Dale Jr. Download: Richard Childress - The Agitator

[@martystanleyofficial]

I could listen to these stories for HOURS.

[@ParasiteQueen1]

Yes. It's dangerous to be watching these at midnight. Before you know it, it's 3. lol

[@Hemireid1972]

Yea me too

[@dr.jackkevorkian1119]

Yup. I do & I am. Btw 69th 👍 😏

[@quinnlay2150]

Yep so could probably benn the the thing I've watched the longest today

[@fenderfloyd88]

Dale Sr. saying "we started it together, we'll end it together" with the temptation of better equipment; race teams, is a level of integrity that I don't think we'll see anytime soon from the current generations of racers. That's a dying breed.

[@throwingsparks]

Max Floyd ...”integrity” is a quality that passes by so many and that’s sad!

[@mattychamberlin]

True loyalty

[@shawnf820]

Kind of reminds me of Kyle Larson at Ganassi at the moment. Hopefully Kyle’s loyalty pays off just as much as Dale’s did.

Shawn F I think it will at some point. If he got a ride at Hendrick, to me, that would be sort of like racing for Chip, as closely as those two organizations are aligned. Think that is only way Kyle will leave Ganassi. Rick is probably the only other man he would drive for, except for maybe Tony Stewart.

[@BrandonSLedford]

@ Very true about larson.. i hope it pays off for him but it would be flat awesome to see him drive one of rick's cars

[@larrywt656]

I have so much respect for Richard Childress. He loved driving, but the was willing to step out of his own car and put Earnhardt in because he knew Dale was a far better driver. Then he was willing to let Dale go because the team wasn't doing well, but Dale refused. Richard was SO deserving of the Hall of Fame induction!

[@modracer55]

Absolutely!

[@jeffyoder8105]

I'm thinking that most anybody who has ever been put in to the Nascar Hall of Fame has been very deserving of the honor 😊😅😮😂❤😂😊❤

I have lost all respect for richard

[@ihus9950]

I could sit and listen to these stories all day and then some. Richard as alot of them. I hope you have him on the show again. Sure do miss my Hero Dale Sr. 3 Thanks for Sharing 👍

[@jeffyoder8105]

Yeah the list of fans of Sr seems to continue to grow which was shown by the show of support the black #3 got at the all star race and Jr got a lot of support and some more fans with not only his Cup car throw back paint scheme from his late model racing days especially with him bringing out his current race team's (which he owns) late model car which also had the throwback paint scheme 😊😅😮😂❤

[@shyicidep4438]

My respect to RCR will never end. He is a class act.

[@aaronmccall3849]

The Dale Jr Download might be the best podcast going. Love hearing the old guys tell stories of NASCAR's old days. Would love to hear from Dave Marcis, Bobby Allison and Richard Petty.

[@TheShiftersMusic]

Jr. has grown into such a kick ass interviewer in these last several years. Nothing compares to his relatability and his delivery. You can feel how much he cares about the sport, the history, and the direction of NASCAR's future. He is so refreshingly genuine. JR FOR PRESIDENT!

[@J.C...]

Yep. Harvick saying he was stunting the growth of the sport was ridiculous. Dale Jr is one of the best things to happen to NASCAR since his daddy 👍

[@Syd-41]

I doubt in 20/30 years the stories from present day NASCAR will be as good as these and other stories we hear on this podcast. I could listen to these stories for hours.

I'm lucky to be an old guy now, and I just want to say that entire yellow & blue team gave me some of my greatest memories. When the car turned black I knew Dale, Richard, and the boys were going to step it up a couple clicks and they didn't disappoint us fans.

[@debbiebeam3194]

“We started together we’re gonna end together” that mind set that camaraderie thru the good and bad times that is what I no longer see in todays NASCAR. Luv listening to DirtyMo thanks

Great podcast. I could listen to Richard talk all day!

I could listen to these stories about dale sr all day long. I sure wish someone would make a movie about the life of dale sr. I miss the days when I was excited to get home from church and turn on nascar. Thanks for the memories dale sr & jr 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

"I don't care about Geoff Bodine's little opinion. If my car is right, I'm out front and gone. If it's not, I do what I have to to get out front."--Dale Earnhardt, 1987. My favorite quote from Dale 😂 Every time I hear the name Geoff Bodine, it's all I think about.

I am really glad I found this on KZbin !!

We definitely need another longer episode with more stories from Richard Childress. @DaleJr @DirtyMoMedia loved this episode, hungry for more.

[@jordanlarkin4533]

Love the podcast dale. As a huge fan of your dad and nascar when I was growing up, I love hearing these interviews with the legends of the sport. Keep them coming!

[@jasonrobbins7143]

He never took anyone out... They might've backed into him.... lmao

[@The.Real.Timmii]

that was my only negative about Earnhardt, wrecking people, he was too good a driver to need to do that

[@jasonrobbins7143]

@ If u watch some of the other Jr. Podcasts where he had Terry Labonte on show... Terry said he would always go on hunting trips with Sr. but after that wreck at Bristol it took some time to get over... But they are racers & its what they do... Even Sr's worst enemy had respect for him. To wreck or move people out of line as much as Sr. did & to be respected as he is today or even at the end of his career speaks to his skill as a driver & what the type of man he was off the track... I would bet if he drove like that yet was a dick off the Track the racers would've hated him... yet any story you hear about Sr. especially when it comes to off the track stuff he really was a class act. Hes the type of man we are desperately missing in todays society.

[@sspp3065]

people tend to forget many off these old school guys to get where they are at it was win because you had to buy tires for the next race kind of thing.

He just rattled their cages

[@n.w.owhoknowstheshadowknow58]

@@jasonrobbins7143 most of the time he didn't wreck people for the main, he moved them. That's why they had respect from pears. Rusty is unlikable Bodie to so wrecking them was only unpopular with fans no the paddock

As a northern boy who didn't get into it until early to mid nineties, I really like these interviews when they touch on the 70s n 80s. Wish I would have realized how great the sport was. Love the 3

[@jmd76family]

Absolutely best interview ever!

[@CaptSpence]

I can’t imagine how cathartic this is for Jr. Every one of these old timers are telling him stories about his dad that he never knew. It’s almost like he’s learning who his dad was outside of being his father.

[@alwaysopen7970]

They will tell him all he will ask about and listen to. They are all huge fans of the Intimidator as well and love to talk about the old days.

[@jordanwhite8567]

All the salty fans of other racers from the 80s and 90s who talk crap about Dale’s character obviously never listened to the stories of the people closest to him. Nobody is perfect on this earth we are all flawed but this story alone tells you what a stand up guy he was.

Great interview. really found myself enjoying it.

[@johnisaacdavis6172]

We talked about short tracks and we talk about road courses all that we want.... but I think the most exciting race of the season is the Eldora dirt Derby in the summer with the trucks.... Can we see the cars on dirt again in 2020??

[@jesuschristislord6790]

For anyone interested in knowing. After Pononco 1985, the remainder of the year, Earnhardt averaged a 9.5 finish with two wins. That was a turning point for the rest of the career.

It just makes me miss my papa brashier and the old stories he used to tell me about.

Richard Childress' words before words with Kyle Busch. "Hold my watch"

[@DawgsFanLife]

Absolutely love this interview! I could sit and listen to these stories for hours on end. I sure wish the Intimdator was still around to join in! One of my favorite movies is Days of Thunder and I never knew it was based on Dale and Geoff's "theatrics."

New to the sport?

[@easyenetwork2023]

And Cole Trickle was based on Tim Richmond and Rowdy on Dale Sr. Forget who Russ Wheeler was based on.

[@sntstafford]

I would love to hear Richard's side of the story, when, at Richmond, he tells Dale not to pit because Richard doesn't want to lose the track position. Dale answers, "I'm gonna be off the radio for a few minutes" and Richard sees Dale, sitting on the door sill, cleaning the windshield, down the front stretch, under caution.

[@addisonroos5663]

[@stewartpidazzo3003]

Sorry but how in the fooOOOK does this only have 300k views?? These people are legends... I don't even watch Nascar anymore. Last race I watched was Talladega Nights BUT Stories that shape what it is to be an American are these stories and they die when they aren't told. Dale Sr was no smaller then Michael Jordan, Tiger Woods, Muhammad Ali, Babe Ruth, The Serena sisters, and that guy from that team that won alot but we all know who they are and all about their life story. Especially in today's climate where people don't highlight the real influencers of proud Americans just the ones influencing the weak haters of this great country.. is an insight that is so priceless. Thanks 😊 🙏 my family were not fans of yours but I was. They liked rusty lol Loved your dads toughness and the all or nothing approach matched with undeniable talent. #3

Man I love the stories,I thought i knew most of the stories about days of thunder I didnt know it was about Dale an Geoff @ the restaurant good stuff

[@EricCox4848]

Things got heated between those two guys in the mid '80s. It might have started in 1986 at Daytona. Bodine won, Dale Sr. ran out of gas. Riverside in 1987, Earnhardt ran over Bodine trying to get around him. He might have pushed Bodine at Charlotte in The Winston before Bill Elliott turned Bodine around, I don't know. Things got real nasty in 1988 at Charlotte. Earnhardt spun out Bodine in the Busch race and wrecked him. Then there was the Cup race, Bodine gave Earnhardt a tap out of turn 2. Going into 3 Earnhardt didn't turn the car, he spun Bodine and put him in the fence. What's worse is more cars got involved. So Sr. got parked for 5 laps. Bodine, Earnhardt, Hendrick, and Childress all got called to Daytona. That's where the meeting came from.

[@arcadiaoutlaw]

It’s funny how certain things like Dale and Geoff feud NASCAR saw as bad for the sport but in my mind these kind of things add drama & excitement. Kinda like the famous fight with Cale Yarborough & Allison’s. Like wow this is cool ! I have not watched much NASCAR in years but I’ve been really enjoying these podcasts and old stories.

[@chiefgangmusic]

I’ll tell y’all a story. I was a little bad ass kid growing up in the ghetto of Chicago not knowing any better I stole a little toy car from family dollar. I absolutely love this little racing car more than anything. The little black Chevy racing car turned out to be Dale Sr. Well even as a young kid I loved sports so naturally I became a Sr fan. Fast forward to after high school I moved to Atlanta to live with my cousin. I got a job at Walmart and I met the most die hard nascar fan ever who was a a manager there. Everyday we would talk racing. At that time I only knew about Sr and Jeff Gordon who she was a fan of but she knew everything about everything. I would randomly throw out numbers of cars to her not ever knowing if they were actually race cars and she’d nail it every single time no hesitation. Quite amazing to me. I remember her being super excited about going to the Atlanta race with her bf. Then maybe a day or two before the race she comes to me and says she couldn’t go bc she had to work and she asked if I’d like to go instead. I said yes of course and her bf and I made the trip. It was incredible. Of course she had awesome tickets with pit passes and the whole nine. One of my most vivid memories was meeting “The King” Richard Petty before the race. But what really made this race absolutely incredible was that it was one of the first races that Jr came up and raced with Sr. That’s the exact moment that I became a Sr and Jr fan. SideNote; the bf who brought me along was the real MVP. Although I felt I was pretty cool company being that I like racing, southern rock, and sorts I still couldn’t imagine what he had to be feeling dragging around this little young black kid at a nascar race in 99/00 but I couldn’t ask for a better person in that situation. I didn’t understand things at that time being straight from Chicago but when I look back on it now I realized how much of a great person he was. Moral of the story, I got to see Sr and Jr race together and treat ppl with kindness and dignity. It’ll go along ways. Blessings

[@pamelajackson69]

I started watching Nascar as a little girl, which is kind of unusual I guess because none of my family watched racing. I was absolutely fascinated with Dale Earnhardt from the start & remained a die hard fan until his death. I was fortunate enough to have been watching live during some of his finest moments. From the pass in the grass, to the time when he sat on his door frame, steering with his knee during caution laps cleaning his own windshield, to his first win in the Daytona 500 in 1998. Every Sunday I was right there, yelling & screaming at the top of my lungs cheering for a win. When he passed I cried for days. It felt like losing a long time friend. After his death I couldn't bring myself to continue watching and over the years most of my friends have followed suit. It's never been the same and they have officially ruined a sport that, at one time, had such a loyal following. These days it's not about who has the most talent, it's about who has the most money. The drivers of today are mostly young kids who come from money and they will never bring the excitement to the sport in the same way that the drivers of years past did. Back in those days most of the drivers came from poor backgrounds and had to really work hard to succeed in the sport.

Every "Days of Thunder" incident really happened in NASCAR.

[@jeffyoder8105]

These stories that Richard Childress is tell in this video really were the basis of the story lines in the movie Days of Thunder and most of the movie characters were based on people who were or had actually been in Nascar during the making of the movie and few retired and active drivers drove the cars in the racing scenes because the powers that be felt that was the best way to get the realism they wanted in the movie and from what I've seen and heard in interviews a lot of the dialogue of the movie came from interviews with the real life versions of most of the characters in the movie and that's why the movie was such a big money maker compared to other auto racing movies like the grand prix racing movies preceding Days of Thunde ,most of which tried to insert actual filmed footage of races into the movies with most live action shots supposedly happening in the pits but the quality of the editing couldn't make a completely smooth transition back and forth between the two forms of action in the movies 😊😅😮😂❤😊❤ even though the movies did do okay in the box office results but again, Days of Thunder blew all the older movies out of the water box office wis but then that was the intent of the powers that be behind the making of Days of Thunder 😊😅😮😂❤😂😊
