In the Exalta studio, I'm Taylor Zarzer with Tyler Overstreet and first name Kelsey, last name Tucker. Hello. Mike Davis is hunting in Ohio. Dale Earnhardt Jr. is hunting in Ohio. Last name Davis is now working for Sirius X-M. And this is what you get.
Starting point is 00:01:17 Yeah, well, you just get us, the scrubs. Well, and you have a chance, Tyler, to trash Mike Davis because he's hunting with Dale Jr. You can trash both of them for that matter. True. Yeah. Because they're hunting in Ohio. So what do you think the chances are this podcast isn't as long? as ones that Mike Davis is associated with.
Starting point is 00:01:37 Yeah, I would venture to guess. I mean, we'll get to the information people want to know and not ruin their whole afternoon. I have to listen to it. Well, we do have some things that we do want to discuss. Edwards wins in Texas, took forever to get that race in, finally did under the lights on a Sunday night
Starting point is 00:01:58 there at Texas Motor Speedway. It was a weekend filled with Dato Parasco. coping and he also interacted with the fans like he did at Bristol Motor Speedway, he did it again at Texas. So we're going to hear all of that. But I think we must start with this news. I have to tell you how I found out about this news, Tyler. Sometimes, you know, I just go to ESPN.com to see what the top stories are in all of sports.
Starting point is 00:02:25 And I saw some of the headlines, Tommy Tuberville, the Cincinnati football coach, is screaming at fans in the stands that were screaming at him. That was one of the headlines. And then the next headline was Dale Earnhardt Jr. gets a speeding ticket on his way to Texas Motor Speedway. Yeah, I saw that. I didn't know if that was like huge news or maybe it was a slow news day. It made the Today Show this morning. Yeah, and Good Morning America tweeted it.
Starting point is 00:02:56 Yeah. Don't we have one of the biggest days in the history of our country coming tomorrow? and I'm with you, Tyler. Like, I think it's funny. And obviously, Amy tweeting it out is what got this kind of reaction. And I'm curious if Dale Jr. was like, Amy, if you didn't tweet this out. But it is kind of interesting that it's a front page story on ESPN.com. And it makes the Today Show that Junior got a warning.
Starting point is 00:03:22 He didn't get a speeding ticket. He got a warning. Yeah, I, yeah, it's really weird. And I read the article because it was an AP article. and they made it a little bit suspicious because they were like, oh, he didn't or she didn't say how fast he was going. Well, he was going 74 and a 65. So he wasn't like hauling the mail down the freeway.
Starting point is 00:03:46 Right. He was going nine over. The part that me and Mike didn't like is the cop apparently his ticket writing machine. I don't know. Apparently they don't do pen and paper in text. Texas didn't work, so he wasn't able to, it didn't check his ID. I guess he was like, oh, that's Dale Jr. And then all of this stuff mysteriously started malfunctioning,
Starting point is 00:04:12 and he didn't give him a ticket. Because you wanted him to get a ticket is what you're saying. Well, maybe a slap on the wrist. I have been on that exact road driving to Texas Motor Speedway, and I may or may not have. Yeah, it was in a 74 miles an hour on that road. Right, I'm pretty sure I was going 80. but that's a different story.
Starting point is 00:04:33 But yeah, if you're going through Roanoke, Texas, which is pretty close to the racetrack, I guess, be on the lookout. They'll get you. It's the motorcycle cop, too. Did you have a chance to bust Junior's chops about this yesterday? No, actually, we were on the flight later in the day, and I saw the ESPN.com thing,
Starting point is 00:04:52 and he was just proud that they included his tweet, too, where he referenced that he wasn't going fast enough. But, yeah, that's pretty, pretty impressive because, I mean, the chase, it was the round of eight race. Then you had the Matt De Benedetto situation and Kozlowski tweeting about concussions and his feelings about the protocol. But yet, Dale Jr., getting a speeding ticket was the number one NASCAR story for the day. I was surprised when I saw this morning that it had made the Today Show. It was like, man, it must be a really slow news day.
Starting point is 00:05:26 Yeah. But the elections tomorrow. Did Carl Edwards winning the race make the Today Show? No, it did not. I don't know. I don't think it did. I don't think it did. Dale Jr. getting a warning does make it.
Starting point is 00:05:37 And for all of us out there, Tyler included, that are like, man, this is unfair that Junior gets this kind of treatment. I think we're all being hypocrites because you know good and well. If we were in that position, we would do the same thing. In fact, I have to admit, I have done the same thing. So years ago, when I was just a sports talk show host and Mobile, Alabama, my friends. I got a speeding ticket, and I went to court, and I showed up at the courthouse, and the guy said, hey, man, are you the guy that does the show on the radio? And I said, yeah. And he said, can you get me some minor league baseball tickets? And I said, I can get you
Starting point is 00:06:13 season tickets. And he goes, okay, just pay the fine, but this is off your record. So I just want to make it clear that I can't, I mean, this is, that did not make the today show and it didn't make ESPN.com. And Lord knows, my own family isn't even sure what my name is. but I just want to mention it's hard for me to be critical of Dale Jr. just getting a warning. Yeah. I did get out of my first speeding ticket because I worked at JRM. It was weird.
Starting point is 00:06:40 Well, see, there you go. Yeah. See? I didn't get out of the second one, though. I got one on the way to Bristol, where they have the lights and the cameras. Yeah. Oh, I did too. I got one last year, but guess what?
Starting point is 00:06:54 I wasn't driving the car. T.J. Majors was driving the car. And did he get a ticket? No, it was the camera one, but it was registered to me, so they sent it to J.R.M. And Stephen's like, hey, you got to pay this. And I paid it because I didn't want to have to have the annoying conversation with T.J. Where he would have just talked and talked and talked. And so I saved myself that hour and just paid the 50 bucks.
Starting point is 00:07:22 Yeah, it wasn't bad. It wasn't bad. It was like, I think mine was like either 50 or 60 bucks. Yeah. And it's no points. You just wait, though, first name, Kelsey. You are going to be now with your newfound fame. If you go a hundred, you do a pull a Kyle Bush.
Starting point is 00:07:39 Now, I'm not suggesting you do that. You drive 130 miles an hour and a 45 mile an hour zone. You know, I'm just saying people are going to go, oh, wait a minute, this is first name Kelsey from the Dale Jr. download. Watch out. I mean, it's a newfound fame that you have now. I hope that works in my favor. That would be nice to use.
Starting point is 00:07:55 As for smaller stories, also known as the actual race, Carl Edwards winning the AAA Texas 500. He's in the championship for, and it took forever, obviously, to get this race off. And I felt bad for everybody associated with it. You know, the fans at the top of the list and all the teams and everybody that supports NASCAR, they had to wait all day. But good on NASCAR for getting the race in. And how about Edwards? Edwards now, what was that, five years ago that he?
Starting point is 00:08:25 tied Tony Stewart in points and lost on the tiebreaker, he's going to have another chance to win a championship in two weeks. Yep. I hope he comes up short again so that Jimmy can win. But yeah, yeah, that was a good job. The pit crew won him in the race. I mean, that's happened several times since he went to Gibbs. A lot of those guys were on Dale's team prior to 2015.
Starting point is 00:08:49 So this is a good group of guys. I did find it interesting that they interviewed Kevin Harris. I've never seen a Pit crew member get interviewed because of a successful stop, but yeah. That was a good job by them, and then he got the clean air, and Joey wasn't able to catch him there.
Starting point is 00:09:07 But good for Carl. I mean, the Gibbs cars have obviously been strong all season, so they'll have a great shot in Homestead. Shout out to our friend Miss Amanda Wolfmeier. Yes. Of course,
Starting point is 00:09:20 husband Kip is part of that team. So we do have Dale Jr. download alums associated with that team. So I know that she's pulling in Hartwood like you. I'm not pulling for him.
Starting point is 00:09:32 Right. In Homestead, Miami. I'll be pulling for the 48. Another huge story that comes out of this is the brewhaha between Austin Dillon and Mr. Kevin Harvick.
Starting point is 00:09:46 Now, these are the words of Austin Dillon after Harvick issued an apology over the radio for the issues that they had as Dylan was hit from behind by Harvick. This is what Dylan said, quote, I mean, he is tucked down to my door tighter than anybody did all night. He knew how tight he was on my door,
Starting point is 00:10:10 and that is why I got tight and slid up in front of him. He didn't check up, but he had the opportunity to. He didn't like that the Silver Spoon Kid was out running him tonight. So we'll be all right. We have two weeks left, and we just want to come out and win. a race. That sounds a little bit like there could be some revenge involved in these next two races. Yeah, it would take some guts to wreck Harvick. Especially in Phoenix.
Starting point is 00:10:36 Yeah. Yeah. Unless the three stays out on tires or is getting lapped by Harvick, I wouldn't expect him to see Harvick much in Phoenix. Yeah. But, yeah, I mean, I can understand. Austin was running awesome. He was up to what, third whenever he had got hit by the 23. So he was moving forward late in the race, got spun out there, and then on the ensuing restart,
Starting point is 00:11:01 he gets taken out. But, I mean, he got loose and then slid up right in front of Harvick, and you're exiting turn four. You're not going to lift right there. No. Especially if somebody kind of does you wrong, or if you get loose and sorry,
Starting point is 00:11:18 which I can say that, because I'm a team Harvick guy from our, years at JRM. And I'm not a big three fan. So, yeah, I'm sorry that your race got ruined. I mean, obviously, if that was us, I'd be pissed off too. I felt like Harvick's interview post-race was like a sincere.
Starting point is 00:11:40 Like, he's like, I didn't mean to do it. Like, I wasn't intentional at all. And then. There's just so much, only so much you can do right there. You can't stop when you're back in the gas right there. Yeah. I think it would have been great for you to come on this. Dale Jr. downloaded. Just trash Harvick, though.
Starting point is 00:11:57 Really? After what he did to you. I like Harvick. And a huge grin that he had on his face trying to keep it together on the prank that went viral. I thought it would have been great for you to just trash him here. But in all seriousness, I agree completely. I don't think for a second he was trying to do that. But of course, there's bad blood. And there's been bad blood for a second.
Starting point is 00:12:18 Now, the reason why Austin said the Silver Spoon comment is, of course, three years ago in a truck race, Harvick made a comment about Ty Dillon and basically made a comment about both of them being Silver Spoon into their situation because they are the grandchildren of Richard Childress. But nevertheless,
Starting point is 00:12:40 we'll see if this goes on. Now, Harvick's going to have to win Phoenix, though, guys. Right. He's, what, like 18 out? He's 18 out and 7th. I expect him to win Phoenix, though. Do you really? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:12:50 Yeah. Since he's went to Stuart Haas, the only guy to beat him was Dale last fall, and that was a rain short and race. So that's five out of, or that's what, four out of five wins, and then he won a couple at children's before then. He's definitely the man.
Starting point is 00:13:06 He's definitely the man for that place. He's repave that track. He's the man. So I expect him to win. I mean, he may not, but he's got a better shot than most. He has the best, though, bleep, eating grin
Starting point is 00:13:22 in all of NASCAR. Oh, yeah. There's no question. And when somebody told him about what Slugger Labby said, because I'm not the one that's suggesting to watch out. Slugger is the one after the race. It said, watch out. He said mark down that number.
Starting point is 00:13:37 Right. Number four. And if the three sees the four, like you said, who knows, maybe they won't in Phoenix's weekend, but if the three sees the four, watch out. And when Harvick was told of Slugger's comments, he had the biggest grin on his first.
Starting point is 00:13:52 face. He said Slugger says a lot of things that he shouldn't. Yeah. I assume they're not buddies. But, oh, well, I think Harvick will be okay. I think it'll be okay. Yeah, but it was definitely a fascinating point of the race. Bowman finished 13th, his best finish at Texas Motor Speedway. And I'm telling you what, man. Tyler, you've been around this team every single week. I'm really impressed with the job the 88 is done the last couple of months. The job that Greg's done as a crew chief, the way the team has rallied together with a different driver. Bowman clearly has shown he belongs at this level.
Starting point is 00:14:33 I'll be very interested to see what his options are next year. But from a talent standpoint, he's proven himself. And if I'm a fan of Dale Jr., I've got way more confidence today than I had months ago in this entire team going into 2017. Absolutely. They've made considerable gains. I guess it started maybe that Michigan race, where Chase probably should have won.
Starting point is 00:15:00 And then Alex ran really well and something happened with the engine. But ever since then, the HMS cars have been super fast. I don't know what they found, but I can't wait for Dale to be able to get back in there and see what he can do. I actually talked to Alex on the grid, and he didn't, yesterday was like the least optimistic I've seen him because he was starting what 16th, 18th?
Starting point is 00:15:21 16th, yeah. And I guess he drove right into the top 10 early in the race and he had that tire problem. And I think that messed up something with the car and it wasn't quite the same, but he still ran top 15. And he was going to finish 12th and they took a risk there on that last,
Starting point is 00:15:39 when the rain started and pitted, but it never got back going. But yeah, he does a phenomenal job. Hopefully it's open to eye. because he can do it. Whether it's Xfinity or Cup, he's a plenty good race car driver. No doubt.
Starting point is 00:15:57 He's clearly proven that. So this weekend's going to be fascinating because let's say you're right. Kevin Harvick wins in Phoenix. You're basically going to have three guys fighting for one spot. Lugano and Kyle Bush are a point ahead of Matt Kenseth right now. And then Denny's two out. Denny's two out.
Starting point is 00:16:18 You're right. So really, yeah, you've got four. four, that's right, you got four guys fighting for one spot if Harvick wins, or Kurt Busch wins, who's way back, 34 points back. Now, if one of those guys does not win, then you've got four guys fighting for two spots. So Kyle, Kinzith, Hamlin, Kevin Harvick, or, or excuse me, Kyle Lugano, Kinzith, Denny Hamlin, are the four guys fighting for either one or two spots. Who do you have the most confidence in going into Phoenix? Out of those four, I would say Kyle and Matt, just because I feel like they've done it time and time again.
Starting point is 00:16:54 But Joey is, Joey's good everywhere, and Denny's a good short track, flat track guy. So they're all going to be really good. Obviously, Harvick's got a win. So that's going to be an exciting race. I hope people tune in and see that because hopefully there's some drama. Yeah. Maybe Joey and Matt can rekindle their old flame.
Starting point is 00:17:19 I've certainly seen that play out before last year in Martinsville. Jimmy and Carl obviously are locked in. Who knows, maybe one of them will win again in Phoenix. Well, I know it was a long day. It was a long weekend, but it was sloppy yellow's personal playground. And first name, Kelsey, we're going to keep our microphones hot here so we can laugh at what sloppy yellow came up with this entire weekend as we're. We made him once again our on-site field reporter at Texas Motor Speedway. All right.
Starting point is 00:17:57 Here we go. All right. This is Dado. Standing outside. No, standing inside, turn three. Texas Motor Speedway during a truck race. We're under a caution right now. I'm standing here with the guys wearing a junior motorsport shirt, established 1999.
Starting point is 00:18:13 Sir, would you state your name? And where you're from for the record? For the record, my name is Mark. from Dallas, Texas. Woo! Oh, sorry. Shaggy Dog Racing on Twitter. Hell yeah, you all right.
Starting point is 00:18:26 So why are you a Dale Jr. fan? I'm a Dale Jr. fan because it's the best driver there was. You guys, I'm right. He is. Hell yeah. Wow. If you can ask five seconds and say any, okay, 10 seconds, say anything, Dale Jr. What would you say?
Starting point is 00:18:39 Dale Jr., respect the hell out of what you did this year, but get the fuck back in the car, buddy. Amen, brother. That's what I'm talking about. That interview escalated. It escalated. And I got stuff out of that, too. It was, these people were happy. That sounded like Stone Cold Steve Austin a little bit.
Starting point is 00:18:58 A little bit, right? Doing interviews. Any time Dato does an interview, it's great with me. Yeah, 100%. He started that, like, level-headed. And then the first time somebody cursed, it just went crazy. Oh, he went crazy. Oh, yes.
Starting point is 00:19:10 And I cut a little, I kept more out of that. There was a lot of screaming and hooting and hollering and everything. I just appreciate how excited he gets. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Especially that's the first night, the truck race, man. Yeah, that's the first night.
Starting point is 00:19:22 You've got to taste yourself. Yeah, what else we got? Here we are at the Texan Motor Speedway infield. And, ma'am, I like to say, I really impressed with your moves and the way you work the, what do you call that, what do he call that? What do you call that? A poll? Yes, I like the way you worked that pole. That's very impressive.
Starting point is 00:19:42 Obviously, you went to school for a very long time to be able to do that, and your hard work and showed off. But I see you're wearing a, it looks like it, I don't know, what number are you wearing? 88. Are you a Dale Jr. fan? Yes, I am. All right, why would you be a Dale Jr. fan? Oh, because he's the best. You know that.
Starting point is 00:20:04 He's the best. I know that. All right. Can you name one other driver in the field? Okay, let me ask you a question. Can you name one of the top finalists for the president? nomination on Tuesday. Okay.
Starting point is 00:20:24 Can you name the state in which you are in right now? Texas. All right. You got it right here from Texas Motor Speedway. Wow. Don't even know who is in the presidential nominate. This is such a good idea. This is the infield?
Starting point is 00:20:41 This is the infield. Oh, my. She may not know who's up for the election or who else is in the field, but she does know what a poll is. Yeah. sense of her. Because Dato was struggling to figure out what that was. There's a road that goes right down the middle of Texas Motor Speedway.
Starting point is 00:20:57 And on one side is the garage. And then the other side is the camping. I've never been on the camping side. But apparently it's still. Apparently you need to go. I'm missing out. You need to go for sure. We had a rain delay.
Starting point is 00:21:14 Oh, man, when was that rain delay? I think we had a rain delay in the, April, when the final four was there, the same weekend, the final four was there a couple years ago. And a junior, remember junior hit the grass really early in that race. But I spent a lot of time in the campground that weekend. It's quite a sight. Yeah. It's quite a sight over there.
Starting point is 00:21:35 I can't wait to go back. Wow. It is fantastic stuff right there from Dado on the scene. What else we got? On a scale of 9 to 10, how drunk are you? Me? Yes. I'm like a four
Starting point is 00:21:49 Wait a little You are You are a strong son I can tell you that All right So who is a driver You hate the most right now I don't hate any drivers
Starting point is 00:22:04 None? No God damn that's cool All right That's impressive If it wasn't Dale Jr Who would you root for There's a lot of them out there man
Starting point is 00:22:15 I mean I said one It wasn't Dale Jr., who would you root for? Give me one. Come on, Dad. One. You're putting me on the spot. I'm putting you on the spot.
Starting point is 00:22:24 One. I'm not going to say. Danica. Whatever. Wow. I just love that. That man was non-committal to anything. I love when he said, I'm like a four.
Starting point is 00:22:41 Yeah. Not a four. He was like a 40. Yeah. You're not a four. No. He probably had a 40 in his hand. Yes.
Starting point is 00:22:48 Yes. Okay. Yeah, but... Yeah, he didn't want to commit to a favorite driver or hate this driver? No. It was very bad. Maybe he didn't know any drivers. That one was an entertaining one to listen to.
Starting point is 00:23:01 Absolutely. But this one's a good one too. Listen, I like to, it's a little awkward, a little embarrassing. But maybe it's not. I'm really impressed with the way he worked. The way you work the pole was very impressive. You mean the pole? Yeah, it's a very way.
Starting point is 00:23:20 Yeah, the way you worked the pole is very impressive. Could you tell me what your name is and where you're from? My name is Bruce and I'm from Louisiana. You're from Louisiana. Yes, sir. surprising. All right, so who's your favorite driver? Dale Jr.
Starting point is 00:23:34 Dale Jr. is a driver. Why is Dale Jr. your favorite driver? He's the only driver. He's the only driver? Yeah. All right, let me ask you a question. Can you name another driver? All right, that's a toughie.
Starting point is 00:23:45 That's a toughie. Kyle Harvick? Okay. That's a toughie. All right, let me ask you another question. Who are the top two presidential nominees on Tuesday? Who are the top two? Mike Davis sucks.
Starting point is 00:24:01 Mike Davis does suck. Wow. The presidential nominee. Do you know a presidential nominee? I can't help you there. All right. On a scale of one to two, how awesome is Kyle Bush? Give me a different scale.
Starting point is 00:24:19 I question. Do you think that, do you think Rutledge Wood is in trouble? Like, do you think that there's a real chance he's going to lose his job and NBC is going to replace Rutledge with Datto? There's a chance. There's a good chance. He's just, he's not very polished, but we need to take Datto to Talladega. Yes. On the boulevard.
Starting point is 00:24:38 Yes. There's no doubt. 100%. I think those are his people. I love this stuff. I mean, it is, it's outrageously funny. That's for sure. And you always learn something.
Starting point is 00:24:48 Like, even though. this election has gotten so much coverage. Nobody knows who the candidate. Yeah, the people of Texas Motor Speedway don't care. We got anything else? Nope, that's it. That's it. It's all we got. That's Datto for you.
Starting point is 00:25:04 Sloppy Yellow interviewing the fans. He did all of those interviews in a two-song span. Yeah. That's right. Oh, there was one that was, it was over, what, nine minutes, I think. And it was just a lot of... What is that, a sit-down? Yeah, I guess it was a sit-down in a.
Starting point is 00:25:20 interview. But it was a, we weren't getting anywhere in the nine minutes. Mike Davis also did sign sloppy yellow I saw. Yeah. This weekend. And he got a shirt too. Yeah, he said the, um, the food over there was good. Oh, I bet. I didn't make it over there. Yeah. I don't go on that side of the fence. He had a sloppy yellow hanging out with the team, uh, yesterday as well, saw some of those pictures there during the rain delay. He's, he's the man and he's the unofficial president of junior Motor Sports. I know we've had a contentious election period here for the president of Junior Nation.
Starting point is 00:25:57 Randy Macho Man Savage, even though he's passed on. He's gotten a lot of support. Submarine Mike has gotten some support and many others, but... I've met Submarine Mike. Where'd you in? He's at Daytona outside the media center every day during speed weeks and I think July race too. But don't you think Datto should be the unofficial president of Junior Nation?
Starting point is 00:26:18 I like Datto. He's very enthusiastic. Very. Well, there he is interviewing the fans. Now, due to weather delay in yesterday's AAA Texas 500 at Texas Motor Speedway, we did not have reaction theater for today's download. But don't worry, if you called in last night, we may just play your message on next week's download if first name Kelsey thinks it's any good. Yeah. So that's basically the way it rolls.
Starting point is 00:26:41 And we'll have that back again next week. Remember to call Reaction Theater on Sunday following the cup race at Phoenix International Raceway. call 855-740-1902 after the checkered flag flies.

White flag right there, white flag.
Starting point is 00:27:08 Gosh, it's a quiet week for Dale Jr. Because as we mentioned before, he's heading or he's hunting with Mike Davis. chances of them actually shooting anything slim to none. Thursday, we're going west to Phoenix for a team outing. That should be interesting. The next morning, he's got an appearance at the nationwide regional office in Scottsdale for their executives and associates there. Friday afternoon, we're going to go to the track for a little while.
Starting point is 00:27:38 We've got a couple meet and greets and then obviously practice qualifying. And after that, we're going to head home Friday night. He will not be at the track Saturday and Sunday, but he will be at Homestead. Saturday, though, it's a big day for Junior Motorsports. Sadler and Allgaier both have a shot at the final four. Yeah. Sadler's looking good. He's got 16 points on the cutoff.
Starting point is 00:28:02 Justin's one behind Blake Cook, so I guess it's going to be close. Yeah. Friendly rivalry. Is it? Yeah, I know. They're buddies. Yeah. I saw Justin gave him a box of goodies the other day.
Starting point is 00:28:12 So maybe he's expecting a headache. So yeah, I guess you got to beat him by two spots or something like that. So, yeah, that race is Saturday at 7.30 p.m. Eastern Time on NBC Sports Network. Sunday, we've got Alex Bowman back in the 88 Nationline car. He's actually running double duty this weekend, so have fun with that, Kelsey. No, it's going to be easy. Really? Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:34 So, okay. Tiff and I got this. Okay. Well, Dale did win this race the cup race last year. So no pressure, Alex. I'm sure he's listening to this right now. He knows that I said that. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:28:45 The race, it'll be the last race before Homestead. So we'll see, is it going to be Harvick? Is it going to be Logano, Kyle Busch, MacKinseth? Who's it going to be? Race coverage Sunday, 2.30 on NBC. Unless it rains, then they'll move it to NBC sports now. Yeah. Yes.
Starting point is 00:29:02 I'm always nervous that they're going to move it to CNBC because I don't get that channel. Oh. They won't do that. No, they won't do that. Golf Channel. Yeah. Natalie just pointed this out. I've got to say this.
Starting point is 00:29:13 because we love nationwide. Be sure to follow them. Nationwide 88 on Twitter and Facebook as well as Instagram. Twitter and Facebook is Nationwide. Instagram is NW88. They've got exciting stuff. I don't know if you saw yesterday they did the Maniccan Challenge. They did that.
Starting point is 00:29:30 So nationwide, their guy is Lee Schwimmer. He's a good guy. He's following the team around, taking a bunch of pictures and videos over the weekend. So follow them. There's a lot of people doing that. It's crazy. Yeah. College football especially.
Starting point is 00:29:43 I don't know if you guys saw Navy beat Notre Dame on Saturday, like the fifth time they've done that in the last 60 years or something, and all their players were all over the field doing the mannequin. Oh, really? Yeah. Where did that even come from? I don't know, but it's awesome. I don't know what started this.
Starting point is 00:30:00 Did you see the Dallas Cowboys one on the team playing? No. It was awesome. I saw that they did one on Dancing with the Stars. Yeah. I don't know who started it, but I like it. I don't know who did it either. Well, there you go about Nationwide 88.
Starting point is 00:30:13 we also want to thank Exalta for its continued support for all the latest news and photos of the 88. Head over to exalta racing.com or follow them on Twitter and Facebook at Exalta Racing. I don't know what to do with myself. We're done with the Dale Jr. download. Like this was one of the quickest Dale Jr. downloads we've ever done, and I feel like there's a reason for it. Maybe a longer one next week. Do you think Mike will listen to the download to this point? No.
Starting point is 00:30:41 Yes, only because he's not. one of his favorite things in life to do is crush you for your reading of the white flag. So I thought you did a great job. I thought you're very entertaining this week. I struggled with it. I forgot to do the nationwide part, but I love nationwide. Those are good people. I'm going to see them Friday morning in Scottsdale.
Starting point is 00:31:00 What's the team outing? I can't tell you that because then people will show up. It's a team outing. But it might be. There might be fun. Yeah. Okay. Okay.
