I tell you what I could listen to Dale stories all day. You do what you need to do Jr
If only Neil Bonnett was still here, imagine the Dale stories
Even ralph
Yep they was good buddies
Totally true
Omg 😱
You know it👊🏻
I would listen to earnhardt sr stories..all day, everyday.
Michael Negron Michael I think we all feel that about him,he was NASCAR it took his life to save others.Somehow I think he’d be okay with that rip.
Same but a part of me just wish I could have the power to give back a families father/grandfather/son/husband.
10000 percent
Dale Tales is providing for other people. Who doesn't love Dale Sr. stories?
Hey JR, don't ever feel ashamed to ask/ have someone on the show talk about your dad. You guys have done an excellent job on the show! Please don't ever stray away from that!
June Bug I think I speak for most people talking about the Old Man “Intimidator” will never get old and I can’t get enough...Keep it up love it 😍
When Dale lost his life, I went up to my office alone. After I had "my cry" I wrote a poem/story entitled "The Black Car." I still have it on my computer. Keep doing what you're doing.
I think the Dale Sr. Stories are important for the sport and to show the younger fans what NASCAR was and what it could be again.
That said, I'd like to have you interview Mark Martin.
Michael Johnston yes I agree and him Richard petty Jeff Gordon and rusty wallace
There needs to be a book made of nothing but Dale Earnhardt stories. That would be a bestseller.
I still get teary eyed and feel heartbroken when I think about Dale’s passing. I still love him!
Would love to see Chocolate Myers, Andy Petree, etc...I understand the balance of present vs history. But for a diehard, I mean DIEHARD Dale Sr fan, I love the stories from the past. Thanks for bringing them to us.
I don’t think I could ever get tired of Earnhardt stories.
I hope you understand, we don’t care what you talk about. You’re a national treasure and people listen every time you speak. Keep doin what ya doin.
Selfish or NOT, as a 41 year old male who was a teenager standing outside of the cup garage entrance, where the A.R.C.A teams garage are was... i was there with a lil ole team my dad changed tires for "Commonwealth motorsports" and i was standing there and my Dad said " son there he goes, if he gets past that fence you'll never see him the rest of the weekend" and without even seeing who my Dad was talking about i knew when he said there "HE" goes, that he meant DALE... i ran as fast as i could to catch him, he was walking by himself.... singing the song, " i dont need no rockin chair" by george jones!!! When i got to him he was all by himself wearing a red button down, wranglers, boots and gargoyles... i Said "Mmmmmrr. EEEEAAAAARRRNNNHHHAARDT" spun around said can i help you young man??? i said " my Dad would kill me for asking for an autograph because he dont want me bothering y'all, but I just wasn't sure id ever get to tell you how much i love to see you up on that wheel... " he said "want an autograph?" I said "if you don't mind sir" he put his hand on my shoulder spun me around to sign the back of my race team shirt, and i already had a small autograph from Elliot on my left shoulder blade and a small one from Martin on my right... He said " well we can't have these FORD'S outdoing us." So he signed the largest Dale Earnhardt 3 autograph in the center of my back that took up the entire back of my shirt.... i didnt know it fir sure yet cause i hadnt seen it, but i could feel it, and it took way longer then a normal squiggly one most drivers in a hurry give you... he spun me back around shook my hand and said "there ya go youngin" big ole grin turned around and kept right on singing that george jones song... and i stood there in the middle of the gates and watched my Hero strut off into the CUP garage at Daytona!!!!!!! So thank you JR for having guests that are strictly there for 3..... I'll never forget that as long as i live.....
Wanna sell that shirt? .... I know, stupid question
@@user-cs3zs6jn1d brother i wish i could, I'm an over the road truck driver, and my company owes me 1900$ that im not gonna get for up to 60 days.... and i desperately need the money.... but I'd starve to death before i sold that thing... just the way it all came about, me meeting "HIM" there and just how he was so kind, and the grin on his face when signed that giant 3 on my back is something i could never get rid of.... unless Junebug wanted it... then i would give it to him... sorry brother
corey stanfill this is what the RACING FAMILIES DO, they live together and fight but they always are family. And it the best way to grow up and now bring your family up the same way. I was raised up and drove on dirt tracks in the South East and my family was there through the good and the bad But ALWAYS THERE. Your story is great and you were lucky more than most. Dale was a bigger than life MAN to me and I am 56 now but the MAN would race you for free. Great memory.
@@andyhughes9763 yes sir you're right... and thanks
corey stanfill man... that's a amazing story.
I am continually amazed of how Dale Jr. constantly talks about the effect of his father’s death on others and praises them. To go through that and be able to think of others is actually a talent. I’m a few years older than JR, but he teaches me a lot.
Who can get enough of Dale Earnhardt stories? Im not even a big race fan probably changed one tire my whole life 🤣 but I searched Dale Earnhardt stories in RUclips just because I love hearing about how legends lived. Learn a lot from it
We want more dale sr if we don't get it now we may never
We got to keep this Vibe alive
Dale Jr dont ever feel like ur being selfish about ur dale. I was a huge fan of that black 3 before a fan of urs. Listening to stories like Micheal talking bout giving a deer a ride and ur dad say dont u tell em where u got it. This stuff is gold and as a fan THANK YOU FOR SHARING MEMORIES OF UR FATHER WITH UR FANS AND HIS FANS. THIS IS THE GREATEST GIFT U CAN GIVE US. MORE SR STORIES. MANDATE IT. EVERY GUEST HAS TO TELL A SR STORY. THANK U GOD BLESS U AND UR FAMILY
I'm proud that my name is Dale Ralph! Keep the Senior stories coming.
Please keep the Dale Sr. story’s coming. First because it helps me relive back in the day, second and most importantly, the sincerity in the faces of both sides of the conversation is something that can’t be matched. Keep em coming.
Dale Sr stories are much better than the current crop of driver content. Focus more on Dale Sr before his contemporaries fade away and you lose their stories. Keep up the good work on this podcast.
Late 90s, early 2000s NASCAR was the greatest. Anyone from that time period, talking about those stories from the pre-COT days. Those are the conversations I love. Its purely nostalgic for me, but if anything these episodes made me realize how far away NASCAR is now and how I'll never be able to feel that way about NASCAR again.
To me completely honest, listening to these Earnhardt stories has brought me a lot of closure too and I don’t even remember anything about that race. I was four years old. But becoming a Dale Earnhardt fan over the past five years I guess you could say I vicariously lived Earnhardt’s career through interviews, movies, old races and written media and I really became attached to him in a way that made the 2001 Daytona 500 a very hard race to swallow and his death even harder.
So even though I am young, hearing these stories has brought me closure too and I am thankful to Junior for keeping his father’s legacy strong
Hey guys, with all due respect, the history, the old, or older guys, the racing stories, are the best part of the show.
IMHO the current drivers are too boring. I enjoy JR's perspective, and his love of the history, and his take on all things nascar.
It's very similar to the majority of the audience, i would bet. Please continue to bring the guys in that have a history with Dale Sr.,
and continue with the Dale Sr. stories. The people that tune in to this channel, will not mind at all. Thanks guys.
I love All the Old Dale stories... PLEASE keep telling them!!!
Dale, please keep the mix going. It is great to cover all areas but family is important and thank you for sharing it.
The Dale Sr segments were important to me. I grew up idolizing both of you, and without Jr we wouldn't have any of these Intimidator stories..
Thanks for trying to consider your listeners Jr, but your doing great with the content whether its old school topics or new.
#3 forever! Jr. I went to Daytona again, museum, took the trolly again, stood in victory lane. Then I just stood in front of your Dad’s statue and felt bad. Then I thought about all the times your Dad brought me happiness racing. I still have a #3 on my truck. It gets faded and I put a new one on. When I feel down about it I put on the Talladega race where your Dad came from 18 rows back and won with Kenny Wallace pushing him👏🏻or his Daytona win. I was jumping up and down both races GO DALE GO! It’s funny, your Dad was the only sports related person that I ever felt that way, I tell you what tho, I pulled for you after that because you were always you no matter what, you were an Earnhardt and that was good for me and you proved it. I hated when injuries made you retire, you had that pedigree Jr. you damn sure did. I found another champion to follow John Force, just because I guess I needed one and he was your Dad’s age and tough as nails, but these are dangerous sports racing and we forget y’all are one turn from serious injuries or being killed. So thank you✌🏻peace y’all.
I loved the dale story’s the most. I enjoyed understanding where everyone’s minds and hearty were in 2001. I loved hearing all the stories about Dale Earnhardt. So y’all was on the same page as the fans. Thanks for that
I love hearing old and new school stories..Wish we had these podcast 20-30 years ago..So much enjoyment, THANK YOU DALE and Crew!!! Y'all are AWESOME!!
Hey Dale, The history is what needs tellin. It's whats made the sport what it is. I feel like the history bucket provided the most interesting shows of the season. Nothing against the current drivers but we get those stories all week and for four straight days on the coverage of the weekends! What there hasn't been much of - up until your show - is how we got here. Your providing much of that with this format. I for one completely dig it, can't get enough of it! Lastly it gives the old guys a chance to be recognized, credited, and celebrated which they so richly deserve. Keep it up. Never forget the "history bucket"..
You are capturing lifetime of memories. Thank You so much for the wonderful memories.
Very heartbroken still years later.
Dale, Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings were my heroes. All gone but here in spirit.
John Lothrop I got one person to add to that list. Chris LeDoux. All great men and big heroes.
Dont forget Merle
Dale, you bring in ANYONE you want, we WILL listen. We WILL enjoy, and WE DO UNDERSTAND why anyone you choose is on the program.
Jr. bring those people in while they are still with us. We want to hear the stories too!
I appreciate all the Dale Sr. Stories. I thank you all for all you do. I have been a big fan since 1986. Thank you Jr. I have laughed and I cried. I meet Sr. In 92 love and respect always.
As a fan of Dale Sr., I like all the stories about him. It lets us fans who were not as close, see another side of him. I've liked all the guests you guys have had on. I would like to see you guys get some of the older guys on there to hear some of their stories also. Keep up the good work! You guys are Awesome!
I love dale earnhardt sr Stories I am a big fan of dale earnhardt sr and Dale JR love you guys
We will never run out of Dale Sr Stories. WE need that for our own healing. He was the John Wayne of NASCAR. He led the charge, he led our charge, and we’re all blessed because of it. And Dale Jr has taken the passing of the torch, and is leading our charge thru Dirty Mo Media!
The formula was perfect Dale! The old school guys had such great stories and I think everyone learned a ton of NASCAR stories they’ve never heard
The "Old School is the Best"...Never tire of Dale Sr stories...
I totally enjoy the Dale Sr. Stories. In my 66 years there are only 3 people that I have respect for that were my hero's was John Wayne, Dale Sr. And Dale Jr. If I ever in my life had to opportunity to just say hello and to shake hands are those 3 men. I'll never get that opportunity with the first 2 but, some day I hope I get to shake Dale Jr's. hand before I am gone.
Dale Jr. enjoy hearing stories about your Dad...been a Fan of his since the late 70s, This and his stories will never get old. Ive seen Nascar go thru so many changes and im kinda scared for sport to go to a talledaga or bristol or atlanta an the grandstands are 1/2 full. But its shows like this that are so good for the sport... i enjoy it.
I look forward to all the dale sr stories. I’m fine with as many as possible
Keep doing them JR people will still keep watching probably more tbh!
We all appreciate this work
Dale, this show to me is the best thing that NASCAR has going for it. Y’all honor the past; talk about the present and welcome the future. As somebody who grew up watching NASCAR and someone who is absolutely a history junkie this is pure gold. Thanks for doing this and thank you to Mike, Matthew and Leah for all they do!
Now here’s some peeps that need to make an appearance:
Bobby Labonte
Ernie Irvan
Geoff Bodine
Allen Bestwick
Bob Jenkins
Kyle Petty
Still today Dale Earnhardt fans are still getting over the loss. As a fan, I watched the Daytona 500 religiously, but in that day I didn’t. To this day I remember being awakened from my nap to be told, “your boy died man”! Not really understanding what that meant, I just hurried to my car because I had planned to meet some people at a sports bar. Ten minutes before I arrived at the bar, I turned on the radio to listen to some music and the news flash made it clear who was dead and I had tears in my eyes. I cried. I can’t watch that Daytona 500 anymore. Anyways, it has been nice to learn about all of the stories that I didn’t know.
You should bring the journalist on that covered or was friends with Earnhardt.
I think we all would love more sr stories
My favorite episode was the one with his grandma. He called her by a special name I called my grandma!! Loved it!!
Dale keep doing what you're doing. Your show is great, I look forward to seeing it and you are a great host. Thank you for doing this.
The blend of historic content and modern-day stuff is absolutely perfect. I've listened to every episode this season and really credit the DJD with deepening my love of NASCAR. Enjoy the off-season, DJD crew. Can't wait for the 2020 season to begin!
Dale, you provide sooooo much for us who do not know all of the inside stories and don't kid yourself, we all like (LOVE) to hear Dale Sr. stories as well. Please NEVER stop this podcast. You make my day every day when I walk my little buddie Frankie, a mini Daschund and yes I do listen to some over and over again, especially like the John Force podcast. Too Darn Funny!
Love stories about you Dad, don't know that I would ever get tired of them. I think Kenny Schrader would be a great interview also.
Jr, we're all very proud of YOU!
YOU are your own man!
And, not at all, in your Dad's shadow!!!
Your were great in racing, great now in the booth, and now with your own pod casts!
You have the best guests!
My world collapsed in 2001, but nowadays, even though I'm still processing what happened, listening and watching your shows, I really do enjoy this stuff again!
Keep it up!
PS. Invite me to your podcast lol
Went to that Rochingham Race. Camped for the weekend , watching practice, Bush and Cup races. The Memorials to Sr. and the #3 Team were overwhelming. Haulers, Merch trailers belonging to DEI or RCR were all signed as high as people could reach.
When JR hit the wall a grone went out from the crowd and then silence till we knew he was OK.
I’d listen to Clint Bowyer once a month. It funny cause when he drove I never felt one way or the other about him, but now I love to hear him telling stories or calling a race or doing an interview. He is an amazing person and personality!!
Dale, There are so many millions of people who miss your Dad so very much that we want and cling to those stories about your Dad. His loss has left a void in so many people that we need these stories to help us fans heal. I watch everything I can find on your Dad. I compare his passing to that of Elvis because of the millions it effected. It would be interesting to see you interview Geoff Bodine or Chocolate Myers. God Bless You
Please never stop talking about you dad! It helps you it helps us!
We miss Sr. very much. The Earnhardt stories are very appreciated. Tell any of them Ralph, Dale, Junior, Kerry, Bobby, Jeffrey, ect.
I'm glad you do a lot of interviews with the older guys. These memories could be lost forever if not done now, but I also like how you mix it up with the newer/younger drivers. This show has heart. IMO, Dale Jr. is the best interviewer in the biz. I guess growing up involved in the sport, gives you an insight and first hand experience that is beyond most ppl your age.
that would kick ass to hear sr stories all the time on here.
Can you bring on Cale Yarborough I bet you he's got some good stories
Ole Cale is from the same mold as Sr..Tuff Nuts!!
Would love to see Cale on the show. I live just a few miles from a dirt track in Savannah, GA ol Cale used to race at.
one of the greatest story tellers in the sports history
Dale Earnhardt had four more championships than Cale, so Dale was a lot better and he finished second in points four or five times. Cale is definitely a top six driver all time, though. This is my list 1. Jimmie Johnson 1. Dale Earnhardt 3. Richard Petty 4. Jeff Gordon 5. David Pearson 6. Cale Yarborough 7. Darrell Waltrip 8. Bobby Allison 9. Tony Stewart 10. Kyle Busch
Any story about your dad is something I want to hear
Jr you’re loved by 99.99% of race fans, I love hearing Dale stories and love your show when you have current drivers on too. Do whatever makes you happy bud.
Don't worry keep the Dale stories and Dale jr stories too. Most people can relate to your family because the down to earth nature.
Dale Jr. go old school all you want! I love the mix in your show! It's perfect!! Always a fan!!
Keep up it up,never get too much of the history and old stories of Nascar. For fans of Your dad we cant get enough.
I was the biggest Nascar fan up until about 2014 maybe, the sport has IMHO has really lost what made it great back in the 90s and 2000s. I'll always be a huge Earnhardt fan. I grew up in Iredell county and lived here all my life. I recently bought my first home in Mooresville on Shepherd rd and I can hear the race teams around me testing engines every other day it seems like. Every time I hear them it really brings back a lot of feel good memories of the sport. Watching these interviews have really been amazing. Thank you for doing these and creating all this incredible content.
Oh I also might have a good idea for a guest! My family owns a jewelry store here in town and one of our customers is an older gentleman by the name Henry Benfield. He was apparently one of the best gas men there was back in the day and worked for Jr Johnson and I think he also drove the transporter. Might be cool to hear some of his stories, he still lives here in Iredell county.
I love all the old time history you bring back and the stories of your dad. I have actually changed my opinion about several drivers after hearing them on your downloads. I just wanted to say thank you for your dedication and hard work you put into these downloads and the history of this great sport. I think back to when I was a kid all we had was the wide world of sports covering the majority of NASCAR events we seen. Again thank you for all you do for the sport and I look forward to many more very well thought out and done downloads in the future.
Your dad’s brother was one of the best interviews and you guys left tons on the table with him but that’s ok I wanted more of that one and now he’s gone and Grandma too . I have my own Dale story it’s unbelievable but true I’m a nobody but I met the Intimidator and didn’t even know him till I saw him in victory lane on tv in 1998 holding the Daytona 500 Trophy !
Thank you Dale Jr for doing this show you have grown up to be a great human being and to share your stories ,thoughts, and opinions....Thank you we are about the same age and really admire you you are great on tv and this show keep on keeping on....always a fan.
Ronald
Very good show with a few cool people that have been on the show. With a smart interviewer
Dale, I absolutely LOVE the download.... Our fathers passed within a couple of months of each other.... I was a lost confused 25 year old guy in 2001, I had no clue as to how to proceed with living. I actually looked to you, you made it look so easy, you inspired me, you unknowingly helped guide me through that horrible time in life. I wish I could have thanked you in person when I met you in the garage at Texas last year (Nov 2018) but A I had a fan-boy moment and B, what would I have said?? Anyways, I really enjoy this podcast, the history, and the stories about your dad. My dad was from Columbus Georgia and the stories and mannerisims that you describe about your dad make me think of mine and smile without a lot of pain anymore. Thank you.
😇 amen you guys!!!! I have spent my whole life around race cars. Not Nascar but drag racing. Dale Sr was bigger than life to me growing up!! Your show has help answer so many of the questions I had in my life. A lot of those questions where not about you guys.... but where questions about my self and my broken relationship with my father because of racing. I have not talked to my dad in 20 years because of drag racing. He is still alive some where and as much as I hope I can one day work it out. Your show has helped me be OK if I never get the chance. Racing has always been very emotional to me. With big time sponsors and network TV has done it’s best to remove that aspect from the coverage. Your show has reminded me of the fact we are all just people in the sport putting are pants on one leg at a time just like every one else🇺🇸
All that aside...think of all the interviews with the young guys...one day you’ll see a new champion that you guys interviewed and think...WOW! And that footage will live on with him and you guys captured it for us when he was much younger! Like DJ in the pits in the Goodyear commercial! Way cool guys!
I know that I am Here to Hear Dale Sr Stories & See Jr being Awesome with his Buddies, his Dad’s Buddies & his Dad’s Foes, alike. I have something Very Cool to Share with Jr about his Dad that he may not know. The Stories come from my Dad. It’ll happen one day.
You just keep doing you! You guys are kicking ass! This pod cast is awesome.
Love when Kelly and Steve Park & Michael Waltrip this year BRAVO. Miss OG JR360 btw.
Losing the greatest driver the sport has ever known in the way we did makes for a significant, if not THE most significant story in the sport. But the great news is, there are literally thousands of stories to be told to remind us of the driver, father, hero, idol, and friend he was to so many. We should NEVER forget what Dale meant to the sport so telling those stories isn't selfish, it's educational. It allows us as fans to remember with great fondness how lucky WE were to have had him for the time that we did.
So many old drivers need to be on to tell SR stories.
Your daddy was loved by millions as are you. Keep up what your doing. Love to see AJ four and Robin Miller on lol. A J was my first racing hero. Love the show from Indy!
Miller for sure
I love when you delve into the history of NASCAR, and I will never get tired of stories about Dale. You aren’t being selfish when booking those guests, but I appreciate that it is a concern you have. Great season! Can’t wait to see what the new year brings for y’all. ♥️
For me, the old stories are the best. I felt as if I lost something that day in 2001. It still hurts. Thanks for the wonderful memories.
I'd rather sit and watch/listen to Dale stories any day of the week. they never get old and if it helps you to bring closure or understand things better then do it. Dirty Mo is yours right. sometimes you gotta do things for yourself.
Thanks dale for some great memories this year on your show ! You are such a great humble ambassador for nascar and a great mentor too ! Your dad would be proud !
I love the show no matter who is on the show...every episode is Awesome. But i also love the Dale Sr. stories too.
I honestly prefer stories about old NASCAR and I love hearing new Earnhardt stories. Those years of NASCAR are like 99 cent gas. We didn’t know what we had and we’re never getting it back. Memories are the gift we have to give the new generation
I think everyone is striving to learn more to know more about who Dale Earnhardt is.....I'm learning more about who he was a person and just truly enjoying expanding my perception ....almost feels like therapy...love it!!
Dale, some of would love to see more of the history and stories about your dad.
Seeing the respect you have for the old school guys has really made me a fan, Sr is super proud up there.
In my mind, talk to the old guys, get untold stories while we can. Appreciate it
SELFISH ? ? ? Ironhead fans what to hear this stuff just as much as you Junebug ... PLEASE keep it up we love it ! ! !
Dave Marcus was one of my favorite guest of the year. Jmo. Loved hearing his stories of Dale and the struggles of being a self run and funded team.
Get the old driver like Cale, junior Johnson, Darrell waltrip, the allisons
Yeah those guys are dying off, not going to be a chance years down the road.
Thanks for a great pod cast
Loved all the stories and memories of Dale Sr., Jr making an emergency bathroom stop on side of road on the way to the airport was a favorite story and I always love Clint Bowyer
Everyone would rather hear Dale Earnhardt stories. And talking about Sr is good for the sport!
I LOVE THIS SHOW
I truly love hearing stories from the past whether its Dale Sr or anyone else doesn't even have to be about NASCAR .I always look forward to your podcast you have had many great guest who had some interesting and entertaining stories .You are a pretty good story teller yourself love the stories of you growing up and I enjoy watching documentaries like yourself and nowadays spend more time searching for interesting ones then watching
