  Happy Monday morning everybody. Louis up on his perch this
• 0:08
  morning. Clouds are rolling in here to
• 0:11
  Saint Louis. You know when I look at my
• 0:14
  weather app for this whole week it shows rain everyday.
• 0:19
  You ever seen anything like that where you look on a weather app
• 0:22
  or you watch The Weather Channel on TV and show rain every single
• 0:26
  day for like 6 straight days? You're like really?
• 0:30
  Really you. You mean tell me it's going to
• 0:33
  rain every day? Every single day?
• 0:37
  I think sometimes The Weather Channel says that just to cover
• 0:42
  their butt. What do you think?
• 0:44
  You think it can really? Can it really rain every single
• 0:47
  day? I mean, this ain't Oregon and
• 0:50
  this this or Seattle, this ain't Seattle.
• 0:53
  Sleepless in Seattle. That's what I think about.
• 0:59
  All right everybody, here we are.

  This is my big week, this is my big weekend.
• 1:06
  I go back racing. I've already run 8 races this
• 1:10
  year and we've already got one big win down at Volusia Speed
• 1:14
  Weeks. I'm looking forward to getting
• 1:16
  back into my race car, my new Mobile One race car.

  So I'm going to prove the design today and tomorrow.

• 1:33
  tomorrow. Then tomorrow night I'm going to
• 1:35
  head on down to Willie's carburetor and we're going to
• 1:38
  Dino the motor. We're going to work very hard on
• 1:41
  getting the motor tuned up so it lasts me all year long.
• 1:45
  Get it tuned right. Oh, Louis finally just decided
• 1:48

• 3:06
  OK, switching subjects. Ty Gibbs the man of the hour.
• 3:16
  So about a month ago I had a really nice Kenny conversation
• 3:21
  with Ty Gibbs. Ty Gibbs has accomplished more
• 3:27
  than a lot of people know. So I looked up all Ty Gibbs
• 3:32
  history before I went to have a Kenny conversation with him and
• 3:37
  I'm telling you what this kid has got it going on.
• 3:39
  He's won and everything he's won in ARCA, he's won in O'Reilly
• 3:44
  Championship. I mean, Ty Gibbs, as you can
• 3:49
  tell by yesterday's incredible side by
• 4:12
  He's Joe Gibbs, his grandson. He shouldn't be able to drive
• 4:16
  the car because he's family, people, people.
• 4:22
  So if you got a son or daughter, we you don't want them to do,
• 4:25
  you don't want them to be be good enough.
• 4:27
  You know, you, you're going to you're my daughter, you're my
• 4:30
  son. So I'm going to suppress you.
• 4:32
  I'm going to make sure you don't get anything because strangers
• 4:35
  don't want you to have my ride. Listen, everybody's going to run
• 4:40
  into each other. That's competition.
• 4:42
  So you know, I see some people I don't like Ty Gibbs because he
• 4:48
  got the ride because it's his grandpa and he wrecked my
• 4:51
  driver. Well, let me let me give you my
• 4:56
  opinion on Ty Gibbs big win yesterday.
• 5:00
  First of all, it was a no doubter.
• 5:02
  It was a tough win. He's leading caution comes out
• 5:07
  re rack them put the champion Ryan Blaney put the champion
• 5:11
  side by side with him could have could have been the preferred
• 5:14
  lane at that moment with, you know, on on A2 lap shootout, 2
• 5:19
  lap shootout. That's key.
• 5:21
  And I'll tell you what Ryan Blaney is a hell of a race car
• 5:23
  driver. Great man, good person,
• 5:25
  beautiful family. And it was it was the case of
• 5:30
  two drivers that had deep family tradition, you know, Joe Gibbs
• 5:39
  and then you know, Ryan Blaney with his dad and the grandpa Lou
• 5:43
  Blaney there they are side by side and Blaney peddles that car
• 5:46
  hard on the bottom. And I mean, just about just
• 5:49
  about wins it. Ty Gibbs wins it by what, 5
• 5:53
  feet? But both of them keep their
• 5:55
  control. And you can tell Blaney coming
• 5:57
  up off of Turn 2 gets a little bit loose, just a little bit,
• 6:00
  but still goes through that turn 3 and 4 fast, makes it close.
• 6:07
  But one thing that stands out to me about Ty Gibbs is this, you
• 6:13
  know, you it's like, oh, Bill Elliott said timing and
• 6:16
  circumstances. You can't control these things.
• 6:19
  So Chris, Chris Gabbard, Joe Gibbs, you know, Joe Gibbs
• 6:24
  Racing is suing Chris Gabbard. So what what do they call that
• 6:28
  discovery, what they discovered through the this lawsuit with
• 6:34
  Coach Joe Gibbs, Joe Gibbs Racing and Chris Gaybart?
• 6:37
  Chris Gaybart, remember, was Ty Gibbs crew chief at one point
• 6:45
  there was some things said that weren't very nice.
• 6:50
  And, you know, basically it made Ty Gibbs look bad, I guess.
• 6:55
  Gabe Hart was making $25,000 a race to crew chief Ty Gibbs in
• 7:01
  the O'Reilly Auto Parts series. And here all of a sudden, Ty
• 7:09
  Gibbs, his team, the Cup team right now, it's very timely.
• 7:15
  The whole team knew this, they, they felt this lawsuit and these
• 7:19
  bad words being spoken. So they, they, they glue
• 7:22
  together and who's winning? I mean, Ty Gibbs and the team,
• 7:29
  the new team, they're winning. They won his very first Cup
• 7:35
  race. So it is, it is a lesson to
• 7:38
  never give up. Listen, when you go from ARCA to
• 7:42
  O'Reilly to the Cup Series, that wall might as well be as the
• 7:46
  highest wall in the world. Because when you get to the Cup
• 7:49
  Series, that is the highest form of Motorsports there is in
• 7:53
  America. The the very best are there.
• 7:57
  That is another reason why I don't agree with this, this
• 8:00
  crazy argument about the Hall of Fame.
• 8:02
  You're you're still never going to convince me that if you do
• 8:06
  good and O'Reilly, you deserve to be in the Hall of Fame.
• 8:08
  Next to Richard Petty and Dale Earnhardt senior and Jimmie
• 8:12
  Johnson and Jeff Gordon. Everybody will tell you out of
• 8:16
  one side they'll go, Oh my God, the Cup series is way harder
• 8:20
  than O'Reilly auto parts. But then all of a sudden, you
• 8:24
  know they'll put you in the Hall of Fame if you do something good
• 8:28
  in the lower series. Make makes no sense.
• 8:31
  So everybody knows how good Ty Gibbs is.
• 8:35
  So congratulations for all the reasons I just said, Ty Gibbs,
• 8:40
  against all odds. And with that, good morning,
• 8:44
  beautiful. Hi.
• 8:46
  What are you going to do today? Work downstairs.
• 8:49
  Tell me about your wreaths making specialty.
• 8:52
  Wreaths I am. Yeah, Where do they go to get
• 8:55
  your wreaths? Where do they go?
• 8:57
  Wreaths by Kim. Yes, or they can just text me
• 9:02
  and. What's your phone number?
• 9:04
  704-361-7116 only for wreaths, not Kenny Wallace.
• 9:13
  Oh, what, you don't want them to call you and talk to me?
• 9:16
  No, I'm too busy. I told her, I said you give that
• 9:21
  phone number out. I said that's a dumb move.
• 9:24
  She has. She has people call her up and
• 9:26
  chew her ass out about me. I'm like, I wouldn't pay
• 9:28
  attention. To it but.
• 9:31
  You've had a couple of them, I only.
• 9:32
  Had a. Couple people, well tell me
• 9:33
  about this what what you have people call up and want to rough
• 9:36
  you up about me. Yeah, just two people did in the
• 9:40
  whole years that you've been racing, so not too bad.
• 9:43
  All right. I love you everybody.
• 9:45
  Likes you. I love you.
• 9:47
  I love. You too.
• 9:48
  You're my baby. I put her on the spot.
• 9:53
  She's like, turn that damn phone away from me.
• 9:55
  All right? Have a great Monday, everybody.
