Transcript
- 0:02Happy Wednesday morning, everybody.
- 0:05Look who jumped up here. The legend.
- 0:09How you doing, buddy? Your fans miss you.
- 0:11I think he wants a treat. Hold on.
- 0:15We'll get you something in a little bit.
- 0:19Where are you going? You can go potty.
- 0:21You can go potty or treat, treat, treat.
- 0:26That what you want? Hold on, Let me do this coffee
- 0:30with Kenny Louie. Now that was funny.
- 0:33Now you see what I go through. Don't ever say ATREAT word.
- 0:38All right, the subject at hand this morning is how about
- 0:44NASCAR? NASCAR joined up with Netflix
- 0:49and man, this is going to help. Just like it helped Formula One.
- 0:53And here's why I've said this before on coffee with Kenny.
- 0:59Oh, really? Well, you you have to tell
- 1:01people why. When I did Fox, you know, for
- 1:05what, 15 years, we'd have meetings in those, they'd say,
- 1:08Kenny, you got to tell the people why.
- 1:10I said, all right then. By the way, that's D in the
- 1:13background. They're cleaning the pantry out.
- 1:16Today, her and Kim been ordering everything, going to organize
- 1:19the pantry, clean it, clean it up real nice, organize it.
- 1:23It's clean right now. They're just going to organize
- 1:26it. All right, So the reason this
- 1:30Netflix special is going to help NASCAR, and you quote me here,
- 1:34it's going to grow NASCAR and leaps and bounds.
- 1:38Here's why. Because NASCAR, the drivers more
- 1:43so have lost their way. The sponsors have lost their
- 1:48way. They sponsor the car and maybe
- 1:51the drivers do some appearances for the sponsors, but the
- 1:56sponsors have quit airing commercials on on TV Now I see
- 2:01Mahendra with Tony Stewart, Chase, Briscoe.
- 2:04They've done some things and and I would say Menards did a little
- 2:08bit with Blaine, but Blaine's sitting in the car and you can't
- 2:11really see him that good. We need some good commercials
- 2:15with the with the driver's face like this, That's what we need.
- 2:19Like brother Rusty said to me, goes Herman, you're more famous
- 2:24now than when you raced. I said why is that?
- 2:28It was when I was doing Fox TV, he said Rusty, say I turn the TV
- 2:33on and and your whole your whole face, your whole face covers up
- 2:36the damn TV. He says When you're in that race
- 2:39cart don't even know what you look like.
- 2:42So this Netflix special is going to put drivers faces on the map
- 2:49now. Hey, Kenny, quit squealing.
- 2:52OK? Whenever I get excited, I guess
- 2:57I my voice picks up. I'm excited about this
- 3:00situation. So when this next flick.
- 3:07Hey, Herman, get the shit out of your mouth.
- 3:09I'm all jacked up on Mountain Dew.
- 3:11Hey, what's in this coffee? What is in there?
- 3:16I've had a coffee and a banana this morning right here.
- 3:19All right, so the Netflix special is going to put these
- 3:23drivers faces on TV. OK, So whether it was it was
- 3:29NASCAR's fault or whether it was the sponsor's fault,
- 3:34collectively, all together, it was everybody's fault.
- 3:37OK, So This is why it's going to help the sport of NASCAR.
- 3:43It's going to take our drivers, put them out the forefront.
- 3:45Now also, it's also going to do this.
- 3:48It's going to let you all see that these are real people.
- 3:54So here I go again. Let me, let me break my arm.
- 3:58Patting myself on the back. Hey, Wallace, You patting
- 4:01yourself on the back? Yes, I am NASCAR 360.
- 4:06A lot of you are young, but about 20 years ago, besides me
- 4:11working for Fox Sports, Lucy Bark and AD.
- 4:15So I did that. NASCAR 360.
- 4:19Oh my God. We did NASCAR 360 and let
- 4:23everybody inside our homes, let them see what we were doing.
- 4:27It grew my popularity from here to there.
- 4:30The next time they introduced me at the racetrack, the fans
- 4:34cheered me like Dale Earnhardt Junior.
- 4:37So anyway, those are two reasons right there.
- 4:40The Netflix special is going to be so big, it's going to put the
- 4:44driver's face on the maps. It's going to let you see that
- 4:47these are real people. And you'll quit shit talking the
- 4:52drivers, because then you'll see, oh, they're real.
- 4:54They got children instead of He hit my driver.
- 4:57I hate him. OK, that leads me to the second
- 5:03coffee with Kenny. OK, let's let me take a There's
- 5:07two coffee with Kenny's today. Hold on.
- 5:10Here's a pause. You take a drink too?
- 5:16I watch. I like Kelly Clarkson.
- 5:21I watched Kelly Clarkson at 10:00 Austin yesterday, Austin
- 5:26said. Herm, are you doing the retired
- 5:28thing? I said no.
- 5:29I said I just got done with my race car.
- 5:31When the race season was over, I just kept working and did all
- 5:35these keynote speakers and I worked my ass off.
- 5:38Now I got two weeks to sit on my ass.
- 5:40I'm going to do it. The second coffee with Kenny is
- 5:46something Kelly Clarkson said that I really liked.
- 5:49She said she want to thank some of her fans.
- 5:52Miley Cyrus came out with a song that hold on, I'll get you your
- 5:56TRAT treat. Hold on, hold on.
- 6:02You want a treat? OK, hold on.
- 6:05He's a drag racer. He's ready to go.
- 6:09Miley Cyrus got a song on about thanking some of the fans that
- 6:14have liked her every step of the way.
- 6:17And I think that's important in life because I noticed a lot of
- 6:22people that say to me, hey Wallace, I didn't like you back
- 6:25then, but I like you now. Hey Wallace, I didn't.
- 6:31I used to not like you back then, but I like you now.
- 6:36Like like I get a trophy or something.
- 6:40I think it's important that we all grow, right.
- 6:42Like like I used to have. I used to have an Afro.
- 6:46I used to have a big head of hair.
- 6:48Well, no, no, I don't have hair, you know.
- 6:53Do you like me? Are you mad at me?
- 6:56So it's it's like we we all, we all grow.
- 6:59We're we're, we're different. We go through different stages
- 7:02of life. So anyway, drop your comments
- 7:05right here on everything, Dude, you used to not like somebody
- 7:10and now you like them. I there's people I used to not
- 7:16like, but now I like because I judge them from afar.
- 7:21You know what I mean? I used to.
- 7:22I'm like, I like that sump bitch.
- 7:25He's cocky. Well, then I'll tell you one
- 7:28right now. Kurt Busch.
- 7:30I used to think that Kurt Busch was a cocky guy.
- 7:33Well, all of a sudden me and Kyle Petty got in.
- 7:38Well, when when Bruton Smith was alive, we got in Bruton's Big
- 7:41Jet and we flew down to Texas Motor Speedway with Kurt.
- 7:46I loved him. He's awesome.
- 7:49So there's that old song. Never judge a book by its cover
- 7:52or who you going to love. Never judge a book by your
- 7:55cover. Or who you going to love by your
- 7:58lover. There's D.
