Podcast appearances and mentions of Dale Earnhardt

Happy Friday! Let's not waste any time here — we've got Dale talking Rookies, Jeff Gordon chatting with Kelley Earnhardt Miller about her dad, and Larson listening to a fan-submitted song. We open the show with Dale discussing Corey Heim's eligibility for the Rookie Of The Year being, quite frankly, non-existent. Dale has an idea on how to revamp the process of awarding each year's driver. Next, Kelley Earnhardt Miller hosted Jeff Gordon for Business of Motorsports, and he discussed the advice Dale Earnhardt gave him, his lifetime contract with Hendrick, and bringing in Jimmie Johnson. The usual comic relief comes in Door Bumper Clear, who FINALLY had Kyle Larson join, along with his spotter, Tyler Monn. We couldn't pick just one moment, so we have two: Kyle on talking smack with his daughter about racing and a call from a fan who wrote Larson a song. And lastly, Dale had the weekend with the girls and went to Kannapolis, where the conversation turned to his dad's statue and where the girls might be in understanding who he was. That's all for this week! We will see you next time on the Dirty Thirty. Check out Dirty Mo Media on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DirtyMoMedia Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. sets out to learn more about his father as he sits down with longtime Earnhardt confidant and former MLB catcher Jody Davis. Jody had an MLB-record setting career as the man behind the plate, spending time with the Chicago Cubs and Atlanta Braves before retiring in the early 90s. It was during his time on the Cubs that he'd meet Dale Earnhardt Sr., through a connection with Wrangler Jeans. He'd find himself at the 1986 NASCAR Cup season finale at Atlanta, where coincidently Dale Sr. would win his second championship. The two quickly bonded over their love of the outdoors and made off-season plans in Montgomery, Alabama to go hunting. Dale Jr. and Jody reminisce about Dale Sr.'s competitive and daring nature. They also discuss the time Jody spent on the road with the famed No. 3-team as an over the wall pit crew member. The conversation also covers Jody's career through the minor leagues after being drafted as a freshman in college, his memorable seasons with the Cubs, and his post-playing career as a team manager all over the world.

Let's get ready to DIRTY THIRTY! Your week's been too squeaky clean — you need a dose of Dale discussing The Chase field, Door Bumper Clear commenting on Carson Hocevar, and a story about one of Dale Earnhardt's commercial props that Dale Jr. still has. We open up with Dale Jr. talking us through why he thinks The Chase field is too large and should be trimmed down to 12 ... heck, maybe even 10 drivers! Next up, Denny Hamlin had a tough day in Iowa because his brakes were basically useless. He discusses his conversations with NASCAR and the penalty they pondered creating if he went too far with his antics. Then, in Door Bumper Clear, the gang highlights the comments Carson Hocevar made about the sport "being on a ventilator" and why they simply disagree with him. Our guest on the Dale Jr. Download was Ken Ragan this week, and he had a front row seat to Richard Petty's 200th win -- literally! Last but definitely not least, Amy can't believe it when Dale Jr. reveals he still has a rather unusual item you wouldn't expect the Intimidator to have owned. All this fun in only 30 minutes?

Part Two of Two Some good news first: Judge Richard Gergel dismissed Alex Murdaugh's federal lawsuit demanding $600,000 from former Colleton County Clerk of Court Becky Hill, pointing to the "fatal flaw" sitting at the center of it.Investigative journalists Mandy Matney and ⁠Liz Farrell explain why agreeing with the ruling isn't the same as defending Becky Hill — and why they always believed the suit was less about money than about spectacle, subpoena power, and keeping everyone's eyes off the double homicide case.Then, Gregg Roman. The Middle East Forum executive director hired by billionaire gas station owner Greg Parker now calls himself an investigative journalist in court filings, and the South Carolina Supreme Court has agreed to take his appeal to keep his bank records away from the Beach family. Mandy and Liz walk through South Carolina's autopsy photo laws, the Dale Earnhardt and Kobe Bryant precedents, and the one question buried under all the noise: who gave Gregg Roman photos of Mallory Beach's body?Let's Dive In…

Plus, the crew debates NASCAR's upcoming schedule, the way races are being announced, Carson Hocevar's take on the current state of NASCAR, and whether the sport is really “on a ventilator.” And, of course, there's plenty of racing stories, arguments, laughs and classic Door Bumper Clear chaos along the way.

Mark Martin's story of resilience, raw talent, and unmatched car knowledge defined the modern era of NASCAR drivers... and today, he sits down with fellow NASCAR Hall of Famer Dale Earnhardt Jr. to discuss it all! Mark details key moments that defined his career, especially turning down the Ranier Racing No. 28 car ahead of the 1982 season. From there, Mark discusses his long and complicated relationship with Jack Roush. Mark feared Jack, but a trip to a test track and an unauthorized plane landing helped Mark realize the true level of their relationship. In that same trip, Mark and his team got reckless and totaled a group of rental cars — and somehow, the story never got out. And Jack? He was none the wiser. Racing back in the '80s and '90s brought its own slew of challenges, and Mark details several such moments, including subbing out of the car at Pocono mid-race due to heat exhaustion. On top of that, Mark raced with a hand-operated clutch in his late model just weeks after suffering a vicious crash. After discussing Mark's new book, he and Dale Jr. discuss the current state of NASCAR racing, namely the points format that Mark spearheaded as part of NASCAR's Playoff Committee. Plus, Mark shares his potentially radical idea to fix racing with the Next Gen car. All of this packed into another can't miss episode of The Dale Jr. Download!

For 25 years, not a single driver in NASCAR's top three national touring divisions has been fatally injured during a race. That isn't luck. That's a legacy written in tragedy. This is the Firestorm finale — the story of the most radical safety transformation in motorsports history, the truth behind the most persistent conspiracy theory in NASCAR, and the enduring question every fan carries: did the sport die with Dale Earnhardt? In this episode: ⚙️ The SAFER barrier in action — Ryan Blaney's 2023 Daytona crash mirrored Dale Earnhardt's fatal impact almost exactly. Watch the wall flex. That flex is the reason he walked away.

Blaise Alexander. Adam Petty. Kenny Irwin. Tony Roper. Dale Earnhardt. Five drivers lost in the darkest two seasons in NASCAR history — and only one of them gets the headlines. After 10 episodes and two and a half months, Firestorm is complete. This is where we land. In this series finale, Steve Waid and Rick Houston close the books on the most emotionally demanding project The Scene Vault Podcast has ever produced — a full examination of the 2000–2001 NASCAR safety crisis that claimed five lives and permanently altered stock-car racing. We're talking about the drivers who don't make the anniversary posts. The names that get erased when history gets rewritten. Not anymore. But closing the series doesn't mean closing the conversation. In this episode: Why crediting Dale Earnhardt alone for NASCAR's safety revolution is revisionist history — and who else deserves to share that legacy The listener feedback that made this series worth every painful minute The harshest criticism we received — and why it proves the journalism is working Debunking the biggest conspiracy theory in NASCAR history: the seatbelt myth, dissected with the burden of proof it deserves The safety progress NASCAR has made since 2001 — and why that progress can never become complacency The tracks that still worry us today, and the 1977 story that shows this fear is nothing new What's next on The Scene Vault Podcast — interviews, roundtables and a "big" announcement coming in August "If we remember Dale's part of the story without also recognizing Adam Petty, Kenny Irwin, Tony Roper and Blaise Alexander — it would be a huge disservice to their memories."

The morning after Blaise Alexander died, I walked into the Charlotte Motor Speedway Media Center and watched a member of the NASCAR press corps hold court for anyone who'd listen. Then he bellowed it: "Old Billy France has killed another one." I had never spoken a single word to that man in my life. What happened next was the most unprofessional moment of my career — and I have never regretted it for a single second. In October 2001, a young driver named Blaise Alexander died chasing a win at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Thirteen days later, NASCAR changed its rules forever. Blaise Alexander Jr. was an emerging talent — a prankster with a warrior's heart, a driver who had already won four ARCA races and stood on the verge of a full-time Busch Series ride. Then, on October 4, 2001, during an ARCA race at Charlotte, the sport lost him. His death sent shockwaves through the NASCAR community — and within two weeks, NASCAR mandated head and neck restraint devices across all three national touring divisions. For Alexander's father, Blaise Sr., that mandate was both a painful acknowledgment of what time could not undo and a lasting tribute to the son he lost. In this chapter of Firestorm, we revisit Alexander's remarkable journey: from Pennsylvania go-karts to the national stage, the early friendship with a then-unknown Jimmie Johnson, the gut-punch of losing Kenny Irwin just months before, and the family's quiet fight to make sure his name — and his legacy — would outlast the grief. No driver in NASCAR's top three divisions has died in a race in the 25 years since these safety changes were implemented. That important legacy belongs, in part, to Blaise Alexander Jr. What we cover in this episode: Blaise Alexander Jr.'s racing career and four ARCA wins The October 4, 2001 ARCA race at Charlotte Motor Speedway Jimmie Johnson's personal tribute to his close friend NASCAR's HANS device mandate — announced October 17, 2001 The "Firestorm Five": Adam Petty, Kenny Irwin, Tony Roper, Dale Earnhardt and Blaise Alexander Blaise Sr.'s push for soft walls and lasting safety reforms at NASCAR tracks The Scene Vault · Preserving the greatest stories in stock-car racing history.

When Blaise Alexander crashed at Lowe's Motor Speedway on October 4, 2001, Jimmy Spencer was watching on the mega-screens from under the Winston hauler. He went to his knees. He knew. In this episode of The Scene Vault Podcast, "Mr. Excitement" Jimmy Spencer sits down with Steve Wade and Rick Houston to share what's never been told — his decades-long personal relationship with the Alexander family, his role as Blaise's mentor, and the moment everything changed. Spencer also reveals a stunning footnote in NASCAR history: he was the first driver to ever test the SAFER barrier — before most of the world even knew it existed. In this episode:

It's amazing what you can get done in 30 minutes, and even more amazing if you do it while listening to Dirty Thirty! You'll hear from your favorite hosts, NASCAR President Steve O'Donnell & BJ McLeod, too! We open up with Actions Detrimental, where Denny Hamlin weighs in on his former teammate Kyle Busch's recent struggles and why it doesn't add up to him. Next, Dale Jr. talks about Ty Gibbs' prime years and whether they will be affected whenever the day comes where Joe Gibbs is no longer in charge of JGR. In the guest episode this week, you can't miss him if you see him — BJ McLeod walks us through being compared to Jeff Gordon in the late '90s and why his big break never came. Over on the Bless Your 'Hardt set, we're back to talking about phones, and Amy gives us insight into the proverbial journey her phone goes through daily. And last, but definitely not least, NASCAR President Steve O'Donnell gives us a rundown on the changes being made to Talladega's stages to combat fuel saving — and why they are NOT a permanent fix.

Dale Earnhardt walked away. Rick never got a single word on the record — and he never forgot the feeling. Two of the most decorated journalists in NASCAR history sit down with Tony Liberati for a raw, unscored account of what it really cost to cover the sport from the inside — the access, the pressure, the stories that never ran and the ones they wish they'd told differently. What you'll hear in this episode: The Dale Earnhardt interview that wasn't — the post-race moment Rick has never stopped thinking about How Steve built his career not on stars, but on the drivers nobody else was talking to — including the closest friend Wendell Scott ever had The "oh sh*t" moment that almost ended Steve's career after the 1976 Daytona 500 crash between David Pearson and Richard Petty The garage crew member claiming to be a Vietnam POW — Rick investigated, had the documentation and the story still never ran Why Darrell Waltrip was the most entertaining interview in NASCAR and the hardest to actually get A Harry Gant quote that caused a firestorm — and what happened the very next day when he took the checkered flag Favorite tracks that defined careers: Nashville Speedway, Bristol Motor Speedway, Darlington Raceway — and the restaurants that kept them sane on the road What both men would do completely differently if they could go back Two journalists. Decades inside NASCAR history. The stories that didn't make the paper. Rick and Steve didn't spend their careers in the spotlight — they spent it chasing the people who were. From the back rows of the NASCAR garage to the press box at the Southern 500, they watched the sport transform and lived the toll that came with it. Learn more about your ad choices.

Dale Earnhardt's crash at the 2001 Daytona 500 shook NASCAR. What came next nearly destroyed it. Five days after the worst day in NASCAR history, a single announcement lit the sport on fire: the lap belt in Dale Earnhardt's car had failed. In an instant, grief turned to fury — and NASCAR entered the darkest period of controversy the sport had ever known. A safety equipment manufacturer accused of killing a legend. An EMT who claimed the belt wasn't broken — it was cut. A widow forced into court to protect her husband's dignity. A rival driver threatened for simply touching the wrong car at the wrong moment. And an investigation that answered some questions while raising dozens more. This episode of Firestorm goes inside the aftermath nobody saw coming: Mike Helton's bombshell announcement at Rockingham — and the fury it unleashed on Bill Simpson and Simpson Race Products The broken belt vs. the cut belt: two competing claims, one devastating consequence Tommy Probst's testimony: why an EMT's account changed everything The legal battle over Dale Earnhardt's autopsy photos — and the Florida law born from it Sterling Marlin: contact, controversy, and death threats NASCAR's official investigation report (August 21, 2001) — and why Bill Simpson immediately fired back with his own press conference How September 11, 2001 brought the most turbulent NASCAR season to a sudden, sobering close The 2001 Daytona 500 didn't end on February 18th.

In this compilation from The Mark Martin Archive, Mark & Matt Martin tell some great stories about Dale Earnhardt, Harry Gant & the rise of Roush Racing.#nascar #racing #markmartin #daleearnhardt #harrygant

When the #3 went silent on the final lap at Daytona, only one window net came down. From the broadcast booth, Darrell Waltrip was still celebrating his brother Michael's historic win. But on pit road, a thick sense of dread had already begun to spread across the Daytona landscape. Ken Schrader reached the car first. One glance told him everything. Seven-time champion spotter Danny Culler radioed Earnhardt three or four times: "Dale, you okay? Talk to me." The radio never answered. At 5:16 PM, Dale Earnhardt was pronounced dead. Before NASCAR President Mike Helton stepped to the microphone — before the cameras turned, before the world officially knew — Dale Earnhardt Jr. turned to his teammates and said something none of them would ever forget. In this episode, we go inside the hours immediately following the Dale Earnhardt death — through the eyes of Ken Schrader, Richard Childress, Rusty Wallace and Dale Jr. himself. The silence. The shock. The grief. And the single sentence that stopped the world. This episode covers: Ken Schrader's moment at the car Danny Culler's desperate radio calls that went unanswered Michael Waltrip's victory, forever overshadowed by his boss's crash Richard Childress' reaction in the infield care center Rusty Wallace's complicated friendship with The Intimidator — and the water bottle he once threw at him Dale Jr.'s words that became the most heartbreaking quote in NASCAR history The storm had been building for nine months — since Adam Petty's death in May 2000. The 2001 Daytona 500 was where it finally hit land. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Before the HANS device. Before the safer barriers. Before NASCAR changed forever — there was someone standing at the fence with a camera, watching drivers die. Bambi Mattila was the staff photographer for Winston Cup Scene and between 2000 and 2001, she was on-site for some of the darkest moments in the sport's history: the deaths of Adam Petty, Kenny Irwin, Blaise Alexander and Dale Earnhardt in the 2001 Daytona 500. This isn't the story the cameras showed you. This is what it felt like to be standing there. In this episode: What Bambi saw — and felt — in the moments after Adam Petty's accident at New Hampshire Why Kenny Irwin's crash left her furious: "I was so mad that nothing had changed." The chilling moment on pit road when she knew Dale Earnhardt wasn't coming back How she kept her composure on the outside while breaking down on the inside: "I'm just so sick of watching people die." Why Dale Earnhardt's death was the turning point — and what she would have done if NASCAR hadn't finally acted The role of the media community in processing collective grief — and the moment one reporter finally snapped About Bambi Mattila: Bambi served as staff photographer for Winston Cup Scene / NASCAR Scene from the late 1990s through the sport's most turbulent era. She was present at more fatal racing accidents than perhaps any other photographer in the sport — and she's never told this story publicly, until now. "If it can happen to Dale Earnhardt — the Intimidator, ten feet tall and bulletproof — it can happen to anybody. That day, our house of cards came tumbling down." Learn more about your ad choices.

Dale Earnhardt. 2001 Daytona 500. The final hours of The Intimidator — reconstructed lap by lap, conversation by conversation, from the people who were there. On February 18, 2001, Earnhardt arrived at Daytona International Speedway on a perfect, Chamber of Commerce morning — and left in silence. This is the story of everything that happened before the crash that changed NASCAR history forever. What did Earnhardt say to his spotter two days before the race — and why did that spotter almost not show up on race day? What scripture did Stevie Waltrip press into Earnhardt's hand before the engines fired? What were the last words Dale Earnhardt ever spoke on the radio? And why, during the race itself, did Earnhardt warn Richard Childress that NASCAR's cars were going to kill somebody? In this episode: The Terry Bradshaw promo spin — and the moment Earnhardt deliberately scared him on the apron Danny Culler's explosive falling-out with Earnhardt, and the Sunday morning phone call that brought him back Ward Burton's shoulder-bump on the way to driver introductions — the only way he knew how to say it Earnhardt's final televised interview with Matt Yocum, minutes before the green flag The Proverbs 18:10 scripture, and Max Helton's haunting memory of a handshake that lasted a moment too long "The big one" on Lap 175 — and Earnhardt's chilling radio call to Childress in the aftermath Sterling Marlin, Ken Schrader and the final turn that ended an era Earnhardt's last words: "Tell Michael to run low." This isn't just a Dale Earnhardt crash story. It's a portrait of a man — the seven-time champion, the father, the friend — in the final hours of his life. Every conversation. Every decision. Every fork in the road that didn't change what was coming. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

We managed to jam-pack this episode of the Dirty Thirty with highlights from SIX of Dirty Mo Media's shows this week. Our hosts need to stop making it so hard to pick with these banger moments — this show is only thirty minutes, guys! First up, Denny Hamlin predicts where his final win total lands and talks about what it meant to have his family in Las Vegas for victory number 61. A day later and possibly a dollar shorter from an extra night on the strip, we hear from the fans of Door Bumper Clear in Reaction Theatre, where Wood Brothers Racing President Jon Wood shares what he would personally do to will Josh Berry into some better finishes. After that, legendary wrestler Magnum T.A. describes the circumstances surrounding the car wreck that almost took his life, and still affects him to this day. In Dirty Air this week, Dale Jr. reacts to the news that Carson Hocevar will run a throwback scheme of his dad's — and it just so happens to be Jr.'s favorite paint scheme of the Intimidator's. Speaking of favorites, our favorite power couple came back from spring break, so you know Dale & Amy have tons to discuss about skiing, falling, and laughing all the way. Lastly, Jeff Gluck interviewed Ricky Stenhouse Jr. to get some insight on what goes into (and comes out of) throwing a punch, after Daniel Suarez & Ross Chastain almost got physical on pit road last weekend.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. sits down with a pillar of the short track racing community this week, longtime racer and chassis builder Jay Hedgecock. After growing up in a family with rich NASCAR history and attending the local modified race shops with his father, Jay entered the racing world himself, racing a micro midget that he dug out of his uncle's junkyard. The work he'd do to get the midget back into racing condition would begin 55 years in the field. He'd receive the education of a lifetime when he happened upon a job in Tex Powell's shop, after sharpening some drill bits for the automotive legend. Jay had firsthand experience working on NASCAR Cup cars through Tex, and before long, thanks to friend Howard Stewart, he'd find himself behind the wheel of a stock car as well. After spending years building and racing late model sportsman cars, Jay would return to his true love in racing: the modfieds. He'd go on to win multiple championships with the Southern Modified Auto Racing Tour and track titles all over the heavily contested Virginia/North Carolina region. All the while, he continued his car building efforts and went on to build short track machines for Richard Petty and Dale Earnhardt. Today, Jay remains one of the most successful and celebrated car builders in the country, supplying late model stocks to much of the CARS Tour field and NASCAR Weekly champions.
