• 0:02
  Happy Wednesday morning everybody.
• 0:06
  This is the late addition of coffee with Kenny.
• 0:12
  We had a Kenny conversation this morning at 9:30 with the great
• 0:17
  Ray Everingham and boy, he is going to be a Kenny conversation
• 0:21
  that you are going to want to listen to.
• 0:24
  The highlights to me are everything but the T Rex car
• 0:31
  over there at Hendrick back in the day, the great Rick
• 0:36
  Hendrick, the legendary car owner.
• 0:38
  He said, boys, I want you to play around a little bit.
• 0:41
  I want our research and development to build a car and
• 0:45
  let's try something different. Car didn't run very good at
• 0:49
  first, but then Ray said well let's let's change the springs
• 0:54
  in in T Rex the new design and you will not want to miss what
• 1:00
  he said. What woke T Rex up and made that
• 1:03
  car almost one second faster than all the other NASCAR race
• 1:07
  cars. After Jeff Gordon gave them all
• 1:12
  an ass whipping, Ray Everham got called to the NASCAR trailer.
• 1:18
  Bill France said I don't want to see that car ever again.
• 1:25
  Ray Everham argued, but it's legal.
• 1:29
  Bill France said it won't be legal tomorrow.
• 1:34
  Oh man, was it good. So you're going to want to
• 1:36
  listen to Kenny conversation with Ray Everingham coming out
• 1:39
  soon. The other highlight was at the
• 1:42
  very end. I said, Ray, I said NASCAR is
• 1:47
  trending upward right now, but there is a group of fans that
• 1:52
  don't like NASCAR. I said, so if these people are
• 1:58
  spending $40 million per charter, what's what's going on?
• 2:04
  What don't we see? If NASCAR is that bad right now,
• 2:10
  why are people spending $40 million per charter?
• 2:15
  You're going to want to hear what he has to say.
• 2:18
  It's not all good about NASCAR. OK, let's take a drink of
• 2:24
  coffee. I got some things to say today.
• 2:31
  We just got off right here. That's where I do right there, a
• 2:37
  good look. That's where we do all the Kenny
• 2:39
  conversations. OK?
• 2:47
  I just got done talking to Charlie Marlow, my YouTube
• 2:51
  manager. Charlie's been doing a little
• 2:54
  live streaming himself, and Charlie loves NASCAR and he
• 2:58
  likes to talk about it. But Charlie's a big ball and
• 3:01
  stick fan. I call Charlie a sportster.
• 3:04
  Charlie says, Kenny, these fans don't like NASCAR.
• 3:08
  I said, where the hell have you been, Charlie?
• 3:11
  For some reason, my Charlie Marlo's all jacked up right now.
• 3:15
  And I said Charlie, I said, OK, they don't like NASCAR.
• 3:21
  What don't they like? Well, they just don't like these
• 3:24
  points. And they, and I said, Charlie,
• 3:27
  they haven't liked these points since Mark Martin started on it.
• 3:30
  But I don't understand this. So I said, Charlie, what do you
• 3:35
  want to see? Well, I don't like.
• 3:37
  They just don't like that car. I said, yeah, they haven't liked
• 3:40
  the car for two years. And and the points it needs to
• 3:43
  matter. I'm like, I wanted to knock,
• 3:47
  knock. Charlie, The fuck's going on
• 3:49
  here? Is this Charlie?
• 3:51
  So because the TV ratings have been down so much compared to
• 3:57
  last year, Charlie says NASCAR needs to change.
• 4:02
  I said when, Charlie? When do you want them to change?
• 4:04
  Like right fucking now, right now, Like right now.
• 4:08
  I said, by the way, Charlie, let's have fun with this.
• 4:11
  Did you see the Major League Baseball's coming out with the
• 4:13
  automatic ball and strike deal? I said they're going to.
• 4:17
  It's going to come out right now tonight, NASCAR.
• 4:25
  My response to Charlie was this. NASCAR has already announced
• 4:30
  that they're going to change the point system and next year the
• 4:35
  racing is going to be different. They're going to give you 3 or 4
• 4:39
  races to determine the champion. What the fuck Don't you
• 4:45
  understand? And then I and I said, Charlie,
• 4:49
  I said, here's what this reminds me of.
• 4:54
  I said, this reminds me of a friend I had.
• 4:59
  I said, boy, you sure do bitch a lot.
• 5:01
  He goes, yeah, I just, I just want to bitch.
• 5:04
  Let me bitch for a little bit. I said, Charlie, is that what
• 5:06
  you want to do? You just want a bitch?
• 5:10
  So that's what I would say to all of you.
• 5:13
  Get the bitching out of your system.
• 5:15
  We got a handful, A handful more races to run.
• 5:20
  And then next year it's going to look all different.
• 5:23
  You're going to get your 3 or 4 race playoff.
• 5:27
  You're going to get you know that that you're going to get
• 5:30
  everything's going to be different next year because
• 5:32
  NASCAR hears you. I think you all are full of shit
• 5:35
  myself, but you all are what matters.
• 5:39
  I, I, I'm, I'm with Jeff Burton. I'm with Jeff Burton, Jeff
• 5:45
  Burton and a lot of us agree that, you know, you got to earn
• 5:50
  everything right now. I know another 1C said nobody
• 5:53
  likes the car. I'm like, OK, well, they're
• 5:57
  they're going to change that and it it gets to be where it's
• 6:01
  exhausting. I said, OK, so really what the
• 6:03
  deal is. Everybody just wants to keep
• 6:04
  ditching. Yeah, I guess so.
• 6:07
  But I want the automatic ball to strike count starting tonight on
• 6:12
  the first baseball game. So in the end, everybody, you
• 6:18
  all are going to get what you want.
• 6:20
  You just going to get it next year, not right fucking now.
• 6:43
  Brother Rossi says you got to remind these motherfuckers
• 6:47
  because they remember what they want to IE.
• 6:59
  OK everybody, we're at 7 minutes right now and we're trying to
• 7:03
  get this bitch to 8. Look here.
• 7:06
  Hey, why'd they name you Herman the German?
• 7:20
  That is Herman, the German medieval warrior from like the
• 7:25
  what, 1580s? And that's his wife, Femme Zelda
• 7:29
  or whatever hell her name is. And then this is a real decal.
• 7:34
  That is a real decal. Look at this.
• 7:41
  I'm just going to keep it up there as long as it will stay.
• 7:45
  Look at here. That's when you all voted me in
• 7:47
  the All Star race. Very nice of you.
• 7:57
  I love you all. All right, keep your bitching up
• 8:00
  and that way I'll have something to talk about.
• 8:02
  But remember, next year the points will change, the car will
• 8:07
  get different, and everything will be just fine.
• 8:12
  You exhaust me.
