This is a real treat to those that really wanna know the boring truth... Jr. should be given an award for this interview. Danny is an interesting man of few words & yet Jr. carries it along like Dan Patrick.
This is a beautiful thing to watch. Dale Jr. Is such a good man, and he's yearning to know the answers to the questions he's asking his uncle. Love, pure and simple and an absolute joy for me. Thank you.
I met Danny when I was 16. I have a huge Dale Sr. and Dale Jr. collection at home and I worked in a restaurant on the beach. We had work clothes we had to wear but no rules on hats. I wore my Dale Sr. hat everyday. He saw it while I was bussing tables and called me over to his table to talk. That was 10 years ago, now I race stock four cars on local dirt tracks in NC and I got the number 3. The Earnhardt family and there humble beginnings is what makes you guys so special i love the podcast keep it up guys
Your dad was my hero. I couldn't wait to go to my buddy dad's house to watch him. I will always love your dad. I'm sure he is proud of you buddy. You are the next best thing for nascar. Only behind your dad. That number 3 never let me down. God bless him and you all.
I was driving from Iowa to Texas once (I got word my grandmother was being taken to hospice care, that is the only reason I made that trip in one day. But while I was going south, just as you get to Missouri…it was two weeks after Dale’s wreck. I had one of the 3 stickers w/wings on it. But I get to MO and a dude is passing me. He pulled in front of me and I noticed he was signaling me. He held up 3 fingers. I did so back to him. It was one of the kindest and most memorial thing that happened to me during that time.
I LOVE IT. Just can't get enough of those stories about the old days, partyin', raisin' a little hell, gettin' into some kind of trouble, etc, etc..........lol. Those days are long gone.
Danny is so much like his mother. Or seems to be. I don't know them but I have seen some interviews with Martha. I'm sure they were all close as a family. No cell phones, or devices. Just hard work and dedication.
Thank you for giving us an intimate look into the Earnhardt family. The Earnhardt’s were our Sunday family growing up. When Sr. passed away, it was the second time I seen my Dad cry.
Having been married to a gal from Greensboro NC the dynamic of the Earnhardt family is not just them I honestly believe it’s. A southern thing! Everyone keeps to themselves and stays out of each other’s business but if you try and mess with one family member it’s almost like a Morse code goes out and the family will circle the wagons around that one person! But you don’t ask questions about personal matters, that’s taboo!
Loved every minute of watching Dale and JR racing and will always be a fan of the Earnhardt's . I know that I was witness to the 3's greatest moments what a thrill what a ride
Met him at the shop, was kind enough to shake my hand but I could tell he didn’t want to talk to me. Busy man. He seems like the type to answer but not gonna be the one asking much. Appreciate his moment with me.
I absolutely love the podcast. I legit could just spend a day listening to dale’s stories. Be crazy to see all the memorabilia he has stored away. That would be such a dream!!
I loved your dad. Not like him, I loved him. The week he died I was in Dallas and I drove to put something in the remembrances at a memorial at TX motor speedway. I sat there and bawled my insides out. For Xmas in 2000 I had saved enough and bought tickets for my whole family to a race, and it made me just sick that I wouldn’t get to see *him* race!! I had a good friendship with Tom Higgins and *he* was really important in getting me past it…Tom was a scamp!! He told me stories that nobody but Tom could tell. But I tell you, I still feel the loss.
Thank you I enjoyed the interview with Danny and getting to know a little about him and how it was back then. He’s an interesting guy and I can clearly see the feelings and emotions he has behind those eyes. You do a fantastic job with interviewing folks especially family and close friends beautifully done Jr.
This was amazing. Wow. You can def Danny is an Earnhardt. He is intense guy , low key, serious, but A passion and love that is second to none. Damn this was great to see, as uncomfortable as it was sometimes. . Thanks Uncle Danny. I promise you all Earnhardt fans needed this. Great Job.
Yeah, I watched a video with Kerry taking the Stapletons on a tour around Kannapolis and places he grew up , and told stories of meeting Dale, Dale Jr., Kelly and his Earnhardt family members, ,a museum with a story about his grandmother going and signing autograph pictures. About racing with Dale Jr in the street stocks, etc. It was pretty good, but imagine finding out you are adopted 😮, but then that your blood dad is Dale Earnhardt 🤯!! 🏁🏁🏁P.S. would you happen to be the super guitar playing, singing,song writing friend of mine, Brad Wilson from South Georgia ? It's been awhile,, glad to see that you are still kicking, because I'm getting on up in years,,but you have gotta be older than dirt 😂 by now. I don't know. Keep on rocking brother. B.R.
I look fwd to these episodes more than my local weather, Danny is truly a man of tht old school “man of few words generation & I LOVE IT. My Dad use to always tell me “why use 7 words when 4 will do”. Danny seems to have tht mentality.
Danny is sure is straight to the point. Dale had two brothers Randy and Danny and two sisters Cathy and Kaye. Danny was part of Dale Earnhardt Inc. when Dale Jr. drove the 8 car as a crew member and was part of the pit crew when Junior won the Pepsi 400 and his 2004 Daytona 500 win.
DaleJr your uncle Danny sounds so much like your daddy. Cool to hear your uncle Danny talk about the great billy Scott. Met your uncle Danny at jr motorsports couple years ago.
first i,ve seen this since Danny passed --- who knew ...... all 3 of Martha s sons are now gone , how sad !!! i would have loved a part 2 with Danny ..... RIP
You ain't a kiddin!!! .........or even outright BANNED from a particular race track. 'Ole Ralph was a true legend up around those parts. I sure wish I could've been there to see him race.
This is gold... I never even knew who Danny Earnhardt was... even though I'd heard the name before a lot... Junior knows this man.. the interview style was off the hook fantastic! Being an Earnhardt fan from way back, these stories paint pictures.
They Once Asked Dale Earnhardt.."If There Was One Driver You Could Bring Back To Race Against...Who Would It Be? Curtis Turner? FireBall? Who??" Earnhardt Quickly Replied "Ralph Earnhardt Hands Down"...🏁🏁🏁
600.00 for "carrying" tires for "1" race !!! That was good money in the 90s. Man I'd a been a tire carrying fool. 😂 I would a had at least 3 pit stalls covered ours and one on each side. At least 1500 clear money.
Champions of their sport..changes and improoves that sport from what they bring to the table. Dale..brought tough competitiveness like a hammer..knew a race car inside and out..and 'could see the air'..this sport we love..Nascar, has also changed after Dales passing. NO OTHER NASCAR DRIVER impacted this sport as musch as Dale Earnhardt. from the time he entered until his passing. there will always be Dale hatters, simply because he is Dale Earnhardt and they aren't.
Another amazing interview/podcast. Hearing Danny talk reminds me of your Dad. I had a couple of very short interactions with Dale Sr. at Sports Image and can see the similarities in the cadence and tone of their voices as well as the quietness in both. I remember thinking that Dale Sr. seemed reluctant to say too much in front of people he didn't know that well. At least, that was my take on him. But he also seemed more approachable away from the track than most might think, but also understood the power and aura of his personality. Also, there was a funny story he once told all of us (at Sports Image) about a new car he bought for Teresa that he put in a ditch one night. At least he laughed about it.
Man.. I am awfully glad he did this interview. You know though I just came across it. I can't watch it yet. All families have tough times but I swear it seems like they sure have.
Well I hope someone does the Earnhardt ancestry for Dale Jr . I’m wondering now if he knows his great grandparents name . Every time I watch these podcasts I’m amazed at his memory . But this one I was surprised by .
I live next to road Atlanta. My dad told me about watching dale run there. What I would give to see a cup race there or Jr running this week in at the hsr vintage races in a old cup car.
@@judyturner3850 howdy, born and raised here in the foothills of NC but dont know any of my family on the Minton side. thanks for the comment hope you have a great week.
Most of my other Minton relatives were from South Carolina..I am in the same boat as you. There were 8 of us kids, me being the youngest. We sure did not do much traveling either. Glad to know there are Mintons out there.Stay well and 😊 happy..God bless you and yours..Judy
Dale was a hard man on his family . Jr. , Kelly & Kerrie. I'd say his wives to accept the last one. I wont say her name. Dale was my driver & I cried my eyes out the day he died . I can't watch videos about Dale without crying. I enjoy these podcasts so much. Especially the ones with the family.I think Jr. And Kelly are close like my little brother and I, we came up hard. I lost my dad at 6 yrs old and got a lousy stepfather. My brother & my cousin and I raced every thanks to my Uncle. We had a blast. Racing saved us . Thanks for these podcast 's ! They are great ! I got my name on Dale Jr's mountain dew car ! That was better then an autograph!
Funny you mention Geoff Bodine. In Geoff's brief super-modified career at Oswego Speedway he and my Dad, Nolan Swift, tangled on the track and both spun out. Geoff gets out of his car and goes over to Dad still in his car, yelling "why don't you get out of racing old man". Dad was not confrontational, but my Mom went to her grave booing that man!
I love hearing these stories about the family that aren't heart family and tell Junior and Carrie how about Junior and Carrie going to the hotel room getting drunk and Cary passing out and then throwing up these stories about Earnhardt family when Dale was younger starting on when Ralph died passed on and it's just amazing to hear all these stories it's amazing I love you guys I love the Earnhardt's love you guys love you Dale jr. Love your family your family is amazing I love Danny to Danny's awesome
But that’s the kind of stuff that non drinkers do when they do drink once in a while 🤔😂 or if they hang out with ken Schrader, the garage area alcoholic or a better way to say it is the garage area party animal
What happened? Was he ill? I wonder if he was ill during this interview and knew he didn’t have much time left? Well, RIP Danny Earnhardt. Glad Dale Jr. had this opportunity.
I doubt we will learn abt it cause its private earnhardt family information. But it may have not been anything wrong and it was just his time to go back home and be with his brother
It's always amazed me what little Jr actually knows about a lot his life and upbringing compared to all the others is fascinating not hating just saying
I drive by the old Concord Speedway (the one on 601, is that the one he's talking about??) every day, and it hurts my heart to know it is long gone... shoot, just before they started tearing it down I bought a Celica Supra parts car from one of the shops located behind the track. Crazy the car lasted longer than the speedway (mostly torn down, aside from the running gear, which I need to pull and send to a buddy down in Georgia for one of his projects, he's sending me a 20R for a 77 Celica GT Liftback like my Dad owned when I was like 9-13 years old). Crazy how quickly things have changed in this area!!!
I know the Concord track relocated repeatedly so I wasn't sure if he was meaning one of the earlier locations... figured maybe he was talking about an earlier one but wasn't sure.
Wow...only 3 months later and he's gone. So glad Jr got to do this interview before Danny's passing. Thoughts and prayers with the Earnhardt family.
Q
What was Danny's cause of death?
@@atvatv8391cancer
This is a real treat to those that really wanna know the boring truth...
Jr. should be given an award for this interview.
Danny is an interesting man of few words & yet Jr. carries it along like Dan Patrick.
It was so obvious that he didn’t want to be there. 🤷🏻♂️boring.
I agree
@@durango8882 nah that's just Danny he's always like that quiet and kind of emotionless lol but still a great interview I think honestly
This is a beautiful thing to watch.
Dale Jr. Is such a good man, and he's yearning to know the answers to the questions he's asking his uncle.
Love, pure and simple and an absolute joy for me. Thank you.
I met Danny when I was 16. I have a huge Dale Sr. and Dale Jr. collection at home and I worked in a restaurant on the beach. We had work clothes we had to wear but no rules on hats. I wore my Dale Sr. hat everyday. He saw it while I was bussing tables and called me over to his table to talk. That was 10 years ago, now I race stock four cars on local dirt tracks in NC and I got the number 3. The Earnhardt family and there humble beginnings is what makes you guys so special i love the podcast keep it up guys
RIP Danny Earnhardt. Thoughts and prayers to the Earnhardt family.
that must had ben somthing if you where at the er watch them take him to the hospital
Your dad was my hero. I couldn't wait to go to my buddy dad's house to watch him. I will always love your dad. I'm sure he is proud of you buddy. You are the next best thing for nascar. Only behind your dad. That number 3 never let me down. God bless him and you all.
Since he was a rookie he was my favorite. He was a character w/ the cowboy hat & big personality.
I was driving from Iowa to Texas once (I got word my grandmother was being taken to hospice care, that is the only reason I made that trip in one day. But while I was going south, just as you get to Missouri…it was two weeks after Dale’s wreck. I had one of the 3 stickers w/wings on it. But I get to MO and a dude is passing me. He pulled in front of me and I noticed he was signaling me. He held up 3 fingers. I did so back to him. It was one of the kindest and most memorial thing that happened to me during that time.
I love seeing Earnhardt family members on here.
This has become my favorite thing to watch. Hands down. Reminds me of growing up and watching racing how it should be. Keep up the amazing content!
Anyone get the feeling this is Danny's first interview....like ever.
I think it was! 😂
He done a interview with jr before
He has alot 0f Dale in his demeanor...
Kinda bored sounding.
@@mikesowell7969 no , I think he just quite. Cry about it.
I LOVE IT. Just can't get enough of those stories about the old days, partyin', raisin' a little hell, gettin' into some kind of trouble, etc, etc..........lol. Those days are long gone.
Now that is a man of few words. That was painful but I learned Dale Jr could have an hour long conversation with a broom if he wanted to. 😂
😂🤣😂🤣
Junior got the gift of gab from his mom's side I suspect, but Dale SR knew how to talk too
big facts 🤣
The broom is smarter.
Yeah Its funny how the camera switches back and forth so much
I got the honor to meet Danny Earnhardt at Talladega in October of 2001. He is a really awesome guy.
Godspeed Danny Earnhardt.
Jr. Is just like us. Loving every minute of this and eating it all up!
Danny is so much like his mother. Or seems to be. I don't know them but I have seen some interviews with Martha. I'm sure they were all close as a family. No cell phones, or devices. Just hard work and dedication.
Jr and Mike breaking their backs carrying this interview
Love this guy....straight to the point.
It's like of was fate that Danny did this interview with Dale Jr. RIP Danny, you'll be missed.

love these stories. Thank you Jr.!!!
Man I could listen to this for days!!
This has to be one of the biggest gems on this channel to date... Awesome stuff!
My grandfather helped build that track with Mr. Harris....A lot of memories at the old Concord Speedway.
I look fwd to these episodes more than my local weather, Danny is truly a man of tht old school “man of few words generation & I LOVE IT. My Dad use to always tell me “why use 7 words when 4 will do”. Danny seems to have tht mentality.
One of the best ever episodes. Do more with Danny!

Rest In Peace uncle Danny.
Danny was a original member of the 8 Bud Crew
#3 AcDelco Busch Series team too!.

All I can think to say to y'all is THANK YOU. Y'all make my day with these episodes.
DaleJr your uncle Danny sounds so much like your daddy. Cool to hear your uncle Danny talk about the great billy Scott. Met your uncle Danny at jr motorsports couple years ago.
People that don't come up in a racing family its hard to explain or relate . But it doesn't mean they aren't close.

Down to earth kinda guy. Not polished but real. I like that!
RIP Danny. My condolences to you and your family Jr.
You gotta talk to grandma about Ralph and this episode is one of the best !
I think we need duo episodes. Kerry/kelly, park/waltrip, both the eurys, and so on and so forth
When people put bounties on you that's when you know you're the best.
You ain't a kiddin!!! .........or even outright BANNED from a particular race track. 'Ole Ralph was a true legend up around those parts. I sure wish I could've been there to see him race.

Dale was a hard man on his family . Jr. , Kelly & Kerrie. I'd say his wives to accept the last one. I wont say her name. Dale was my driver & I cried my eyes out the day he died . I can't watch videos about Dale without crying. I enjoy these podcasts so much. Especially the ones with the family.I think Jr. And Kelly are close like my little brother and I, we came up hard.

I got my name on Dale Jr's mountain dew car ! That was better then an autograph!
I remember that get your name on the 88 I did every year it was available
Raised that way. How they were taught. Dale Sr mom was the same way. Layed backed country folk.
This is awesome, I connect with these people
Funny you mention Geoff Bodine. In Geoff's brief super-modified career at Oswego Speedway he and my Dad, Nolan Swift, tangled on the track and both spun out. Geoff gets out of his car and goes over to Dad still in his car, yelling "why don't you get out of racing old man". Dad was not confrontational, but my Mom went to her grave booing that man!
If ur fast at these local tracks the promoters will tell ur team to not stink up the show....that's a fact....doesnt matter what class it is.
Danny is an interesting guy. No BS. I'll answer your question Nephew, but I'm not getting into it too much. He reminds me of me.
Doc Holiday to Johnny Ringo .....
Why not get into it? How else are these stories going to be passed on?
Priceless...
Have Danny on again sooner than later!
JR. knew just how to warm up..........took patience
Great interview
Junior's accent gets thicker when he talks to other members of his family
I do that, too! When I get to Texas where I grew up, get in a room with my dad, I can relax into my old accent!!
@@drdoloresmize5386 same here. Im from Massachusetts and have a little bit of a Boston accent that gets thicker the closer I get to the city
It's a southern thing I've tried so hard for years to lose that southern twang but as soon as I'm around family it's back
Now this was cool!
I love hearing these stories about the family that aren't heart family and tell Junior and Carrie how about Junior and Carrie going to the hotel room getting drunk and Cary passing out and then throwing up these stories about Earnhardt family when Dale was younger starting on when Ralph died passed on and it's just amazing to hear all these stories it's amazing I love you guys I love the Earnhardt's love you guys love you Dale jr. Love your family your family is amazing I love Danny to Danny's awesome
Great content Dale.
Dale jr: says he wasn't much of a drinker
Also jr: Pissed in ricky Hendricks closet due to being drunk
But that’s the kind of stuff that non drinkers do when they do drink once in a while 🤔😂 or if they hang out with ken Schrader, the garage area alcoholic or a better way to say it is the garage area party animal
Thats how race teams and racing should be a "family thang"
How can someone give a thumbs down on ANY of Jrs videos......
What happened? Was he ill? I wonder if he was ill during this interview and knew he didn’t have much time left? Well, RIP Danny Earnhardt. Glad Dale Jr. had this opportunity.
I doubt we will learn abt it cause its private earnhardt family information. But it may have not been anything wrong and it was just his time to go back home and be with his brother
It's always amazed me what little Jr actually knows about a lot his life and upbringing compared to all the others is fascinating not hating just saying
Something tells me the Earnhardt family isn't the kind of family to just start talking about the old days, they are just there.
R.I.P. Danny
From descriptions I have read about Ralph, Danny seems very similar.
I drive by the old Concord Speedway (the one on 601, is that the one he's talking about??) every day, and it hurts my heart to know it is long gone... shoot, just before they started tearing it down I bought a Celica Supra parts car from one of the shops located behind the track. Crazy the car lasted longer than the speedway (mostly torn down, aside from the running gear, which I need to pull and send to a buddy down in Georgia for one of his projects, he's sending me a 20R for a 77 Celica GT Liftback like my Dad owned when I was like 9-13 years old). Crazy how quickly things have changed in this area!!!
I know the Concord track relocated repeatedly so I wasn't sure if he was meaning one of the earlier locations... figured maybe he was talking about an earlier one but wasn't sure.
Looking at locations I'm guessing he's talking about the second location maybe? Still off 601, but near 73.
