  I was up early this morning and I don't know why, but I feel
• 0:06
  good. I feel good.
• 0:09
  I can know that I should now. OK.
• 0:16
  What day is it? What day is day?
• 0:19
  Wallace, Are you going to tell us the wrong date?
• 0:27
  I have no idea who sent me this, but it came Amazon and it said
• 0:34
  Herman, they sent it to me. Whoever sent me this, I love
• 0:40
  you. It is awesome.
• 0:42
  It makes me laugh and I've got it set.
• 0:45
  So today is Sunday. Oh, boy, when you have as much
• 0:52
  fun as I do every day Saturday. But in this case, today is
• 0:58
  Sunday, and I've tried to set our hand the best I could.
• 1:04
  So anyway, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
• 1:07
  You made me laugh. OK, today is a lot about
• 1:11
  everything. Two things right away.
• 1:18
  This reminds me, back in the good old days, you know, Jake
• 1:22
  Elder was a legendary crew chief.
• 1:24
  But did you know Jake? He was I'm going to be nice
• 1:30
  because I worked under Jake Elder suitcase.
• 1:33
  Jake, they said Jake, you know I'm going to say it nice.
• 1:41
  OK, Jake could not spell correctly, but anyway, he's at
• 1:50
  Talladega and he said 4 tires. He keyed his buddy said, all
• 1:58
  right, all right, boys, 4 tires, 4 tires instead of instead of
• 2:04
  four tires. Lewis, Jake.
• 2:08
  OK everybody, I-55 Federated Auto Parts Raceway, only 10
• 2:17
  minutes from my house, the World of Outlaws Wing Sprint cars,
• 2:23
  April 10th and 11th. So we're getting closer and
• 2:27
  closer, and I keep talking more and more about it.
• 2:31
  As you can tell now, I love my friends down there in Pevely, MO
• 2:37
  at I-55 Federated Auto Parts Raceway.
• 2:42
  And yes, that is a mouthful. OK, more news.
• 2:47
  Boy, we got lots of stuff going on today.
• 2:49
  I was on social media and it was like 750 AM in the morning and
• 2:57
  Dale Junior was on there. It's just going away, talking
• 3:01
  about ACC, some type of college. They get this damn college.
• 3:07
  I mean, listen to leave it up to me to make fun of it.
• 3:10
  I know you all are dead serious about it.
• 3:12
  I know that your life is all about college football.
• 3:17
  But this, it is like a EIOU ABCDEFGAACC.
• 3:26
  The ACC won't let me be Dale Junior's at 7:50 in the morning,
• 3:32
  wide awake, talk about the ACC. So I said Junior.
• 3:40
  My hot times have changed. It was like yesterday when Dale
• 3:43
  Junior would sleep till 12/1 in the day and his dad, Dale
• 3:49
  Senior, would kick the door in. Boy, get your ass out of bed.
• 3:55
  Hey, that was my first cuss word in four days or so.
• 4:02
  How am I doing? How do you like me now?
• 4:06
  How do you like me now? All right, I just saw on the
• 4:14
  news that that drinking alcohol is way down.
• 4:21
  So that that takes me back to the Mayo Clinic.
• 4:24
  When I went for my physical, I went to Rochester, MN, had the
• 4:29
  best time ever. Who knew it could be so much fun
• 4:33
  to get great doctors, the doctors I love talking to
• 4:37
  doctors when it comes to my body and they become your friends.
• 4:42
  But I'll never forget Doctor Lundstrom at the Mayo Clinic in
• 4:47
  Rochester, MN. I said I I don't drink anymore.
• 4:51
  Doctor. He goes good.
• 4:54
  And he he talked to me about how drinking alcohol he just put
• 5:00
  instead me. I'm an old redneck.
• 5:01
  I'd say, man that goes Oh my God, that was my second cuss
• 5:05
  word in four days. I apologize.
• 5:08
  But he said, you know, alcohol is a neuro killer means your
• 5:12
  brain. I watched this morning.
• 5:17
  Alcohol or people drinking is way down, way down.
• 5:22
  So maybe people will get smarter.
• 5:26
  Stop thinking about drinking. Why do we drink to cop a buzz
• 5:30
  act, you know, numb your brain. It is it is a weird phenomenon.
• 5:37
  I'm going to drink, so I don't know where I'm at.
• 5:42
  OK. The real subject matter of the
• 5:44
  day, the economy is booming. Gas prices are way down, The
• 5:50
  stock market is way up. And I'll take a page from Kyle
• 5:57
  Petty. Kyle Petty says you can follow
• 6:01
  the car counts in auto racing by the stock market because
• 6:06
  everything we do in racing or in sports sponsorship, it follows
• 6:11
  the stock market. So the, the stock market is
• 6:14
  basically like going to Vegas. You're put some money behind
• 6:18
  these companies as they grow, they go public and you're like,
• 6:22
  hey, John Deere, I think you're going to do pretty good this
• 6:25
  year. So I, I buy some stock, but if
• 6:28
  you're no redneck like me, it means that basically I'm going
• 6:31
  to, I'm going to put down $100 on, I'm going to put some money
• 6:36
  on your company thinking you're going to do pretty good.
• 6:38
  And if you do good, you're going to give me some earnings back.
• 6:43
  So the stock market closed at an enormous record high of 49,000.
• 6:51
  Well, I, I looked at the Tulsa Shootout in Tulsa, OK, Now the
• 6:58
  Chili Bowl, they start practicing today on this Sunday.
• 7:02
  But the Tulsa shootout had a record 2000 race cars for that
• 7:08
  seven or eight day show. Then they're out of Casa Grande
• 7:15
  at in Arizona for the Wild West shootout like right at fifty of
• 7:22
  the best ground pounding, mind boggling super late miles.
• 7:27
  Ricky Thornton won last night. Then you look at the Modifieds
• 7:32
  and K Diller one and it's like 60 of those and then there's
• 7:38
  like 60 of the of like a hundred, 160 race cars.
• 7:43
  My friends. Say what you will, but things
• 7:47
  are things are booming now. Psychologically in your brain.
• 7:52
  Things are a little wild right now.
• 7:54
  Like the way people want to live that that that's always been
• 7:58
  crazy. But when it comes to finances,
• 8:02
  things are really good right now.
• 8:05
  Sponsors are sponsors are doing good.
• 8:10
  And so I have just noticed that and I wanted to bring that up,
• 8:15
  that when you see gas prices as cheap as they are, that means
• 8:18
  these dirt teams that they can travel cheaper.
• 8:22
  When you see the stock market up, that means that people,
• 8:27
  companies, they're like, hey, we're doing good, we'll sponsor
• 8:30
  you. All right, Sunday morning,
• 8:35
  everybody. Have a great Sunday and respond
• 8:41
  right here and thank you so much.
• 8:44

• 8:50
