TV. We don't care about those relations.
Starting point is 00:15:37 At least there's no cigar story in the Oval Office. That one was even worse. What's wrong with these people? Okay. We ready for a third time? Yeah, we're ready. Sorry. Okay.
Starting point is 00:15:47 Spot on, spot off. Kevin Harvick has won four out of the 11 races to begin 2018, Brett. Spot on. You know, you look at yesterday's race, and it was almost like his to lose. He was that good. And we had a restart there prior to the run. rain delay and TJ was up front on two tires and we were behind those guys. We restarted six, drove to third, got second and Lugano was literally driving as hard as anybody could drive at Dover
Starting point is 00:16:17 and the four still drove around him. And then we had the rain delay. Kevin restarted right behind us and he drove right back by us. Like he just, he was in a completely different class and I think his wins have kind of been that way. When you look at Atlanta and he just, it's been lights out once that guy gets lead. I'm always spot on for when people, you know, do the work on their, and dominate races like that. If you earn it, you earn it, you know. And, yeah, I'm, I'm always spot on for that. Do you think him and Rodney are the next Jimmy and Chad? I don't think they have time, you know, and I guess I could be wrong about that, but Harvick's like 43 years old, 44. You got to remember, though. I don't, I don't think you can pair them. Because Jimmy, they,
Starting point is 00:17:02 They're for a while. Jimmy won 10 races a year. Yeah. 10. And seven championships. That is five championships in a row. That's almost a third of the schedule. Yeah. Like, that's ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:17:14 Yeah. So I don't think they're quite to that level, but they're definitely, ever since they've been paired together, they've been great. How is Jimmy Johnson? Harvick's 42. Yeah. Jimmy's like the same age. 42.
Starting point is 00:17:27 Yeah, okay. So when you look at the question that you ask me, can they be the next Jimmy and chat? I don't think there's enough time. I would agree with you on that. If he were 32, I'd tell you, yes, there's a chance. You know, he's got his championship. He's obviously got a lot of wins, including Daytona 500. So, I mean, the career, he's a Hall of Fame guy, the lights out guy.
Starting point is 00:17:44 But I don't think you can say he's the next. That's the next Jimmy Chad. Yeah. So Justin Algear wins in J.R.M.1-2 finish. Spot-on, spot off, T.J. I thought it was a good race. I'll spot on any time. I think the last month of Xfinity races have been great.
Starting point is 00:17:59 you've seen guys battling hard for wins and it's been it's been real races like good races like you didn't have just somebody out front battling we weren't watching these two guys race for a second you know straight away behind the guy that was going to win the race these two guys were racing for the trophy and you know the extra money on the line
Starting point is 00:18:20 you know it's just cherry on top for all that so I don't I would have been honestly any one of them guys could have won the race and I'd have been spot on. Spot off. That just sucked. And I've never really said this because it's never really been this way, because we've never been in this position.
Starting point is 00:18:40 But I really wanted to win for all the one main financial people that were there. We had a lot of sea level guys there, and they obviously sponsored the race. They're there to support Elliot. They've all got their one main shirts on, and it was kind of a heartbreaking just to not win it for them. You know, Elliot's been fortunate to win some races in his career. I think this would have ranked up there among the highest emotionally for him just because all those guys that are there. Because if they don't love racing and they don't support racing, we don't race. I mean, you guys know that.
Starting point is 00:19:07 Sponsors are a big deal. So I'm glad Justin won it. I'm glad J.R.M. won it, but spot off because I wanted us to win it. How did you get a much better finish than that, though? You don't. I mean, it was a true natural finish to the race. And, you know, I'm sure those people enjoyed the race either way. It was exciting for them.
Starting point is 00:19:25 And, you know, they leave saying the same thing. oh, we're heartbroken for you guys. You were so close. We wanted you to win. And I'm like, yeah, but we wanted to win for you guys. Yeah, exactly. But you know they were cheering. Oh, yeah.
Starting point is 00:19:34 At least they enjoyed the entire race to the last corner. Right. It could have been a lot worse. Yeah. Oh, yeah. It was awesome. You know, it was fun. It been cool taking pictures with them afterwards, but, you know.
Starting point is 00:19:46 Elliot made the comment in the media center after that, you know, somebody asked him as JRM the best team in the Xfinity series right now. And he said, yeah. And he said, compare us head to head with gifts. you know, like take Justin and match them up with Jones or me against Bell or, you know what I mean? So I think when, and it clearly, you know, you got to play that game a little bit too. You're not going to say you're not as good as they are. But I think mathematically right now, we legitimately are.
Starting point is 00:20:10 So literally. Oh, here we go. Noah Gregson wins, excuse me, Noah Gregson crashes while battling solder for the truck win. He did not win. Here's the thing. Like you look at the truck race and it's the last lap attempt at a power. pass that ends in a crash. You look at the exfinity race, last lap attempt at a pass, that they both could have crashed
Starting point is 00:20:33 and didn't. Like, the racing in these lower series, the product is arguably the best I've ever seen it. So whatever we're doing, keep doing it. The fact that this guy crashed himself, T.J., he runs Sauter in the fence off a two. Then he chopped him off a four, solder hit him in the butt. And literally he couldn't help but hit him in the butt. That's how close to that shot was. Then going out of backstretch, he hits him once.
Starting point is 00:20:55 he gathers it up, he hits him again, and he wrecks himself. Like, at some point, you got to realize I'm being too aggressive. Spot off. Spot off for him consistently screwing up. And spot on for the entertainment factor for all of us watching because I couldn't spot my truck for watching what this guy was doing. I got to go spot on for him trying. This is the series where you learn that stuff.
Starting point is 00:21:21 This is where you do it. He went to the Exfini series the last two or three weeks or whatever, Had to help him. And he drove, he didn't look like no rookie to me. He didn't look like a rookie to me. So I think, look, man, it's just a kid going for the win, man, trying to advance his career against the guy that's already had a career for a long time. So this is the series where you expect stuff like that to happen.
Starting point is 00:21:48 I mean, I don't blame him for going for it. And Johnny's got to know who he's racing too. And Johnny's been in his fair share of, instances like that where he's been into people and stuff. So, you know, spot on for him trying, spot on for the finish of the race. We were all watching. Both of these scenarios, both of these scenarios are probably happening because of the rule that all these cup guys can't come down to these series.
Starting point is 00:22:12 If Kyle Busch was in this race in the trucks, probably wouldn't have seen this. If Larson and Blaney and all those guys are in this exfinity race, good chance we wouldn't have seen that. So, again, the product in these lower series right now is phenomenal. I like the, I saw a lot of polls and stuff. People are posting for, do you like cup guys? What kind of polls? Shiny ones.
Starting point is 00:22:35 So. Baby powder of gasoline. Oh. Tiggle juice. Man. A lot of people are like, the one that was, you know, the most favorite was the, like the, they like the current schedule there on where you can run majority of race than none of the championship race, which I kind of like. So that gives you an opportunity to sell. to your sponsors a handful of races still, you know, not interfere with the dash for cash races,
Starting point is 00:22:58 which I hope keeps going. And, you know, it doesn't mess up your championship in the end of the year. That's what cash is fun. I mean, it's like the Winston Million used to be. I mean, there's a lot of hype around it. I think it gives team something to shoot for. And it gives our purses the opportunity to be a little better. I mean, as we all know, we don't.
Starting point is 00:23:13 I've seen guys drive differently because of it. Yeah. I've seen, I've seen the intensity pick up. I saw Daniel Hemrick be more aggressive than I've ever seen him be. So. Well, this one's been all over. Spot on, spot off. Spencer Gallagher suspended after failing a drug test.
Starting point is 00:23:30 Brett, I'm going to give you this one first because you had sent it in the group me. Man, it's heartbreaking. So explain it to me or explain to the fans that may not know, when do they give them the drug test? How do they know to give it to them? How does that whole thing work? So the drivers and the crew guys can be drug tested at any point, literally any point, okay? But the reality is, if you're not on their radar, the drivers are going to get tested the day before they race. So they just didn't have the results?
Starting point is 00:24:00 No, you don't have the results because you take the test, you mail the test into a lab. They don't process the test on site. TJ and I, if we get a random, we get hit the day of the cup race. So a cup driver is going to get drug tested on Saturday. An Xfinity driver is going to get drug tested on Friday. And if it's a Friday race, the truck drivers are. going to get tested on a Thursday. So he obviously had given a dirty sample before he won his race. Now, I don't know that anybody said that, but just the process and the way that I understand it,
Starting point is 00:24:32 it appears to be the way it happens. Here's my struggle with this whole thing. We're so transparent about it, but we're not transparent about it. Like, come out and say what happened when it was a minister. No, it wasn't alcohol. And I was like, what difference does that make? That's why I was really confused. No, that's what, somebody made that up. That's not a bad substance. That's what I was wondering. They have the ability to administer breathalizers to you, and they've done this. I've seen them do this at the NASCAR garage when the gates open in the morning.
Starting point is 00:25:03 They have the ability to administer a breathalyzer test to you, but it's not, they're not looking for alcohol in your blood. You know what I mean? Well, yeah. So if you're coming to work and you're inebriated on alcohol, you don't need to be working on race cars. You don't need to be driving race cars. Absolutely.
Starting point is 00:25:17 So, you know, they have the ability to check that it. 100% wasn't alcohol. But, you know, just the, I hate it for this owner, who's obviously also the dad. I hate it for the team. I hate it for the guys. Because this isn't a guy that TJ and I would have told you in preseason. He's going to win a race. He's going to be in the playoff.
Starting point is 00:25:33 And holy cow, he does it. And then he completely screws it up. And so I'm spot off for that aspect of it. I really hope he's in probably the best situation of any driver to be able to come back from this. You know, if this is him, if this is Paul Menard, if this is Brendan gone, where their fathers are wealthy people and their sons are race car drivers, as long as their dad still supports them, they can continue on. That makes me even more mad, sorry. When you look at Jeremy Mayfield and when you look at A.J. Amundinger and when you look at these other situations, crew guys, we get fired. Shouldn't be an excuse to mess up, but whatever.
Starting point is 00:26:09 I know. I'm not saying that. No, I know. I know you're not, but I'm just saying that's, unfortunately, he has the ability to come back from this better than T. T.J. and I would. Oh, absolutely. Because T. T. And I are fired. You know, the typical deal. here. This is a 10 race suspension. They tell you indefinitely because if you don't do the road to recovery program, you're not coming back. But if you do everything they say do, you get 10 weeks. And here's my struggle. If I'm in any other sport and I get caught for the first time, and people screw up, you know, it's the human thing to do. But it's two weeks off. You know, we're 10. And I get it that we're driving cars and we're doing things differently. But I just, I struggle with how we are so quick to put it all in the media, but not so quick to be transparent about some of the details that you, you care about
Starting point is 00:26:52 as a fan, okay, when did he use the bathroom? And when did he fail? And did he run a race with a dirty sample being processed? That's what I wanted to. That's what I want to know. And I work here. Oh, they won't tell any of you guys that? Oh, no. I mean, we just assume what I just told you is that it happened at a previous weekend. And then there's the whole B sample process. So you, your A sample fails. They call you. You have a window to respond to them to say why I failed and what it was from. Okay, and then if they say, okay, well, it's Claritin D. Show me where you bought it at CVS. I don't know.
Starting point is 00:27:22 I'm just using that as an example. And then you have the ability to say, test the B sample. Well, then there's another 24 to 48 hours that they got to go in there and test the other sample, which was collected at the same time as the A sample. It's basically you going, hey, maybe you got my stuff wrong. Yeah. You know what I mean? Well, I know when I had to take my drug test to get my NASCAR license, like a half hour before I went and took it,
Starting point is 00:27:44 I was at Red Robin and had poppy seed. Mustard. Opiums. Yeah. And the doctor called me and he goes, say, do you eat like poppy seed muffins or everything bagels? I go, I knew it. I freaking knew it. He goes, there was very minimal traces of opium or whatever in your test.
Starting point is 00:28:02 And I go, I had honey mustard from Red Rock and I said there was like 15 people there. I swear. You are amazing. Pickle juice, opium. You are a partier. I couldn't believe it. I was like, no way. That's how strong those tests.
Starting point is 00:28:17 We've had a lot of people that have had things show up and you get a phone call and you say, you know, I mean, for example, I had my freaking whole shoulder was blown out. And so I went to Dr. Bill and I was like, man, I'm in a mess. And he said, here, take these two things. Well, if they call me and go, Brett, this showed up in your system, I go, well, here's my prescription. And they go, okay, thanks. Yeah. They don't want you to fail.
Starting point is 00:28:38 No, absolutely not. Man had a surgery in December before. And I was on all sorts of stuff. And I took my drug test. And I know I called the creature. And I was like, look, yeah, this is probably going to light up like a Christmas tree to see you now. Yeah. And, but I had documentation for everything.
Starting point is 00:28:57 It literally is done. Like it, yeah, it's not, but I'm spot off, by the way, just because he was running so good. And everything was looking up for him. Yeah. Turning heads. It's a shame. Making me, like you said, oh, never going to win a race this year, not going to happen. Now I'm like, well, he earned that one. And he did a damn good job.
Starting point is 00:29:17 Talladega. So he's been doing a good job the last month. So. And the other thing is, I mean, you immediately fail the court of public opinion. Oh, yeah. You go from this guy who's coming off a win, riding a high, it's a PR positive to probably the biggest PR negative you could have had outside of injuring yourself or someone else. And it's like, man, now you're an idiot.
Starting point is 00:29:39 Like you went from a superstar to an idiot in less than two days. Hero to a zero. Happens. Speaking of heroes to zeros. Danica Patrick says IndyCar is more difficult than NASCAR. Do you want me to read her lovely quotes? I heard this and I just about fell over. Her quote was,
Starting point is 00:30:00 maybe this isn't a popular thing to say, but you didn't have to run the belts all that tight in a stock car. You didn't have to worry about your helmet. You didn't really have to worry about the padding that much. It was all just like fine. It's an indie car. In an indie car, excuse me, it's all critical. All the indie car fans might find this warm and fuzzy,
Starting point is 00:30:21 but everyone would ask me if I had a hard time driving those big stock cars. And if they were really physical and I'm like, no, they're way easier than an indie car to drive. I like your little tone of voyage right there. Yeah, you are sassy. It's portraying my best d'anyika. I am, I'm spot on for her coming out and just having her. opinion on it, but
Starting point is 00:30:46 man, it just doesn't sit right. It doesn't look right to me as far as seeing drivers crossover back and forth. I've seen Cup guys go over there and succeed. With minimal experience. I'd be curious to see
Starting point is 00:31:03 what Tony Stewart, if you would have the same comments, if Bush would have the same comments both having done it as she would, because I guarantee they wouldn't. I don't, man, it's hard for me to it's hard for me to really say that stock court would be easier. I mean, you ever really had a lot of success in it.
Starting point is 00:31:20 How can it be easier? You got to go and have success to say it was easy. I never saw her make it look easy. Or easier, you know. I think she gave all the effort she could. And I thought she did, you know, I thought she did a good job handling everything when she came in. But, I mean, I just. She sounds really bitter to me.
Starting point is 00:31:39 You know, she sounds like she's upset that she didn't get to go out on her own terms. and didn't get to go out. I mean, let's face it, man. You know, Eric Amarola ran 11th yesterday in her car. Is Danica Patrick going to run 11th yesterday in that car at Dover, Delaware? Probably not. Nope. So I think she's bitter.
Starting point is 00:31:59 I guess my struggle is, you know, you're going 200 miles an hour on a stock car. And let's face it, man, she better had her belts tight because she wrecked a lot over here. To me, is it like she's already pre-making an excuse in case she doesn't do as good in the Indy car? I don't think so. I don't think she's making any excuse. I think she's just bitter. I mean, you know, we watched her be competitive. Realistically, Indie was the only place she was competitive in Indy cars.
Starting point is 00:32:23 You know, I know she won a fuel mileage race somewhere, however, that played out, you know, 10 years ago. But Indy was kind of her bread and butter. That's where she made her money, and that's where she made her name, and that's how she got to NASCAR. And we all know, I mean, that's their biggest race a year, so what a better place to do it. But I don't think that it's realistic for her to say that, the easier part, for me is where it's like, were you sure it's held and make it look easy? I just, I think she's going back into something. I bet if you would have asked her the initial, when she started racing the stock car,
Starting point is 00:32:53 she'd have been like, man, this stuff's pretty hard. Yeah. I think she would have had that opinion then. Like you said, I think maybe it's just a little bit of a bitterness. It's like a bad breakup or something. Because I don't think an indie car is easy to drive by any means, and I don't. They're easier than I. Look, I'm not going to drive one of any.
Starting point is 00:33:09 I ain't either. I'm not getting any one. I mean, I give her credit for that, for sure. And she's pretty good at Indy. I mean, she does fairly well at that Moble. So I'm looking forward to watching her in the Indy 500. I hope she does really well. I hope she competes for a win.
Starting point is 00:33:23 I mean, for her last race, it'd be cool to see her do good. I think it'd be awesome if she won it. Well, that's the thing. Like, I think there's so many people that want to be fans of her, and I'm one of them. Yeah. And, you know, then she comes out and says something, and you're like, why? Like, you left here crying in a press conference, and we all thought, wow, she's real. She's not this, you know, mean, which is kind of what she would come across as.
Starting point is 00:33:46 I mean, we've seen her screaming at fans on the internet. Hey, I agree with him 110%. We've seen her screaming at crew guys. We saw her walk up to Denny and grab him. I thought she was going to knee him in the crotch. Like, you know what I mean? And then you see this really raw person and this press conference crying. And I'm like, God, if you'd have been doing this all the time, we'd all love you.
Starting point is 00:34:03 I mean, I get there's a lot of emotion and there's a lot of passion in this sport. But sometimes you just can't say and act the way that you do. I've seen both sides of it. Just be you. You know, part of me is glad that she showed some of that, but I think some of that came back to haunt her at the end down the road. But, you know, I liked the fiery, you know, the attitude she had came in and said, hey, you know, you're not going to push me around, whatever.
Starting point is 00:34:29 But the problem, though, T.J. She was back there, you know, doing that with Michael McDowellows and Land of Castles and nothing against him because they weren't in great equipment. She's in great equipment racing guys that she shouldn't have been racing. And she was in pits and contests with them. They're wrecking each other. And you're like, man, stop. You know?
Starting point is 00:34:49 Alrighty. Let's take a break. This is the Exaltor Race Center update. I'm Natalie Saker. All three NASCAR series, Cup, Xfinity, and Trucks were at Dover International Speedway over the weekend. With Sunday's weather forecast looking gloomy, teams were on their A game all day. But it would be Kevin Harvick's game who was stronger than everyone else's that he would win his fourth race of the year. For Saturday's Xfinity race, Junior Motorsports drivers, Justin Algear and Elliot Sadler did not disappoint the fans.
Starting point is 00:35:15 With contact coming for the checkered, Elgoyer would hold on to claim victory for the one main financial 200 and also claim the $100,000 dash for cash prize. Fellow Junior Motorsports teammates, Elliot Sadler finished 2nd, Tyler Reddick, 5th, and Michael Annette 15th. Sadler, Alguire, and Reddick hold the top three spots in the point standings. On Friday, it was an intense finish for the truck series as Johnny Sauter battled with pole winner Noah Gregson. Sauter would best the field to make it his second straight win at Dover. Junior Motorsports late model drivers were back in competition at Hickory Motor Speedway. Josh Berry qualified third and finished second. Teammate Sam Mayer qualified 19th and made his way up to finish seventh for the car's tour event.

Let's go into Fast Lane, where I'm going to give three topics pertaining to racing and one that's off the wall.
Starting point is 00:36:43 Brett and T.J. H. have 30 seconds to respond. Under the first stage caution on Sunday, NASCAR opened the pit road early because too many cars were running out of fuel. Is it okay for NASCAR to change the race procedure due to the strategy of the teams, Brett? Oh, man. I don't know. I mean, I think this whole stage thing was created to give a break and for us to stop these, you know, Phantom Yellows and for TV to have a chance to go to commercial. So realistically, opening it sooner or later really just depends on when we go to commercial. So I don't know that you want seven, eight, nine guys running out of gas just so we can go to commercial break. You know what I mean? I mean, if this is a real game and we've got an injury on
Starting point is 00:37:27 the field or we've got something going on, then I mean, I think it's fine. Yeah, you don't, If you're already hitting the stage, honestly, I liked it. It sped it up. We didn't sit there for three laps under caution, riding around. I liked it. You know, the stage is already paid out. You're already there. Why not?
Starting point is 00:37:49 I mean, there's no sense in, you never know how many laps they're planning on running under yellow anyway when the stage ends. So let's move it up. It should open that lap if it was a regular caution would open that lap, in my opinion, don't you think? I do, too. I mean, that's the way we used to do it. And if we were running this organically, that's what would have played out. That would have been. You know, once the stage is over, once the points have been paid out, man.
Starting point is 00:38:11 If you could tell me they're going to run out of gas and still make it a pit road and not lose a lap, I say, okay, but if they cross-star finish running 40 miles an hour and engine cuts off, you're going to lose two laps, three laps, your day's over. There's no cruise banking on that. No. Oh, these guys are going to ride under the stage. Really? I mean, if you're banking on that.
Starting point is 00:38:28 Yeah. You're in trouble. You don't want that. No. All right. After the four Xfinity series dash for cash races without cup drivers, would you like to see rules further limiting cup stars in the Xfinity series, T.J. I would not.
Starting point is 00:38:42 I think it's cool how it is. They've got it set up for a great chase later this season as well. We had a great month of Xfinity guys. We kind of got to see some guys shine a little bit. Now it's time for them to move back in with some cup guys a little bit and learn a little bit. I think it's great. I think it's a perfect mixture of how it is right now. I think the balance is perfect because we just had these four races with no cup guys.
Starting point is 00:39:07 Then we're going to let them come back and play a little bit. Then we're going to have a bunch of non-company races, four or five of those where we're going to Iowa and, you know, going road course racing and doing some of those things where once again the cup guys aren't going to be there. The positive for the cup guys is they bring a few more eyeballs. They're big names. And it's something for tracks to gravitate toward. I think the model right now is perfect. Don't touch it. Stop making changes.
Starting point is 00:39:32 I think it's been good. The only change that I would make to this is more short tracks. I think if you do these dash for cash races at short tracks, you get to these bigger tracks. It's harder for some cars to be competitive. We had a couple guys in the dash for cash. It probably weren't going to be very competitive. Let me tell you, if you take, we go to South Boston and run these cars in a dash for cash race, and Johnny Sauter's running.
Starting point is 00:39:55 That'd be good. You know how it's going to get around Sauter to short track? Yeah. And there's a lot of guys like this. Daniel Hemrick, a short track veteran. And, you know, I think the race would be closer and better. Yeah. Not that they were bad, but they were...
Starting point is 00:40:07 I mean, you got Bristol, Richmond, Talladega. Yeah. More short tracks is never going to be a bad thing. Never. Yeah. All righty. Matt Kenseth is set to come back to Cup. He will make his return at Kansas, and how do you think he will do, Brett?
Starting point is 00:40:22 Well, I think he's... It's almost like he's getting in at a good time. You know, I watched Trevor run top 15 a lot of yesterday. Ricky run top 15 a lot of yesterday. Matt's really good at Kansas. I predict him to be top 15. I do not predict him to be a contender and constantly in the top 10. It changes.
Starting point is 00:40:40 You know, the pit crew. When you hit pit road 8th, it's a lot different than hitting at 28th. You know, so there's a lot of things that that team is going to have to do to grow. I think your driver gives you a better opportunity to run in the top 10 than Trevor right now, but I don't think they're ready. I think this could be a pretty strong. I'm not sure Matt's ready to come back for this. You know what I mean?
Starting point is 00:41:02 Matt's for the last, however many years of his career, he's been top tier, everything. Now he's stepping in trying to help a program. And he's, I mean, I think it's going to be tough for him. I think it's going to be difficult at times. Running 15th. It's a, it's a, you know, a bees nest back there. And you're in that. It is.
Starting point is 00:41:24 It's a hornet's nest and stuff. So to be throwing right back into that isn't the top five that he's used to be. being in you know. Yeah, it's going to be unique to see him back there racing some guys that we don't typically see him race when he was in Gibbs equipment when he was in Roush equipment when they were obviously running a lot better than they've been running. So to watch him go back there and have to race, you know, Chris Bisher and some of those other guys, Casey Kane and all those guys that have been fighting all year. And then all of a sudden here shows up Matt Kenseth and oh, he's in the way. You know, and it's like how patient are they going to be with him too? So I think there's a lot of things
Starting point is 00:41:59 on the plate. I think once again it's a huge positive for Roush. I think top 15 though is still realistic. Where did I, where did Casey finish yesterday? Man, had to be like 15th. He tweeted about it that 15th or 16th. Pretty content. Yeah, that was pretty content. I saw that this morning. That was a solid run. He got, he got the last lucky dog of the race and I think he finished 15th or 16th. Yeah, he had one run where he lost a lot of ground. Yeah. And you know how it is at Dover, man. That's an 80-lap run. And if that's hard. Yeah, especially when Harvick and them are going that fast. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:42:32 Yeah. He said days like yesterday give me confidence in, he said honest. It should have been in the direction. We're headed three runs where we were a top 10 car and finished 17th. I appreciate the hard work from everyone. Yeah. I don't know if I'd say top 10 car. I'd say top 10th.
Starting point is 00:42:43 He was running 10th. He might have been able to hang on there with no mistakes. But, you know, that's a solid run for them. It's the same thing, though. I mean, you know, that crew chief's a new crew chief. Travis, yeah. And it's a lot. I like him.
Starting point is 00:42:56 He's a good person. You got to be ready to make. You can't, if your driver's saying I'm loose, you got to know, is the track going to continue to get even looser to do more? Like, those big name crew chiefs, they know what they're doing. They know what more rubber on the track means. Like, and that's hard for a rookie crew chief to come in and not be like, okay, I don't have the confidence to do this.
Starting point is 00:43:16 You know what I mean? Even my guy. He was like, I knew I should let that fuel out from nose weight. And we ran second. Yeah. And your crew chief is second guessing himself. You know what I mean? It's hard.
Starting point is 00:43:25 You always will. All righty. off-the-wall topic with a Kentucky Derby this past Saturday, which major sporting event is on your guys's bucket list, TJ? Oh, man. I would still like to see the Indy 500 one time. Oh, you've never seen it? On TV.
Starting point is 00:43:43 Oh, I suppose you're always. Yeah, so. Kind of busy. The atmosphere, just to go and see the atmosphere, and I would probably put up there with a Formula One race one time just to go to see that, and those two are probably top. Super Bowl. Never been to the Super Bowl.
Starting point is 00:43:58 That surprises me. Yeah, it doesn't. It doesn't look at it. It's the most disappointing thing ever. Because people pay so much money to be there. Ridiculous. And the corporate America has so many tickets that they're giving out. So, like, I'm a big fan of, you know, beer and chicken wings.
Starting point is 00:44:15 And that's not your Super Bowl audience. Your Super Bowl audience is a lot more white collar than blue collar. Yeah, for sure. I've been fortunate to go to Super Bowls. But, man, the Kentucky Derby is certainly very high. I mean, they had 157,000 people there. I would love to go. Get all fancy.
Starting point is 00:44:32 Exactly. Exactly why I don't want to go. My only struggle would be to wear all that garb. You guys put a little bow tie, pink suit. I could totally see y'all rocking that. Yeah. I'm not wearing pink, and I'm probably not wearing a bow tie. But the Kentucky Derby's high.
Starting point is 00:44:47 I mean, TJ just, I mean, I'd love to go see. Not one is pouring. You know, people say, well, I want to go to Monaco. Well, I don't because I don't like to fly. I'd go to Austin, Texas to watch an F1 race. I go to Monaco. Oh, I'd love to do that. Yeah, go to Monaco.
Starting point is 00:45:00 Number one sporting event, it's hard to beat, and I'm telling you, I've been very fortunate, but it's really hard to beat a Duke North Carolina basketball game. I don't care if they play at Cameron or if they play at the Dingdon. That atmosphere is pretty amazing. I've never been to a college basketball game. It's, and they're not all great. Like if you tell me you want to come to a college football game,
Starting point is 00:45:23 I'm going to tell you that the SEC tailgating a game experience is going to blow away the rest of the country. And, yeah, are there Virginia Techs? Are there Clemsons? Are there other ones that are good? Yes. But the SEC in general is phenomenal. We can't touch what they duplicate, though, in basketball.
Starting point is 00:45:39 That UNC Duke game, and I've been fortunate enough to go, but if you said, hey, picking out a sporting event, it's really, really fun. But we've got to get you to that. Yeah, I'd be a blast. That's cool. All righty. Ask DBC.
Starting point is 00:45:50 Producer Jason Schultz has chosen a couple questions here. So at 34, Jeff Kunkel, that's right, asks, is winning a rain short and race any less awesome than winning one straight up? Brett will go with you first because I know Clint was saying he wanted a rain dance. Yeah, I've never won a rain short and race. I can just tell you the feeling that I got yesterday when the rain got there was that it's not over. And it was that we're probably going to go back racing. And so had we not gone back racing, I think it would have been obviously awesome to win, but you're not riding that same emotional high when you tell your driver, checker flag, you win.
Starting point is 00:46:36 And that's just the difference in it, because when rain starts, it's a hurry up and wait game. And regardless of when they call it, it's a lot more subdued than that intense moment of taking a checker flag first. Yeah, I've won a rain short and race at Phoenix a couple years ago. We won with Dell Jr. You're right. You don't have that, you know, it's that countdown, that 10 to go, you know, five to go, four, three, you're not. Like, that's like, man, Talladega a couple weeks ago. We're like, 10 to go.
Starting point is 00:47:09 I'm like, oh, my gosh, it's going to be forever. 10 more minutes. Nine to go. It seemed like 20 minutes right there. I'm like, geez. So, I mean, it's still fun to win. Super fun. It is still, but it just doesn't have that.
Starting point is 00:47:23 same, like when you win in the rain, sometimes they move Victory Lane into a, into a, in the garage area. It just doesn't have that, doesn't have that same, you know, atmosphere. But, you know, sometimes that's the way it goes. We want Phoenix. It poured forever after the race. So it was the right call. There was a few minutes yesterday where I thought that rain had set in. Like, it wasn't on the radar. And I was like, man, this might end up being here for a little while. There's no lights here. So, um, you never know. All righty. At Anthony Barbone asks for T.J. If you found out Brett got arrested, what would your guests be asked why? We're going streaking through the quad.
Starting point is 00:47:59 I was going to say public nudity. What do you call it when you, you know, go to the bathroom in public? That's called indecent exposure. Indecency? There we go. Yeah. Everybody's peed outside at some point. I don't judge people to get called for that.
Starting point is 00:48:18 But if I had to pick... It depends on where. If I had to pick, it would be probably one of those. Drunk in public? Yeah, no, I'd be more doing something. Who gets arrested for being drunk in public? That's just the dumbest thing I've ever heard of. It'd be more of like, I got to go.
Starting point is 00:48:33 In public drinking. That's the point of it. I know, but how drunk you got to be to get arrested for being drunk in public? Like, you got to be acting like an idiot. You do got to be acting like an idiot. Which I saw a guy leaving Dover one time. Me and T.J. leave the roof and we walked to this parking lot that's out there by the little freeway thing.
Starting point is 00:48:48 And there's this big grassy area. This dude was lights out. Shirt off, wallering around. in this, you know, shorts. And I was like, dude, you can't. And I think that's when you can't defend yourself as maybe what it is. Yeah, that's probably it. If I was going to get arrested, it would probably be for going way too fast going to Bristol.
Starting point is 00:49:05 Because I got that 81 and the 60, and I was like, oh, God. I hope this guy's going to give me a ticket. So I got pulled over when I was younger. I was going 91 and a 70. Get some? And he told me if I would have been, like, and I had somebody with me, I think it was like two or three miles an hour faster. and I would have gotten attempted manslaughter. Jeez.
Starting point is 00:49:25 Yeah, because somebody was with me. You were excited. Was I had to go to court. Not that pickle juice. They fuss at you? Oh, so my dad, so I was in like a 1975 barretta. It was a POS. Oh, nice.
Starting point is 00:49:39 And I was going down a hill. They didn't make barretta. Whatever. It was an 80, bretta, whatever. No, it was like a blue. I actually thought the barretta was a nice, decent car. But it was. A POS.
Starting point is 00:49:52 Like, my dad was doing this person in favor. Obviously, it would go pretty decent. Well, you know, we picked up speed. So my dad had it tested with this deal. Calibrated. And it was off by five miles an hour. And those five miles an hour let me keep my license. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:06 The sheriff was pissed. I would probably imagine. I dressed up, super conservative, went to court. No makeup. Button up to here. Yeah, I got out of the ticket, though. Thank goodness. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:20 Anybody have a rant? I actually don't. I'm in a good mood today, and I'm tired. I stayed up with 2.30 playing PubG. Yeah. I went to bed at 2.30 after the stylus cream for two hours. That sucks. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:38 But I'm like going to bad, sleeping for a hour and a half, and then hearing that. Guess who took the lead? So garbage, too. He's back. It's so garbage. Sorry, man. Here's it in color, if you all want. Look at my last three picks.
Starting point is 00:50:52 Jimmy Outrun Larson all day. Look at my last three picks. Loser, loser, loser. That's what I see. Those three picks are like swinging for the fence too. And you lost them all. Look at that winter with Casey Kane I pulled out. It's ridiculous.
Starting point is 00:51:08 We're going to Kansas. Another mile and a half. I have not thought about my pick. Boyer's home track. I know. I talked to him last night after the race. He's all bummed out because we didn't win. Yeah, he said,
Starting point is 00:51:19 I was watching how Harvard kept giving him grief all weekend. What do you mean why he didn't win? You didn't have the best car. I know. I know. I mean, but it's still. I mean, you know, that's a place where Clint wants to win and knows that he can win. Well, I'll be good.
Starting point is 00:51:33 I'll go with that. Coral, no, I'm just kidding. Oh, boy. Kansas, huh? And he's added. Oh, I love it. Good job, Jason. You're welcome.
Starting point is 00:51:45 This would be you. All right, fine. I'll take Hamlin. Wow. I'm still swinging. Still swinging for the fence. One of these I'm going to win. Oh, Jason, that was good.
Starting point is 00:51:55 Denny Hamlin. I mean, you're either tying it up or you're... You know, I'm almost saying I'm picking this guy too late, but I'm, you know what, I'm not going to do it. I was almost going to pick Suarez right there because he's coming off a top three. He's got some momentum. It was Cinco de Mayo this week.
Starting point is 00:52:13 Is that why he ran well? You damn right, it is. That is one of my favorite holidays. It is so unfortunate that I had to work. He was in a hurry to get that tequila after the race. By the way, he did a good job yesterday, too. He did. Track position race, so that helped him.
Starting point is 00:52:26 You know, a decent car you can hang on. I'm going to go with Ryan Blaney. You feel so good about that. Do any of you all follow? Okay, I got to show you this. This is... Kansas was Denny's first poll. I need to ask him where he got this.
Starting point is 00:52:40 This is awesome. Did you guys... I think you should let us... I think you should unlock your phone and let us scroll your... We did that before, remember? Yeah, that does not happen. Oh, she's got better stuff on it now.
Starting point is 00:52:56 Remember, we did that right there. Yeah, we should do it again right now. I don't know if it was on. I thought it was on. He's got this little guy, and he goes to fill up his drink, and it comes out of here. And it is so funny. I want to ask him where he got it. What?
Starting point is 00:53:13 So he fills up his drink, so it's like a guy, and it comes out of his thing, like the drink. Is this for your Bachelorette party? Holy cow. It's like he like legit videoed it went and put it in his drink
Starting point is 00:53:30 and it just shot a little street. So Brett picks a spot we get five swipes each direction. No. Brett picks the part where we start
Starting point is 00:53:39 in your picture in your photo album then we get five swipes each way. She's turning red. She is. I have nothing on there but you're not going to
Starting point is 00:53:49 through my pictures. I don't, I don't believe you. Not when we said that. You're like, that's not happening. That was the shadyest. I ain't letting her go through mine. Exactly. I'm down with that, you know.
Starting point is 00:54:02 Look at TJ. I still think she should do it. And we should video it. Hey, y'all make sure y'all go leave us a review. I was looking at our reviews. We've got like five-star everything. If you go look at our reviews. What did you expect?
Starting point is 00:54:14 Leave us a review. Those millions and millions of listeners all over. And TJ's going to pick a random person. you prove that you left a review and he'll send you a door bummer clear shirt. Yeah. You really don't have any left? Maybe like a small. I'll take it.
Starting point is 00:54:27 It's not in my house. We'll send a small out. Where is it? At the guy that handles all the stuff. Oh, got it. Leave us a review. Awesome. Leave us a review.
Starting point is 00:54:37 It's cool to read what people say. The only thing I hate it by it on my iTunes deal is, though, the most recent reviews at the bottom. Like when you open it up. Yeah, you got to scroll down. Yeah, like they need to invert that because I open it up. When I read the review from when we first read the top. On the computer, it's not that way, is it? You can choose which way you want to, like, most recent, most popular.
Starting point is 00:54:56 Statician over here. Got to read the reviews. Jason's on it today. He's getting better and better each week. Thank God. Thank you. We're not used to this. Now we're here.
Starting point is 00:55:04 Yeah. We're not used to this effort level. Josh would be like, but we've done yet. That don't feel good. So are you traveling to any races this year, Natalie? No. No. Just dirt ones.
Starting point is 00:55:17 Yeah. Not even Charlotte. What if you... No, I'm going to go watch Carson Race that week. It's his birthday that weekend. What if y'all break up? Does that change? No.
Starting point is 00:55:26 I don't... I mean, maybe the brickyard. Oh, yeah? I introduce you to Matt. Yeah. He lives in Indy, so... Yeah, awesome. We stay downtown Indy, man.
Starting point is 00:55:36 Indy's an awesome town. Mm-hmm. You know, I hate the racetrack. It isn't more exciting for stock cars, but it is what it is. You know, Kansas is another great area. There's not... Kansas is cool with all that little deal right there. You built that track and you were like, man, there's nothing out here.
Starting point is 00:55:51 Kind of like Concord Mills and Charlotte. Now there's everything. And now there's literally everything you can think of. Where are you running your 5K there on Saturday? It's called Running of the Cows, ironically. You better beat the cows. Can we get you a shirt that looks like a cow? It's in Overland Park.
Starting point is 00:56:06 We got shirts made up. I'll send you a copy of what it looks like. It's pretty funny. That's hilarious. Yeah, it'd be cool. Running with the cows. Running of the cows. Oh, same thing.
Starting point is 00:56:16 So Friday, our first practice is at 8.30 in the morning with trucks. We don't race until 8 that night. So it's a 14-hour day of triple duty. I mean, not triple-duty, but a 14-hour day of double-duty. So you spot, you run, spot, and race? No. Saturday, all I do is get up and run at 8 in the morning, and then we race that night, so it's easy. Got it.
Starting point is 00:56:38 But Friday is, like, super long the day before. Oh, Friday. Sorry. The day before we race. Yeah. How's your training going? It's good, man. He's got some kickers on.
Starting point is 00:56:46 I know. I'm, it'll be fun, you know, it'll be something different. So, TJ, you want to run with us?
Starting point is 00:56:54 No. TJ, do you do running? Do you do running? I'll actually do it cycling. I don't do running. I'll do the cycling. I'll do cycling.
Starting point is 00:57:02 Okay, how's your biking going? Pretty. He ain't biking. These babysit. Yeah, pretty bad since I don't have any time. Yes.
Starting point is 00:57:10 This is, it's, yeah, this kid is a handful. Is Stella, Does Stella sleep more? No, hell no. Sleeps way less.
Starting point is 00:57:20 I swear. She's so cute. That was that here? She sleeps very little. I'm telling you. That's miserable. I'm telling you, every time I close my eyes, it's like an hour and a half into sleep. And I'm like, oh, I just, like, there it is.
Starting point is 00:57:34 It's like every time. Yeah. And then she gets back up at 6 a.m. After going bed at 2.30, so it's like, are you serious? No, no, no. There's nothing more miserable than that. Like it wears you out. The first night, Jovey came home, I kept her up all night or she kept me up all night
Starting point is 00:57:55 the next morning because all they said in the little nursery thing is she's the best baby. She's so good. She's eating and sleeping. Get her home. She cries for 18 hours. And I went and I was like, Claudia, can we take her back to that little daycare place where they were so good? Because if she was so happy there, I would love for her to be happy there. Oh, my gosh.
Starting point is 00:58:15 She's good all day. Like, she's great all day. Yeah. But in the middle of the night, what is your deal to sleep? Come on. She's like, no, I don't really work that way. I mean, she literally, she's figured out how to take the pass for out of her mouth now. And it uses it as a hammer on the side of the crib.
Starting point is 00:58:28 So she's like, hey, I'm awake. Like, come in, get me. So it's like, go back to bed. It's miserable. It is pretty. But then you go in there and you pick her up. She's like, oh, hey. I don't think kids are fun until they're like a year old.
Starting point is 00:58:43 My niece is so much fun. She's too, and I just thinking of her. She's got an attitude now. One year old and older, it's super fun. That first year, it's like, you eat, you cry. Yeah. I don't like any three of these things. No, I would agree.
Starting point is 00:58:57 I grew up and so much fun. I've tried to tell Del Jr., like, look, right now, all you're doing is feeding, changing diapers, and tiptoeing around the house a little bit. The key for a guy to be a good dad the first six months is to have the mom breastfeed, because then the guy's got it made. Yeah. Honey, wake up. It's time to feed her again.
Starting point is 00:59:18 Hey, she's hungry. Get your ass up and go feed her. See, I can't feed her. Hard being a woman, unless you're bottom feeding. I would do the middle of the night stuff like through. She'd pump and I'd do the middle of the night. So I don't mind doing that. Dude, you got a dairy farm at your house.
Starting point is 00:59:31 You're pumping and dumping and you wake up in the middle of night and you're and you look up there and you're like, oh my God, what is going on in the air? It's crazy. It's like, and then you open your refrigerator and it's, I'm telling you. There's milk everywhere. They get out there. You get that late night. It happened to our life.
Starting point is 00:59:48 You get that late night bowl of cereal. You mix it up. Oh, I don't even want to know. I'm just kidding. I'm kidding. And with that, we're out. There's a famous race car driver that I know that tasted it. There's football players that pay big money to drink breast milk because it's supposed to be really good for you.
Starting point is 01:00:05 I mean, it is for a baby. I know it's really good for them. It's like full nutrients. I've read that or saw that on Twitter or some news crap somewhere. Man, I just gagged. Hey, you want to beef up for your run? I'll bring you some. I'm out.
