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? What a steal! Come back next week for another round of the Dirty Thirty. Check out Dirty Mo Media on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DirtyMoMedia Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Recorded: July 21st 2026 | Welcome back to another episode of Racin’ With The Boys. This week we have two of the three drivers from RFK Racing, Ryan Preece and Chris Buescher. Chris just recently signed a multiyear extension with the team so the boys give him his flowers for that. Then we get into the nitty gritty, Ryan and Chris have this ongoing prank war going on against each other. The guys get into how all of that started, who pulled the first prank, who maybe went too far, and what the next prank may be. The guys then get into what each of their journey’s was like coming of through the NASCAR ranks. Chris being from Texas and Ryan being from Connecticut, both of their journeys were very different. Chris and Ryan also talk about what it’s like racing their team owner every week. The K in RFK Racing stands for Keselowski, being Brad Keselowski. They get into what it was like at first realizing that the guy who signs your checks, you’re also competing for the win. The guys finish the pod off with talking about Ryan’s absolutely insane crashes at Daytona. He says how chaotic, or maybe not, the wrecks were and how he has since been able to profit off of them. Ryan and Chris also get into what it was like racing Crown Vics and Talladega with Cleetus McFarland. The whole thing sounds crazy and one of them say it was the craziest thing he has ever done is his life.

Ty Gibbs is officially a two-time NASCAR Cup Series winner! Gibbs conquered Iowa Speedway to score the second victory of his Cup Series career, and Kerry Murphey and Toby Christie are breaking down everything from a wild weekend in Iowa on this edition of The Final Lap Weekly. Then it's time for the NASCAR News of the Week from TobyChristie.com, and there's plenty to unpack. Kyle Busch's iconic M&M's Toyota is making a return — sort of — as NASCAR prepares for a nostalgic tribute that longtime Rowdy fans are going to love. Denny Hamlin wanted different brakes for Iowa, but NASCAR apparently wasn't interested in letting that happen. We dig into the controversy surrounding NASCAR allegedly threatening to create a “made-up rule” to prevent the change and what that could mean for teams trying to improve their cars. The NASCAR Cup Series point standings are getting shaken up, and one of the biggest stories is Tyler Reddick's sudden plunge down the standings. How much trouble is he really in as the season heats up? Then we turn our attention to New Hampshire Motor Speedway for a complete weekend preview. Who should thrive at the Magic Mile, which teams need a huge result, and could we see another surprise winner? Plus, Rowdy Dragon returns with his Fantasy NASCAR Picks for New Hampshire, giving you the drivers you need to consider before locking in your fantasy lineup. Hosted by Kerry Murphey and Toby Christie, The Final Lap Weekly delivers NASCAR race reactions, breaking news, analysis, controversy, fantasy NASCAR picks, and previews every week.

Jayden Daniels vs. LSU, Lakers Sell for $12B & NFL Preseason Is HereJayden Daniels has told LSU it can no longer use his name, image or likeness, reopening the debate over how college football should honor its legends. Daniels is a Heisman winner, but Joe Burrow won a national championship and Billy Cannon remains the only LSU player whose number is officially retired and completely out of circulation. We'll get into why honoring great players makes sense, but permanently removing numbers doesn't. Plus, the Lakers are reportedly selling for a record-shattering $12 billion, Magic Johnson welcomes the new ownership group, and we've got NFL preseason football tonight. We also look at Cal bringing back the Joe Roth uniforms and the incredible story behind No. 12, Tulane's new City Edition look, tonight's Field of Dreams game, NASCAR at Richmond, and the FedEx St. Jude Championship in Memphis.Live Show Tuesday and Thursday, 3pm est.SOCIALS: https://linktr.ee/drewberquistWEBSITE: https://AirItOutBro.com #DrewBerquist #Balls&Banter #BallsShow Notes/Links:The Los Angeles Lakers are being sold to American businessmen Josh Kushner and Bob Iger in a record-breaking $12 billion deal https://x.com/Breaking911/status/2087563227353772036?s=20Magic Johnson welcomes the Lakers' new owners to the Purple & Gold https://x.com/YahooSports/status/2087577094360305697?s=20Stephanie White the perfect liberal white woman statement this week https://x.com/IndianaFever/status/2087318100253221000?s=20The best memes of the weekCal is bringing back the Joe Roth uniforms for week one https://x.com/BussinWTB/status/2087674189872259330?s=20Tulane drops City-Edition uniformshttps://x.com/GreenWaveFB/status/2087597789286936987?s=20Jayden Daniels has informed LSU that it can no longer use his name, image and likeness https://x.com/AdamSchefter/status/2087850164744516020?s=20MLB Field of Dreams Preview and Discussion NFL Preseason Preview and Discussion

Kenny Wallace gives his thoughts on NASCAR's All-Star race moving back to North Wilkesboro, Dover getting a points race, and why he agrees with Dale Earnhardt Jr. regarding this Next Gen Car.#nascar #racing #kennywallace

This week on Bringing the Heat With Trey Lyle, Caleb Barnes joins Lyle to focus on the biggest takeaways from the race at Iowa Speedway and talk the hottest topics of the week so far. One driver who has been a not-so-hot topic is Tyler Reddick, after a mistake took the No. 45 out of contention in the opening laps over the weekend. While Barnes believes the panic level is pretty high for the team, these next few races are key for Reddick to regroup and try to rebuild some confidence before the start of the Chase. With just three races left before the cutoff, Barnes and Lyle debate the drivers with the most to lose — or gain — when it comes to qualifying for the field of 16 drivers. That includes some concern about Shane van Gisbergen, along with some hope for some of the Ford drivers to use their short track speed to close on the cut line. Is Corey Heim vs. Carson Hocevar the Next Great NASCAR Rivalry?It might be a little too early to say yes. This week, fans found out that Corey Heim will not be eligible to compete for Rookie of the Year in 2027 due to a new regulation NASCAR is putting in place to determine who can qualify for the award. Barnes believes it's an unnecessary addition, while Lyle wonders if the Cup Series will even have anyone else available to run for 2027 Rookie of the Year. This week's news also brings a number of schedule announcements, including the return of the All Star Race to North Wilkesboro Speedway. While Barnes is sad to see the points race taken away, he thinks it's an opportunity to go to work on the short track package. Meanwhile, Lyle shares his excitement that the O'Reilly Auto Parts Series is returning to the historic venue in 2027. This week's soundbite comes from Christopher Bell, who reiterates some of his frustration with finishing in the runner-up spot yet again. Barnes and Lyle review if Bell could have handled the final run to the finish any differently at Iowa, and what the remainder of the season could look like if the No. 20 team does wind up breaking through to get to victory lane in the next few weeks.

Para tranquilidad de los más puristas, no vamos a hablar de silenciosos coches eléctricos ni de eficientes y pesadas baterías. Quizás el AC Cobra sea el mejor "híbrido" que jamás haya visto la industria del automóvil. Fue una de las ideas más magistrales, salvajes y revolucionarias de todos los tiempos. Este mítico vehículo es el resultado de la brillante visión de Carroll Shelby, quien decidió cruzar la agilidad y ligereza extrema de un delicado chasis británico con la fuerza bruta y el empuje de un motor V8 norteamericano, reuniendo lo mejor de dos mundos diametralmente opuestos en un solo coche de ensueño. El cerebro detrás de este imponente deportivo pertenecía a uno de los hombres más astutos, irreverentes y testarudos de la historia del automovilismo: Carroll Hall Shelby. Nacido en 1923 en Leesburg, una pequeña y polvorienta localidad del estado de Texas, Shelby estaba muy lejos del clásico estereotipo de ingeniero de guante blanco o de aristócrata europeo que competía apoyado en una gran fortuna. Era un humilde criador de pollos que se arruinó de la noche a la mañana cuando una feroz epidemia de la enfermedad de Newcastle aniquiló todas sus aves. Esa asfixiante ruina económica, combinada con su enorme pasión por la velocidad, lo empujó a las carreras bastante tarde. Su leyenda se forjó cuando, al llegar con retraso a su primera competición, tuvo que correr al volante con su sucio peto a rayas típico de granjero tejano. Ganó con una superioridad tan insultante que convirtió ese peculiar mono de trabajo en su seña de identidad inconfundible. Su carrera como piloto alcanzó el máximo nivel de gloria en 1959. A los mandos de un Aston Martin DBR1 oficial y haciendo equipo con Roy Salvadori, Shelby logró la victoria absoluta en las durísimas 24 Horas de Le Mans. Lo que casi nadie del público sabía era que corrió aquella prueba de resistencia francesa sufriendo una severa angina de pecho, obligándose a llevar fuertes pastillas de nitroglicerina bajo la lengua para evitar sufrir un infarto mortal a más de 250 kilómetros por hora. Shelby era consciente de que los coches americanos poseían motores V8 fiables y con un par demoledor, pero estaban montados en chasis de acero pesadísimos con suspensiones blandas. Por su parte, los europeos fabricaban chasis de aluminio ágiles y soñados, pero con motores enormemente complejos y frágiles. Para lograr su "híbrido", contactó con AC Cars en Inglaterra, una pequeña fábrica artesanal que estaba al borde del colapso. Producían el AC Ace, un precioso y diminuto roadster inspirado en el Ferrari 166 MM Barchetta. Al quedarse sin los veteranos motores que les suministraba Bristol, aceptaron a la desesperada enviar sus chasis a Shelby para que él les acoplara una mecánica. Tras recibir un duro portazo de General Motors, que no iba a dar motores a un rival de su Corvette, Shelby convenció a un joven Lee Iacocca en Ford. La marca ansiaba desesperadamente una imagen deportiva y le cedió a crédito su innovador y ligero motor V8 de 260 pulgadas cúbicas. El milagro se obró en Los Ángeles en 1962: en un taller y en apenas ocho horas de trabajo ininterrumpido, acoplaron el enorme corazón de Ford en el frágil chasis británico, dando vida al primer prototipo, el CSX2000. Estando completamente arruinado para iniciar la producción en masa, Shelby ideó una genial estafa de marketing: pintó ese único y solitario coche de distintos colores, como amarillo, rojo y azul, para prestárselo a la prensa de la época. Creó así la falsa ilusión de tener una enorme flota saliendo de su fábrica y las reservas llovieron, salvando la empresa. El AC Cobra 260 pesaba apenas 1000 kilos y devoraba el 0 a 100 km/h en poco más de 4 segundos. Pronto llegó el bloque de 289 pulgadas cúbicas, creando el modelo más equilibrado de toda la saga. Sin embargo, su frontal casi plano como un ladrillo chocaba contra un muro de aire en la larguísima recta de Le Mans. Negándose a perder, Shelby encargó al diseñador Peter Brock carrozar ese chasis. Nació así el extravagante y aerodinámico Shelby Daytona Coupe de cola truncada, con el que finalmente derrotaron a los intocables Ferrari 250 GTO en el Campeonato Mundial de GT. Pero el tejano nunca tenía suficiente. En 1965 obligó a rediseñar todo el chasis, haciéndolo mucho más robusto con modernos amortiguadores, para introducir el gigantesco y pesado motor V8 de 7.0 litros derivado de la NASCAR. Había nacido el AC Cobra 427, un monstruo indomable de más de 425 caballos de fuerza.

On this episode of The Dale Jr. Download, Dale Earnhardt Jr. sits down with longtime NASCAR driver, owner, and racing veteran Ken Ragan, father of former NASCAR driver David Ragan, for a trip through some incredible stories from NASCAR's past. Ragan shares how he got his start in racing, his days behind the wheel in Cup/ARCA through the 1980s, and the relationships that connected him with legends like Robert Yates, Davey Allison, Richard Petty and Tim Richmond. He also remembers being part of Richard Petty's historic 200th win at the 1984 Firecracker 400, surviving a serious crash at Talladega, and the story behind his involvement with the growth of Legends Cars – shaping the careers of many NASCAR drivers today. From old-school NASCAR stories to the people and moments that helped shape the sport, Ken Ragan has a firsthand perspective on an era of racing that's impossible to replicate.

What's the true definition of a short track? Is Iowa a short track? Why is everyone rearranging Dale's furniture!? Dale's coming out of the gates hot today with a passionate opinion on what classifies a track as a ‘short track' compared to an ‘intermediate,' debating TJ  for a good ten minutes straight. The three talk about what Iowa should do with the repave, how Ty Gibbs kept Christopher Bell from victory lane, and that the complaints about the racing aren't a Next Gen problem. The gang also discusses how the Chase standings have shifted after contenders and pretenders continue to be separated, including Ty Gibbs catapulting to second in points after his victory. Dale gives his perspective on why reducing the number of cars in The Chase field would help the storylines around the fight to get in, and talks about how NASCAR's rule about changing brake pads is something that needs to be rethought. He also touches on Carson Kvapil's second straight O'Reilly Series victory, and why they can be contenders for the championship.  Ty Gibbs also joins to talk about his breakout season, his mom's impact on his life, and why he believes taking away the digital mirror would take drivers out of the Cup Series.

"Don't buy him letters." That's what a professional told Cari Ebert when her son Aaron was two. He was "obsessed," they said, and needed to be moved toward more appropriate play. Cari ignored them. Those letters were how Aaron showed joy, and how she connected with him. Nearly two decades later, that same deep interest in letters, numbers, and dates is what landed him a job he loves. That moment is the heart of today's episode, because it's exactly what happens when we treat autism as a journey instead of a tragedy. This is Cari's keynote from this year's Preschool Autism Summit. She brings two lenses to it: 30+ years as a pediatric SLP, and 21 years as mom to her autistic son. Together they make a case that so much of what we were taught to fear, grieve, and "fix" was never the problem. The problem was the language, the linear milestones, and the compliance-first thinking we inherited. Cari walks us through Aaron's whole story, from spelling words before he could speak, to teaching himself to tie his shoes at 20, to reading bedtime stories to his baby nephew. Along the way she gives us a clearer, kinder way to talk to families and a real shift in how we show up for autistic children. We'll talk about: why the child is exactly the same the day after a diagnosis, and it's the adults who need to shift the power of first messages, and how "red flags" teach families to fear a diagnosis deficit-based language versus affirming, neutral, strengths-based language what autism is not, and what it actually is the spiky, non-linear developmental profile reframing the spectrum into a support-needs profile honoring autistic joy as the doorway to connection and learning Because we don't get to decide where an autistic child's journey ends. Our job is to keep believing there's more ahead. In This Episode, You'll Learn Why autism is a journey, not a tragedy, and what changes when we lead with curiosity instead of fear How deficit-driven language sends the message that something is "wrong" with the child, and how to choose affirming or neutral language instead Why autism is not a delay, a disease, or something a child outgrows What a spiky developmental profile is, and why milestone charts don't fit autistic development How to give families space to grieve their expectations, not the child in front of them What presuming potential looks like in real life, including how video modeling helped Aaron learn a skill on his own timeline Why deep interests, from Metallica to NASCAR, are the way in, not something to redirect Key Takeaways The diagnosis doesn't change the child; it changes how the adults see and support them Regulation creates the conditions for learning, and connection comes before communication All behavior has meaning; it's a clue, not a problem to extinguish Progress isn't linear, and growth continues across the whole lifespan Communication is a right, not something a child has to earn Autistic children are different, not less We stretch strengths instead of fixing deficits Families are the experts on their child, and the most important members of the team Try This Take one traditional IEP goal and ask AI to rewrite it in neurodiversity-affirming language, without percentage-of-accuracy measures Swap deficit words for neutral ones this week: "deep interests" instead of "obsessions," "prefers consistency" instead of "rigid" Learn one child's deep interest, and use it as your starting point instead of redirecting it Reframe a behavior you'd usually try to stop, and ask what it's communicating about the nervous system Notice a child's glimmers, the small things that bring them micro-moments of joy, and make room for them Start with connection before you ask for a single communication skill Related Resources & Links Cari Ebert's website - The Learning to Learn program, the Silly Sounds cards, and The SLP Talk Show podcast Preschool Autism Summit 2026 - Grab the summit replay bundle, a free guide, and get on the waitlist for 2027 Autism Little Learners Membership When we treat autism as a journey instead of a tragedy, we stop asking a child to prove they're worthy of our belief and start offering it from the very beginning. Cari's son didn't become worthy the day he got a job or gave a keynote. He was always worthy. Once you see every autistic child that way, it changes everything about how you teach.

Door Bumper Clear is back with Freddie Kraft, Tommy Baldwin, Karsyn Elledge and Spire Motorsports crew chief Kevin “Bono” Manion to break down another busy week as NASCAR returns to Iowa. The crew digs into the Iowa race weekend, including the strategy, passing, and how difficult it was to get around the leader in the Cup race. They also get into NASCAR's new stage caution rule, why Freddie thinks NASCAR may have fixed the wrong problem, and the bigger issue of how long stage cautions have become. Tommy and Bono sound off on the Truck Series, from inspection and body rules to the potential move to single-lug wheels and the cost of constantly changing the rules. 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.

Iowa was a survival mission for Denny Hamlin. While Ty Gibbs and Christopher Bell battled for the win up front, Denny was dealing with a brake issue that made an already demanding race even tougher. He breaks down what went wrong, why NASCAR's parts supplier requirements left his team with limited options, and how the issue impacted his race from inside the 11 car. Denny also takes a closer look at what made Ty Gibbs so tough to beat at Iowa and how much the young driver has changed since last season. Was the No. 54 actually the best car of the day? And why did Ryan Blaney look so dominant out front before losing some of that advantage in traffic? The physical toll of the race was another story. Denny shares his WHOOP data to show just how demanding Iowa was and why this race took so much out of him. Plus, Denny reacts to some of the weekend's biggest moments, including the Reddick/Jones wreck and a wild four-wide restart involving Alex Bowman and Kyle Larson, before looking at what Iowa means for the playoff picture with 100 points still up for grabs.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Fast Lane with Ed Lane: Monday, August 10, 2026

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for August 9, 2026 is: anecdote • AN-ik-doht • noun An anecdote is a short narrative about an interesting, funny, or biographical incident. // Dinner with our uncles means lots of anecdotes involving the mischief they got into as kids. See the entry > Examples: “Standing in front of a room of about 40 people … [NASCAR driver, Lavar] Scott told stories about his racing family. ‘One time, my grandmother raced my grandfather, and she flipped her Mustang,' said Scott. The anecdote was greeted with a chorus of laughs.” — Devin Jackson, The Orlando Sentinel, 28 June 2026 Did you know? The Byzantine historian Procopius wrote three historical works in Greek. In the first two, he dealt with wars and public works projects, but the third was different. Referred to as the Anekdota, from the Greek adjective anekdotos meaning “unpublished,” it contained bitter attacks on the emperor Justinian, his wife, and other notables of contemporary Constantinople. Understandably, it was not published until after Procopius's death. English speakers originally used an anglicized version of the book's name for similar secret or unpublished histories or biographies, but by the 17th century, the meaning of anecdote had been broadened to cover brief and interesting or amusing tales of events or incidents.

Bobby Burton, Gerry Hamilton and CJ Vogel deliver the latest intelligence from Texas' spirited Saturday night practice at DKR. Rasheem Biles repeatedly created havoc against Arch Manning and was described as one of the roster's best pure football players, while a fully healthy Justice Terry continued overwhelming blockers at nearly 290 pounds. The Longhorns also unveiled a dangerous NASCAR package featuring Colin Simmons, Lance Jackson and Zina Umeozulu together in obvious passing situations. Offensively, Wake Forest transfer Melvin Siani is emerging as an aggressive, physical right tackle who wants to bury defenders and could transform the Longhorns' running game. The guys also discuss strong performances from Texas' tight ends, Kohen Brown's deep-speed role, Emmett Mosley's playmaking and improved consistency from Ryan Wingo and Jermaine Bishop. Although the defense won the night, the offense produced several encouraging signs throughout the competitive practice. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Recorded: July 21st 2026 | Welcome back to another episode of Racin’ With The Boys. This week we have a very special guest and the first CEO in the history of NASCAR, Steve O’Donnell. The boys immediately start off the pod on Steve’s journey to becoming the first CEO of NASCAR and all the “luck” that went into his rise to the top. He reflects on some decisions he’s made that were wins as well as some decisions he made that may have not been the best. Will and Taylor then ask Steve what it will take for NASCAR to reach the dominance it had during the 90’s and early 2000’s. Steve gets into how every decision he makes, he tries to listen to the core fan base of NASCAR and make sure that they like the direction the sport is heading. Will and Taylor end up giving some ideas to Steve that may actually help. One of which being a ranking system sort of like how high school football uses the star system. Finally the guys get into what the possibility of NASCAR free agency could look like. Also what it would look like if there was an F1 v NASCAR series or what it would take in order for NASCAR to reach the same height as F1. Steve is unlike any CEO/Commissioner of any other sport. He seems to have his fingers on the pulse and is not your typical corporate CEO. With Steve at the helm of NASCAR, there is no place for the sport to go other than up.

The Costa Rica family vacation that Dale spent months worrying about… ended up becoming one of his favorite trips ever. After expecting long days, difficult excursions, and a vacation that might test his patience, Dale quickly found out the best moments weren't the ones anyone planned. From exploring the jungle and seeing wildlife up close, to hiking through the mountains, swimming in a freezing waterfall, and watching the kids embrace every adventure, the trip turned into a collection of memories the whole family will never forget. The chaos didn't stop there. Dale and Amy share stories from surfing attempts, a wild catamaran adventure, and an unexpected vow renewal organized by the kids that became one of the most special moments of the trip. They also talk about dreaming of life on a catamaran, why Dale may not be as adventurous as he thinks, and the little moments that ended up meaning the most.

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!
