Dale Earnhardt Jr sits down with Truck Series mainstay Ted Musgrave to discuss Ted's near-death experiences, his battle with cancer while driving, the time he quit mid-race, and much more. The Illinois native had a stay out of trouble mindset during his career, but unpacks his wild side that is full of exceptions. He details his rise through the ranks in Wisconsin, the glory days of racing ASA, and why he had to turn down Richard Petty's 43 seat. He shares the story of when he, Mark Martin, Buddy Parrott, and others escaped a near-death experience trying to land a plane, which missed the runway by 200 feet. The two dive into his time racing in the Truck Series, talking about the Championship that slipped out of his hands, and how he found a new home after his team suddenly shut down on him. They also break down the time his temper got the best of him, and how he would compare NASCAR today to the one he remembers. It's a conversation you won't want to miss.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. gets a true look into the inner-workings of NASCAR when he sits down with longtime crew chief and official Robin Pemberton. After growing up in New York near the short track racing stronghold Albany-Saratoga, Robin would become intertwined with the grassroots foundation of NASCAR through modified standouts like Jerry Cook and Pete Hamilton. It was through Hamilton and childhood friend Steve Hmiel that Robin made the acquaintance of NASCAR royalty, King Richard Petty. Hmiel would eventually travel south and take a job at Petty Enterprises, and when it was time to take Kyle Petty full-time racing in 1979, he made the call to Robin to join the team. Robin described the shop and team as a great learning experience, and he quickly rose from “holding the dumb end of the tape measure” to being a co-crew chief for the King himself in 1983. Robin would move to teams like RahMoc and DiGard before getting a call from Jack Roush to be part of his burgeoning NASCAR operation. After a hasty start-up, Robin found himself atop Mark Martin’s pit box in 1988, and the team would go on to have great success, nearly winning the 1990 championship. After leaving Roush, Robin had a long stint with Rusty Wallace at Penske before moving into managerial roles with Petty Enterprises and Ford. Robin would leave one end of the racing spectrum for the other when he took the position of Vice President of Competition for NASCAR. While in this position, Robin had to rule over some vast changes to the sport and some of the stiffest penalties in NASCAR history.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. welcomes one of the more polarizing stars of IndyCar, Santino Ferrucci. The two discuss his upbringing, feuds with teammates, unfinished business in the Indy 500, beef with Conor Daly, and much more. After being heralded as a prodigy in the karting world, Santino ventured into the Formula racing ladder, traveling to Europe during his adolescent years. He made a strong impression, progressed into GP3, and even became a reserve driver for the Haas Formula One team before controversy brought his career to a crossroads. Santino explains that a series of unfortunate incidents, including contact with a teammate on the cooldown lap and driving through the garage area with his phone in the car, left him in hot water with his team and the FIA stewards. As a result, he didn’t see a path forward to Formula One and began picking up races with Dale Coyne Racing in the IndyCar Series. Santino became a full-time IndyCar racer in 2019, which is when Dale Jr. first took notice of his talent. The two discuss Santino's reputation in IndyCar and how he’s working to rewrite his story with the series' fans. Drama continued to follow Santino into IndyCar, including a run-in with Kyle Kirkwood during practice in Detroit. Dale also unpacks Santino's ongoing rivalry with Conor Daly and even offers to take them out to dinner to squash the beef. Santino also discusses his time in NASCAR, including the moment on track that earned him a double bird salute from Josh Berry. He dives into life at AJ Foyt Racing and shares some of his favorite stories about the legend himself. Santino breaks the mold of your average race car driver, and he might just be the guy you should root for in open-wheel racing.
