  Hello, everybody, and welcome back to the Kenny Waller Show,

  brought to you by Jags. Right there they are the leader
• 0:07
  in high performance aftermarket car parts.
• 0:10
  Remember to go to jags.com for anything you need to fix your
• 0:14
  vehicle up. All right, let's get right to
• 0:16
  it. I see people losing their minds
• 0:19
  out there right now. Eight cars are advancing in the
• 0:22
  NASCAR playoffs, and one car owner has half the field.
• 0:27
  Are you kidding me? Rick Hendrick, man, he's a great
• 0:31
  boss. He knows how to hire the people
• 0:33
  and put them in place. So there's 88 cars, 8 drivers
• 0:38
  advancing. Four of them.
• 0:41
  Half of them are all Rick Hendrick and Hendrick
• 0:44
  Motorsport. All right, let's break it down.
• 0:45
  The Herminator wrote some notes. I've been working on the dirt
• 0:48
  car all day long on this Sunday, getting ready to go to Lincoln,
• 0:51
  IL, Friday and Saturday. Lincoln, IL.
• 0:54
  That ends the year for the association that I run, which is
• 0:59
  UMP. All right?
• 1:01
  These are the team and drivers going in to the final round of
• 1:05
  eight, and then after that it's the final four for one race.
• 1:09
  So basically what's coming up? That's it, three more races, we
• 1:15
  kick out four and then they race one race, which will be at
• 1:18
  Phoenix, all right, Total of four races left.
• 1:21
  We run three, kick 4 out, there's four left and we go to
• 1:26
  one race and that will be for the championship.
• 1:28
  All right, Rick Hendrick, he's got 4 drivers.
• 1:31
  He's got all of his drivers in Chase Elliott, Alex Bowman,
• 1:35
  William Byron, Kyle Larson. That's Rick Hendrick, All his
• 1:38
  drivers in Herman. I already heard that.
• 1:41
  Joe Gibbs, Danny Hamlin and I'm going to talk about him in a
• 1:45
  minute. William Byron, What the hell,
• 1:48
  Herman, get that stop. Christopher Bell.
• 1:51
  So Joe Gibbs has got Danny Hamlin and Christopher Bell, all
• 1:55
  right, 2311 Michael Jordan Michael Jordan going to the
• 2:00
  final eight. Tyler Reddick, that's his
• 2:03
  driver. Tyler Reddick going all right
• 2:06
  and then Rodger Pinsky has Blaney man, I'll tell you what
• 2:11
  respond right here. But the if Rick Hendrick don't
• 2:15
  win this championship, it it it'd be crazy, right, because he
• 2:19
  he's the numbers are on his side.
• 2:21
  He he's 4 drivers against the other 4 but it it can happen All
• 2:26
  right another thing I want to bring up.
• 2:29
  We got approximately 15 car owners, right, 15 car owners and
• 2:35
  they and they own the 36 or 38 cars that enter each week.
• 2:39
  You're asking yourself, how in the hell does Rick Hendrick do
• 2:43
  this? I've seen it on X already.
• 2:45
  Everybody's like, I just can't believe this.
• 2:48
  This is not right. This is not right.
• 2:50
  Rick Hendrick, all his cars in in the 8.
• 2:54
  Are you kidding me? In the final eight?
• 2:55
  Well, here's what I would say to all of you.
• 2:57
  He's a hell of a boss. He's got it going on and
• 3:00
  successful companies have great bosses.
• 3:03
  Rodger Pence is a successful man, but some of his drivers of
• 3:06
  it had had tough luck and Joey Logano just couldn't hold on the
• 3:10
  at the end there. And Reddick, Reddick made the
• 3:12
  hell of a drive, started 26 and got all the way up to 11, put
• 3:15
  himself in. OK, that's all I got right
• 3:18
  there. I, I, I told you who's in.
• 3:21
  I told you that Henrik is all the talk right now because a lot
• 3:24
  of people jealous. A lot of people jealous.
• 3:28
  Alright, the next subject, and we're going to end like this,
• 3:32
  Denny Hamlin, this guy, this guy is tougher than a big boulder.
• 3:41
  There was a saying, I remember somebody said one time, if you
• 3:46
  throw a brick at me, I'm going to throw a block back at you.
• 3:52
  That's Denny Hamlin. I think that Michael Jordan is
• 3:55
  wearing on Denny Hamlin. Think about what Denny Hamlin
• 3:58
  has been through, right? Michael Jordan and Denny Hamlin,
• 4:03
  their owners, they're suing NASCAR all week long.
• 4:06
  That's all the talks been Denny Hamlin, Michael Jordan, you
• 4:12
  know, in in the suit. Finally it it went went on
• 4:14
  display this weekend. This past weekend it went on
• 4:18
  display right. So we watched it play out the
• 4:22
  injunction, right? The injunction it it got
• 4:27
  postponed moved on because of Hurricane Milton.
• 4:30
  Danny Hamlin had to look at that see that and you ask yourself, I
• 4:34
  asked myself, how in the hell can Danny Hamlin be mentally
• 4:38
  that strong and finished 14th today after he got blindsided
• 4:44
  cold cock knocked the hell out of by the car he owns Tyler
• 4:49
  Reddick you saw there. What was that turn 7 Tyler
• 4:52
  Reddick comes blasting in there and there's already a car spun
• 4:55
  out and I don't I don't think Reddick seen it And Reddick he's
• 4:59
  asshole and elbows he's trying to save his car.
• 5:01
  Who's you run into his car owner.
• 5:04
  He runs right into Denny Hamlin and I thought that would have
• 5:07
  put Denny Hamlin out and that would have been it for Denny
• 5:09
  Hamlin. But to me the big surprise is,
• 5:13
  listen, Denny Hamlin is a is a lesson of like Beckham.
• 5:18
  You ever see the soccer player Beckham when, when the whole
• 5:21
  country of England just went down on Beckham because they
• 5:24
  threw it in the red card and they kicked Beckham out.
• 5:27
  I mean, this whole, this whole country, you know, if you know
• 5:30
  the history, this the country of England came down on Beckham
• 5:33
  because he was their best player and, and he was shown a red card
• 5:37
  and, and you know, in the World Cup and he got kicked out.
• 5:40
  Oh my God, they wanted to kill him.
• 5:41
  Literally, they wanted him killed it.
• 5:44
  I watched it. It was really good on Netflix.
• 5:48
  Denny Hamlin reminds me of this. Everybody is on him.
• 5:50
  They don't like him. They're just like they want to
• 5:53
  torch him. And Denny Hamlin still is able
• 5:57
  to to toughen up and go. I want to see you do it.
• 6:02
  I want to see you do it. So Denny Hamlin, Denny Hamlin,
• 6:06
  you are the man. I can't believe that you're able
• 6:08
  to focus after all the bullshit you go through.
• 6:11
  But I really think that that Michael Jordan has taught you an
• 6:15
  awful lot, everybody. I think that's all I got to.
• 6:18
  You respond right here to two subjects.
• 6:20
  Rick Hendrick, the man, you may not like it.
• 6:22
  Rick Hendrick has half the field going into the championship, the
• 6:26
  final, the final, 88 drivers for three races and then there'll be
• 6:32
  4 and then there'll be one race deciding the championship.
• 6:36
  And the second subject, How in the hell does Danny Hamlin do
• 6:40
  it? He just keeps on rolling.
• 6:43
