The Dale Jr. Download

Ryan Blaney joins Jeff Gluck and Jordan Bianchi live from Naval Base Coronado – where NASCAR somehow convinced the U.S. Navy to let them turn an active military base into a racetrack. The guys share their first impressions of San Diego, debate what it actually takes to win on a brand-new street course, and how far back SVG needs to start to give everyone else a shot. They also reveal what their call signs would be if they were stationed here – you’ll laugh out loud at Jordan’s.

Ryan is sitting third in points with the playoff cutoff approaching, so where does he think a driver needs to be to realistically contend for a championship? Some say top six … but not Ryan Blaney.

The mustache is real, it's magnificent, and Roger Penske had thoughts. Ryan tells the story.

Plus: Jeff and Ryan blind-rank which NASCAR drivers they'd trust to babysit their kids, Ryan reflects on life with blowouts and upset llamas, and more from one of the most unique race weekends in NASCAR history.

From bus doors getting destroyed to Michael Jordan's motivating words, and maybe even a future racer in the Earnhardt family - this week's Dirty Thirty is one for the history books.

To start us off, Dale Jr. talks about broadcasting from an Aircraft carrier this weekend at San Diego, and the time he saw his bus have an issue live on TV at Pocono.

Then, he and Amy talk about Nicole's ride in Justin Allgaier's car to victory lane — and how it may have sparked her interest in going racing someday.

After that, the Door Bumper Clear crew discusses the Cup Series drivers' aggressiveness this year under the new points format.

Over on Actions Detrimental, Denny Hamlin sets his goal for San Diego and Sonoma, and shares the words Michael Jordan said during a pre-season meeting with 23XI that sparked DH's tenacious approach to this year.

Finally, Red Bull brethren and road course aces, Connor Zilisch & Shane van Gisbergen, discuss what they are expecting heading into the historic weekend in San Diego, racing on a Naval Base.

Dale and Amy are back with a new episode of Bless Your ’Hardt, and this one starts with a story they’ve told a thousand times but somehow never gets old: the proposal. On the anniversary of Dale asking Amy to marry him, they look back on the trip to Germany, the tiny church tied to Earnhardt family history, and the moment Amy turned around to find Dale on one knee. Amy had no clue it was coming, Dale was just trying to “hit a home run,” and somehow she was more surprised he had a ring than anything else. Honestly, she thought there was at least a chance he’d propose with a car.

From there, Dale and Amy talk about Pocono, Justin Allgaier’s win, the girls in Victory Lane, and the moment Dale’s daughter casually admitted she “kinda” wants to try driving a race car. Just kinda. No big deal. Definitely not something for Dale to overthink at all. Plus, there’s a Bay Breeze drink of the week, Dale’s latest music rabbit hole, Hershey Park stories, a Mr. Goodbar conspiracy, beach essentials, San Diego plans, and plenty of BYH married-couple fun.

As Dale Earnhardt Jr. prepares for the Prime Video broadcast of NASCAR’s inaugural trip to San Diego, he sits down with road racing experts Shane Van Gisbergen and Connor Zilisch. The guys visit the studio on the heels of the announcement that Red Bull will sponsor both of their cars at Naval Base Coronado. The deal also includes special edition cans of Red Bull featuring Shane and Connor. The guy’s chat about the impact Red Bull has had on motorsports and the importance of their return to NASCAR specifically. 

Speaking of San Diego, the guys chat about the seemingly daunting course that has been laid out over Naval Base Coronado. Both Shane and Connor have spent time on the simulator to prepare, and they’ve both paid visits to the site as the course has been under construction. With a length of nearly three-and-a-half miles, the track will be the longest that Cup has competed on since their visit to Road America in 2022. Dale Jr. ponders what NASCAR’s protocol on caution periods will be, as laps under yellow will take nearly six minutes to complete. The interview also discusses growing pains in the Cup Series, what each driver learned during their time in the O’Reilly Series, and what is on the horizon for Trackhouse Racing.
