  • Whining

    Love the show have gained respect of Denny until the latest episode of him whining about Hocevar and Blaney incident. Seems to me Hocevar is handling things like Hamlin wished he would have.

    I’ve been following NASCAR since 1968. You gotta route for a guy who’s been so close so many times for the championship yet continues to fight hard. This podcast offers firsthand knowledge of what Denny and the team are doing on the track. Always interesting to listen to. Good job to you guys for putting out an excellent show. Go Denny.

  • Best Breakdown of all of Dirty Mo

    Love the show and all 3 of you guys. I do hope eventually you guys add a second driver to the show regularly because any time the other drivers are on, it’s great too. Having a DJD style crew would only make it better! Travis being Stephen A Smith sometimes is also amazing for the show.

    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

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Is Tyler Reddick Already a Top 3 Lock?
Q: Is this a sweeter start to the season under the new points format than it would have been last year?
Yes, because the new structure amplifies the value of wins and creates bigger gaps, giving Reddick and his team more leverage and margin to absorb mistakes while others chase points.
Phoenix: Tires Wearing, More Horsepower… Old School NASCAR is Back
Q: How does the updated playoff format affect strategy this year?
The hosts explain that the 26-week points run and the one-set-of-points system heighten the importance of consistency and stage points, making bold two-tire or four-tire calls riskier but potentially more rewarding if timed well.
Atlanta: Denny Hit His Wreck Quota of the Day
Q: Does racing mentally taxing, especially on super speedways?
Racing at super speedways is indeed mentally taxing as you can easily lose your position if you're not on track constantly.
60 Wins, Being the Villain, Stung by a Cactus: Best of ADDH
Q: Does the most likely format being changed make it easier to race next year?
