Key Discussion Points & Insights

1. FanDuel Betting & Amy’s Foray into Gambling

• Amy shares her excitement dipping into fantasy football and betting on the Super Bowl, quickly earning and then ghosting her bonus bets.
• Dale Jr. affectionately teases Amy’s approach: “She’s like, I want to bet on the game... She bet the Eagles to win. They won. You made—you know.” (02:11)
• Amy admits to copying bets from their friend Tim, leading to some success and a funny misunderstanding about hockey periods:
  • Amy: “I stayed up to watch all three of the periods, and I didn’t watch the fourth one because I was tired.”
  • Dale Jr: “Amy, there are only three.” (03:18)

2. Parasite Cleansing and the Enema Chronicles

• Amy dives into her conviction that everyone harbors parasites, advocating for regular cleanses and even enemas—even giving Dale two himself for "medical reasons":
  • Amy: “You just take specific tinctures that help kill the parasite. So you just pass them out your bottom.” (05:30)
  • Dale Jr.: “Me and my friends called it the iron gut… I’m not a lightweight. I’ve got an iron gut gut.” (04:46–04:57)
  • Amy quips about Dale’s own issues: “You do not have an iron gut. You have a baby gut. You have issues with your gut all the time. Pooping.” (05:10)

3. Time Travel, Conspiracies & Open-Minded Philosophy

• Amy raises the viral internet story about a 1900 book predicting Trump/Barron as the last president, and asks Dale if he believes time travel could be real. Dale’s take is both whimsical and strangely logical:
  • Dale Jr: “How can time travel not be real, Amy?” (09:41)
  • Amy: “It’s just so hard for me to believe that someone who doesn’t like metal chopsticks can believe time travel is real.” (11:11)
  • Dale Jr: “If time travel was real—there would be a folly of sorts that would provide us all, like, the context of, oh, crap, it is real… But I would say that it’s absolutely more than likely real... I just have an open mind.” (11:17–13:25)

4. Odd Athletic Gear & Sports Culture Trends

• The duo unpacks their confusion over male athletes wearing what looks like sports bras. Connor, their friend, explains it is a GPS tracker for athletic performance—a revelation that doesn’t exactly satisfy them:
  • Dale Jr: “It looks like a sports bra. It’s shaped like a sports bra… Well, it turns out it’s like a GPS tracker.” (15:45–16:29)
  • Amy: “There’s so many other options, like heart rate tracking, like watches, bands, whatever, that don’t look like a woman’s bra.” (16:39)

5. The Elusive Red Bull Hat – Symbol of Athletic Status

• Dale’s ego is hilariously bruised when told he can’t wear a Red Bull hat unless he’s a bonafide Red Bull athlete—even on his own property.
  • Dale Jr: “Connor goes, oh, you can’t wear a Red Bull hat. You’re not a Red Bull athlete. And I was like, who the—are you, you know, telling me what I can and can’t wear on my own property!” (19:49)
• The duo details the ceremonial significance for Red Bull athletes receiving a hat, including watching a gamer get “crowned” in person.

6. Domestic Mishaps: The Roomba “Mr. Mom” Escapade & Garage Door Crash

• Amy shares her naked, towel-clad dash avoiding cleaning crews, the Roomba’s ill-timed escape, and eventually running into the garage door:
  • Amy: “I don’t have a damn clue where Mr. Mom ended up.” (24:11)
  • Amy: “I ran into the garage door… I hit it pretty hard. The car is fine. Everything’s fine.” (23:57–24:57)
• Discussion about the double standards of household accidents (“Why do men get away with stuff like that without getting scolded, but women don’t?” 24:35)

7. The Doctor Portal Incident – TMI & Digital Awkwardness

• Dale and Amy riff on the discomfort and confusion of using a digital patient portal for test results, leading to mortifying oversharing:
  • Dale Jr: “I’m like, yeah, well, that one thing might be high because I did have sex, you know, within 36 hours of the test. I’m thinking I’m having a conversation with my doctor, and all of a sudden… another person replies. She goes, y’all can talk about this when you come for the visit. And I was like, what? Someone else is here?” (27:07–28:34)
  • Amy: “Well, she should feel terrible for interrupting. I’m so embarrassed. The portal’s weird.” (29:12)

8. The Surreal “Boutique Steakhouse” Dinner

• Dale tells a bizarre story of attending a steakhouse hidden inside a combo women’s boutique and butcher case, including a fashion show and random musical interludes:
  • Dale Jr: “We walked into the door and there was swimwear, blouses, and then a glass booth… with hanging meat… It’s a boutique, makeup girl, meat!” (34:41–36:05)
  • Amy: “So the music comes on…but there’s no MC like, hey guys…” (39:01)
  • Models and a Billy Ray Cyrus lookalike guitarist appear, playing for only a minute. Overstimulated, Dale’s crew leaves early.

9. Trevor Bayne & Dale Jr. Jerky – The David Chang Taste Test

• Dale recounts chef David Chang trying his beef jerky:
  • Dale Jr: “He’s just like doing his chef thing—‘sweet, salty, proper chew.’… I was not worried the least bit that he was gonna dislike it.” (44:32–45:08)
  • Amy: “Were you sitting there waiting for him to say anything negative, like a real critique?” (44:46)

10. Houseboat Ventures & The Generator Fiasco

• The story of acquiring “She Said No,” their dream houseboat, after a year of online stalking, complete with mechanical foibles and marital negotiation:
  • Dale Jr: “This is the universe. This is fate. It’s a sign. It’s calling me. The boat needs to be in my life.” (48:46)
  • Amy: “Took me a solid four hours to truly relax… we cruise… then all of a sudden, the boat dies.” (50:02–50:27)
  • Dale’s generator troubleshooting skills win out, but just barely.

11. Flying Anxieties & The Landing Gear Panic

• Amy’s anxiety ramps up on a flight when she doesn’t hear the landing gear, leading to mutual spiraling and an awkward remark to their trusted pilot:
  • Dale Jr: “We thought for a second, we weren’t sure we heard the landing gear land. And I thought, man, we’re gonna land this thing, slide off the end of the runway. And that came out of my mouth to the guy who was on the plane with us when we slid off the end of the runway in Bristol.” (57:41–58:09)

12. Southern Pickle Obsession & the Great Germantown Pickle Heist

• Amy reveals Dale’s pickle obsession, down to flying to Maryland just to restock Butler’s Orchard pickles after forgetting a jar, admitting to “hoarding” techniques:
  • Dale Jr: “I walk over and just take a little swig like I’m drinking moonshine. This stuff is so good.” (62:51)
  • Amy: “He likes to hoard the pickles. He likes them so much he really doesn’t want anybody else to eat them…he’ll keep them in the garage.” (66:09)
  • Comparison to Elvis flying across the country for a meal: “I felt like Elvis Presley, man, in the middle of the night.” (64:00)

[Narrator/Advertiser]

Tain takes on Ole Miss, followed by.

[Dale Jr]

James Madison in Oregon. It's time to bring it first round coverage of the college football playoffs presented by all state Saturday at 3:30 Eastern on TNT and HBO. Max, are you ready? Let's go. Hey, everyone. Producer Alex here. I hope you're having a great off season. We. We had a blast this year on Bless yous Heart, the first year of Bless yous Heart. And before we go on to the new year, we wanted to run back some of the best moments from this past year. Enjoy. The following is a production of Dirty Mo Media.

[Amy]

Bless your heart. Oh, yeah. This is the way it's gonna be, girl. We're gonna hang out.

[Dale Jr]

Oh, you look amazing.

[Amy]

I could stare at you all day. Are you kidding me? I couldn't believe it. What's going on? The world is not your trash can.

[Dale Jr]

I slept till 2, smoking cigarettes and drinking the.

[Amy]

Lord have mercy.

[Dale Jr]

Let's talk about fan duel.

[Amy]

Okay.

[Dale Jr]

All right. So we. This is a, you know, this is not an ad because we do have a fanduel partnership here at Dirty Mo Media. But similar to how. Similar to how excited I was when you wanted to get in fantasy football the other day. You were like, make me a fan dual account. And it was for the Super Bowl. And I was like, damn. All right. She's like, I want to bet on the game.

[Amy]

Yeah, that's right.

[Dale Jr]

You bet on the Eagles to win. They won. You made. You know.

[Amy]

Yeah. So I'm like, if I go to Vegas, I want to put it all on black. I'm not putting it all over the table. So I want to say just to.

[Dale Jr]

Play a win or lose. Yeah, yeah. And so you had a great experience and then you were gifted $200 in bonus bets.

[Amy]

Yeah. So they gave me $200 in bonus bets for my small little winnings. They're like, okay, Amy, come on back. And so I. What do you call it? Ghosted.

[Dale Jr]

They expire in seven days.

[Amy]

They expire in seven days. So as soon as we get back from Daytona, I have, like, hours, an hour, whatever, to do my bets. And so instead of trying to put too much thought into it, I basically just copied all of Tim's bets.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah, Tim had a parlay.

[Amy]

Yeah, it's parlay.

[Dale Jr]

And you?

[Amy]

I won two of the three. It was fun. I was. I was really, really hoping that the hockey team would pull that last one off.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Dale Jr]

We were a day ahead. So they. I didn't know they were going to bench all their players, and that was a bad luck for us. They still almost won, and they had half their players out.

[Amy]

But I told Dale I was telling him this yesterday. I stayed up to watch all three of the periods, and I didn't watch the fourth one because I was tired. He's like, amy, there are only three. I was like, oh, well, then I saw them.

[Dale Jr]

She's like, oh, man, I'm tired. Third period's over. Hopefully they. I'm like, that's the end of the game. Yeah, Law and Order is on now, but that's fine.

[Amy]

I didn't get that far. I didn't get into the commercial.

[Dale Jr]

Game's over.

[Amy]

Clearly, I was tired.

[Dale Jr]

So let me ask you this. The parasites, you believe we all have.

[Amy]

Some sort of a 100%, we all.

[Dale Jr]

Have parasites thing going on?

[Amy]

If you eat anything that's natural, raw foods, there's a likelihood that there's some type of a parasite.

[Dale Jr]

Microscopic sort of sushi things. Yeah.

[Amy]

Any undercooked meats? Absolutely.

[Dale Jr]

And so they're all.

[Amy]

And your body can naturally get rid of some of them.

[Dale Jr]

Your body can take care of that.

[Amy]

But if you have never. If you overdo your liver with life as we do sometimes, alcohol, processed foods, whatever. Your body can't keep up.

[Dale Jr]

No, no, no. So I feel like that the more alcohol I drink, the better and stronger my body is.

[Amy]

So here's the thing. There are videos on the Internet where you can see what, vodka or, you know, olive juice, like, vinegars, onion juice, garlic. They can actually dissolve and kill parasites almost instantly. You can watch it happen, but your liver gets in the middle of that. You're not, like, dropping alcohol straight into a parasite's mouth when you drink it. So it doesn't work like that in your body.

[Dale Jr]

Me and my friends called it the iron gut.

[Amy]

Well, there is such a thing as, like, having a.

[Dale Jr]

You build up a tolerance.

[Amy]

Yeah. Your body gets used to your actions for sure.

[Dale Jr]

I'm not a lightweight. I've got an iron gut gut. I feel like the things that I've done, and I don't think that there's putting a few parasites down in there are probably pretty good. They're probably eating up some.

[Amy]

Let's just stop.

[Dale Jr]

They're probably eating some bad things.

[Amy]

You do not have an iron gut. You have a baby gut. You have issues with your gut all the time. Pooping.

[Dale Jr]

Oh, I poop regularly. That's probably good.

[Amy]

I think that you have intolerances to dairy and meat, and we've talked about that. If you eat those things, especially at the same time, it smells like a dead animal's in the house.

[Dale Jr]

Oh, gosh.

[Amy]

I think you could benefit heavily from a cleanse. And we've done cleanses together. This one's not so different. You just take specific tinctures that help kill the parasite. So you just pass them out.

[Dale Jr]

You pass them out your bottom.

[Amy]

You pass them out your bottom. There's an enema that you do every day.

[Dale Jr]

Oh, no.

[Amy]

You flush it out.

[Dale Jr]

What, you give yourself an enema?

[Amy]

Yeah. You gave yourself an enema. I've done that before. Remember I told you I was doing coffee enemas?

[Dale Jr]

Explain to me the enema process.

[Amy]

You shove a hose up your rear end.

[Dale Jr]

Jesus.

[Amy]

And the water drains in. And then it all comes out.

[Dale Jr]

I can't do it. I'm not doing that.

[Amy]

I've given you an enema before.

[Dale Jr]

Stop it. Don't tell everybody that I was having a medical issue.

[Amy]

It's called a colonoscopy. You didn't have an issue. No, I've given you two, actually.

[Dale Jr]

I was having a medical issue in my gut and was on some medication.

[Amy]

Yeah. Well, anyway, I gave you the enema.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah.

[Amy]

I. So I know how to do this. And it's really not that traumatic. So anyway, that's love, right there. It is love.

[Dale Jr]

That's love I've done. That's when you know.

[Amy]

Yeah.

[Dale Jr]

When she will look at your bottom and she's still with you the next day.

[Amy]

Visual of the whole process.

[Dale Jr]

Now, when she sees the worst parts of you and she's still there, that's when you know. All right. I mean, that's the show. Good job. Hey, hope you all enjoyed the fourth and final episode. Bless your heart.

[Amy]

I have given myself coffee enemas in the last several months.

[Dale Jr]

What the is that?

[Amy]

So there's enema grade coffee that is, like, mold free and all the things. And it helps to flush your liver. So, like, going backwards, basically, from doing the cleanse, like taking all the tinctures, you're just drinking coffee no, you're not drinking it. You put it in the enema bag and it goes up.

[Dale Jr]

No way.

[Amy]

Yes. And so I. Stop, stop. You stop. I have got to tell you this. I passed a parasite.

[Dale Jr]

You don't know the entire world the.

[Amy]

Very first time I did that. So now I know I have a picture which I won't share with the world. That's too much.

[Dale Jr]

But I know it's a real parasite.

[Amy]

Yes. What I'm saying is I know there's probably some more in there. Oh, I'm sure that's why I want to do this.

[Dale Jr]

Listen, I'm all for parasite cleansing. I'm all for. I believe, yes. There's probably some little things running around in your gut. You're like, yep, I could live with it, but probably get it on out, be better. And I'm gonna take this cleanse and poop out some parasites. Awesome.

[Amy]

So here's the thing. When they die in your gut, it can cause type all types of gas and like stomach pains and things like that. So that's why the enemas in place, so you can get them out faster too.

[Dale Jr]

Too graphic?

[Amy]

It's pretty graphic.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Yeah. It's not for the light hearted.

[Dale Jr]

You're tough, you're. You're.

[Amy]

I'm a little weird. It's okay.

[Dale Jr]

I mean, hey, we're all weird.

[Amy]

But I feel like knowing now that I had that one come out that very first time, you're on the right track and I want them out. I can't stop thinking about it. So here we are, we're sitting on the couch, I'm looking at my phone and the kids have gone to bed already. We've had a couple of high rock cocktails and I see this Joe Rogan clip come up about. He's interviewing someone and I forget who it was, but there's a book that was written in 1900 legitimately. This book exists and it tells a story about basically predicting the future of Trump or Barron. Actually Barron Trump is the last president. And I don't have the details because I didn't get the book. I didn't really want to go down that rabbit hole, but it basically kind of foreshadows all the things that are currently happening and might happen in the future with Baron. And so I'm like, this is really weird. How can someone possibly know that? Do you think that time travel is real? Do you think that this person actually traveled through time and wrote the book? Kind of like Back to the future with the almanac. Is it possible that that's real. And Dale Jr looks over at me and goes, how can time travel not be real, Amy? And I looked at. I'm like, wait, what? And that's all he told me. There was nothing else. And so I want an explanation as to how he has just so adamantly come to that conclusion and could just drop that bomb like that and then just leave it. Please explain.

[Dale Jr]

Well, I don't have, like, hard evidence, but you make a great point.

[Amy]

Well, no one does. That's. There's so many theories about things that you feel like could plot, you know, really plausibly be real, but there's no real evidence.

[Dale Jr]

The way I feel about it is. So there are a lot of scenarios, kind of like this book, right, that you're talking about. There's a lot of things that will. That'll kind of pop up in. In pop culture conversation about time travel. And there's been sitcoms and shows about it. And so, you know, it's. Time travel has kind of always been just like back to the future. Right. It's always been this. This mystery and this. This thing that we all wonder about.

[Amy]

What I wonder is who said it first?

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. So my. My feeling is, is that it's more than.

[Narrator/Advertiser]

I don't.

[Dale Jr]

I would say that, if I had to guess, it is absolutely more than likely real. Like, it's more. I would say that it's. It's more likely that time travel is possible and that there are. You know, so you got to think about, like, in. About, you know, there's a. There's a. There.

[Amy]

It's just so hard for me to believe that someone who doesn't like metal chopsticks can believe that time travel is real. Like, how does that go together?

[Dale Jr]

There's some. There are some things that are missing to convince me that time travel is real. Right. If time travel was real. We're humans. We're imperfect. We're. We're. We screw up, somebody would slip up somehow. If time travel was real, some way, somehow it would. There would be a folly of sorts that would provide us all, like, the context of, oh, crap, it is real. Right. And so.

[Amy]

But please keep going. That makes me feel like I got a hard question for you.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. So. So that makes. So that makes me. That makes me doubt time travel because there isn't any real hard evidence. It just feels like if it was real, there would be hard evidence. But I also know that, like, I don't know how far into the future the human race goes. I imagine every several million years there's like a turnover of. Just like the dinosaurs, right? The dinosaurs are roaming the earth. Something happens, you know, meteor, whatever. Dinosaurs are gone. There is got to be an endpoint for us as humans or there's a trend or there's something that happens out there in the future, millions of years down the road.

[Amy]

So here's.

[Dale Jr]

So there's this long Runway, right, of technology and long run way of studying and developing and learning and processing. And there has to be there. I would assume the chances are really high that the discovery of how time travel could work happens in the. In the span of the human race. Right. And it's in its entire existence on this planet. And so I would have moved. I would imagine that it's likely we eventually colonize another planet or. Right? I mean, why wouldn't we? Why? And certainly their technology will be developed to do such a thing. It sounds crazy.

[Amy]

It sounds like you've been watching too many YouTube videos.

[Dale Jr]

I just have open mind and I have a. I'm the kind of person that believes everyone is good, right? Until you prove otherwise. I'm not guard. I don't walk around guarded going, well, everyone I meet might be an ass. I walk around going, everyone I meet is a really good person unless they prove otherwise. Give me some hard evidence that you're a jerk. And so I think about life and technology and discovery the same way. Why wouldn't it happen? Certainly it might happen.

Things. I'm like, well, what's it doing on the outside? It's not touching your skin. Also, there's so many other options, like heart rate tracking, like watches, bands, whatever. That don't look like a woman's.

[Dale Jr]

Bra.

[Amy]

Yeah. It's a two strap scoop neck.

[Dale Jr]

Situation.

[Narrator/Advertiser]

Yeah. And.

[Dale Jr]

They. They're.

[Amy]

Just. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's.

[Dale Jr]

Odd. I wouldn't choose.

[Amy]

That. And it seems like an odd.

[Dale Jr]

Choice, but it seems like they're all choosing it. Somebody.

[Amy]

Bought. Somebody's getting paid to choose.

[Dale Jr]

It. Yeah, maybe. Yeah, somebody. It's kind of like, what were those golden things that, like, Jerry Rice was.

[Amy]

Pitching? The copper.

[Dale Jr]

Bracelets. Copperware. Like the sleeves. Yeah. Copper fit. It's like the new it. New.

[Narrator/Advertiser]

Trend.

[Dale Jr]

Right. That's when I see people with compression socks. I don't know. They're up to, like, their.

[Amy]

Knees. Those compression.

[Narrator/Advertiser]

Socks. Yeah. I don't get.

[Dale Jr]

That. Don't understand what. What that is. I don't.

[Amy]

Know. It feels like a lot yeah, it's.

[Dale Jr]

A.

[Amy]

It's. I don't.

[Dale Jr]

Know. Sometimes when I drink a lot, I need some compression.

[Amy]

Socks. Yeah, totally. We should wear compression socks around the.

[Dale Jr]

Keys.

[Amy]

Yeah. Yeah. So we're in the plane, and Connor's trying to explain this whole thing to us, and none of us are really figuring out, like, how to buy into it, but Connor. Connor had a. Yeah, he had another fun tidbit about the Red Bull hat and Dale. It's like the elusive, ungettable get now, because you have to be a Red Bull.

[Dale Jr]

Driver.

[Amy]

Athlete. Athlete, period. You have to be a Red Bull athlete. Sorry, not driver. To receive a hat with a Red Bull logo on it. And you're, like, crowned with your hat. So we get up to the Red Bull suite at the track, and there's a guy, a streamer gamer. Yeah. So he's not. He doesn't speak English very well, but he is, like, mega excited. And we just, like, stumbled upon him getting crowned with his hat, and they gave him a jacket and the whole thing. So we got to watch him get super excited about him. We're like, connor, what is happening here? He's like, oh, well, he's a Red Bull athlete. So they just gave him his hat. And.

[Dale Jr]

Dalen. Connor has a Red Bull hat, and that's the hat he wears. It's already starting to get a little dirty on the brim. That's his Red Bull athlete.

[Amy]

Hat. And that's how you can tell, too, when you're in an environment like that, who they all are. So it's very cool. It's such a simple thing, but it really rubs Dale's, well, ego, because I've heard about.

[Dale Jr]

This. This is something. I mean, I've heard about the athletes getting the hats, but they. They were like, hey, man, you and Connor Zillich are going to do a little content about the Red Bull soapbox race. So I host with Mike Bagley on Discovery this Red Bull soapbox race, and it's out now. You can go stream it on Discovery, and basically, it's. It's hilarious and a lot of fun to watch, if you want to check it.

[Narrator/Advertiser]

Out.

[Dale Jr]

But. So I've been doing a little bit of work. Red Bull's been fun. They're a great iconic brand. I'm loving. I love. I'm loving they're back in nascar. Yeah. And because I want them to succeed, but we had this little content grab on my property in my gas station that I have on my property where we shoot a lot of stuff, and we're Sitting there and I walk in and I'm like, I had some other hat on like this. And I was like, do y' all need me to change hats? I'll put on a Red Bull hat. I don't care. Connor goes, oh, you can't wear a Red Bull hat. You're not a Red Bull athlete. And I was like, who the.

[Amy]

Are you, you know, telling me.

[Dale Jr]

What. I can't tell me what. I'm aware my own property. I was like, who? The 18 year old kid going snap back at me about what I'm.

[Amy]

Wearing. And this sweet kid is literally just like trying to tell him what the rules are. Like, oh, no, don't you know, because it's important to.

[Dale Jr]

Him. I'm like, I should have snatched Dale's feathers. I so mad. But he. I was like, I, yeah, I get it, man. You know, I kind of knew about this phenomenon. I'm like, yeah, no problem.

[Amy]

And. But all the while he's like, every Red Bull that he sees, he's like, I see.

[Dale Jr]

Him. I know they. But it was cool, you know, to. It is a big deal to those athletes. It is a big deal to those guys that become part of that brand or part of that team. And to watch this guy sort of get his.

[Amy]

Crown.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. And he got it from.

[Amy]

Max. Yes, he got it from.

[Dale Jr]

Max. Like Max Verstappen, big deal. Top of the chain in terms of Red Bull athletes. Right? Wouldn't you say? And. And this guy, this gamer, I guess he has like millions of followers on his stream. On his 150 million followers. Crazy.

[Amy]

Wow.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. It was cool to see. He was like his. There were some of his friends with him and they were so happy for him. Like, it was this really big.

[Amy]

Moment.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. In this guy's.

[Amy]

Life.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah.

[Amy]

But. And then we kept teasing Connor after that. I'm like, okay, well, who's that guy? Who's that guy? And I was quizzing him. He's like, I don't know. I'm like, you should know your people. Thursday mornings is cleaning day at our house. We have a cleaning crew that comes in and helps us keep the house clean. And they usually start upstairs in our bathroom. And so, you know, it's hard to get ready when that's happening. So Dale darts up there and gets ready and then gets over here. But I had to get ready down in the guest bathroom, which was.

[Dale Jr]

Fine. The Elvis.

[Amy]

Room. The Elvis room. You know, so I'm. I'm trying to figure out how to get back upstairs. I didn't take My extra clothes down there. So I've got a tiny towel. Those towels are not very big. A tiny towel, my dirty clothes, my toiletry bag, and Junebug, who never leaves me out of.

[Dale Jr]

Sight. Leaves your side.

[Amy]

Yep. I've got all this trying to keep this towel on and get back up the stairs. Well, the stairs are wet because they've been mopped. And I'm like.

[Dale Jr]

Well, what are you.

[Amy]

Doing? I go around back to the elevator and try to get an elevator. Well, the doors open upstairs because somebody left it open. They took us down to 3.

[Dale Jr]

O' clock in the morning.

[Amy]

Yeah. So I can't get up the elevator either. I'm like a sitting duck in the middle of the house half naked. So, like, I'm frustrated and flustered. I. I ended up getting upstairs. I just went up the wet. The wet stairs and I got ready, dried my hair. Like, there's literally, like, ladies around me in the bathroom with me as I'm getting ready. And then I get downstairs and I'm sneaking out the door before June Bug can dart out and get my feet. Well, guess what's going on in the. In the garage. Your.

[Dale Jr]

Roomba.

[Amy]

Yes. Which he has allocated. Mr. Mom, is in the garage running about. Does anybody else have a Roomba in the garage? It's not normal, so I don't want to do.

[Dale Jr]

That. Did you back over.

[Amy]

It? Well, I wanted to. Hopefully it was really pissing me.

[Dale Jr]

Off. Hopefully you didn't run over Mr. Mom on the way.

[Amy]

Out. It used to be in the house and it woke everybody up in the middle of the.

[Dale Jr]

Night. Was that a great movie? Mr. Mom? Y' all remember that movie from back in the day, Mr. Mom. That's why I named our Roomba Mr.

[Amy]

Mom. Mr.

[Dale Jr]

Mom.

[Amy]

Yeah. So Mr. Mom is all over the place in the garage. Well, coincidentally, it's right in between my tires when I need to get out of the house and I'm running a little bit behind. And so I wait. I'm like watching that thing go back and forth, trying to figure out if it's going to go under my car or go away from my car. Well, the thing is about to go under my car, so I just moved it over. Well, it just turned and went straight under my car. And I'm like. And so I turned it around and then got in my car real quick. Well, I had hit the button to open the garage door and the gate at the same.

[Dale Jr]

Time. The room.

[Amy]

Escaped. I'm Luke. No.

[Dale Jr]

Mr. Mom. He's.

[Amy]

Out. I'm looking at the Monitor in my car to make sure I don't run over.

[Dale Jr]

Mr.

[Amy]

Mom. And I ran into the garage.

[Dale Jr]

Door. Oh.

[Amy]

No. Yeah, yeah. Ran into the garage door. So, of course I'm bad. Went back down. It went back up and again. So it's.

[Dale Jr]

It's. It's still.

[Amy]

Working. It's working. But it's gonna need your.

[Dale Jr]

Attention.

[Amy]

Okay. And I don't have a Damn clue where Mr. Mom ended up. So.

[Dale Jr]

Sorry. What a.

[Amy]

Day.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. Sorry.

[Amy]

Honey. Here I am. Yeah, here we are. We're having a good.

[Dale Jr]

Time. Yep. That's.

[Amy]

Right. Anybody else run into the garage door lately? It's not just me. I know. It's not just me that ran into the garage.

[Dale Jr]

Door.

[Amy]

Nope. I know you haven't. I've never done that.

[Dale Jr]

Before. I've backed into our garage door. My truck. Yeah. You know, you. You'll.

[Amy]

You'll. Why do men get to get away with stuff like that without getting scolded, but women.

[Dale Jr]

Don'T. Well, I'm. Who's gonna. I'm gonna scold.

[Amy]

Myself. Like, you're acting like I'm. Well, you didn't even tell me, though. Like, you didn't say.

[Dale Jr]

Anything. Well, I.

[Amy]

Mean. Fix.

[Dale Jr]

It.

[Amy]

Yeah. Is that the.

[Dale Jr]

Reason?

[Amy]

What? That you don't. We don't even talk about it because you're going to be the one to fix it anyway.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. I mean, it just bumped into it. I didn't.

[Amy]

Like. I hit it pretty.

[Dale Jr]

Hard. Okay.

[Amy]

Gosh. The car is fine. Everything's.

[Dale Jr]

Fine. Yeah, we'll work on it. I know. We just got those.

[Amy]

Re. I.

[Dale Jr]

Know. Are we gonna have to refinish them.

[Amy]

Again? No, no. You just need a dent. Get her outer and bang it.

[Dale Jr]

Around. A dent. Get her outer. There's a dent in the garage door. They're made of wood. Is it cracked? Pop. Broken? Oh, my gosh. I need to.

[Amy]

Know. Don't you have enough.

[Dale Jr]

Time? Don't.

[Amy]

Y'.

[Dale Jr]

All. Don't you.

[Amy]

Guys. All I'm gonna say is one wheel isn't in the track, and there might be a little wood out of.

[Dale Jr]

Place. I can fix the wheel in the track. The wood. I'm not a.

[Amy]

Carpenter. Well, you gotta start there to get the.

[Dale Jr]

Thing. I'll figure it out. Don't you guys, when your wife's telling you, like, something that she damaged, you're like, well, okay, explain the damage. And they just really can't explain the damage. And you're like, I need to have that. I got to have this image in my.

[Amy]

Head. It's not as bad it feels.

[Dale Jr]

So. I know what I'm up against, you know?

[Amy]

Yeah. Well, what you say, listen, it's fine, you.

[Dale Jr]

Know. Oh, it's.

[Amy]

Fine. It's fine. We're all.

[Dale Jr]

Fine. I've got a physical coming in next week, and so I'm talking to my doctor in this patient portal on my.

[Amy]

Phone. I think that's so.

[Dale Jr]

Weird. It is. I used to have my doctor's number and would call him, talk to him. Hey, man.

[Amy]

Yeah. Do I need to worry about.

[Dale Jr]

This? Is this like a normal.

[Amy]

Conversation? Totally.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. He retired. New guy comes in, they get bought or they're. They're part of something. Some, you know, a big system. Big system, yeah. So you can't call the guy. You. He sends you notes in the.

[Amy]

Portal, and you get your blood work results through the portal, too, so you can see him before you even talk to your doctor about.

[Dale Jr]

It. I've talked about this. I'll go get my blood work or anything. Right? And you'll get the test results before the doctor. You know, you get the test results and you go looking at it, and you're like, oh, okay, that's out of range. What does that mean? You know, and you're googling and it scares.

[Amy]

You. Good chance to spiral before you actually talk to.

[Dale Jr]

Anybody. And you're like, oh, dude, talk to my doctor. And you can't, but he will send you notes. So, like, I got my test results. Three days later, he sends the note, hey, man, you know, this is good. Everything's good. This is good. This is good. You know, we'll. We'll talk about this. Probably fix this. Work on this. And I'm like, yeah, okay, good. And I was like. I was like, well, that one thing's elevated because. So apparently you're not supposed to before blood work, you're supposed to just, like, drink a ton of water for, like, a long time. So you don't get dehydrated results. You don't have sex 72 hours before. Or so you can't eat for 12 hours before your blood work. You probably shouldn't, you know, you probably should eat really smart for about three, you know, two or three weeks. So your results are relatively all flat and level. Like, you wouldn't want to eat about, you know, three fried chickens two days before you go in there. Right? So, you know. Well, we didn't adhere to the sex part. Yeah, right. So one. This one thing was elevated, and I was like, hey, in the portal, he's talking to me, and I'm responding in text as well, and I'm like, yeah, well, that one thing might be high because I did have sex, you know, within 36 hours of the test. I'm thinking I'm having a conversation with my doctor, and all of a sudden.

[Amy]

This. And already talking about literally intimate.

[Dale Jr]

Things. Yes. Intimate things. And then another person replies, I guess like his assistant or lady. She goes, y' all can talk about this when you come for the visit. And I was like, what? Someone else is here? Yes. Who are you? Yes, who are you? I mean, I thought this was a conversation with my.

[Amy]

Doctor. And it was. And he was responding back. He was. And he asked you all these.

[Dale Jr]

Questions. He.

[Amy]

Did. Responded. And she's like, not. Not today.

[Dale Jr]

Junior. Y' all can talk about this. I was like, oh, my God, I have been feeling terrible about that.

[Amy]

Since. Well, she should feel terrible for.

[Dale Jr]

Interrupting. I'm so.

[Amy]

Embarrassed. It's. It's a weird thing. The portal's weird. But that. That takes it to a whole new level. It felt like it was like this private lockdown conversation. All of a sudden, there's a new.

[Dale Jr]

Person. We're talking about. We're talking about blood work. We're talking about, you know, personal details around all of that information and data. That.

[Amy]

Alone.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. Felt like it should just be a me and him.

[Amy]

Conversation.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. And he is asking me stuff and talking to me in this. In.

[Amy]

This. It's like a text thread portal. Yeah.

[Dale Jr]

And. And I'll. And I was like, oh, all right. You know, Well, I did. I did. I did do. I did have sex. So maybe that's why we got that reading or whatever. Nope. More people were in.

[Amy]

There. Yeah. And it was a female, too. That's the other thing that made you.

[Dale Jr]

Feel. I can't wait to go. I can't wait to go to my physical and have a conversation about this, because I'm.

[Amy]

Gonna. I can't believe you didn't write back in there. Like, who the hell are.

[Dale Jr]

You? Well, I might. I still.

[Amy]

Can. Yeah, you should. I.

[Narrator/Advertiser]

Would.

[Dale Jr]

Shoot. I'm gonna go and I'm gonna open it up and say, hey, man, who is this lady? Yeah, I see.

[Amy]

Her.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. Where is she? Where is she at? Is she in the.

[Amy]

Building? Do we know.

[Dale Jr]

This? And why is this not a one on one conversation? And when can I have that? Because that's what I need. Right. With my doctor. Especially at my age. As you get.

[Amy]

Older. Oh, yeah, we're not doing all.

[Dale Jr]

This. We're going to be doing all kinds.

[Amy]

Of. You know, I always used to think, like, no, way. I'm going to be that way when I get older. I'm just going to adapt and go with the flow with all the things. It is just something you're not willing to do. It's not that you're not capable. You just don't want to. Yeah, like I don't want to do this portal thing. I want to talk to someone I.

[Dale Jr]

Know. Yeah, well, you know, I had a, our, our old doctor, incredible guy, you know, saw him forever and we had a relationship. This, this new guy. Maybe it's going to take a while. I have his number, I text him, but maybe he's changed his number. I'm gonna ask him when I'm at the physical. I'm gonna say, hey, can me and you, Can I just talk to you? You know, I mean, I know he probably can't do that with every patient, but I don't know. I don't.

[Amy]

Know. What's the difference between that and then doing it in the.

[Dale Jr]

Portal?

[Amy]

Right. Yeah, same. Same.

[Dale Jr]

Process. Because I certainly don't need. I don't want. I don't want to have a conversation in Sandra come. But.

[Dale Jr]

Night. So there was one.

[Amy]

Dinner.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. And this was, this was a dinner that the Amazon higher ups put together. So it's going to be one of those deals where you show up and there's a table of 15 or 20. It's going to be a long thing. And what, you know me, I like to sit down, order, get to check and get up and leave before anyone else has even got their, you know. Yeah, finish their, their plate. I'm ready to go. But you know, it's, we're going to go to this dinner. So everybody's in the cars and we're riding over to this restaurant and we get to the curb and we get out and we go in the door. And in the door, it's the boutique that you used to work.

[Amy]

At. It's like.

[Dale Jr]

Lavender.

[Amy]

Lavender. So it's a small, just for women's.

[Dale Jr]

Clothing. It was a small clothing boutique. We walked into the door and there were, there was like swimsuit rack, blouses, hats, blouses. There was a, it was a group in the corner putting makeup on some girl, you know, they're just doing makeup in the corner. There was a cash register and a, and a clerk or you know, just ready to retail you.

[Amy]

Up. And did the girl look like she was being dressed and all? Like she was a.

[Dale Jr]

Model. They were just doing her makeup. I couldn't really see, like it wasn't facing me, but I could just tell someone's getting their makeup done over in the.

[Amy]

Corner.

[Dale Jr]

Okay. Across from. And it's a boutique. It's.

[Amy]

Clothing. Well, so that doesn't usually happen in A clothing boutique. So that's already, like, one weird thing happening in the.

[Dale Jr]

Store. Across from the desk where the cash register is on this wall, it's a glass booth exactly like this where these guys are sitting. It's a glass booth. And in that glass booth is meat. Hanging meat. Dried.

[Amy]

Meat. Like a.

[Dale Jr]

Refrigerator. Big old dehydrator thing. Big, giant pieces of meat where you might cut off a T bone or slice off a.

[Amy]

Steak. So it's like a.

[Dale Jr]

Curing. Dried, aged. Yeah. And they were in. They were in their own little cases in there, and they were hanging. Just hanging. So it's like. It was like, clothing boutique.

[Amy]

Meet. So weird. Yeah, Clothing boutique. Makeup girl.

[Dale Jr]

Meat. Yes. And I'm like, all right. And I have no clue. Like, there's nothing telling me, go this way to the. To the restaurant. There's.

[Amy]

Nothing. So you're just wandering.

[Dale Jr]

Aimlessly. We're just standing in.

[Amy]

There. And all the weird.

[Dale Jr]

Things. There's like 10 of us, 15 of us, like, shuffling five feet into this place. Nobody wants to go too.

[Amy]

Far. But the girls didn't say, hey, restaurants.

[Dale Jr]

That. No one's saying.

[Amy]

Anything. That's so.

[Dale Jr]

Weird. And I'm like, I don't really know where to go to get to where food Steakhouse is or whatever this is.

[Amy]

Right. Maybe they were hoping you'd buy.

[Dale Jr]

Some. So I'm standing there. Finally, somebody's like, hey, man. We're. We're supposed to go to the elevator. So we walk through the. Through the store and around the corner, and there's an elevator. And we hopped on this elevator, and it goes up, and it opens up, and. Awesome. Nice steakhouse. I sent you a picture of.

[Amy]

It. Yeah, you.

[Dale Jr]

Did. Looked awesome. Looked like a steakhouse supposed to look. Right. So now I'm like, okay, now we're out of.

[Amy]

That. We're kind of making a little bit more.

[Dale Jr]

Sense. Yeah. That was a weird.

[Amy]

Entry. The meat downstairs still is kind of.

[Dale Jr]

Baffling. I know. Yeah. But so we sit down, and it's a big table. A lot of people. We had David Chang, Chef David Chang sit with us, which was cool. He was the only. Only. He was like, the surprise, I guess. So we're sitting there, and we order our food, and this was interesting. So we're sitting there with David, and David wanted to order for.

[Amy]

Us.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. But what happened? He didn't get the chance to do that. And he goes, y'. All. You know, I usually would. I would. I would suggest in the future, if you go to a restaurant and they're like, hey, do y' all want us just kind of bring it to you? Don't do that. He says they'll, they'll bring to you what they can't get rid.

[Amy]

Of. Oh.

[Dale Jr]

Gross. Not that it's old and bad. He's just like, they're going to bring to you the least, the less, the least sort of ordered items, which.

[Amy]

Is the less desirable.

[Dale Jr]

Stuff. Yeah, but I mean they brought, they brought steaks, filet, salmon. Filet. Salmon, Salmon. Yeah, a little salmon. Five, six, eight ounce salmon pieces. They brought a couple of things. It wasn't bad. It was, I mean it was just, it was okay. The steaks were super rare. Really rare. The salmon was super.

[Amy]

Rare. Woof. No.

[Dale Jr]

Thanks. Super rare. So, you know, we kind of nibbled on this stuff but we're like, we got our drinks that's pretty early and all of a sudden the music gets super loud. We got a speaker right here and it's like, holy.

[Amy]

Crap. Too loud for.

[Dale Jr]

You. Nobody can talk. You can't hear a person next to.

[Amy]

You.

[Dale Jr]

Wow. Turn around and there's 20, 20 or 25, probably under a, under 25 year old girls. They're 20 to 22, maybe younger. And they're modeling the clothes from.

[Amy]

Downstairs. So the chicken or makeup done was, was a.

[Dale Jr]

Model. Yep. That's why the girls getting the makeup done. So they're coming, they just walk through, turn around and walk out. The music just plays really loud and they're all, you know, they're just wearing clothes. No, nothing. It's not like they're in a costume or an outfit or there's a.

[Amy]

Theme.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. And they just walk through and walk out and it stops and go. Everything goes back to normal. And then so we go back to chatting and talking and I thought, okay, that's, that was just like a little thing. I guess it.

[Amy]

Happens. So the music comes on, but there's no mc like hey.

[Dale Jr]

Guys. Well, I mean they might have said, I wouldn't have.

[Amy]

Understood. I know, but you would have heard of.

[Dale Jr]

It. Yeah. No, I didn't hear that. The next thing five, 10 minutes later, there's a guy that starts playing guitar. And it's, it's great. Sounds awesome. He is dressed up like he is. He's dressed up like he is a megastar. He's got on like, he's got on whole outfit very loose, like silk. No.

[Amy]

No. Does he wear a.

[Dale Jr]

Cake? No, no, no, no. So you know how do you know how. Who sings Yankee Breaky.

[Amy]

Heart? Oh, Billy.

[Dale Jr]

Ray. You know how Billy Ray looks.

[Amy]

Now.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. Right. And he's.

[Amy]

So. He's bejeweled. He's.

[Dale Jr]

Like.

[Amy]

Yes. His hair's got a lot of stuff in it, even though it looks.

[Dale Jr]

Like he's looking like Billy Ray Cyrus. And he's got on dark glasses. It's nine o' clock or eight o' clock at night, you know, and he is playing this guitar and he's like hanging off the edge of his stool and he's moving, you know, and he's grooving. But he played for literally 45 seconds, a minute and a half tops. Not even a full.

[Amy]

Song.

[Dale Jr]

What? Yes. And then he stopped and then he.

[Amy]

Left. Was he singing or just playing the.

[Dale Jr]

Guitar? Just sing. Just playing the guitar. But he was like. It was loud and he was like. And then he just stops and I. And it ended just quickly as it started. And then it all went back to normal. And then five or 10 minutes later, the girls are back. They walking through all the new outfits. And this kept happening while the food's coming and while the thing's.

[Amy]

Coming. I would have been very overstimulated. It was like.

[Dale Jr]

Kinetic. And so. And yeah, and so I think it really wore Steve out because Latart, you know, we. We get done with the nibbling on our food and the dessert hadn't even been talked about yet. And that's definitely, probably coming. And he's like, I'm.

[Amy]

Ready. I'm ready to get.

[Dale Jr]

Out. I'm ready to.

[Amy]

Go. That's not like Steve either. He likes to sit and chit chat and like, he loves a leisurely.

[Dale Jr]

Dinner. And so the Amazon folks want this one girl in particular, Amy. She's awesome. She's like, hey, y' all can go ahead, you know. Well, don't worry about it. Y' all can go. And she's like, oh, I gotta go. I gotta get out here. And so he got up and we. We left a little, little early. They were there, apparently they were there quite a. Quite a bit longer. During this dinner, one of the coolest things happened, I guess. So Dave Chang sits down and I'm learning who he is.

[Amy]

Right?

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. And sitting between me and David Chang is Trevor Bain. Trevor Bain is the. The real star of the prime broadcast. I know everybody loves Carl and Corey and. And there's. Everybody's got a particular thing they love about it, but Trevor's like the secret sauce.

[Amy]

And. Tell me.

[Dale Jr]

More. Well, he. His delivery. He. He. When you say, hey, Trevor, man, you know, our producer will say, toss it down to Trevor. We'll be in the middle of the race, something's happening. And he'll go, trevor's got something to add. And you'll go, yeah. And that's a heck of a corner ran by that guy Trevor. And Trevor will go, yes, sir. And it started. Then he starts his, you know, his ad, and we. And so he got. He. He got razzed about that a little bit. Like, save the yes, sir for, like, one really good. He would do it every.

[Amy]

Time. So his manners are just too good for y', all is what you're trying to.

[Dale Jr]

Say. So happy to be.

[Amy]

There.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. And he tries. He wants to do a really good job, and he has, in just a very short period of time, turned into somebody who does a great job with his ads on. On pit road. He adds awesome information. Really does. And he's the sweetest.

[Amy]

Guy.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. Nice as can be. Just incredible. And so we're sitting there, and he goes, hey, David, did you know Dale Jr. Has his own beef.

[Amy]

Jerky? Oh, my God. That's how this started. I was just gonna ask you, like, I knew that you did this, but I didn't.

[Dale Jr]

Facilitate. Oh, really? And I was like, yeah, I just bought into this company, and I started spitting it out, spitting out as much information as I could as fast as I could. I was like, you know. Yeah. And his brother and Blake, you know, and I'm just, like, trying to tell him as fat, you know, before he loses interest really.

[Amy]

Quickly.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. And. And he. He was like, I'd love to try it. And I said, I got a bag. I'll bring it tomorrow. I. I'll just give it to you. You could just take it. And he's like, okay. And so the girl from Amazon, Amy, sitting right across me, she's like, I'm going to make sure this happens. And so the next day, she's like, hey, I'll bring him up to the booth. He comes up to the booth, and I'm. Got the bag, and I'm gonna give it to him. And he even says, let's make sure we film this. And so he tries the turkey. He's like, sweet, salty, proper.

[Narrator/Advertiser]

Chew.

[Dale Jr]

Really. You know, you gotta chew. You chew it, and you gotta chew it, and that gets the flavor coming out, and it's awesome. And he's just, like, doing his chef thing, right? Yeah. And. And I was.

[Amy]

Texting. Were you sitting there waiting for him to say anything negative, like a real.

[Dale Jr]

Critique? Like, I was just gonna.

[Amy]

Delete. You know, you could do this.

[Dale Jr]

Evidence. If he said anything bad, I was just gonna Go. All right, give me your.

[Amy]

Phone. I know, but I know who you are. Were you sitting there.

[Dale Jr]

Waiting? Yes, I.

[Amy]

Was. For him to go.

[Dale Jr]

No. Hell, no. This is the best jerky in the universe. And I knew when he ate it, he would go, this is the best I've ever had. And I was not worried the least bit that he was gonna dislike.

[Amy]

It.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. But I was wondering that it might be so good that he'd be afraid of overselling it. Like, he would be afraid of, like, being too unbelievable. Right. Too dramatic. Like, oh, my God, I feel.

[Amy]

Like he would have done that more if it was terrible. And like, hey, behind the.

[Dale Jr]

Scenes. Well, I know you could kick.

[Amy]

The salt up a little.

[Dale Jr]

Bit. I knew it was perfect. And I knew when he tasted it, we were on our way.

[Amy]

Yeah. So he loved.

[Dale Jr]

It. Yeah, he did. So we had a boat trip yesterday. We haven't. We've got the. She Said no. It's a. For those that don't know, she said no is a fiberglass hull houseboat, 2002 Gibson, and it is in really good shape. And so pretty cool interior, top deck, all that. And I was looking at this thing on the Internet. We were sitting on it yesterday on the lake, and I said, man, I cannot believe we're sitting on this boat after staring at it on the Internet for like six months. She goes, more like a.

[Amy]

Year. It was. It was at least a year. We had discussed it, I talked you out of it, and then all of a sudden, it's in the driveway. Lo and behold, it found you.

[Dale Jr]

Again. Yeah, it was weird how that happened. So I was just. I just. I'm a. I'm one of those kind of people that like to just look on car trader and just. Just. I'm not looking for anything. I'm just kind of curious as what's out there. And boat trader, rv, four wheeler, whatever, atv. I'm trying to see what everybody's got and selling and all that stuff and what things are worth. I do that with houses, Zillow, all that stuff. So I saw this. I missed my old houseboat and. But I didn't love it. I didn't love the interior of it, certain things about it, but I did miss having it. And we had a pontoon. Had a lot of fun with that. But, you know, I wanted to. Something to spend a night out on the boat, on the. On the lake and stuff. So I thought one day maybe I might get a boat that we could sleep in. So I started looking at all kinds of boats and different Things, and they're very expensive. But I saw this. I saw this Gibson and looked at the other Gibsons and saw the price and thought it was good. I showed Amy. And I'm looking at this thing and looking at this thing and looking at it. Every couple of days, I look at it, and I'm like, oh, man, that thing does look good. I wonder what it smells like, you know? I wonder. What is it? Does it smell okay? Does it smell.

[Amy]

Bad? So it didn't smell good. That's.

[Dale Jr]

That. Anyways, I'm good. The boat's out of my life. I actually went back on the Internet. It's gone. Must have.

[Amy]

Sold. My listing was.

[Dale Jr]

Gone. Somebody must have bought it, right? All right, that's probably better, you know, somebody else buy it. I'm glad it's disappeared. I didn't need that. I didn't need to do that. That's my. You know, it's okay. And months go by, and my niece Carson, says, hey, boat you're looking at. I talked about it on. On our podcast. She says, the guy that has that boat still has it for sale. I was like, man, you can't be talking about the same boat. I mean, of all the boats out there, how do you know? How did you. How did this guy get back to you? And I was like, send me a picture of Stan, boat you're talking about. And I'm expecting to get a photo and not be the boat and go, hey, it's not the boat. This guy don't know what he's talking about. Sure enough, sends a picture, and it's the picture. It's the boat. I'm like, all right, this is the universe. This is. This is fate. It's a sign. It's a sign. It's calling me. The boat needs to be in my life, and so the boat needs.

[Amy]

Me. The boat needs me to fix.

[Dale Jr]

It. So I made a long list. I made a long list of that. I needed to know about this boat. Does it stink? Does. Does this work? Does this work? Does this work? I don't want to buy a boat. I got to fix a couple certain things that were going to be really tough to.

[Amy]

Fix. Yeah, major.

[Dale Jr]

Things. Long list. So I send Sunny and a boat guy, a boat expert, marina guy, out to Gatlinburg to look at it. Sonny gets on it, sends me videos. He's on it. Dried riding on it tells me everything's fine. So we bought the boat and took a while to get it over here. It went to a ship. It went to a Marina and sit in the yard jacked up on stilts. And we worked on it and cleaned it and fixed a lot of things and put all new carpet in it. Got it ready. We furnished it and we called it. She said no, because Amy. Because this is a joke. Yeah. Yeah. And, yeah, until recently, I think Amy just finally. It finally clicked for Amy. I think in the last month or.

[Amy]

So. Yeah, I mean, I've been gonna enjoy the boat. It was fun. It was fun going out. Yesterday we decided we were just gonna take Wednesday since there was nothing on the calendar, and go hang out with no.

[Dale Jr]

Kids.

[Amy]

Awesome. They had.

[Dale Jr]

School. It was.

[Amy]

Great. And it was great. We sat there. It took me. Excuse me. It took me a solid four hours to, like, truly relax. I asked Dale, like, what time is it? Because I actually just stop thinking about all the things I have to do. And it took about four hours. Took him about an hour and a half. But we get on the boat and we get out of the slip, no problem. We cruise. Dale throws the anchors out, and then all of a sudden, the boat.

[Dale Jr]

Dies. Oh.

[Amy]

No. The generator goes out. I mean, he had cracked one beer, and we had just sat down upstairs, and he's like, there's no motor. There's nothing's going. The radio stopped. Everything stopped. And he's like, oh, crap. So he goes downstairs and I stay away just to not get in the business. And he's got the. The deck flap open, and he's looking around where the engines are and everything, the batteries, and he's tinkering and messing. And I feel like he's gonna figure it out at some point because he just is good at that. You know what I mean? I was not worried whatsoever. I was getting a little hot up there. I'm like, oh, crap. I hope he, like, gets it moving soon. And all of a sudden, I hear his pitch. Like, he's got Sonny on the phone and he's FaceTiming, just trying to work through it together. And I hear his voice get really high pitched. And I didn't hear what he said, but I knew it wasn't probably something nice. And so I, like, slowly slink down the stairs and get a little closer and, like, is there anything I can do to help you? And he's like, not unless you can fix a generator. I'm like, I'll just get my broomstick and go get my wand and I'll be right back. And I went back upstairs, stairs, and just sipped my wine. It was, you know, texted with Sunny and Katie. It was like, oh, gosh, this is bad. This is so bad. He's laying on his belly with his hand in there, just pushing buttons. Oh, he's red in the face.

[Dale Jr]

Because you got to get down in the engine compartment. We just ran the and things to get out in the.

[Amy]

Water. Yeah. And it's got, it's got a little water and sludge in the bottom. That's just part of it. It's just part of it. I'm like, oh no, he's going to have to get down in that.

[Dale Jr]

Apply. So Key west, we again, we used to go to Key west all the time. We did raise all kinds of hell down there. And you know, a day in Key west, in my head, everybody does it a little differently. But you get up in the morning, you get some food and you kind of cruise into a couple of beers around lunch or just a bit before lunch and you just kind of steadily hang and go from bar to bar and just enjoy music and whatever. And one, two in the morning you go to.

[Amy]

Bed. Two in the morning. Yeah, I went to bed at like nine o' clock every. Well, that's like with a nap in the.

[Dale Jr]

Middle. That was thinking back, I was.

[Amy]

Like, I need to get out of.

[Dale Jr]

Here. Yeah. Thinking back to like years ago, that's kind of the process, right? It was day after day after day of that. And obviously as we got older, we slowed down. And now when we go down there and try to try to at least I mean, because kind of the only Key west we know. So we Go down there. And that's what Tim and his wife like to do. They're kind of younger and they have a.

[Amy]

Route. So, like, they started one place and they have a circuit that they.

[Dale Jr]

Take. Yeah. And so we went down there and had fun, tried to hang out. It.

[Amy]

Worked. Yeah. So flying in was an adventure because. Are we not gonna talk about.

[Dale Jr]

That? What.

[Amy]

Happened?

[Dale Jr]

Well. Oh.

[Amy]

Yeah. Well, so we're flying in, and you go over the water. So for a while, you, like, you lose your wi fi. So you are forced to have to chat with your partner. So Dale and I are just sitting there, like, giggling, laughing, talking about what we're gonna do, excited about our trip, hoping Junebug's okay. Just talking about all the things, and we're getting ready to land, and, like, really close to landing. And I look over at Dale, and I was like, you know what? I didn't hear the landing gear go down. Did you hear the landing gear go down? And that's usually a noise that's pretty prevalent. Like, you don't miss it. And he goes, actually, I didn't. And so I start to scramble in my mind, like, just spiraling very quickly. I'm like, should you go tell him? And he's like, no, I ain't going to tell him. I'm like, well, all right. Giddy up. We're.

[Dale Jr]

Just. We.

[Amy]

Were. Of course the landing gear was down. It's just. We were chit chatting and didn't hear.

[Dale Jr]

It.

[Amy]

Yeah. So we had a great flight. And then all of a sudden, I, in my nervousness and I panicked and made Dale panic, you know, with.

[Dale Jr]

The. With the crash we had a couple years ago. We're kind of a little anxious about flying still. But the couple. We. Couple. A week ago, two weeks ago, I had the same feeling. We were landing, and I thought I didn't hear the landing gear because you hear it. And I was like, I didn't hear the landing gear. Well, I'm sure they got it down. I mean, of course, you know, of course they got it down and they had it down. I mean, I don't know. It's silly, but you can't help but have these, like, little thoughts, you know, every now and then. You're like, well, I didn't hear it. So now you're neurotic in general, but you're surely not going to go up to the cockpit as they're.

[Amy]

Descending.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. Literally. There's the Runway. Hey, guys. Landing gears down, right. That, you know, I mean, so.

[Amy]

I'm throwing my arms down like, white knuckle. And he goes and just straps himself in.

[Dale Jr]

Tighter. My belt tighter. That's what everybody, like TJ Always told. Tightening belts. So I just tighten the belts. Anytime I have any concern, I'll just tighten the.

[Amy]

Belt. He just tightens his.

[Dale Jr]

Seat. That'll do it. But there. Our pilots already know that we have, you know, we're oversensitive. Yeah. Level of anxiety. They know it. You know, we. We talk about it. We talk to them about it. We're pretty open about how we feel in terms of flying. And so, yeah, it was. It was funny. We landed. They landed. They landed the plane. And this is the best part. I feel so bad about this.

[Amy]

Because Dale is also nervous and spiraling, but he wasn't talking about it like I was, because I was. Stopped talking. So we get out of the plane, and I'm.

[Dale Jr]

Just. The pilot that landed the plane is Jeff. All right. Our. Our lead pilot, Joey, was at a wedding for his.

[Amy]

Family.

[Dale Jr]

Yes. And so we asked Jeff, our old pilot, who we love and trust 100%, who was. Who was with us when we had the crash at Bristol. We asked him to fly us to. To join Alex, our other pilot, to get this trip.

[Amy]

Done.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. So he's actually at the controls in the left seat, landing this.

[Amy]

Plane. And he's a phenomenal.

[Dale Jr]

Pilot. Would trust him with my life military experience. He's great. So he lands a plane, and we're just thrilled that we seem. We only see him like, once a year when he comes every once in a while. Flies our plane every now and.

[Amy]

Then.

[Dale Jr]

Right. When Joey needs him. He's always good to do us a favor. And so anyways, we get off the plane, and I'm. We're just having their nervous energy, Right. Not thinking about what's. What we're.

[Amy]

Saying. And Jeff is also very excited to see us. And he's like, gosh, it's so.

[Dale Jr]

Cool to see you guys. I don't.

[Amy]

Know. I haven't been to Key west in forever. And it was like. I said, everybody's just over talking.

[Dale Jr]

Right? Yeah. And I said, yeah, everybody's over talking, especially me. And I said, Jeff. I was like. We were. We thought for a second, we weren't sure. We heard the landing gear land. And I thought, man, we're gonna land this thing, slide off the end of the Runway. And that came out of my mouth to the guy who was on the plane with us when we slid off the end of the Runway in.

[Amy]

Bristol. And I was like, huh. Really, really random. Just like, come on, man. You know, it's.

[Dale Jr]

Okay. Just like, oh.

[Amy]

Man. No, I.

[Dale Jr]

Know. And I'm thinking.

[Amy]

Ban. Why is that? What I wanted to say right.

[Dale Jr]

Now was I thinking to say that to this guy? And so. But we love Jeff. And. And. And I'm sure he's like, yeah.

[Amy]

Whatever. Yeah. He knows how awkward and silly we can.

[Dale Jr]

Be. But, yeah, that was. That's one of them times when you say something, you're like, as soon as you came out, that wasn't funny at.

[Amy]

All.

[Dale Jr]

No. So that's how we started the trip. We have talked about this on this show before.

[Amy]

And. Is this serious? You seem very, very.

[Dale Jr]

Formal. Trying to remember in my mind. My mind doesn't have all the information. Go get it. It's in there. In the.

[Amy]

Back file. Runner, run.

[Dale Jr]

Faster. Yes. I was watching 50 Cent talk about how he bought. He. He bought. He. They were like. They were like, man, what's one thing you regret? And he's like, buying Mike Tyson Benson's Mansion. And he's like, what? You. You. Why did you regret that? He's like, man, you ever look down a hallway and be like, yep, I don't even want to go down there. I don't know. I don't know what's going on down there. But it's just. I don't even. It's too far. It's.

[Amy]

Too. In his own.

[Dale Jr]

House. Yes. And that's what my brain's like. It's like, oh. It's like, I know it's back there, but that's a long ways to go. I'm just not. Just turn around and brain's just like, yeah, yeah, we've got that information, but we're not gonna find it.

[Amy]

Today. It's going to be.

[Dale Jr]

Withheld. Yeah. That's what's happening right at this.

[Amy]

Moment. Okay, so we're just gonna abort.

[Dale Jr]

Mission. Yeah. Okay. We might find.

[Amy]

It. It'll pop out of the room later, come down the hall on its own, and then chime.

[Dale Jr]

In.

[Amy]

Yeah. Golly. Fort.

[Dale Jr]

Forkdale. Yeah. Like your brain's a big, giant filing cabinet, right? Yeah. Or maybe a hall corridor with multiple rooms full of filing.

[Amy]

Cabinets. Now, I'm thinking of that movie, that Disney Pixar movie with all the emotions. Oh, without the.

[Dale Jr]

Ball. Oh, yes, yes.

[Amy]

Yes. And then they're filing things away.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. I. I bet we could ask Chat GTP to create the photo of what my brain looks like and con in. Compare, you know, in. With that. With those images with that movie in mind. Oh, man. I'm gonna Try that. I bet it can do.

[Amy]

It.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah.

[Amy]

Yeah. Do it while you're at the deer stand. I'll give you.

[Dale Jr]

Something. Yeah, I'm going hunting. So we were. I was going to talk about pickles. We. I'm trying to make this make sense because people are going to be.

[Amy]

Like, oh my gosh, we've talked about the pickles. It's Butler's orchard. And our.

[Dale Jr]

Friend. Butler's.

[Amy]

Orchard. Butler's orchard. The Butler family, and they're out of Germantown, Maryland. And so our friend down in South Carolina, who is our contractor, his sister in law, her family are the Butlers. And so he'll go up for Christmas or whatever and then go to the farm. And he always would bring us back pickles. And like he started out just bringing us a variety of this and that. And Dale fell in love with the pickles and he's talked about them, the garlic and all the stuff in them. Did you bring any, by the.

[Dale Jr]

Way? I forgot. So these. Listen, I've ate a lot of pickles in my life and I became a. I became a big fan of dill pickles through our Whataburger in Kannapolis, North Carolina. Dad would. We ordered Whataburger every day when we were at dad's shop. It was lunch for lunch and I would always get a side of pickles. And they came in this little paper cup and they were so pungent and so deal. And it was like, damn, I need this. I need this in my life every day. And so, you know, I haven't really found pickles that were that good. Whatever. Those sliced hamburger pickles. Pickles that our water bird, the North Carolina Waterburger chain uses. They're amazing. And so I've been a fan of dill pickles ever.

[Amy]

Since.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. He brings us these pickles and.

[Amy]

I'm, you know, I'll be honest, he's skeptical about all the things. I'm sure you're aware of that.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. Like somebody says, hey, try this, it's great. I'm like, yeah, wait, I'll be.

[Amy]

Sure it isn't, but I'll try it for.

[Dale Jr]

You. Yeah. And I've heard this.

[Amy]

Before. Yeah, right. And these just knocked a socks.

[Dale Jr]

Off. They are insane. They are.

[Amy]

There's. They.

[Dale Jr]

Are. They are.

[Amy]

Insane. There is no other pickle or juice that tastes like.

[Dale Jr]

This.

[Amy]

No. It is the most pungent vinegar pickle I've ever tasted. There's garlic, I think there's some onions. There's jalapenos in the jar. And so like Even the juice is like.

[Dale Jr]

Gold. After.

[Amy]

You. He gets done with the pickles. I use the juice for marinating chips or whatever. We'll leave the dirty martinis with.

[Dale Jr]

It. We'll leave the empty. Where else do you leave the empty jar of the pickle juice so that you can then drink.

[Amy]

That?

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. Over the course of time, like, I walk over and just take a little swig, like I'm drinking moonshine. It's like, this stuff is so.

[Amy]

Good. He's.

[Dale Jr]

Addicted. You're like, all right, we ain't got any pickles. But I know I can get the.

[Amy]

Sensation. I can get a hit.

[Dale Jr]

From. Get a little hit from this juice. And it's like, I almost like having a pickle until we get some more pickles, because you can't. They don't ship. And so we'll eat these pickles and then we're out. And then we're just talking about.

[Amy]

To go back to.

[Dale Jr]

Maryland. And then that's how good they are. They're that.

[Amy]

Good. Yeah. So he got down to. We were at the beach last week for fall break, and he gets down to his last jar, and then he asks me, because I leave. I leave. A day later, he takes the kids to Talladega, and I drive home. He's like, don't forget that jar of pickles. Well, guess what? I forgot the jar of pickles. And it's half open and it's in the fridge. So, yeah, I forgot the jar of pickles. And he gets to the house, and he's like, you forgot the pickles in you? I was like, yeah, I forgot the pickles. But also, Kobe's birthday is tomorrow, and the only thing he asked for were those pickles and some jerky.

[Dale Jr]

Boys.

[Amy]

Yes. And he said, well, we don't have any. I'm like, I know, but we've got this block of time on Wednesday, and we could just fly up to Maryland and go to the farm.

[Dale Jr]

Ourselves.

[Amy]

Yeah. And so that's what we did. We flew to Germantown, Maryland, to.

[Dale Jr]

Run pickles to the Butler Butler's.

[Amy]

Orchard.

[Dale Jr]

Yes. I felt like Elvis Presley, man, in the middle of the night. Elvis Presley. The stories that you hear, you don't know whether it's true or not. But, you know, they could be embellished. But Elvis would get his cronies.

[Amy]

And be like, let's go and Maya Crony.

[Dale Jr]

Now. Let's go. We're gonna go get that fried bacon sandwich that I love on the west coast, you know, he would fly hours in his plane to go Have a food dish that he was craving. Yes. Like, you know, just really.

[Amy]

Unnecessary. Yeah. If I find Elvis, I have a chef that's just gonna make that for.

[Dale Jr]

Me. Well, he also. He did. He had a Elvis at. One of Elvis's favorite meals was like, a half pound of bacon sandwich or something. Yeah. And he would do. He would do peanut butter and banana.

[Amy]

Fried.

[Dale Jr]

Yeah. Like, he would get a peanut butter banana sandwich and make.

[Amy]

It. And like, fried cheese, like, skillet.

[Dale Jr]

Fry. I don't know if it's skillet fried or dump it. Dump it fry. I don't.

[Amy]

Know. But my mind.

[Dale Jr]

Is. Everything this man ate is no wonder why he died on a toilet. But I'm just.

[Amy]

Saying. So we're gonna stick with.

[Dale Jr]

Him. He was trying, though, man. Hey, he just came from the racquetball court. I know all this. I'm a big Elvis friend. He was trying to get right.

[Amy]

Trying to work out, trying to get that bacon.

[Dale Jr]

Fat. He played little. He played a little racquetball, and then he sat down and played a song on a piano. And then he went to the bathroom, and that was.

[Amy]

That. Yeah. Well, we're gonna veer to the lift and stick with the vinegar and the.

[Dale Jr]

Pickles. Back to the pickle.

[Amy]

Story. So we got six cases of those pickles, and we got to shop around and buy jams, all kinds of amazing things that are.

[Dale Jr]

Local. We've never had more than one case, so, like, we got six more than we've ever.

[Amy]

Had. I got nervous. We got home, and the girls are out in the front, so I'm going to meet them. And Dale's putting the pickles away all on his own. And Dale likes to hoard the pickles. He likes them so much, he really doesn't want anybody else to eat them. So he'll keep them in the garage and bring one jar in at a time and, like, put it in the back of the pickle section of our refrigerator. And so generally speaking, unless there's just juice in there, I don't even see this jar of pickles. So I was worried about where he's gonna stick them. And he. He piled them up and. And let me be aware of where they are, so maybe I get to eat some.
