I love how these pull people in with the allure of racing stories and actually give them invaluable life advice too. The world needs this stuff.
I love the life lessons I've learned on Jr's podcast.
The look on Juniors face as he listens to Dad stories is Priceless.
Smile from ear to ear,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
Ned was right when he said that Dale didn't give any quarter to other competitors on the track. I remember the first year Childress had 2 cars at Daytona, they asked Earnhardt how he felt about having a teammate. He said "I don't need a teammate, I'll wrinkle the fenders on that 31 just like any other car". I'm pretty sure he meant it.
I remember Darrell Waltrip saying Dale sent him a Christmas card every year. One year he didn't get one. When Darrell saw him he innocently asked if he was too busy or forgot not meaning anything by it. Dale told him "I don't have to send you a card every year" I remember Dale not being fond of having Skinner around. I use to go to the July race at Pocono . The one year Dale won. He had a fast car and so didn't Skinner . I remember Dale behind Skinner coming down the front straightaway . Dale was "drafting" Skinner. Ok ,it wasn't drafting , it was wheelbarrowing Skinner down the track. Dale was jammed up under Skinner and Skinners rear tires didn't touch the track until Dale let him go in turn one. I don't remember if Skinner made it out of turn one unscathed .
You can see look on dale Jr face how much he enjoys hearing stories about his Dad. Great podcast.
I met Ned when he was the manager for the Brewers. Ned is the most humble and genuine human being I’ve met.
It's amazing that Milwaukee was blessed with Ned and Mr baseball himself, even though I'm a life long resident of Detroit, Ned and Bob will always be cherished by me.
he was one of my favorite players
I thought of Ned when it happened - I knew they were close
I guess you've never met Ben Nichols of Lucero
@@charleyharlan979I loved Major League, “just a bit outside.”
This was one of the best episodes of the Podcast!! I hope y'all show the video of Ned giving Dale those gifts at the end. Would love to see his reaction.
Ned should do an Earnhardt audiobook. What a pair of pipes on this guy!!
I agree whole-heartedly. Whether it's about deer hunting or beer hunting, I would grab it in a heartbeat.
A champion's champion. Yost met many a legend, and 5 presidents, but no one was like Dale Earnhardt. My God, the lump in the throat this gives me could choke a horse. Long Live EARNHARDT.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen Ned Yost join the podcast crew until now and he made some interesting comments on his personal moments with Dale Earnhardt Sr and other buddies. Thanks, Ned, for the good ol’ royalty 2015 days. 👍
Ned is such a great storyteller! What an amazing episode.
Agree 💯 and a great outdoor hunter
Earnhardt Sr was the best race car driver I ever saw,he was also one of the best marketing guys of all time.simply brilliant
As a former Ballplayer - this is sage advice.... just play as hard as you can every single game. It will work out. I never saw him play (he was retired by the time I started) but Joe DiMaggio said it best when asked why he played so hard.... " There might be a fan out there that has never seen me play" That stuck with me & i was able to have a career that spanned 30 years . From fast pitch softball at 19 to a four state wood bat baseball league that I played my last game at age 49- & got a game winning hit on my last at - bat.
Dale, at some point, you have to produce a movie that is actually worthy of your dad (not that ESPN crap). A real production from the first hand stories about the legend that is your dad.
You have unselfishly allowed these stories to be shared with us the fans and it is much appreciated that you let us relive it with you. Thank you brother
I found -Dale- to be the most respectful/family oriented version of the Earnhardt Legacy. The ending..when Jr. made magic at Daytona, to me was the most powerful moment in all of racing cinema. It's about loss, hard work, looming fathers and sons clawing out from the shadows, redemption and the cost and sacrifices this family has made to the contributions to racing and their love for racing. I love everything Earnhardt and everything they represent.
@@FlagTheRef I guess I could have been more clear. I totally agree with everything you say. I was referring to the quality of the film. I felt like it was cheaply produced. I also felt Dale and nascar deserved a much better representation. Maybe that is a matter of copyrights when it comes to tracks and cars and such? I followed the man nearly his entire career and I have high expectations for anything that involves his name and what it stands for. I met him multiple times and even got his autograph a couple of times. I even bought the ESPN tin box set, after I watched it. That representation of his life is still very appreciated.
Someone will make the best version in the end. They always do.
I think that is why he won’t do a movie. Maybe a good documentary, but never a feature movie. He is not doing it just for money.
@@ethanweeter2732 he did say he hoped that everything from Dale’s accident to the Pepsi 400 win should be on the big screen.
Ned Yost is one of the best interviews, Jr. has had on his podcast. I've heard them all.
Thank you Ned you just summed up Sr. in a nut shell! That is exactly what Jr. lacked in Racing no matter what Sr. wanted to win even enough to never drive for Himself That is why i loved the MAN YES THE MAN! it is the same motivation I pressed on my Daughters in travel sports and they were successful! THE INTIMIDATOR FOREVER!
I love it when guests treat Mike with the same respect and attention they do Jr like he’s part of the conversation.. because he was. And not all of them were like Ned!
Ned is so awesome. Love his story but best part is how he delivers it. Hope he comes back on.
As Royals manager, yes indeed. Is he 67 or 68 years old because when I looked him up on Wikipedia for the very first time as a kid, he was born in 1955.
You know he's a great guest when the two hosts barely even have to ask him any questions, because he is so good at telling these stories. They just sit and listen like the rest of us.
The way Jr frames questions, impeccable!
Dale you might never see this, but February 18th 2001 affected so many people as you're acutely aware these days as he as so beloved. It's one of the most vivid days in my entire life even 22 years later. It ripped my family apart, but I believe without a doubt it affected you in incredible ways. Hope the Earnhardt family has healed since then.
I just love hearing stories about that man . I miss him every day 😢
“I’ve met 5 presidents in my life, I’ve never met anyone like your dad “ unreal!
Dirty Mo Killin it again...this time with a Great Motivational Speech!
I've listened to every episode and there have been some GREAT interviews through the years. But this was hands down and by far and away the absolute BEST interview segment ever done on the show. Ned Yost is a freaking treasure.
This may be the most incredible, single-best podcast I’ve ever heard. Incredible content. Thank you Dale and Dirty Mo Crew. ❤
Great episode. You can 100% tell Ned Yost was in the inner inner circle of Dale Earnhardt’s World.
you know from kc i loved ned growing up he was such a cool coach, awesome to hear he was into racing as well and sr help bring kc a championship. beautiful story
Best podcast ever !! Thanks ned for the amazing stories ! 3 lives forever!
I'm a little biased cause I'm a Royals fan. But having Ned Yost on the show was FANTASTIC!!!!! His insight and stories were completely fascinating. Glad this was able to happen and the stories now will live on forever!!! Thank you Dale Jr and thank you Mr. Ned Yost
I feel the same being a Brewers fan!
I've never commented here - but this man, Ned Yost compelled me to say, wow! Great emotional interview. Kudo's to ya'll!
We ALL need more Ned Yost telling Dale Earnhardt stories in our lives! After watching this interview, I'm ready to jump up and run through a wall to meet my challenges! Very inspirational!! Thanks for sharing this with all of us!!
What a great perspective! Loved the inside story he brought to light!!!
Absolutely the best podcast you’ve about Sr, and you’ve had some great ones. Loved it!
Larry Bird said the exact same thing. He had NO friends while he played basketball. His main rival Magic was his driving force to be better and later became friends. But on the court, nope. I understand it but man what a hard life to live.
Ned Yost Was Member 1991 Atlanta Braves From Worst To First Known As The Miracle Season Thanks For Uploading
That same mindset from Sr. is what makes Kyle Busch tick and why I believe KB and RCR is going to be great together.
What I would have done to meet Dale! What a legend! He just out worked everyone to be the BEST! That’s something. Very few greats, Dale, Jordon, Brady, Senna, Kobe, and others but just a few people with nothing but 🔥 to win! People like that are rare.
I have to say you know you are a true champion. When people can talk about you when you are gone. Dale Earnhardt SR. Has really touched many peoples lives in various ways. ❤
My favorite interview yet.
Great thoughts to live by
THAT was an inspirational speech. That's how and why Ned was able to turn a loser into a winner.
WOW!!!!!! There are words to live by here!!! Inspired!!
Dale had a refuse to lose mentality.
You guys hit this one out of the park ! AGAIN !!!
you guys are awesome! great selection of guest great questions and you dont talk over the guest. great job Mike and Dale !
This is a great episode!!
Ned's story shows how Sr's way of thinking crossed lines from Nascar to other sports
I always figured Dale (sr) considered DEI, Jr's company and future. So, he left it for him.
Yup, too bad Sr didn't put it in writing and sign it though. After you're dead, the widow/er gets to dig their greedy, scrappy claws in and create chaos, animosity and lawsuits, pitting uncles against nephews & nieces. Dogs and cats, living together... MASS HYSTERIA!
@@shannon3n8 Agreed, that's what I was thinking. But, listening to the end and what Ned says about how proud Dale would be of his son. Dale Jr, went and did it ALL on his own, dad didn't have to set him up. I'm a dad, I know that would make him so proud.
Ned Yost and Jody Davis were Dale's friends. Jody Davis was catching for the Cubs and Braves. Baseball and Nascar were the top two sports that I like these days.
Same here!! NASCAR and MLB for me.
Wow. Amazing and inspirational!
I loved when coach yost was in milwaukee! Such an awesome human being.
I agree, this was a great clip!
One of the best interviews!
"Never leave a winner to go to a loser". This is advice that covers every sport! Doesn't matter about the money or the perks of whatever. Winning is winning as Vin Diesel said in the first Fast movie. Too many guys it seems in this day and age care little about winning, it seems to be about money and that's a bad direction for any athlete. You play to be the best in your sport. I also like the comment about Dale Sr saying he had no friends off the track. True, that stuff could wait til after retirement begins.
Dale I absolutely loved this podcast!!!! I LOVE ALL THE STORIES OF YOUR DAD!! AND THIS GUEST WAS STATING 💯 MILLION PERCENT PURE TRUTH ABOUT YOUR PRECIOUS DAD👍😎 PRICELESS TREASURED BLESSINGS AND MEMORIES FOREVER 💞🤗💞 There was ONLY ONE "INTIMIDATOR " AND WHEN HE WAS IN THAT RACE CAR HE WAS LASER FOCUSED BECAUSE THAT WAS A "JOB" BUT TO YOUR DAD IT REALLY WASN'T A JOB, IT'S WHAT HE LOVED TO DO AND WHAT HE WAS BORN TO DO, RACING WAS HIS PURPOSE AND HIS JOY👍💞🤗💞🙏🏻 HE WAS EXTREMELY SMART AND EVEN CUNNING ON THE TRACK BECAUSE HE COULD MAKE A RACE CAR GO PLACES AND DO THINGS ON THE TRACK AND IN THE GRASS THAT NO PERSON WILL EVER DUPLICATE OR TOP!! THE "INTIMIDATOR " WILL FOREVER REIGN AS THE BEST DRIVER EVER IN NASCAR🏁🏆🏁 PLEASE CONTINUE TO BRING IN GUESTS WITH AWESOME STORIES BECAUSE THEY ARE PRECIOUS PRICELESS TREASURED BLESSINGS AND MEMORIES FOREVER AND I CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF THESE FANTASTIC PRICELESS TREASURED STORIES!! LOVE YOU DALE, MIKE AND DIRTY MO MEDIA AND THANK YOU DALE FOR RESURRECTING NORTH WILKESBORO 💞🤗💞👍 THAT TRACK IS AMAZING AND LOVED BY MANY FANS INCLUDING ME. 💞🤗💞🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Very excellent interview.
I love Mr Yost, great interview
This is a great one!!!! Thanks !!!!!!!
Love this episode
This is most interesting.
I recall many years ago when I brought up my puzzlement to a NASCAR guy why Dale Sr didn't drive for DEI. The guy responded with saying the great money Dale Sr. was making with RCR, why leave it? Besides, the money Dale Sr. was making from RCR could be used to help finance the DEI operation.
This guy is by far one of your best interviews yet.
Love that shirt Dale Jr has on
Great story by Dale earnhardt and ned yost
The contract thing with dale sounds like maybe around 95-96...there was a rumor goin around that ford was gonna make a big run at putting him in the second yates car. The 88 car (ford quality care and GM goodwrench were basically the manufacturer backed cars)..doug yates and maybe todd parrott alluded to it in previous episodes.
I've got a framed poster of Dale when Wrangler was still primary sponsor - it's in my guitar / recording room - it's weird cause it looks like he's watching me - a friend was over and she says " do you ever get the feeling he's watching you ? Now I've got Elvis , John Wayne , Waylon , Willie , Eric Clapton , the Tasmanian Devil , Bugs , an old Billy Gibbons -
I knew exactly which picture she was referring to - Dale -
Helluva skipper Ned was…love his speech on accepting and handing failure in baseball cause the best hitters only reach base 3 to 4 times out of 10 at bats
Great guest!!!
Fantastic 👍💞🤗💞🏁🏆🏁✝️
Love this episode. Listened on podcast. Want to see his gifts on a clip on here. Sounded awesome.
Don't ever say your doing your best! If your doing your best, that leaves no room for improvement. We can all do better.
Another Great episode!
Love this him talk, great episode!
Nascar stories are better than any other sport stories.
We agree!!
Lmao. "I ain't got no friends in racing!"
Neil Bonnet.
This guy's idea of Dale is the same as people see Kyle Busch today. Winning means the most. So why do they put Dale on a pedestal but bash Kyle. Yes I'm a Kyle fan but I'm also trying to understand why this is.
Because Dale represents a certain type of man from a bygone era. To a lot of fans, Dale was the embodiment of the old school - tough as a boot and will grab you by your neck and lump you up if you step too far outta line. To a lot of modern people, he represents the quintessential southern father - 10ft tall, good at a lot of things, and was a little too hard on his children. But at the same time he molded those children into the respectable people they are today.
Kyle Busch looks like he’s never lifted anything heavier than 30 lbs in his entire life and he’d shatter if you punched him.
Dale was also the best for a very long time.
@@g8autox 👌
@@g8autox u nailed it‼️ 100% .. couldn't agree more!
@@g8autox That's why I always admired him!
Oh this is good.
Tony Bobulinski interview.
Ceskoslovenska.
If you ain’t first you’re last!
Great video!
Never been this early, damn!
Great video
Gimme deer, or gimme beer!
Persistent determination. Nobody ever let him back in line either. How could anybody think 2nd is good. I seen the Dream team get whooped by te Expos. I didn't go to see Murphy strike at every bat.
WOW, NED was right, give it your best every day....that's a big issue now in this day and age for sure, all these kids care about is a paycheck and not striving to make it better for the customer or themselves, or even learning
Thats a cool story and all but I dont really agree with any of it. Earnhardt stayed with RCR until his death. And they really stopped being an elite team when the multicar teams started getting really popular in the mid 90s. RCR was late to the party. RCR was dominate from the mid 80s to the mid 90s and post 1996 RCR has had what I would call dominate seasons maybe four times since. So Earnhardnt either didnt see the writing on the wall that RCR had fallen behind or he was so loyal to Richard he didnt care. Then you have Yost. He left a winner in Milwaukee (83-67) to go to a loser Kansas City (55-72) and helped turn KC into World Series Champions. You go to where you see potential. I think Earnhardt to DEI in 1999 would have been awesome. And yes I'm aware of the outstanding year Earnhardt had in 2000 with RCR. Also what a interesting story line for the sport. Even better just had RCR merge with DEI. Put all of those resources together. Have Dale SR and Dale Jr in one garage and have Steve Park and Mike Skinner in the other. Skinner would probably leave regardless and that still leaves a place for Michael Waltrip in 2001
Dale Sr's first race car was a 1956 pink Ford.
Can't tell you how many times I have heard... 2nd place is the FIRST loser.
I enjoyed this guy's stories about Sr, but I had know idea who he was as I was watching the video. Full disclosure, I don't follow baseball. Thus, I had to look him up.
A M A Z I N G
There's no doubt he was a hard ass but he was more. He was certainly The Intimidator, but he died blocking for his son and Mikey. There's no doubt if he could have passed them he would have but if not he was going to make sure they won.
Were can we get full video on the podcasts
The more I watch this podcast the more I’m convinced that Ricky Bobby is loosely based on Dale Sr
Its crazy the more and more I listen to interviews about Sr, and then on the flip side watch Kyle Busch be interviewed, the similarities that stick out.
Does anyone know where we can watch the whole interview? I usually listen on podcast but would like to watch this one.
“Second place is the FIRST LOSER.”
The constant effort to always go for the win, and have error-free execution in all that you do. It was Dale Earnhardt’s MANTRA that we should all strive for…
Hunting, is good for the soul.
Ned was talking to Mike more than Jr.
Happy birthday Dale Junior. Don't ever go to a loser knowing your dad Dale Earnhardt Senior is a winner in a Chevrolet race car.
But Dale left Bud Moore and a team that was winning races for RCR at a time they hadn’t won many races.
best quote- "I have had the opportunity I have met five presidents and a bunch of different people. I've never ever met anyone, like your dad."
Dale should have left towards the end to help dei
