Amy Earnhardt and Dale Earnhardt Jr. are back for another episode of Bless Your ‘Hardt. On today’s show, Amy and Dale discuss what date is the appropriate date to have a “sleepover”, they recap their recent trip to Sonoma, and Dale found a snake in the garage…or did he? Plus, a fun #AskAmy segment where Amy answers if she’s ever peed in the pool on vacation, how early is too early to call someone in the morning, and which NASCAR driver would you let babysit your kids. We also have our drink of the week presented by High Rock Vodka, and much more!

Dale Earnhardt Jr welcomes in his father's championship-winning crew chief Doug Richert for a special edition of the Dale Jr Download. On the heels of the Becoming Earnhardt: 1980 series, the two dive into Dale Earnhardt's sophomore season & first Cup Championship. Doug was only 20 years old at the time, but he has plenty of stories to tell.

Doug's relationship with Dale Earnhardt went beyond the race track, as he shares stories of the two of them spending time waterskiing on the lake in between race weekends. The #2 team started the season swinging, winning the Busch Clash in Daytona. From there, the team won races at Atlanta & Bristol and were early contenders for the Winston Cup Championship.

In the middle of the season, Crew Chief Jake Elder leaves the team, suddenly putting Doug in charge. He talks about the abrupt transition to the Crew Chief role and what challenges he and the team faced. Dale and Doug discuss the #2 team's main opponents and how they weren't afraid to ruffle feathers along the way. Doug also shares the story of winning the championship at Ontario and why he got in trouble for taking an unauthorized victory lap in Dale's car. If you loved the newest season of Becoming Earnhardt, you're going to love this.

Dale Earnhardt and Cale Yarborough surely won’t be exchanging Christmas cards in 1980. The three-time champion has had quite enough of the overzealous sophomore from Kannapolis, but as the season comes to a close, he continues to stand in the way of crown number four for Cale and the Junior Johnson team. Dale and the Osterlund team are going to have a difficult day in Atlanta, and his late race effort to gain his lap back will bring his rivalry with Cale to its absolute breaking point. The two exchange blows in the media, and the points margin stands at 29 as they head to Ontario, California for the season finale.

Before making the trip out west, Dale is going to ink a sponsorship deal that he will become synonymous with for most of the 1980s: Wrangler Jeans. With a major brand behind him and his future secured in a five-year deal with Osterlund, the sophomore needs to go into the last race of the season and perform. Wouldn't you know it, Dale and Cale lock up the front row for the race at Ontario, and the dash for the 1980 championship is on. Will it be four-time championship glory for Cale, or can Dale Earnhardt become the first driver in NASCAR history to win a championship in his sophomore season after being crowned Rookie of the Year?

Dale & Amy Earnhardt are back in the studio this week for another episode of Bless Your 'Hardt! The two recap their 4th of July weekend in South Carolina, where they discuss the current state of their golf cart, the annual Independence Day parade, and how Dale gets the vacation blues when leaving to work the NASCAR race in Chicago. But first, Amy has a story about Isla and her "crush" at the pool.

After that, we play a new game called "Poetry For Neanderthals" - a game where you must only use one-syllable words to describe the key word you are trying to get your partner to guess. This leads to one of the funniest stories we've heard yet from our very own Dale Earnhardt Jr. - the curious case of a hamster's broken heart.

Last but not least, Ask Amy is full of fun questions this week, including:

• Where is the next vacation destination they would like to take the girls?
• Have they fallen for social media propaganda traps? (The answer is "yes, yes, they have.")
• Advice for going on a third date and how to make sure you don't get a fourth...
• Who said "I love you" first?
• The hypothetical battle we all need to know the winner of: Bluey vs. Paw Patrol
• How late is TOO late after July 4th to set off fireworks?

Dale Earnhardt Jr. sits down with one of the most polarizing figures in the NASCAR Cup garage, Carson Hocevar, on this week’s episode of the Dale Jr. Download. Carson has become known for his unique approach to Cup stardom, be it weird hats or streaming on iRacing during rain delays. He fills Dale in on what drives this approach, specifically how he managed to get an iRacing rig onto the Spire Motorsports hauler, and how he has even gone into the garage after hours to sim race. Dale and Carson discuss social media content and their respective styles of creation. Carson recently came into hot water for comments he made on a stream surrounding the NASCAR trip to Mexico City. The guys discuss Carson’s growth from the incident and how this is part of the process of growing up in the spotlight.

Carson talks about his path to the Cup Series, which began at home in Michigan in the quarter midget division. He explains that through help from former NASCAR driver Johnny Benson, he found his way into the late model world, and eventually landed a ride with Niece Motorsports in the Truck Series. Dale and Carson discuss his time at Spire Motorsports and how he seems to be helping the team elevate to the next level, as he has found himself running at the front this season in contention for wins. The interview also covers some of Carson’s on-track incidents, learning to rein in his aggression, and his social life amongst other race drivers

Dale Earnhardt has been leading the NASCAR Cup season points for most of 1980, but it hasn’t been smooth sailing. In fact, stock car legends Richard Petty, Bobby Allison, and Cale Yarborough have all been within striking distance at one point or another, but attrition has kept the field even. Engine failures, crashes, injuries, and team disharmony have plagued everyone in the Cup garage, and it appears the 1980 crown will come down to whoever can manage the chaos best. And thanks to Jake Elder’s untimely departure, Dale has to depend on a young, inexperienced, newly promoted Doug Richert to help keep things on track.

As the season wages on, the championship contest really comes down to two: Dale and Cale. The two can’t stop finding each other on track, and things are getting tense. This will be Dale’s first real taste at a Cup series rivalry, and neither driver is willing to back down. Dale is going to again pick up back-to-back wins, including a triumphant hometown victory in Charlotte, but a disastrous showing in Rockingham allows Cale to close in as the season winds to a close.
