After a hot NASCAR weekend in Nashville, Dale Earnhardt Jr. gets back behind the microphone for another episode of Dirty Air. In a race that took five overtime restarts to complete and produced an unexpected winner in Joey Logano, there was a lot to chat about:

  • A box of Butler's Orchard pickles and update on the Titanic Lego set
  • Denny Hamlin and Kyle Larson have a rivalry
  • Does Carson Hocevar deserve a penalty for spinning Burton under caution?
  • Christopher Bell is looking strong this season
  • Should NASCAR have unlimited overtime attempts?
  • How hot is too hot for drivers inside the race car?
  • Race winner Joey Logano calls in 
  • Where Josh Berry will likely wind up for the 2025 season

When the guys took to YouTube Live for the Ask Jr. segment, listeners sent in questions regarding:

  • Why Dale doesn’t like concrete race surfaces
  • Andy Petree leaving Richard Childress Racing
  • What recovery after a hot race looks like
