Herm & Schrader

Kenny Wallace has hit the Door Bumper Clear trifecta! All three hosts have now sat across from Kenny Wallace, and this time it’s our own Freddie Kraft. Freddie went from Long Island to the top of the spotter stand in the highest form of NASCAR, and he almost took a different road. He turned down a sure-thing job on the railroad to chase racing, and his mom was not thrilled. Seventeen years later, he’s Bubba Wallace’s spotter and co-host of the podcast powerhouse DBC.
In this one, we’re hearing some more personal insight from one of the faces of Door Bumper Clear, including things like:
What Bubba Wallace is really like, from the guy who hears him on the radio every week
How DBC went from a spotter show to the place drivers ask to come on
Why Freddie is afraid to win the Daytona 500
NASCAR returning to the Chase
How to fix the Next Gen car

The bleep button was in full effect for this one.

This week on Herm & Schrader, we ask the big question: Is the Cup Series championship already decided? Has Kyle Larson locked up the title, or is there still room for drama heading into the season finale at Homestead?
Meanwhile, brake-checks became a major storyline at Martinsville. Were the incidents simply a product of hard racing, or should Austin Cindric have made sure Carson Hocevar left the speedway with a lesson learned?
Plus, Denny Hamlin appears headed toward yet another season without a championship. As he approaches the later stages of his career, should he consider hanging up the helmet after 2027, or does he still have more competitive years ahead of him?

Natalie Decker led laps at Daytona, at times got dragged for it online, and still hears she’s only here because of how she looks -- so Kenny Wallace sat her down to get the real version. Natalie walks Kenny through the whole Daytona night: the last-minute sponsor deal she swore she’d never take again, the restart where nobody wanted to work with her, a radio that stayed silent for a full lap while she ran up front, and why she pulled out of the lead when the guy behind her wouldn’t stop trying to get his lap back.
Then it gets personal. Natalie opens up about years of being told how to dress and act to get taken seriously , and why she’s done with it. She talks about what Danica Patrick’s example did for her, why Denny Hamlin is her guy, and the sports psychology lesson that changed how she handles pressure. She also shares that she was born with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, kept it a secret from her friends growing up, and cried through the hardest speech of her life at an Arthritis Foundation fundraiser before asking her husband for a martini.
Plus: how a go-kart, a babysitting cousin, and a “don’t tell your dad” turned a whole Wisconsin family into racers. Kenny tells the story of racing her at Marshfield when she was a teenager. And Natalie explains how she and her husband forgot to get the marriage license, so the legal wedding date and the party date aren’t the same, and why she’s still Natalie Decker.

Kenny Wallace and Ken Schrader are back together this week after a few weeks without Schrader and Talladega gave them plenty to debate. Kyle Larson went from 11th to the win off a three-wide draft, and the Cup points race just got a lot less tight. Herm and Schrader break down how it happened, why Larson now pretty much has to lose this championship, and what those wrecks looked like to guys who’ve been there.
Then the part everybody’s mad about. For a big chunk of the race the field rode around at half throttle to save fuel, until one team decided to go wide open and left everybody behind. How do you fix it? They have ideas – let’s see if NASCAR listens.
Then the double-yellow line debate. Was Larson was below it when he made the winning pass? Some fans want him sent to the back, and Kenny has a story about getting burned by that exact rule – ultimately both Herm and Schrader land at the same place with this debate.
Also in this one: why NASCAR is changing Phoenix’s front straightaway, Sammy Smith’s weekend sweep, a dirt racing roundup with Jimmy Owens and a $30,000 Cherokee win, and of course some jokes to end the show.

Kenny Wallace sits down with AJ Allmendinger, and AJ’s career path is wilder than you’d guess.
His parents mortgaged their house three times to keep him in go-karts. He qualified dead last at Bristol and called it the happiest moment of his life. He gave his prize money back just to keep a ride. Then he won the Rolex 24, a Cup race at Watkins Glen, and the Brickyard.
AJ opens up about crying in Victory Lane at the Roval, why he sits on the plane after a bad race convinced, he’s letting everybody down, and the checkered flag he almost handed away before stealing it back for his newborn son. He also explains why he drove Michael Shank’s Rolex car for free, and why he says he lives the best life in the world and is miserable every single day.
Kenny trades his own racing money horror stories, they talk Kyle Larson, and AJ gives his honest take on the Next Gen car and NASCAR’s tech inspection fines. Originally aired 10/18/23.
