    Dale Earnhardt and Cale Yarborough surely won't be exchanging Christmas cards in 1980. The three-time champion has had quite enough of the overzealous sophomore from Kannapolis, but as the season comes to a close, he continues to stand in the way of crown number four for Cale and the Junior Johnson team. Dale and the Osterlund team are going to have a difficult day in Atlanta, and his late race effort to gain his lap back will bring his rivalry with Cale to its absolute breaking point. The two exchange blows in the media, and the points margin stands at 29 as they head to Ontario, California for the season finale. Before making the trip out west, Dale is going to ink a sponsorship deal that he will become synonymous with for most of the 1980s: Wrangler Jeans. With a major brand behind him and his future secured in a five-year deal with Osterlund, the sophomore needs to go into the last race of the season and perform. Wouldn't you know it, Dale and Cale lock up the front row for the race at Ontario, and the dash for the 1980 championship is on. Will it be four-time championship glory for Cale, or can Dale Earnhardt become the first driver in NASCAR history to win a championship in his sophomore season after being crowned Rookie of the Year?

    Dale Earnhardt has been leading the NASCAR Cup season points for most of 1980, but it hasn't been smooth sailing. In fact, stock car legends Richard Petty, Bobby Allison, and Cale Yarborough have all been within striking distance at one point or another, but attrition has kept the field even. Engine failures, crashes, injuries, and team disharmony have plagued everyone in the Cup garage, and it appears the 1980 crown will come down to whoever can manage the chaos best. And thanks to Jake Elder's untimely departure, Dale has to depend on a young, inexperienced, newly promoted Doug Richert to help keep things on track.As the season wages on, the championship contest really comes down to two: Dale and Cale. The two can't stop finding each other on track, and things are getting tense. This will be Dale's first real taste at a Cup series rivalry, and neither driver is willing to back down. Dale is going to again pick up back-to-back wins, including a triumphant hometown victory in Charlotte, but a disastrous showing in Rockingham allows Cale to close in as the season winds to a close.

He and the Osterlund Team are fresh off back-to-back wins in hot pursuit of more trophies, but the competition is heating up. The young outfit gets a lesson in stock car excellence from Buddy Baker and Waddell Wilson, as Dale has a rematch with the Gray Ghost at Talladega. After a quiet race at Nashville and an engine failure at Dover, things begin boiling over in the 2-car's garage.As the Cup Series returns home for World 600 weekend, there was a tension you could cut with a knife between team management and legendary crew chief Jake Elder. The decision is made to turn their focus away from their Cup program to run the Mello Yello 300 Late Model Sportsman race, and Jake declares he's had enough. To make matters worse, the weekend proves disastrous when a cut tire dashes Dale's hopes of a hometown victory and slashes his points lead in half. The next day, Dale and the Osterlund team get a harsh reminder of why they call Jake Elder: “Suitcase”.

    It's February of 1980, and Dale Earnhardt is hungry to return to victory lane. The Osterlund-2 car hasn't brought home a win since David Pearson filled in for Dale at the Southern 500 the previous year. Plus, with a new contract and sponsorship comes expectations, so needless to say, he's eager to hold up his end of the bargain. Thankfully, he won't have to wait long, as he overcomes adversity at Atlanta for his first speedway win and follows it up with a repeat at Bristol. He quickly goes from a potential flash-in-the-pan, one-time winner to etching his name into the NASCAR history books.But racing is a humbling sport, and his jubilation won't last long. More engine problems and a lack of speed would relegate him back to the middle of the pack, and that pressure to perform would build up again. Unfortunately, this time, the pressure pushes Dale to make a blunderous mistake on the opening lap of the spring Martinsville event, and he has a run-in with a fella you never want to cross: King Richard Petty.

The NASCAR Cup Series heads out to Riverside, California, to begin the season, and sophomore Dale Earnhardt is hoping to improve his road course performance. He will, in fact, finish runner-up to Darrell Waltrip, who, after a narrow loss in the 1979 points race, is regarded as a championship favorite for this year. Dale caps his successful West Coast trip off with a new season sponsor and a contract extension with Rod Osterlund, and he's understandably feeling at the top of his game.He rolls that confidence into Daytona Beach, where he shows his first glimpses of supernatural ability on the superspeedway high banks. He makes a last lap pass on the outside of Darrell Waltrip to pick up his first victory at the track, the Busch Clash.

    Dale Earnhardt Jr. sits down with 1994 Busch Series champion David Green to learn why he turned down a ride from his dad, what it was like replacing Ricky Hendrick, and how he navigated racing against his two brothers.After growing up in Owensboro, Kentucky and venturing into kart racing with his brothers David and (former DJD guest) Jeff, David made the transition into late model racing and found success in the NASCAR All-American Challenge Series. His relationships with Wayne Day, Mike Alexander and Bobby Labonte helped usher him into the NASCAR garage, initially building cars and making one-off starts in the Busch Series. But once Bobby Labonte was promoted to the Cup Series and vacated his family-owned ride, David was hired full-time and would lead the team to the 1994 Busch Series championship.David fills Dale in on an encounter he had with Dale Sr. where he was approached to replace his brother Jeff in the #3 DEI Busch car. He also reflects on his time spent driving for Hendrick Motorsports, replacing Ricky Hendrick when he made the decision to step away from racing in 2002. The conversation also covers David's decision to retire from the driver's seat, and how he took a position working as a NASCAR official as part of the research and development safety team, where he currently works today. Dirty Mo Media is launching a new e-commerce merch line!

    Dale Earnhardt Jr. sits down with legendary director and film producer Ron Howard to learn more about his involvement in the Amazon Prime series Earnhardt, as well as a deep dive into Ron's storied career. After finding stardom as a child actor on the Andy Griffith Show and becoming an icon as part of the famed Happy Days series, Ron made the decision to move behind the camera and began a sterling career as a director and producer. Dale Jr. was curious about Ron's process of picking a project to work on, which Ron explains can be different every time but relies a lot on his gut feeling. Ron says that the Earnhardt story checked many boxes of great storytelling as it was relatable and had larger-than-life characters that faced challenges.Ron recalls moving into projects that dealt with real-life events, which began when he took on Apollo 13. Although he originally felt that historical subjects might limit creativity, he found telling the stories in a film setting to be liberating, and it helped him step into the documentary world. The guys also chat about the films that surprised Ron with how they were received, and what he feels his greatest accomplishments in his career have been so far. Ron talks about the process of getting nominated for Best Director and how technology has evolved filmmaking and the art of storytelling on screen. Dale also inquires about Ron's decision to leave acting and move into the world of directing, likening it to a race driver's decision to retire from behind the wheel. Dirty Mo Media is launching a new e-commerce merch line!

    Dale Earnhardt Jr. relives the 2001 24 Hours of Daytona as he sits down with Andy Pilgrim, Kelly Collins and Doug Fehan. As the Corvette racing program began to take shape in the early 2000s, Dale Jr. and his father Dale Earnhardt turned the racing world on its side by taking part in the crown jewel sports car event. Doug and Andy explain that the partnership actually formulated a year earlier when the team won the Petit Le Mans. Dale Sr. wrote Andy a letter congratulating him on the win and his impressive pass to do so, while expressing interest in teaming up. Corvette reached out through Gary Claudio, who had experience working with NASCAR through Pontiac's program and the deal was set for the 2001 running at Daytona. The guys recount the testing sessions at Sebring and Daytona leading up to the race and help paint a picture of Dale Sr. that listeners may be unfamiliar with. Dale Jr. recalls crashing the car immediately in his first session, as he set out to run it like his stock car.

Dale Jr. shares a story about practicing driver swaps with his father during a NASCAR Cup weekend to help prepare them for their upcoming sports car debut.

    The future is now. Dale Earnhardt Jr. sits down with three up-and-coming female racers who are already making names for themselves on the grassroots level. Lanie Buice, Jade Avedisian, and Isabella Robusto sit down with Dale Jr. to share their stories and make it known that their names are ones to remember.First, Dale Jr. sits down with CARS Tour driver Lanie Buice. Buice is a first-generation talent who shares what kinds of challenges come with breaking into the racing scene. Dale became easily impressed by Lanie's speed after racing against her at Florence and was taken aback by her ability to go out and make lap time. The stage is never too big for Buice, and she will be one to watch in the coming years as she continues to hone in on her abilities.  Next, Dale Jr. welcomed in dirt and asphalt racer Jade Avedisian. At the young age of 18, Jade has already made appearances in the Tulsa Shootout, Chili Bowl, and the Xtreme Outlaw Midget Tour, where she won the national championship. Dale made note of Jade's impressive tenacity and confidence she shows on any given weekend, and learns more about where she gets those abilities from. Avedisian also opened up about her return from a concussion and how she made the decision to step out of the car to focus on her recovery. If you weren't a fan before, you will be now.  Finally, Dale chats with ARCA driver Isabella Robusto. She and her twin brother grew up racing each other, both rising through the ranks as young race car drivers. Isabella caught her first big break when she entered the Drive For Diversity Program, which propelled her to a deal with Toyota Racing Development. She discusses having to step out of the car for 10 months for recovery from a concussion and explains why that time away from the car only reaffirmed her passion to drive race cars. Dale also provides her with advice ahead of her debut at Charlotte Motor Speedway this weekend. She is wicked fast on the track and is only getting better with every lap she runs.  Dirty Mo Media is launching a new e-commerce merch line!

    Todd Bodine: The Cup Series Chewed Me Up — And I Let It

    Dale Earnhardt Jr. welcomes two-time NASCAR Truck Champion Todd Bodine to the Download this week to chat about their shared family history and his path to the pinnacle of stock car racing. Born into a racing family, Todd found himself in racing at an early age thanks to his father's involvement with Chemung Speedway.  Todd's older brothers Geoff and Brett would both rise from the NASCAR modified ranks in the Northeast to having opportunities in Charlotte for some of the top teams in the 1980s. Todd explains that after he assisted his father with work at Log Cabin Speedway in Virginia, he would follow Brett to Connecticut and begin his own racing career. When a big crash destroyed his car and his owner ran out of money, Todd packed his bags and headed south to Charlotte to join his brothers.It was there that his shared family history with Dale Jr. began, as he would take a job working in Robert Gee's garage on Rick Hendrick's Busch Grand National cars. Race fans will remember Dale Earnhardt Sr.'s fierce rivalry with Todd's older brother Geoff in the 1980s, which became the inspiration for the famed “Days of Thunder” movie starring Tom Cruise. Dale Jr. and Todd share their perspectives on the numerous family run-ins during that time, and Todd remarks that he just saw two drivers racing hard for glory. The conversation also covers Dale Jr. and Todd's time spent together racing in the Busch Series in the late 1990s. The two would add their own chapter to the Bodine/Earnhardt feud when they had a run-in at Pikes Peak in 1999. Todd brings Dale Jr. a souvenir from the incident, and the two are able to have a good laugh all these years later. Dirty Mo Media is launching a new e-commerce merch line!

    Dale Earnhardt Jr. turns back the hands of time as he sits down with his childhood friend and longtime race car fabricator Brad Means. The two first met on the NASCAR Cup circuit in the mid-1980s, as Brad was traveling with his father Jimmy Means, who was a mainstay in stock car racing. Dale explains that he developed an admiration for Jimmy at an early age due to his hard work and determination as an underdog, independent runner in the Cup Series. After meeting through their fathers, Brad and Dale began hanging out on a weekly basis at the track, spending time watching the races, hanging out in the drivers' lounge, and running go-karts. Brad also set out to become a racer, following in his father's footsteps into the world of NASCAR racing. Brad's dad Jimmy recognized an extraordinary ability in Brad and recommended that he pursue his talent of fabricating and hanging bodies, as there were many jobs available for skilled crafters in the garage at the time. This led Brad to work at many legendary teams like Richard Childress Racing, Robert Yates, and Roush. Brad spent many years on the move before settling in with ThorSport, where he currently hangs NASCAR Truck bodies and serves as a truck chief for Ty Majeski. The two also discuss how the Truck Series is the "final frontier of innovation" in the sport, and share their favorite "creativity" stories from over the years. Dirty Mo Media is launching a new e-commerce merch line!

    Rick Allen On NBC Exit: "I Was Crushed"

    Dale Earnhardt Jr. welcomes longtime NASCAR commentator and his former NBC co-worker Rick Allen to the Download this week. The two discuss Rick's upbringing, time together in the booth, and Allen's departure from NBC following the 2024 season.After growing up as a track and field collegiate star in Nebraska and competing on a professional level internationally, Rick first found his way into a commentator's booth through boredom. Rick explains that during track and field events at the University of Nebraska, he began picking up the microphone and saying traditional phrases such as “quiet for the start please” and “the event is about to begin”. He found that he enjoyed the experience and asked for more opportunities, which began with a women's gymnastics meet. When the hired commentator for the university's football team didn't show up, Rick was in the right place at the right time and became the voice of the Cornhuskers for ten years.Rick's journey into auto racing came thanks to a University of Nebraska alumni and donor, who purchased nearby Eagle Raceway. Despite having no experience in racing, he invited Rick to call the races through the summer. While there, Rick caught the ear of longtime NASCAR official Tom Deery who recommended he send a demo tape in to FOX and NBC, who were getting ready to take over NASCAR's broadcasting duties. After a rocky start, Rick became the voice of the NASCAR Truck Series and went on to become synonymous with the sport until leaving NBC at the end of the 2024 season. The interview covers Rick's rise to becoming the voice of the Cup Series, working with Dale Jr. in the booth, some of his iconic moments behind the mic, and what he's up to this year.  Dirty Mo Media is launching a new e-commerce merch line!
