Send us a textEpisode 548"Earnhardt:Director: Joshua AltmanDirector Joshua Altman joins me to talk about his new documentary on Prime Video called "Earnhardt" we discuss Dale, his family, his passing and much more.Drops May 22nd on Prime Video.A charismatic, working-class hero to millions of fans, Dale Earnhardt was the most influential figure the sport of NASCAR has ever known. ‘The Intimidator' spent the better part of two decades as the most visible figure in stock car racing, breaking through the confines of the sport's regional fan base into mainstream notoriety. The Goodwrench No. 3 Chevrolet, with an eye-catching black paint job, became one of the most feared and iconic symbols in NASCAR history, as Earnhardt notched 76 race wins and a record-tying seven NASCAR Cup Series championships over a groundbreaking 26-year career. Racing was his life, and it ran in his blood. He grew up idolizing his father Ralph, a respected driver on the early NASCAR circuit, and his own children likewise strove to follow him onto the track—with son Dale Earnhardt Jr. eventually becoming one of the most enduringly popular drivers of all time in his own right. From one generation to the next, racing would become the Earnhardt legacy – fueling their greatest triumphs and delivering their deepest loss.Earnhardt is a four-part documentary series that explores the legendary racing career and complex family dynamics of NASCAR legend Dale Earnhardt. With rare archival footage, thrilling races, and emotionally revealing interviews from his children, rivals, and closest friends, Earnhardt is the definitive story of an American icon, both on and off the track.www.mmcpodcast.com#primevideo #daleearnhardt #daleearnhardtjr #nascar #racing #carracing #interview #podcast #documentary #racingcar Reach out to Darek Thomas and Monday Morning Critic!Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/mondaymorningcritic/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/mondaymorningcritic/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mondaymorningcriticMondaymorningcritic@gmail.com

Remember when car guys road tested cars? With the current crossover SUV craze in full swing, those days seem to be over, and who are we to say it's a bad thing. In this week's episode of *America on the Road*, host Jack Nerad and co-host Chris Teague take the wheels of two five-seat SUVs: the all-new and mass-market-priced 2025 Chevrolet Equinox and the premium-oriented 2025 Mazda CX-70 Turbo S Premium. Chevrolet's 2025 Equinox enters its fourth generation with a tasteful redesign, both inside and out. Under the hood, it offers a 1.5-liter turbocharged four-cylinder engine producing 175 horsepower and 203 lb-ft of torque. Front-wheel-drive models are paired with a continuously variable transmission (CVT), while all-wheel-drive versions feature an 8-speed automatic transmission. The interior shows it modernity, boasting an 11-inch digital instrument cluster and an 11.3-inch infotainment touchscreen powered by Google . It also offers something the battery-electric version of the Equinox doesn't, and we'll tell you what that is, along with our overall review of the attractive SUV, in our road test segment. With a starting price around $28,600, the Equinox might well grab your attention. But how does it compare to the leaders in the compact SUV segment? We'll offer our opinions. While co-host Chris Teague was putting the Chevy Equinox to the test, host Jack Nerad was piloting a fascinating newcomer— the 2025 Mazda CX-70 Turbo S Premium. A reasonably new Mazda nameplate, the CX-70 is a midsize SUV that doesn't shy away from performance. Equipped with a 3.3-liter turbocharged inline six-cylinder engine delivering 340 horsepower and 369 lb-ft of torque, it offers a spirited driving experience. At least as spirited a a midsize crossover is likely to be. The handsome SUV features a 48-volt mild-hybrid system, standard all-wheel drive, and a towing capacity of up to 5,000 pounds. Inside, the CX-70 impresses with red Nappa leather seats, a 12.3-inch digital instrument cluster, and a 12.3-inch infotainment display. Additional amenities include a panoramic sunroof, a Bose 12-speaker audio system, and a comprehensive suite of safety features. Priced at $52,450, it positions itself as a high-value alternative to European luxury SUVs. But it does have a foible or two, which we'll describe in the road test segment. In the News Ram 1500 Express Returns: Ram announces the 2026 Ram 1500 Express, a value-focused pickup starting at $44,495, featuring bold styling and a choice between a 305-hp V6 or a 420-hp turbocharged I-6 engine. Mercedes-Benz Expands U.S. Production: Mercedes-Benz plans to produce a new vehicle at its Tuscaloosa, Alabama plant by 2027, aligning with its strategy to localize production amid rising U.S. tariffs. Congress Challenges California's Gasoline Vehicle Ban: The U.S. House of Representatives votes to repeal California's ban on gasoline car sales, sparking debates on consumer choice, environmental impact, and economic implications. Ford Cancels $10 Billion Software Initiative: Ford abruptly ends its ambitious FNV4 software project after significant investment, raising questions about the company's future in vehicle software development. Special Guest In this week's interview segment,Tyson Jominy, Vice President of Data and Analytics at J.D. Power, joins the show to discuss the impact of tariffs on the automotive industry and offers insights for consumers planning to purchase a vehicle this year.

Lance McAlister discusses the Reds 4-0 loss to the Atlanta Braves on Monday Night at Truist Park.
Chevy's Equinox entered its fourth generation for the 2025 model year and moved away from the car-like styling of the previous generations. Instead, Chevrolet pushed the latest Equinox in the same truck-and-SUV-inspired direction as the rest of its latest Traverse. This more upright styling gives the latest Equinox a more aggressive direction. The latest Equinox also joins the fleet of GM vehicles to add a massive screen to its cockpit, which also anchors the interior. Despite the overhauls inside and out, Chevrolet stuck with the 1.5-liter turbocharged I4 from the previous generation, which feeds either a continuously variable transmission in front-wheel-drive models or an eight-speed automatic transmission when equipped with an all-wheel-drive system. On this episode of Quick Spin, Autoweek's Patrick Carone hops behind the wheel of the 2025 Chevy Equinox and puts it through its paces. Carone takes you on a guided tour of the 2025 Equinox and highlights some of his favorite features. Later, Carone takes you on a live drive review of the latest Equinox. Adding to these segments, Carone chats with host Wesley Wren about the Equinox, the competition, and more. Closing the show, the pair break down what makes the '25 Chevy Equinox special.
Discovering Grayslake: Unveiling the Stories and People That Make Our Town Unique
Anthony Scala, owner of City Chevy Grayslake, sits down with Dave today. They dive into Anthony's rich family history in the car business and his journey from a porter to a dealership owner. Anthony shares his commitment to community involvement, emphasizing the importance of building genuine relationships and creating a welcoming atmosphere at City Chevy. They discuss the challenges of rebuilding trust within the community and the dealership's focus on customer service. The episode wraps up with playful insights into Anthony's personal life and his passion for fostering a positive work environment. Discovering Grayslake: A Deep Dive into Anthony Scala's Journey and Insights on the Car Business In this episode of "Discovering Grayslake," host Tony sits down with Anthony Scala, the owner of City Chevy, at Agora, a co-working space in Grayslake. The conversation is rich with insights into Anthony's background in the automotive industry, his family's legacy, and his journey to becoming a dealership owner. This blog post will break down the key themes discussed in the episode, offering actionable advice and detailed explanations to guide listeners and readers alike. Family Legacy and Early Experiences The Scala Family Legacy Anthony Scala's journey in the car business is deeply rooted in his family's history. His grandfather owned a dealership in the late 70s and early 80s, and his father continued the legacy by running the Lynch Auto Group in Chicago. Growing up in this environment, Anthony was naturally drawn to the car industry, although he admits that no child dreams of becoming a car dealer. Lessons from a Strict Upbringing Anthony shares a personal story about his upbringing, highlighting the strict parenting style of his father. As the oldest of five siblings, he felt the pressure of being the firstborn. He recalls how his father monitored his every move, which he initially resented but later came to appreciate. Anthony reflects on how his father's high expectations and support shaped him, even when he made poor choices as a teenager. This strict yet supportive environment instilled in him the values of hard work and determination. The Importance of Community Involvement Building Relationships with Customers Anthony emphasizes that building relationships with customers is crucial. He believes that understanding the local demographic is essential for tailoring services and marketing strategies. Each of the five dealerships he operates caters to different communities, and he recognizes that what works in one area may not be effective in another. This adaptability is key to his success. Community Engagement Tony expresses gratitude for City Chevy's community involvement, highlighting the dealership's sponsorship of local events. Anthony shares that they have an even more robust schedule of community activities planned for the upcoming spring and summer, emphasizing the importance of being an active participant in the community. This commitment to community engagement helps build trust and fosters long-term relationships with customers. Customer Service Philosophy Creating a Positive Experience Anthony explains that while data and demographics inform marketing strategies, the real focus should be on personal interactions. He believes that if a customer doesn't feel a connection with the staff, they are unlikely to make a purchase or return for service. This philosophy drives the hiring and training processes at City Chevy, where he aims to foster a culture of respect and teamwork. The Role of Authenticity Scala emphasizes the importance of creating a welcoming atmosphere at his dealership. He believes that the first impression is crucial, and he encourages his employees to assess the "vibe" of the store each day. According to him, the dealership has a significantly more positive energy, characterized by friendly and genuine staff. He acknowledges that while some aspects of customer service can be faked, the authenticity and kindness of the team are what truly matter. Challenges and Rebuilding Trust Overcoming Past Management Issues Anthony acknowledges that there were trust issues within the community due to past management practices. To address this, he has worked diligently to rebuild relationships and establish a reputation for integrity and transparency. Anthony shares anecdotes about how he has engaged with the community, from sponsoring local events to participating in charity initiatives, all aimed at demonstrating his commitment to Grayslake. Turning Around Underperforming Stores Scala shares his track record of revitalizing underperforming dealerships. He has successfully turned around every store he has purchased, and he is currently in the process of doing the same with City Chevy. He mentions that General Motors views his dealership as a model for year-over-year growth, even if the progress is gradual. Scala recognizes that his dealership may not be the right fit for everyone, as they cater to logical and rational buyers. Personal Insights and Competitive Nature Lessons from Sports Anthony reveals his competitive nature, which he attributes to his background in sports, particularly basketball. He recounts a pivotal moment during his college years when he realized he needed to improve physically to compete with more experienced players. This experience taught him the value of hard work and determination, lessons he applies to his business today. He believes that the same principles of teamwork and respect he learned on the court are essential in the workplace. Building a Positive Work Environment Tony and Anthony delve into the importance of creating a positive work environment at the dealership. Anthony stresses that every employee, regardless of their position, deserves respect. He shares a personal anecdote about how witnessing disrespect among employees triggers a strong reaction from him. He believes that fostering a culture of mutual respect not only benefits employees but also enhances the customer experience. The Role of Data in Business Balancing Data and Personal Interactions The conversation also highlights Anthony's analytical approach to business. He enjoys tracking metrics and using data to inform decisions, but he emphasizes that numbers alone do not drive success. Understanding people and building relationships are equally important. He explains that while data can guide marketing efforts, the real magic happens when employees connect with customers on a personal level. Future Aspirations and Community Engagement Expanding Community Efforts As the episode draws to a close, Anthony shares his aspirations for the future of City Chevy and his ongoing commitment to the Grayslake community. He envisions expanding community engagement efforts and continuing to build a dealership that reflects the values of respect, integrity, and teamwork. He believes that by investing in relationships, both with customers and employees, he can create a thriving business that positively impacts the community. Conclusion In this engaging conversation, Tony and Anthony explore the intersection of business, community, and personal growth. Anthony Scala's journey from a strict upbringing to a successful dealership owner illustrates the importance of resilience, hard work, and the power of relationships. The episode serves as a reminder that success in business is not just about numbers; it's about the people behind the numbers and the connections forged along the way. Key Takeaways: Community Involvement**: Building relationships with local customers is essential for long-term success. Customer Service**: Authenticity and personal interactions are crucial for creating a positive customer experience. Work Environment**: Fostering a culture of respect and teamwork benefits both employees and customers. Data and Personal Touch**: Balancing data-driven decisions with personal interactions leads to better business outcomes.

Tonight, on Trackside with Curt Cavin and Kevin Lee, they recap the second day of open testing for the 109th Indianapolis 500, with Scott McLaughlin fastest using the boost, and Alex Palou fastest using race trim. They also talk about the crashes from Kyle Larson and Takuma Sato. Later they look and compare Chevrolet and Honda on who looks good early on. In the second half of the show, they rank their tiers of drivers and manufacturers for this year’s Indy 500. Then to wrap up another addition of the show, Kevin is joined with Andrew Knauff of The Even Keel Company to talk about the VIP sponsorship for the Burger Bash!
