My Take On The Coke 600 & Prime Video Broadcast | Coffee With Kenny · Kenny Wallace Media

• 0:01
  I'm laughing because my hair's sticking up lately here.
• 0:07
  I've been getting my hairs cut shorter and they've
• 0:13
  automatically been, you know, laying kind of nice.
• 0:17
  But today I look like Alfalfa. Remember that?
• 0:23
  What was the name of that show? Alfalfa, when all the the kids
• 0:26
  would run around, all right, respond right here.
• 0:31
  OK, that was crazy. I was saying all right to Kim
• 0:34
  and then telling you to respond right here.
• 0:38
  Well, all right, listen, it is Memorial Day everyone.
• 0:42
  And today I want to say thank you to all the families that
• 0:48
  have lost everybody in all the wars that we've had, everybody
• 0:55
  that we've lost is what today's about.
• 0:57
  Today is Memorial Day. We are memorializing everybody
• 1:01
  that we lost in all the wars. I love you all.
• 1:05
  I love all you families that this is a hard day for some of
• 1:09
  you. So Memorial Day is just that.
• 1:13
  We are memorializing everybody that we lost.
• 1:18
  All right, take it easy today and let's think about everybody
• 1:22
  that we've lost and all the loved ones that are still alive,
• 1:26
  all of you that lost somebody. I love you and I appreciate you
• 1:30
  because we live in the the best land of all United States of
• 1:34
  America, baby, home of the free. It's the best.
• 1:39
  Anybody from anywhere can come over here and start a business.
• 1:44
  And that, my friends, is badass. OK, let's take it.
• 1:49
  Let's take a a sip of this high octane Sunoco coffee.
• 1:57
  There it is. Well, now I know exactly what
• 2:02
  I'm going to talk about today. That Prime Video, they hit it
• 2:07
  out of the park. I mean, if Jack, if old Jeff
• 2:11
  Gluck was to take a little poll right now, I think it'd say 90%
• 2:15
  good, 10% bad. It should be 100% good.
• 2:20
  I'm just giving you, you mean people, The 10%, you know, I
• 2:25
  remember I've always said 80% of the sport, everybody's happy,
• 2:30
  but there's the 20% and a lot of you, you never going to be
• 2:35
  happy, but that's OK. That's OK.
• 2:38
  Because kind of like wrestling, we need the good guy and the bad
• 2:42
  guy. 80% of everybody, 90% of everybody's good right now.
• 2:48
  I've never seen. I've never saw.
• 2:53
  I've never seen saw here I go again, My EDHD.
• 2:58
  I'm thinking about Steve Craddock on my ass.
• 3:00
  When I used to do TV Kenny, he used the word seen and saw in
• 3:05
  the wrong places. I'm like, well, all righty.
• 3:08
  He handed me two papers of perfect, you know, verbiage.
• 3:14
  You know my vocabulary. I'm like, go talk to Larry Mack,
• 3:18
  tell him how to talk. Woke up, looked over.
• 3:22
  It was 10 O 5I like her. I like Kelly Clarkson.
• 3:27
  She's just she's normal seems to be normal.
• 3:30
  I don't want to meet her though, because they say be careful
• 3:34
  don't meet your heroes. They will more than likely
• 3:38
  disappoint you, but you can meet me because if he meet me and
• 3:44
  real I'm awesome. I'm better and real and I'm on
• 3:46
  here. That's what everybody says.
• 3:50
  OK, Prime Video was a blast from the past.
• 3:57
  I thought I was watching speed TV.
• 4:00
  Now we get it free here, we get it free.
• 4:04
  It's just that simple. Because my wife, she's a Prime
• 4:09
  member, you know, we get all those Amazon packages and but
• 4:15
  she's Prime. I mean, we get stuff delivered
• 4:18
  to us on Sunday. She orders everything through
• 4:22
  that Amazon Prime for her wreaths.
• 4:27
  And I'll tell you what, one day my grinder went out.
• 4:30
  My damn grinder went out, 'cause, you know, I grind my
• 4:33
  tires and my dirt tires. I was telling Kim, I said, man,
• 4:36
  my, my grinder burnt up. She goes, oh, I can get you one.
• 4:39
  I said on Amazon. Hell, they got racing parts like
• 4:42
  real ones, like you're in a speed shop.
• 4:46
  Amazon has every damn thing. The next day she did a better
• 4:50
  job getting my own, my tire grinder than I could.
• 4:54
  The next day, my DeWalt grinder showed up.
• 4:58
  I said, well, I'll be damned. So that Amazon Prime, there's
• 5:03
  advantages. So if, if, if you're smart
• 5:06
  enough to work her computer. My wife's my age.
• 5:10
  My my wife is 61 year. She what?
• 5:13
  She's 62 now? No, she's 61.
• 5:16
  I had to think for a minute. I'm 61.
• 5:19
  Kim and myself are 61 and we have our issues and, and we call
• 5:23
  our, we call our, our daughters and our son in laws.
• 5:27
  We get help. We're all too like you.
• 5:31
  But when we need help, we call our three daughters and our
• 5:34
  three son in So we got Amazon Prime right on this TV and it's
• 5:41
  free because, you know, we already have Amazon Prime
• 5:48
  delivery and we buy off Amazon Prime.
• 5:52
  So anyway, the race last night reminded me.
• 5:56
  I thought it was on speed for a minute.
• 5:58
  I was getting a flashback. I'm like, Oh my God.
• 6:01
  So, you know, I flew back and with about 100 laps to go, I
• 6:04
  turned it on right here on this TV, went right to my apps.
• 6:09
  And there it was clear, as clear as day.
• 6:12
  And the race was incredible. I mean, you know, like Richard
• 6:16
  Petty just said Dale Lineman and Richard Petty have a show and
• 6:21
  and they said Richard was Kansas a good race.
• 6:25
  Talk about Kansas couple weeks ago.
• 6:27
  He goes, Oh yeah, as long as there's a chance, a fight for
• 6:30
  the win. And you know, even though Kyle
• 6:36
  Larson won Kansas, there was a chance, you know, somebody could
• 6:40
  catch him there. Well, last night it it was good.
• 6:45
  I'm not, I don't got to convince you people that don't like
• 6:47
  NASCAR, but that was a hell of a race.
• 6:50
  They had a lot of wrecking. And in the end that Ross
• 6:54
  Chastain is the first person since 1969 to start dead last,
• 7:01
  like on purpose. Like, OK, look, he wrecked.
• 7:04
  He didn't qualify. He did not qualify.
• 7:08
  He wrecked his his car had a left footer flap.
• 7:11
  So therefore he had to start last.
• 7:14
  So that's not a choice if he had a qualified, you know, something
• 7:18
  like that. But he's Ross Chastain, the
• 7:22
  first person since 1969, Bobby Allison to start last and win
• 7:29
  slide job. He got a good run on William
• 7:33
  Byron, went low, slid up in front of him, and then he left
• 7:38
  him. Ross Chastain, Watermelon man,
• 7:43
  hail melon slide job. But I'll tell you what, I got to
• 7:48
  give a lot of credit to that. Willie B.
• 7:50
  Now I know why Rick Hendrick. I was about right to say Roy
• 7:55
  Hendrick because they just put Roy Hendrick into the Hall of
• 7:59
  Fame. So I can see why.
• 8:02
  Ray Roy, Rick simmer down her simmer down.
• 8:08
  Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding, Ding. So I can see why Mr. H just
• 8:14
  signed Willie B to a four year extension.
• 8:18
  He's young. Hey, by the way, Steve Letartz
• 8:21
  said something on NASCAR Victory Lane last night.
• 8:25
  He said, I keep thinking about Kosan Ho Carson Hosevar being 40
• 8:29
  years old, 33 years old, 30 years old, Carson Hosevar, 2222.
• 8:38
  That kids going to be a good one.
• 8:40
  He's going to be a good one. Yeah.
• 8:44
  So Prime hit it out of the park. And I'm kind of sad that there's
• 8:49
  only 5 races now. There's only four.
• 8:52
  So some of you, you better get your bitching in quick because
• 8:57
  it's only got four more races. Oh, here's my favorite one.
• 9:02
  Here's my favorite 1. I don't like NASCAR.
• 9:08
  How come I can't get it on my TV?
• 9:12
  You dummies, You just gave it up.
• 9:15
  I saw that about three times yesterday.
• 9:18
  I don't like NASCAR. I can't even get it on my TV.
• 9:23
  You just gave it up. You admitted that you were
• 9:25
  looking for it on your TV. By the way, when I say dummy, I
• 9:31
  don't really mean you're dumb. That's just from remember.
• 9:34
  Oh, oh, Red. The guy on on TV, he'd say.
• 9:38
  He'd call his son. He'd say, you big dummy, oh,
• 9:42
  that was a good show. Hell of a race, hell of a
• 9:45
  broadcast. And I wish they ran all the
• 9:49
  races on prime. Very little commercials.
• 9:53
  I mean, hardly any commercials actually.
• 9:56
  I'm good at TV. And you know, NASCAR Victory
• 9:59
  Lane, that Danielle Trotter, she is good.
• 10:04
  They let her go years ago for just a little bit of a dispute
• 10:07
  over something stupid they messed up and get rid of her.
• 10:11
  You saw last night why they why they hired Danielle Trotta back.
• 10:17
  She carried, she carried that show because there was no
• 10:20
  commercial breaks. They had to be on their toes the
• 10:24
  whole damn show. And there was a moment towards
• 10:27
  the end, they all went silent. And I said, uh oh.
• 10:30
  And she jumped right in with some good information.
• 10:33
  She didn't stutter. She didn't make it up.
• 10:36
  Danielle Trotta, she's very good and the reason she's so smart is
• 10:40
  because she's on she's on SiriusXM NASCAR with Larry Mack
• 10:46
  every day. So that was a good hire by Prime
• 10:49
  because Daniel tried to talks about NASCAR every day.
• 10:53
  Hell, she knows more than they do because she's got to take the
• 10:56
  fans on too. And and Daniel tried to hanging
• 10:59
  out with Larry Mack, you know, Larry Mack's bring his notes,
• 11:04
  brings his notes. So shout out to prime for hiring
• 11:10
  Danielle Trotter. And that was heartfelt.
• 11:13
  I thought Carl Edwards did a good job.
• 11:15
  Corey Lajoie good one. He I like Corey because he's a
• 11:19
  little animated like me. At the end of the show, he
• 11:22
  started cheering, you know, just going, hey, good show.
• 11:24
  And everybody kind of looked at him and I liked it that they
• 11:28
  emptied the booth out after the race.
• 11:30
  They brought Dale Junior Steve Letart down to NASCAR Victory
• 11:35
  Lane, they brought William Byron on the set, they brought Justin
• 11:39
  Marks and Ross Chastain on the set.
• 11:43
  So it was really good and and the channels they don't do they
• 11:48
  don't do they don't stay long. They they leave right away and
• 11:52
  that's that's why I like prime. So we get it free because Kim
• 11:57
  orders everything and I wished every damn race was on prime
• 12:00
  respond right here now the ones that I I had some lady.
• 12:07
  I'm going to leave you with this at the very end there was I'm
• 12:12
  looking at Louie Louie. Hey, what are you doing buddy?
• 12:17
  What are you doing look at them ears.
• 12:19
  Sometimes he don't sit up here he's my buddy once again I'll
• 12:24
  leave you like this. There was a lady on X late last
• 12:28
  night. She says, Kenny, when you do
• 12:30
  coffee with Kenny tomorrow, would you please talk to these
• 12:33
  old people that are stubborn and they just complain instead of
• 12:36
  fixing it? Less complaining people less.
• 12:40
  Less is good. Less is good in this case.
• 12:47
  Sometimes more is good. More Sugar's, you know, good.
• 12:50
  In this case, less complaining is good.
• 12:53
  You're exhausting and I think you lost this battle.
• 12:58
  You, you had to pay. You had to pay.
• 13:00
  Remember back in the day, they had all these different
• 13:03
  programs. If if you buy this, you get this
• 13:05
  channel, you had to pay to get speed too.
• 13:07
  You had to pay a little more. I know that 'cause I worked for
• 13:11
  them. So to get speed, you had to
• 13:14
  have, you'd have this, this program.
• 13:16
  Remember, they're different tiers, Tier 1, Tier 2 tier, the
• 13:20
  big tier got you some movies. I'm not trying to convince you
• 13:23
  to like Prime. I'm just saying it was good and
• 13:25
  I told you all the reasons why the race was good, the
• 13:29
  production was good. There was hardly any
• 13:32
  commercials. They had pre and post and that
• 13:35
  pre race. I'm telling you what, I'm proud
• 13:37
  of that pre race because that was NASCAR race day.
• 13:42
  Fueled by Sunoco. Yes, it was.
• 13:45
  They copied Rs. They was down there on Pritt
• 13:47
  Road. Everybody was going crazy behind
• 13:50
  them. All right, everybody, take it
• 13:54
  easy today. Be with your loved ones.
• 13:56
  Say a little prayer for the families that have lost somebody
• 14:00
  in war. God Bless America.
• 14:02
  I love you all.
