Dale Earnhardt Jr. turns back the hands of time as he sits down with his childhood friend and longtime race car fabricator Brad Means. The two first met on the NASCAR Cup circuit in the mid-1980s, as Brad was traveling with his father Jimmy Means, who was a mainstay in stock car racing. Dale explains that he developed an admiration for Jimmy at an early age due to his hard work and determination as an underdog, independent runner in the Cup Series. After meeting through their fathers, Brad and Dale began hanging out on a weekly basis at the track, spending time watching the races, hanging out in the drivers’ lounge, and running go-karts.

Brad also set out to become a racer, following in his father’s footsteps into the world of NASCAR racing. Brad's dad Jimmy recognized an extraordinary ability in Brad and recommended that he pursue his talent of fabricating and hanging bodies, as there were many jobs available for skilled crafters in the garage at the time. This led Brad to work at many legendary teams like Richard Childress Racing, Robert Yates, and Roush. Brad spent many years on the move before settling in with ThorSport, where he currently hangs NASCAR Truck bodies and serves as a truck chief for Ty Majeski.

The two also discuss how the Truck Series is the "final frontier of innovation" in the sport, and share their favorite "creativity" stories from over the years.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. welcomes longtime NASCAR commentator and his former NBC co-worker Rick Allen to the Download this week. The two discuss Rick’s upbringing, time together in the booth, and Allen’s departure from NBC following the 2024 season.

After growing up as a track and field collegiate star in Nebraska and competing on a professional level internationally, Rick first found his way into a commentator’s booth through boredom. Rick explains that during track and field events at the University of Nebraska, he began picking up the microphone and saying traditional phrases such as “quiet for the start please” and “the event is about to begin”. He found that he enjoyed the experience and asked for more opportunities, which began with a women’s gymnastics meet. When the hired commentator for the university’s football team didn’t show up, Rick was in the right place at the right time and became the voice of the Cornhuskers for ten years.

Rick’s journey into auto racing came thanks to a University of Nebraska alumni and donor, who purchased nearby Eagle Raceway. Despite having no experience in racing, he invited Rick to call the races through the summer. While there, Rick caught the ear of longtime NASCAR official Tom Deery who recommended he send a demo tape in to FOX and NBC, who were getting ready to take over NASCAR’s broadcasting duties. After a rocky start, Rick became the voice of the NASCAR Truck Series and went on to become synonymous with the sport until leaving NBC at the end of the 2024 season. The interview covers Rick’s rise to becoming the voice of the Cup Series, working with Dale Jr. in the booth, some of his iconic moments behind the mic, and what he’s up to this year.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. welcomes Top-40 music artist and longtime NASCAR fan Edwin McCain to the Download to chat about his journey from a humble, local music scene to writing one of the most memorable songs in history. Edwin also shares how Dale Jr.'s 2001 July Daytona win had a profound impact on his life.

After being born in Greenville, South Carolina, Edwin was put up for adoption but admits he has never sought out much information about his biological mother. Dale and Edwin relate on the experience of asking parents hard questions at the end of their lives to get the real picture of their upbringing. Edwin explains he began playing music at an early age after struggling in school due to dyslexia. He and Dale chat about the music they enjoyed growing up and what musicians were a major influence on Edwin, and led him to pick up a guitar.

Edwin gives listeners an idea of what the music scene was like in the mid-90s, when he, Dave Matthews and Hootie and the Blowfish were finding their way to major record label contracts. Edwin admits that his signing was largely thanks to the kindness of Hootie, who asked Atlantic Records to give him a shot. After an underperforming debut, in part due to Edwin’s disconnection from the project, Edwin saved his career with the smash hit “I’ll Be,” which remains one of the greatest love songs ever written. Edwin talks candidly about developing an addiction problem and his journey to rehab. Today, he is on the other side of hardship and celebrating the release of his new album “Lucky,” which is his first new release in almost 15 years.
