  Happy Monday morning, everybody. Herman, what?
• 0:08
  Where is your Sunoco Racing fuel decal?
• 0:12
  Well, Kenny, it's downstairs, but I'm too lazy to get up and
• 0:15
  go get it. Well, as you can tell by now,
• 0:22
  let me give you a 360, everybody.
• 0:24
  Here we go. Ready.
• 0:37
  Cobble wobble baby. Right down there is Sammy Hagar.
• 0:44
  Got my friends in from Alabama. Got a big crowd here.
• 0:50
  Name and serial number Dave Heat 2614.
• 0:53
  No, I'm not going to tell you. Did you 2 get tickets for the
• 0:56
  show here? We did.
• 0:57
  You did great friends of mine, and I said certainly nobody's up
• 1:05
  at 5:55. Well, hell, they've been up.
• 1:07
  How long y'all been up at time? I said that's nothing.
• 1:13
  When we run these NASCAR races out here on the Left Coast, crew
• 1:19
  members will be in the lobby like at 3:00 and 4:00.
• 1:24
  Can't teach the dog new tricks. OK, I thought of this first.
• 1:33
  I know Dale Junior and Carl Edwards and I know they all
• 1:36
  talked about it on the post race show.
• 1:39
  But I talked. I told you, you said to me,
• 1:42
  what's coffee with Kenny going to be about and what did I tell
• 1:45
  you? Hosa Bar?
• 1:47
  Carson Hosa Bar. Yeah, we got done eating last
• 1:52
  night and he said, Herman, what are you going to do, coffee with
• 1:54
  Kenny? I said, oh, that's easy.
• 1:56
  It's going to be about Carson Hosa Bar.
• 1:59
  So this morning I wake up and I look up on the prime app, you
• 2:03
  know, here on X and sure enough, they're talking about Carson
• 2:07
  Hosavar crowds starting to get bigger.
• 2:14
  Here comes my my Europe buddy, the legendary.
• 2:17
  Good morning, John Scott, Tony, ladies and gentlemen, morning
• 2:21
  race fans. We're doing look at you got your
• 2:25
  got your banana got you're getting ready to check out the
• 2:28
  stock market, ain't you poop juice have already checked out.
• 2:31
  Oh, gut tree. He got us poop juice.
• 2:34
  John's want to take care of my money.
• 2:35
  Look. And here's why Look, he's got
• 2:37
  the apps and everything. Look at everything.
• 2:39
  He ready. They're the legend.
• 2:43
  OK, let's get back on track with coffee with Kenny.
• 2:48
  I was going to say I was. I didn't want to say this, but I
• 2:52
  was going to say Carson Hosevar is becoming a human bowling
• 2:57
  ball. So I already know that what
• 3:03
  Junior said and Carl Edwards said, they said as race fans, we
• 3:10
  love Carson Hosur because he wrecking the hell out.
• 3:12
  Everybody puts on a show. Here's what I say about Carson
• 3:17
  Hosur. Now we truly have a bad guy.
• 3:21
  Yay. So I hate Joey Logano.
• 3:29
  I don't like Denny Hanglin. Well, are you biting?
• 3:37
  Are you going for Carson Joseph Ardell?
• 3:40
  This is wrestling, you know, not really.
• 3:44
  OK, on a serious note, where are we going to land with this?
• 3:50
  There? There's something to brew in
• 3:52
  here. Last year to All Star Race at
• 3:55
  North Wilkesboro, we had my dear friend.
• 3:59
  I love Ricky Stenhouse. He's my friend.
• 4:01
  So that's my disclaimer. You can hate me now.
• 4:05
  I hate Kenny Wallace because he likes the guy I don't like.
• 4:10
  Oh, I'm guilty. I'm guilty by association, am I?
• 4:13
  That's the way it was my whole life.
• 4:15
  I don't like that Rusty Wallace. He runs his mouth.
• 4:19
  Hey, don't forget me. I'm his kid brother.
• 4:21
  So do I, Apple. Don't fall far from the tree,
• 4:25
  Wallace. My God, I'm a comedian and
• 4:28
  didn't even know it this morning.
• 4:29
  All right, let's simmer down a little bit.
• 4:31
  Carson Osavar is the new Ernie Irvin.
• 4:36
  Carson Osavar is the new Ross Chain.
• 4:40
  Chastain. I was about to say, Hey,
• 4:41
  Wallace, get you out of your mouth.
• 4:43
  Can't you talk? Right?
• 4:44
  Slow down. We jacked up on coffee this
• 4:47
  morning. It's my first cup.
• 4:50
  So when I think Carson Hosavart, I'm thinking, you know, this
• 4:55
  kid, he better get his stuff together.
• 4:59
  However, one thing I do like about Steve Letarte, he like
• 5:04
  Larry Mac rental. I got my notes.
• 5:08
  Did you know that Carson Hosavart is not 30 years old?
• 5:12
  He's not 25 years old. He's still a baby.
• 5:16
  He's 22 years old. He's got a chance to, you know,
• 5:23
  he's like here. Carson Nosovar is a diamond in
• 5:26
  the rough. We you just got to Polish the
• 5:29
  edges up and he's going to be, he's fast right now.
• 5:33
  He runs second last night. So this is this deal where I
• 5:38
  don't like Carson Nosovar, but he runs second.
• 5:44
  He wasn't far away from winning once you start running in the
• 5:46
  top five. But if you're going to become
• 5:50
  part of the boys and you're going to run in the top five,
• 5:53
  now here's Key. I'm going to take a sip of
• 5:56
  coffee. This is key.
• 5:57
  What I'm going to say. When you run in the top five,
• 6:00
  now you're in a Country Club. Now you're racing the boys, now
• 6:06
  you're up front and they don't race like that.
• 6:10
  He's Carson is now he's starting to run up front now.
• 6:16
  You know, the next track they go to the the promoters love it
• 6:20
  because I know the promoters they're like, now I'm on the
• 6:24
  same subject here. I just want to give you an
• 6:26
  example. I wish they wouldn't have calmed
• 6:29
  Ross Chastain down. He was good for ratings when
• 6:32
  Ross Chastain was wrecking everybody.
• 6:35
  You know, we like that the promoters like that.
• 6:38
  So the promoters right now, they're going to tell you we we
• 6:40
  don't want Carson Hosovar neutered.
• 6:44
  We want him to wreck out of everybody because it's good for
• 6:47
  TV ratings. Who's Carson going to piss off
• 6:50
  this week? Now, right now, Carson is the
• 6:57
  best thing that's happened to Spire.
• 6:59
  Spire's a good team. That's the team that my buddy
• 7:03
  Rodney Childers left. You know, Rodney said no harm,
• 7:06
  no foul, just wasn't fitting in. But this is a good team.
• 7:10
  There's a lot of money there now.
• 7:12
  So I like Carson Osvar. I like him because he's a super
• 7:18
  late model racer, runs good up around Michigan and all that.
• 7:22
  He's a super good guy. He's another young Joey Logano.
• 7:27
  He's tall, he's a baby, but he's he's figuring it out.
• 7:33
  And my message to Carson is this Carson, you're in the Country
• 7:38
  Club now. You're you're you're running.
• 7:39
  You're running up there. Pick and choose your battles.
• 7:42
  Because here's why. They going to wreck you right
• 7:46
  back. They going to wreck you right
• 7:48
  back. OK, so I know Ricky Stenhouse's
• 7:52
  friends, they're going to say, Stenhouse, you're a wimp if you
• 7:56
  don't wreck that kid back. You mean to tell me you just let
• 7:59
  him wreck you and you get away with it.
• 8:01
  So it it it's it's not it's not that he, you know, Earnhardt
• 8:06
  used to wreck everybody. Well, here's the difference.
• 8:09
  When Earnhardt wrecked you, he got away from you and he was and
• 8:13
  he was moving on for the win. So we all love Carson.
• 8:18
  I said it. We all love Carson.
• 8:20
  He's awesome. He's another Ross Chastain.
• 8:23
  He's another Ernie Irvin. They coming after you?
• 8:29
  Pick and choose your battles, buddy.
• 8:31
  But we sure do like this show. Hey, Wallace, did you talk out
• 8:35
  of both sides of your mouth this morning?
• 8:38
  I think I did. I think I did.
• 8:41
  We love him wrecking everybody, but I don't want to be in his
• 8:45
  shoes. The next time he goes on the
• 8:46
  track, it looks in the mirror and there's Ricky Stenhouse.
• 8:50
  I'll leave you with this. Everybody.
• 8:52
  You going to play? You got to pay.
