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.

From Red Byron's pioneering 1949 title to the modern playoff era, NASCAR's Cup Series championship history is really the story of the sport itself: its birth on the dirt tracks of the South, its rise through the Petty, Earnhardt, Gordon and Johnson dynasties, and its continuing evolution into today's faster, tighter, more unpredictable championship battles.  This week, we dig into that legacy with a conversation centered on "NASCAR Champions: Every Cup Series Champion from 1949 to Today," the new illustrated book by H.A. Branham and Holly Cain. Built as a chapter-by-chapter tour through every Cup champion, the book blends vivid photography, historical sidebars and insider commentary to show how each title, whether won by a legend or a one-time champion, helped shape the sport's identity. Along the way, we talk about what separates the truly great champions from the merely memorable, how the championship format has changed the meaning of "best driver," and why the Cup title has always carried a weight that extends far beyond the trophy itself. + + +    SUPPORT THE SHOW:  Buy Us a Coffee: https://ko-fi.com/goodseatsstillavailable The "Good Seats" Store: http://tee.pub/lic/RdiDZzQeHSY BUY THE BOOK:  "NASCAR Champions: Every Cup Series Champion from 1949 to Today": https://amzn.to/4fM6Kza SPONSOR THANKS:  Old School Shirts.com (10% off promo code: GOODSEATS): https://oldschoolshirts.com/goodseats Royal Retros (10% off promo code: SEATS): https://www.503-sports.com?aff=2 FIND AND FOLLOW: Linktree: https://linktr.ee/GoodSeatsStillAvailable Web: https://goodseatsstillavailable.com/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/goodseatsstillavailable.com X/Twitter: https://twitter.com/GoodSeatsStill YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@goodseatsstillavailable Threads: https://www.threads.net/@goodseatsstillavailable Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/goodseatsstillavailable/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/GoodSeatsStillAvailable/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/good-seats-still-available/

Dale Earnhardt Jr. invites a one-time rising star in the NASCAR garage, Georgia's own Reed Sorenson. After having a meteoric rise from the American Speed Association to becoming a development driver for Chip Ganassi Racing, Reed was on everyone's radar in stock car racing. He would enter the O'Reilly Series ranks in winning fashion, just narrowly missing out on Rookie of the Year honors to NASCAR Hall of Famer Carl Edwards. Ganassi tabbed him to replace Casey Mears in the Cup Series, and before Reed knew it, he was living his racing dreams at the young age of 20. Once there, though, Reed quickly realized that every rung up the ladder in racing brought more challenges, and a series of missteps and bad deals would leave him searching for a stable opportunity in racing. Reed comes from a racing family. His father, Brad, was a longtime mainstay in the Southeast late model scene, running local tracks like Lanier on a weekly basis and even making a Busch Grand National start in 1992. Once Reed was old enough to reach the pedals, though, his family focused completely on his racing endeavors. He'd start out in quarter midgets and win his way across North America before graduating to Legend cars. Legend cars led to late models, and Reed caught the eye of Lorin Ranier during his time racing with ASA, which helped facilitate his introduction to Ganassi. Reed would experience the triumph of being one of the sports' top prospects before years of dealing with the cruel reality of the world of racing. Dale Jr. and Reed discuss his rapid ascent to the NASCAR Cup grid, his near-misses and opportunities, and his departure from full-time racing.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. sits down with longtime fixture in the NASCAR garage, Morgan Shepherd, to learn about his journey from bootlegging to becoming a multi-time Cup Series winner. Born in Ferguson, North Carolina, Shepherd followed his father Jesse Clay's footsteps into the moonshine lifestyle. It was here he honed his driving skills, and after a close call with the police scared him straight, he decided to exercise fast driving on the local short tracks. He took to the legendary Hickory Motor Speedway and began winning on a regular basis in the late model ranks. Through the 1970s, Morgan began moving up the NASCAR Late Model Sportsman rankings before winning the national crown in 1980. This accomplishment catapulted Morgan into full-time Cup competition, and before long, he would pick up his first win in the top level of stock cars, at Martinsville in 1981, driving for Cliff Stewart. Morgan drove for a litany of owners throughout his Cup career and would park cars in victory lane on four different occasions. He spent the latter part of his driving days chauffeuring rides for his own team, breaking several age-related records along the way. Morgan would make his 1000th NASCAR national start in 2018 at the tender age of 76. Morgan joins Dale Jr. for a conversation about his legendary career and his current battle with Parkinson's disease.

The NASCAR family lost a member of its Mount Rushmore this week — Kyle Busch passed away at the age of 41. And while it may seem like no words can explain the grief the entire racing community feels, we invited his longtime spotter, Tony Hirschman, to the Door Bumper Clear table to share fond memories and mourn along our side. Also joining us is the newest phenom to hit the booth, Eric Brennan, who was the first to address the television airwaves after Rowdy's passing. We open up with Tony, Eric, Freddie Kraft, Tommy Baldwin, and Karsyn Elledge all describing the past few days and remembering the kind of person, father, and racer Kyle Busch was to all of us. After that, we get onto the racing this weekend — or lack thereof, thanks to Mother Nature's weather patterns.  In Spot On, Spot Off, the crew covers: -  Should Kyle Busch be instantly added to the NASCAR Hall of Fame? - The full circle moment of the Coca-Cola 600 trophy returning to Spire Motorsports, which was formerly Kyle Busch Motorsports - Questionable weather calls for the O'Reilly Series race - And whether or not the truck race could have gone one more lap In Reaction Theatre, fans called in to share memories of meeting Rowdy and lift our spirits with some jokes along the way. In Ask DBC, we ask the spotters how difficult it is to tell the red, white, and blue paint schemes apart on Memorial Day Weekend. And in DBC Picks, the gang chooses their top dogs for Nashville. This might not have been the most fun show to tape, but it was important for all of us to get together and honor Kyle Busch's life.

In anticipation of his return to the commentator's booth this weekend at Charlotte, Dale Earnhardt Jr. sits down with his Prime Video co-hosts Adam Alexander and Steve Letarte. The guys dive into the hot topic of the upcoming Cup Series free agency, in which Kyle Busch finds himself in the most-watched position. They also discuss Hendrick Motorsports' dilemma of what to do with Alex Bowman and the rapidly rising Corey Day, who continues to turn heads on a weekly basis in the O'Reilly Series. And let's not forget Corey Heim, and what that means for Riley Herbst and 23XI Racing.  The conversation also covers the schedule changes we've seen this year in NASCAR and what can be on the horizon in the coming years. They preview the highly anticipated San Diego street race and what drivers will need to do to get up to speed on a new circuit. Finally, the guys take a look at the races that will be covered on Prime Video this season, and they make some predictions of who will be taking home the wins each week.
