  • The Best

    If I could only have one podcast to ever listen to on my phone, Dale Junior is the one. He is probably the best interviewer of anyone I’ve heard and I’ve listened to a lot over my many years. He really listened to what his guests say, and respond and act accordingly. Love hearing his interview interviews with the legend especially keep it up Dale.

  • Explicit rating

    Would like to know if your podcasts at Dirty Mo are changing to explicit content on a regular basis. Have 12 yr old granddaughter listening at times, and cannot appreciate explicit content, so will have to stop following, if this is the case. NASCAR used to be family oriented--not so much anymore, I guess.

  • Bad editing

    The last 2 months of the podcast has been plagued with bad editing and bad cuts to ads definitely need a new editor

  • Editing needs work

    Love the podcast but something’s wrong with the editing on Bless Your Hardt at least on the Apple podcast platform. There are always 7 or 8 times when 20-30 second segments are repeated and it’s not the podcast skipping…it’s like they are spliced back to back. Also happens on Denny’s podcast. Doesn’t seem to happen on DBC or Dirty Air.

  • Getting harder to make it through a whole episode.

    I’m a long time listener but between Travis’ obnoxious takes on everything and Dale rarely letting TJ, or anyone for that matter, finish a sentence, it’s hard to make it through the Dirty Air episodes anymore. I do still enjoy the guest shows when Dale is a little calmer, has a decent back and forth conversation with the other person at the table and we don’t have to listen to Travis.
