  • RESPECT!!!

    Denny! You surprise me more and more every week!

    I thought it was very BIG of you to go over to Joey and congratulate him on his win while he was wrapping up his live interview. I know Joey has not been your favorite driver on the track. That was RESPECT right there 100%

    Thanks for putting on a great race and like you said it was cleanly done between the battle with you and Joey!

    I’ll be at Indy Sunday and it would be amazing if I could get to meet you in person! Good luck winning the champio... more

  • Whose autograph has Denny asked for?

    Denny signs thousands of autographs each and every weekend, but is there an athlete, musical artist, actor/actress’s autograph that Denny and/or Jared have asked for? Thanks.

  • Helps with my show prep!

    I co-host another racing podcast (The Racing Roundtable), and Denny’s insights and Jared’s questions offer everyone a great peek behind the scenes of one of our sport’s stars. Your guys’ show is a fun listen ahead of when we tape ours later in the week.

    PS - Curious if now weeks after the Nashville win, has Denny learned to play guitar with his new trophy and if so, what songs is he planning on learning/already playing?

    Thanks!

Is Tyler Reddick Already a Top 3 Lock?
