The Kyle Petty vs Dale Earnhardt Jr. Next Gen "Beef" | Coffee With Kenny · Kenny Wallace Media

• 0:02
  Happy Thursday morning everybody.
• 0:06
  Last night, Wednesday night I raced with the World of Outlaw
• 0:11
  Late Models over in Highland, IL and I finished fourth as my
• 0:17
  hero. The great Dick Trickle said it
• 0:20
  was a good fourth, my boy. The track took rubber.
• 0:24
  Rubber means you couldn't dirt track it.
• 0:28
  You had to run right around the bottom and you could not pass.
• 0:32
  I started 8th and I got the 4th and the way I did that was it
• 0:37
  was weird. I kept getting stuck on the
• 0:40
  outside lane, which would be considered the bad lane.
• 0:43
  But man, I had some John Force built into my car, had some good
• 0:48
  Ford drive built into my car, so on On the start, I cleared the
• 0:53
  bottom lane and I'd get in lane, you know, I'd clear the inside
• 0:58
  row and then I'd get in and then the caution came out a little
• 1:02
  bit later and I got stuck on the outside again.
• 1:05
  Come to green flag, I'd clear the inside lane, I'd get down
• 1:08
  again, picked off a couple spots.
• 1:11
  Then I got by the 24 just clean on the bottom and I finished
• 1:15
  fourth. We won fourth on a on a single
• 1:19
  lane, rub it up track. I was like Yahoo.
• 1:23
  So we'll take that. OK, Subject matter of the day.
• 1:32
  Boy, this one's a doozy for me, but I can do it.
• 1:37
  I was talking to Charlie Marlow, who is my YouTube manager.
• 1:41
  You know, the reason I got hooked on doing this was
• 1:44
  Charlie. When I moved from Charlotte, NC
• 1:48
  back to my hometown of Saint Louis, Charlie Marlow called me,
• 1:51
  Said, Herman, let me start you a YouTube page.
• 1:56
  And I said, Charlie, I don't want nothing to do with that
• 1:59
  stuff. I just want to run my dirt car.
• 2:02
  So he let two months go by and he called me again.
• 2:06
  And I said, damn it, Charlie. All right, and here we are
• 2:10
  today. So Charlie is not just my
• 2:12
  YouTube manager. What that means is he puts
• 2:16
  everything up and, and he's the one that knows he's got all the
• 2:20
  digital savvy. He knows how to do all that
• 2:23
  stuff I can barely get on social media.
• 2:27
  So Charlie, me, we talked on this Thursday morning and I
• 2:31
  said, hell, I don't know what I'm going to talk about on
• 2:34
  coffee with Kenny. I said, what, what's going on
• 2:37
  out there? And he said, well, he said, did
• 2:41
  you see that? Kyle Petty said everybody's
• 2:44
  complaining too much about the Next Gen. car and Dale Junior
• 2:50
  responded and said, Kyle, I love you, but you're wrong.
• 2:57
  Oh boy, this is right up my alley.
• 3:00
  I love it. So I'm going to give you all my
• 3:03
  opinion as Mark Martin would say, you know, Mark Martin's 133
• 3:11
  LB white guy from Arkansas and he says there's beef.
• 3:17
  Hey, man, we got beef between Cal Petty and Dale Junior and
• 3:22
  I'm here for it. Beef is, you know, rap music it
• 3:27
  that's that's a term they got when they when they're kind of
• 3:30
  going at it. And I liked the term beef
• 3:34
  because beef means we're not mad at each other.
• 3:36
  We just got some, we got some to straighten out here.
• 3:41
  So I'm going to give you what I think.
• 3:44
  First of all, this should be a lesson to all of you that you
• 3:49
  can have beef. And I'm going to, I'm going to
• 3:51
  bring that word up, that phrase I want you all to start using
• 3:54
  that We're not going to argue we got beef.
• 3:58
  Maybe it's the same thing as debate, huh?
• 4:00
  Is it the same thing as debate? So Kyle Petty comes out and he
• 4:04
  goes, man, now this is Kenny Wallace.
• 4:07
  I'm paraphrasing all this, so don't hold me the word.
• 4:10
  I remember I'm a race car driver.
• 4:12
  I'm not a journalist. I'm not Jeff Gluck, I'm not Bob
• 4:15
  Pycras. I'm not quoting everybody.
• 4:19
  Kyle Petty pulled a Kenny Wallace.
• 4:21
  He said y'all complain too much. There's nothing wrong with this
• 4:23
  next Gen. car. Dale Junior has learned from me.
• 4:28
  Dale Junior will tell you. He goes, oh, this is this is
• 4:32
  good for me. Now I got something.
• 4:34
  So Dale Junior got beef with Kyle Petty.
• 4:38
  So he goes back and goes, Kyle, I love you on, you know, dirty
• 4:42
  MO. You know, the Dale Junior
• 4:43
  podcast. Dale Junior is like Kyle, we
• 4:48
  should never stop trying to make these cars better.
• 4:52
  Now, I'm impressed with all of you because you all know better
• 4:57
  than to make those two fight each other and I want to make
• 5:00
  sure everybody understands this. I said that the 2 greatest
• 5:05
  NASCAR historians alive today, Number one is Kyle Petty because
• 5:12
  Kyle was born and raised during the glory days and #2 is Dale
• 5:19
  Earnhardt Junior. Those two are God's gift to
• 5:23
  NASCAR. It it amazes me that NASCAR just
• 5:26
  doesn't bestow an award or or like it.
• 5:30
  You know, our NASCAR historians or Kyle Petty and Dale Junior.
• 5:36
  And when and when I talk to Kyle, I mean, he knows he knows
• 5:40
  everything. Charlie's got to beep all that
• 5:43
  out. I got, I'm not even mad.
• 5:44
  I just, I felt, I feel so strong.
• 5:48
  So this is pretty cool to watch 2 heroes kind of go at it.
• 5:54
  I, I love them both dearly. Kyle and me, we're just good
• 6:00
  friends because you know, we got it going on.
• 6:02
  What we got in common is that motorcycle ride, the Cal Petty
• 6:05
  charity ride, Dale Junior and myself, we just texted each
• 6:08
  other yesterday. We're having the big garage sale
• 6:12
  August 23rd at 8:00 AM Saturday. And I was going through the shed
• 6:17
  and I found my slot car box and I made Dale Junior a little 32nd
• 6:22
  video. I said, look at here.
• 6:23
  I said, I found my slot car box and he goes, man, He said I
• 6:27
  still got mine and I wished I'd have got into that more.
• 6:33
  But I got to tell you, it warms my heart to see these two agree
• 6:37
  to disagree and, and that that's the way it ought to be.
• 6:41
  Somebody said to me last night at Highland, you know, every
• 6:45
  single person, like every single person comes up to me and goes,
• 6:49
  I love coffee with Kenny. And I said, it's so weird.
• 6:52
  I said it's the easiest thing I do and Charlie says Charlie says
• 6:58
  Herman coffee with Kenny's our bread and butter.
• 7:02
  Hell, you going there on YouTube, you know the one I did,
• 7:04
  I said NASCAR in trouble. That son of a bitch is at
• 7:07
  130,000 views. But my point is, is everybody,
• 7:14
  these race tracks, I mean, hundreds of people, they stand
• 7:17
  in line and you all were there to hide on last night.
• 7:20
  I had about 20 people standing around me.
• 7:22
  And every one of them, that's all they want to talk about is
• 7:25
  coffee with Kenny. Because we bring up the greatest
• 7:27
  subject matters there are. So as far as Kyle Petty and Dale
• 7:33
  Junior having beef, I'm here for it.
• 7:36
  You know, me and my wife argue and we still love each other.
• 7:40
  She still makes love to me when we go to bed.
• 7:44
  He did not say that. Oh yes, I did.
• 7:52
  NASCAR is in trouble right now, and that's the video that I made
• 7:57
  over there on YouTube. It's got 130,000 views right
• 8:00
  now. NASCAR's in trouble and here's
• 8:02
  why. Because Jeff Gluck, Dale Junior,
• 8:07
  Mark Martin, they don't like what they see in NASCAR right
• 8:12
  now. So it's refreshing to see 2
• 8:17
  heroes agree to disagree. But but I listen, I'll die on my
• 8:22
  hill. I said it once and I'll say it
• 8:26
  again. You all are chronic complainers.
• 8:32
  You don't know how to even stop. You don't know how to stop.
• 8:39
  But I still love you all. Have a great Thursday everyone.
