LIVE
Hey everybody, I'm Dillon Hart Jr. and this is The Dirty 30, the best highlights from
all of our podcasts this week, 30 minutes every single Friday, The Dirty 30 coming
at you.
Let's get right to it.
This episode of The Dirty 30 is presented by Arby's new meat and three bucks.
Get more meal for your money at Arby's.
We have the meats.
Usually when the race is over, we all, everybody goes home, you know.
San Diego, a lot of people stayed out there for the, you know, couple, at least a day
or two and then drove or flew to Sonoma.
And so that's our plan.
So it was kind of cool going to the hotel and hanging out and seeing, seeing folks, your
peers and man, we had a lot of fun.
We drank a little bit, got up in the morning and drove to Santa Barbara.
And then we went from Santa Barbara up to Monterey.
We spent the night in Santa Barbara.
Then the next night we spent the night in Monterey, Monterey's badass little town.
Yeah, sounds like it.
It was Santa Barbara's great.
We get to Santa Barbara and Monterey, both towns.
We get on our phone, found the closest bar and like a block and a half from the hotel.
And we went to the, me and Stefan and LaTarte, his family, Adam Alexander.
We went and we went and had drinks and stuff and just hung out.
And that was pretty cool to be able to kind of sit in these little dive bars you'd never
have a beer in and drink.
And one of the bars in Monterey, we were sitting there and I noticed that they had this thing
on the back wall and it had all these little buildings on it.
And in the doorways of all the little buildings were these little miniature Jesuses.
And you ever seen things?
Oh yeah.
Yeah.
And so, you know, after about, I don't know, six or eight beers, I was like, man, you've
got those little miniature Jesuses all up in the buildings there.
And he's like, oh man, there's, there's a lot of them in here.
I was like, yeah, he's like, how many do you see?
I was like, well, I'll probably see about four up there.
He's like, there's a whole lot more in this room.
He's like, you got to take a look around.
And so all around the room, they had all these tiny little Jesuses hiding everywhere.
And I thought, that's hilarious.
And, you know, six or eight beers.
I'm like, you know, I'm going to Amazon.
I'm going to order me some tiny Jesuses.
So I brought them.
I just wondered what you brought in.
There's a box full of them.
Nice.
Look at that, man.
Are you just going to put them throughout Junior Motorsports?
I'm just going to hide them places.
There's already one in here.
Here, dude.
I've already got them.
Oh, you don't want one.
I've already got a bunch of them.
How could you say no to Jesus?
I've got a lot of them.
How could you say no to this little guy?
Oh, my God.
I've got a lot of them.
Can I have one?
Yeah, you can have one.
My mom gave me one of them.
I'll give you a handful.
My mom gave me one.
I'm just like, here, you need this.
Hey, I got an idea.
We could, we could hide them in Mike's office.
You need to put a whole bunch of them in there.
So you keep them, you walk around and you just put them places when people aren't looking.
So Steven's sitting next to me and he ordered a box, too.
And he just tried to bring them in here and give them to me.
I'm like, no, that's your box, man.
I thought you had trading cards.
He was bringing in.
That's what he had.
That's what he.
That's hilarious.
I like that's your box of miniature Jesuses.
I lined up my spare bed in my house for those things.
Did you?
My mom gave me one.
So I'm like, OK.
They've been around a while, huh?
So, yeah.
So I bought a box like you did and I put them in her room whenever she comes in.
There's like a hundred of them in there.
Things are awesome.
They are.
You put them all over the place.
Race cars for the race, for the race on Saturdays.
We drive, walk up and give one to each driver.
Yeah, yeah.
I have one in my backpack that somehow I got it.
Somebody gave it to me.
Well, I thought that was funny.
We drove up.
There's a name for this road.
What is it?
The PCH?
Yeah, there it is.
Why do they call it that?
Pacific Coast Highway.
OK, there you go.
All right, see, I'm not familiar.
The PCH.
So we drove up that thing, man.
It was a bad ass.
And if you go on Google or go on your phone and take a look at that road
or the pictures of it, you'll the pictures that you see, that's what it looks like.
It's bad ass.
The whole way up just on the on the edge of a mountain, probably hundreds,
maybe thousands of feet or hundreds of feet up from the coast.
But you can see, I mean, just the ocean.
See it as far as you can see.
And so that was a blast.
We stopped and ate at some little restaurant on the side of the road.
Man, it was just fun.
We were just normal for a few days, you know, no responsibilities, no job,
no, no work, no, no podcasting.
None of that.
We just kind of got to goof off before we move on.
Here's a quick look at Dirty Mo Media's newest show.
Hey, this is Jerome and Tiffany Davis.
Most people know me from the dirt eight seconds at a time.
So there's a lot more to laugh than the rides.
We've never really stopped to tell our story.
That changes June 24th.

Is there anything new to say about SVG winning this race?
He looked human or like less than suit.
He wasn't like Superman out there, I would say.
Yeah, I mean, I don't know.
I started within a row of him, which is fantastic, because I could kind of watch a little bit.
And it still looked rather impressive to me.
You know, was it the big gap over the field that we've seen at other tracks?
No.
But I think what the field is starting to figure out is his approaches to speed in certain corners.
I think that that's where he'll struggle to maintain the big advantage that he has over the field is that
when I watch him approach, you know, 11 corners at Sonoma, there's a few where it's like,
wow, I never thought to approach that corner that way.
And and so I think the field sees that and and eventually they close it.
You know, does his is his really acute awareness of what he needs out of his car,
his techniques and all that stuff, is that able to be replicated?
That's that's likely a tougher discussion.
But I do think the field can close.
And and if on a given day, like it seems like the you know, the Gibbs Gibbs cars
definitely were the next best cars or next best in speed to him.
Sure, you could you could beat him, but it, you know, you're you still got to put in the back of your mind that.
You know, the track house cars still have not been great this year.
So he's probably not driving the fastest car, but he's driving it the fastest, you know,
he's got the car fastest.
So, you know, so it maybe he gets that advantage back when his cars get a little bit faster.
So he makes you have to be perfect, though.
Yes, yes, because he's just not going to make that many mistakes.
You know, the the work, you know, this is crazy.
Say like the worst driving I've ever seen him do was actually when he was racing
Connor at Watkins Glen last year or not Watkins Glen Sonoma when they were racing
head to head like you would see SVG miss corners and you'd see him lock up tires.
And it was like, whoa, OK, he he doesn't run just every lap perfectly now.
But that was the first time that we saw him really have to need someone behind him to keep.
Yeah, you got to keep him honest, right?
So but that's just as long as he's got this little gap on the field that he's got,
he can he can run it at 95 percent and still, you know, keep keep his pace and distance.
So we made some predictions two weeks ago as to how many points above the cut line
he would be out of these two road course.
I think I said 60. He ain't 64.
I know he's not 64, Travis.
No, I'm just saying that.
Diego had he, by the way, take where he was running versus
where his position was at San Diego and he's like 70 up, but he's not.
Right. You know, this is that that's racing.
Wrong place, wrong time.
And, you know, so how do we feel about his is chance for the chase?
That's what I'm getting at.
It's got to be Jones Kozlowski.
Joey's 20th. I mean, holy cow.
I mean, AJ.
With colleague having no support or anything is ahead of Joey at Penske.
That's just wild to put wrap your head around.
But they just you could just see that they're there's just not much speed there.
And if you mix in a few bad finishes, you know, you get these wrecks and things that happen.
And especially where he's running, you're more prone to get in those things.
I think, man, can he avoid the 30th place finishes?
You know, he just has some weeks where it's like SVG is out to lunch and he's spinning
and spinning and crashing multiple times per race.
It's like, if you can avoid that over the next eight weeks, I think he can out.
I think he can hold that over a Cedric Jones Kozlowski because it's not like those guys
were having 50 point days, right?
I mean, what would you say you need to tell me?
Can you tell me the last has priests had a fifth?
Has any of those guys had a 50 point day?
I don't think without research and I'm going to say no. Right.
I'm going to like me neither.
Let's save ourselves the time.
I just don't think they have so.
He can bleed a little bit.
Would you be worried about like Eric Jones?
Who's of late has been racing really well?
Yeah. But I still think there's some chinks in that armor.
I think that.
Do they have the short track speed?
Like we're going to a few short tracks, too, right?
So their bigger track program has clearly gotten better.
But what about the other tracks?
And in this little stretch of eight races,
is there like one mile and a half?
We've got Chicago, Atlanta, North Wilkesboro,
Indy, Iowa, Richmond, New Hampshire, Daytona.
So where where legacy is seemed to take in the jump.
There's Chicago, Indy, right?
I think SVG, he's going to have to be tidy,
tidy with his weekends.
I mean, I think this just comes down to can he average
a 16th, 17th, 18th place finish for your own out.
And that seems like a challenge.
That that seems like an uphill battle.
Because again, like you said, one of those it depends on how you approach it.
Yeah, it depends on how you approach it.
Right? Do you want to be the guy that's going all out on kill on restart,
trying to get every spot?
Or are you are you willing to take the risk to do that to get a better finish?
Or and then maybe put yourself in a bad spot?
I don't know.
I truthfully don't know.
And I think it's going to be very close in this whole thing.
It's going to be very interesting to watch.
All right, don't forget about stopping by the online merch store.
We have some new stuff dropping called the zero to freedom line.
Check it out at shop.dirtymomedia.com.
A couple of those new shirts will be on there for you guys to enjoy.
I love to tell this story.
So I get this text from the Nate, the guy at Ram.
And he says, can you meet this guy?
Can you and Ty meet this guy Wednesday?
Yeah, sure.
He sends a picture of him.
I have no idea who he is.
Don't couldn't tell you anything.
I'm a racer.
I grew up in South Boston on a trailer house.
I don't know.
I don't know any of these people.
This guy lives on the same side as Ward.
Yes, I don't know if you're going to see his twang.
But I'll get it out in a minute.
The more and the more we get going, we're only in the first part of the show.
Shows up in his name is Craig Peligion.
He started Lionsgate.
You know what Lionsgate is?
Where they where they go?
You still have a game on the screen?
Yeah, I still had no idea.
They walk in and they have just like what you have here.
And they gave us this.
They said, hey, we need 15 race trucks.
We're going to take them to Las Vegas and we're going to do a reality TV show.
I looked at him and I go, no, you're not.
We don't have one.
And another thing, you can't test them.
And he's like, what?
And he literally sit there and this is a month and a half before the show started
and balled it up and threw it to the side.
And he says, what are we going to do?
Month and a half before the show thing and I cold sweat again.
And I'm like, oh, oh, Ty and I were sitting there.
I said, first thing is, let me text my mom.
I said, I need five race tracks.
Can you help me with this?
And we that day, we sit in there for two and a half hours and we looked at how we
would get the drivers to where we need to get them.
OK. And then we started working on it.
We'll go to South Boston.
We'll go to ACE. We'll do this. We'll do that.
I love dirt racing.
So we did it almost like the dirt weekend.
We seeded them just like they do it.
Heat races and then you gave them brackets and you let them race inside the brackets.
And we came up with the point system was the best thing ever because then,
you know, it's not cheating.
Yeah. The guy that wins the points wins it.
And what we taught them and what we learned is that it's teaching them life.
I had no idea they were going to take the cell phone from them.
I didn't know that part of it.
I didn't know the TV side of it.
I just knew that we needed to figure out that it didn't look cheesy and shady
and all of that stuff.
I didn't know that I was going to be a commentator.
That happened the first episode.
Like we were at a speedway and we're standing up and they said,
just comment about the guys, Craig Peligian, sitting behind us.
He says, well, don't y'all be commentators.
And I'm like, uh, oh, I've always wanted to do this,
but not on a reality TV show where we're judging the kids or young men.
And it, we came up with it.
Ty, myself, Matt, colleague was involved every single time.
15 days, 20 hours a day straight, right after the season was over.
When we got done, I actually caught the nor virus.
I was sick for three days.
I was down and out.
I had to have five IVs.
I was about, it was bad.
So, but it was a lot of fun.
It come from marketing.
It worked.
Uh, I think they told us two weeks ago, they have had over 30 million eyes.
Look at it, you know, views and stuff.
So it's actually worked.
Many Ty rail wanted, did a really good job.
Um, it was very dramatic at the end.
We gave $50,000 to the winner of the money race, which was huge for Carson Ferguson.
Um, and we've actually raced him.
We're going to end up racing him three times.
So yeah, I actually got more than that.
Jordan Bianchi, the athletic reports that dodge could move to the cup series as soon as 2027.
Who should we ask?
What's the tea?
What's the tea?
What's the tea?
Well, I'll tell you this, we would love to, um, we would love for dodge to do it,
but they have not committed to do it yet, but it's a lot of fun.
I appreciate everybody pushing dodge to do it.
I appreciate everybody talking about it.
We would love to have them here.
Yeah, absolutely.
Um, are we working hard towards it?
Absolutely.
But, but you didn't think we were going to sit still as colleague race and just doing nothing.
Look, let's just, are they coming?
Let's just not as of today.
Let's just throw it out there.
What is the biggest hurdle?
Everybody, yeah, it's like, right.
Everybody needs to understand this.
Not many people listen to it.
So we can talk about this.
So what is the hurdle?
You got a lot of, I looked at it yesterday when they asked me to be on.
Like, holy cow, you guys got a lot of listeners.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Some people claim that they are the number one podcast in NASCAR, but you know,
we can, we can argue with that.
Are you talking about Danny again?
No, no, no, no, no.
He's, he's way behind us.
Freddie's not on here.
So we're not talking about Danny.
Um, why?
Because people don't understand.
Well, you can just, what, what, what is the holdup?
Yeah.
So engines are a holdup in NASCAR.
You're supposed to have, you know, your engine in a car.
Well, when Dodge, the only reason Dodge left guys,
don't many people know this is they didn't have an engine.
If you think, if you remember back, Pinsky went to Ford.
Pinsky was building the engines.
They had no engine and nowhere to go.
They were done.
And then, you know, through, through the businesses, you know, I want,
I want to say this, Tim Koniscus is, is the man.
Like he's a guy that makes it happen.
He is the one.
Tim Koniscus is awesome for bringing Ram back to NASCAR.
You can do Ram because they're ill more engines.
They're spec engines.
You can do those in NASCAR and cup.
You have to have your own engine.
So engine is the biggest problem right now.
Are we working through it?
I actually had a call on hand.
You probably better see it on TV.
That was about engines when we were getting go.
That's what the vibration was like,
because I got to meet with them this afternoon.
So like engines are the problem.
Are they coming back to NASCAR?
I can tell you on this show right now,
Collegation, Matt Collick, Chris Rice,
everybody at Collegation would love to have them back.
Yes, immediately, fast as we can go.
Get them in the sport.
It would be great for the sport.
It would be great for Chevrolet.
It would be great for Ford.
It would be great for Toyota.
More people in here trying to sell cars would be great,
but the engine is the issue.
So, you know, it's been people reaching out.
I can do an engine.
Man, it ain't that easy.
It's not that easy.
And how you've handled your world since then.
What do you hope they're taking from all of this
and that you're giving them?
I would say the greatest thing that I hope
is for them to see that I don't have the strength by myself,
that it is an absolute foundation in faith
and trusting God through it.
I got to spend time with Samantha day or so after losing Kyle
and I told her, she's like, is it gonna get,
you know, what's it gonna be like?
And I'm like, it absolutely sucks.
It's awful and my heart broke so much.
But I said, your kids are gonna watch you
and you're gonna find strength.
You're not gonna have it on your own.
You have to have a relationship with the Lord.
You have to trust in Him because He's gonna sustain you
no matter how upset you are with Him right now.
And it's okay because we were made to have emotions.
But He's gonna walk with you through the darkest moments
which we're in right now and through the highest moments
and back to the dark moments.
And if you don't have that foundation,
you're gonna be lost, bitter,
you're gonna be empty and no one on earth can fulfill that.
And I think for my kids also understanding that, you know,
our home isn't here, you know, we're not meant to be here forever.
Our home is in heaven and knowing, you know,
it means so much more to me now.
I grew up a Christian family and knowing, you know,
growing up understanding grandma and grandpa in heaven.
But when you have someone you're beloved that is there,
I wanted to understand every part.
What is he seeing?
What is he under, you know, what's going on?
And it counts so much more.
And I think my kids have seen, you know, like this is a moment
that we're here, work hard, be relentless in everything you do,
show compassion to everyone, but this isn't forever.
So it counts what you're doing here now.
And I think that's what I want them to see.
I want them to see that, you know, it's funny,
people are like, it's okay, crying in front of your kids.
And I'm like, no, nobody wants your mom to cry in front of me.
They want to see strength.
And I remember those first few days of like waking up
and putting makeup on.
And finally my daughter's like, are you all right?
You know, because she's, you know, weekends,
I have no makeup, my hair is a mess.
And so, but I wanted, you know, just to be able to show up
and show them we're going to get through it.
And right now it's going to be hour by hour.
And then it's going to be day by day.
And then it's going to be week by week.
But and remembering, remembering Koi,
we tell funny stories all the time.
We want to be happy.
We don't want to be sad.
And we want to celebrate him and remember him.
So it's in everything.
I mean, he is kind of a, you know, once in a lifetime.
And so I think our kids, you know, so many times will be like,
okay, what would dad do?
And you know, Ty's like, dad's going to kill you.
You know, what are you thinking?
So I love seeing that in all of them.
Keeping that at the front of the center.
Yeah. That, you know, the, the faith is, is big.
I, you know, same thing growing up, went to church,
didn't really my, my grandparents and all that were,
some were already past and this, that and the other.
So I didn't have like that modeled, you know,
I just, our parents sent us to church.
It was the thing to do.
We were in church every Sunday,
even when they were on the road and all that.
And, and I'm kind of got, it didn't get away from my belief
in God and everything, but, but kind of got away from the
practice of every day, right?
You go to college, you do this and that.
Yeah.
And, and honestly, my mother's death in 2019,
I, it was just like, I mean, it just came as an aurora.
Like you have to give this up.
Like, and to, to have that peace about it.
Because you're right.
You, you will be bitter.
You will be angry.
You will have the regrets.
You will, you know, ask question why and all those things.
And that was the, that was the time for me whenever that really
resonated to just hand it over and, you know, have that faith that,
you know, I said earlier, God, God's wrote the story.
Yes.
We're living it.
Yeah.
And that, that belief helps you through worry.
It helps you through the unknowns and all of those things, you know, that we just,
you know, we can't, and it's hard.
It's hard for driven people.
It is.
To, you know, relinquish kind of that control.
It's so hard.
It is.
So hard.
So many times I'm like, God, it doesn't want my perspective or opinion.
I'm like, if we did it this way, I feel like it would be, you know, and, and.
We joked last night, we were talking about some decisions we were working on for Wyatt
and my husband goes, um, he goes, I'm just, I've got to let go of this.
I've got to turn it over to the God and he turned and he just made a little quip and he goes, God,
can you just please give me an answer about tonight?
That's exactly right.
Sometimes the timing doesn't work.
Oh, like, I don't think that's how it works.
It's, it's, it's, it's so true though, you know, I mean, I think, um, with all the kids,
with all my, you know, my, my boys, he's, Kase has just finished his freshman year,
went into the transfer portal, we've been praying about the right place.
So he just committed a college at Charleston, which I'm so excited to be close by, but it's,
it's a huge leap of faith and, and a, and a huge, you know, like there isn't Koi to be there to
walk us through and, and even though they lost, you know, their earthly father, they have a
heavenly father that cares about him more than even I care about them.
And it's hard to wrap your head around that.
Absolutely.
But I think our, our family kind of verse was that even L used it was, you know,
going back to Storia Shadrach, Meshach, and Bendigo and, and what they went through and,
and that we know no matter what, but if not, you know, it was the verse that God is with us,
whether, whether he answers it the way that we want to, whether the story comes out the way we
want. And we know with losing Koi, it absolutely wasn't the story we wanted. It wasn't what we want,
but, but we knew that God was with us and, and, and is, and continues to carry through, you know,
some days, some days are, are tough, you know, and, and my kids are like, sometimes we don't
act like Christians and they're like, it's okay, we're not perfect, but, but, but we know that,
that's our foundation and that's, that's the most important part.
But I wanted to talk about the road construction because the last week I was here,
I came down with the girls a couple weekends ago, um, I think over Father's Day weekend,
you were in San Diego. They're putting in a bunch of drainage. They're putting in drainage pipes,
so they've had the road torn up for a while. When it rains here, there's flooding all in
the road. Yeah, drain, drain, yeah. Your thumbs up thing. I didn't know what was happening.
I'm glad they're doing it. You're flailing. I was, I was confused on what the thumbs up was
about to do. Y'all had like a secret thing happening and I was lost. I don't know what Amy's
about to say, but I'm just saying I'm happy they're doing it. I am happy. I don't know what to do
with my hand. I am happy they're doing it too. It just takes a long, it takes a long time and
the timing of it isn't that great because it's 4th of July and it's going to be busy and the road
is still torn up. But more than that, the weekend we were here, so I've talked about before that
you can't pull into the driveway. So all the parking in front of the house is all we have and
it's public parking right there. So like the blocks are kind of funny around here. Some,
some roads have parking and some don't. So I was just having to bank on getting a spot in front
of the house or schlepping the kids down the street or finding a spot somewhere, which is
fine except that it's, you know, it's a lot more stress with little kids doing that. So
Can I say if you, if you're in one of the public spots and you move to do anything,
somebody is ready to take it. It's like somebody came out of the woods just waiting for you to
pull out. It won't last 10 seconds. It's hard. And we're right here next to the beach inlet too.
So, you know, there's a lot of people wanting to park here just for that reason. So since we can't
use our own driveway because the roads torn out and they won't let us, it's literally like a foot
drop off down into the belly of the, of the road. So we couldn't get in and out there. It's impossible.
She had to use some of the public parking. I did. So that's fine. It's right in front of the house.
But if you pull out and go eat or anything like that, it's going to be a challenge to get it back.
So I bought myself some cones. I ordered cones off of Amazon like a total Karen and was coning
off in front of the house willing to get a ticket because I didn't, I'm sure that's not allowed,
right? Like you're not supposed to put cones out in the public parking. And it worked pretty
seamlessly to be honest. I've had like cones for me, I had cones for my girlfriend. So it
combed off on honestly, I'll cross the whole front and it worked really well.
Except the last time we were pulling out to go to dinner,
Lisa's on the other side of the car trying to get the kids in the car seats. And I have pulled
out a little bit so that she could put the cones back out, right? So I'm not actually in the spot
anymore. I'm kind of hanging off in the road, but the barricades are in the road too. So I'm not
really, really messing up traffic. And anyway, so there's a guy coming through the stop sign and he
can't see that Lisa's on the other side of the car. He just sees that the suburban's kind of pulled
out in the road. And he decides to start honking at me, that horn thing, you know, that we talked
about how rude that is just honking for no reason. And we're at the beach people, we're not going
anywhere fast. So he honks. And instead of doing anything out the window to let him know, we're
like, hang on, we're coming out, I just get out of the car. And I walk straight up to his window.
I walked straight up to his window and he heard this story. No, I haven't told Dale about it.
I wasn't mad. But I was at the point of the day where we're putting the kids in the car for dinner,
it's hot. There's four children trying to get in the car seats. It's been a long day. I'm stressed
out. I'm in that weird fuzzy space between I'm having a good time and anything could set me off.
So I just get out of the car and I walk straight up to his window. And I just stand there until he
rolls his window down. He's in there with his wife. And he's like, I was like, Listen, we have little
kids are trying to get into the car. We're going to take a minute. Okay, you can see that I can't
just chill out. And he goes, you scared the shit out of me. I was like, you probably shouldn't be
honking then. Like, what are you doing? And so I got he rolls his window back up and I get back
in my car and I take my ever loving time getting out of there. Because he was waiting to park in
that spot. Anyway, I'm like, man, now take me in my cones. The whole thing. Don't mess with Amy.
I know I had had enough. Yeah, the end of the show. Man, none of our topics are going to top that.
I, uh, I used the horn when I was in San Diego, but normally I have my Kia and it,
my horn, when I use my Kia, it's like,
You're not allowed to honk at anyone if you're in a Kia, by the way.
It's like, my horn's like, uh, excuse me. But the Tahoe that I was driving out in San Diego
was a rental and I hit that and that thing was like, move motherfucker. That one was loud. And I
just, because it was just, it was supposed to be a gentle, but it was not a gentle horn.
It didn't even have it in it to be. I did the, sorry.
I have a truck that has a train horn in the bed of it. It's obnoxious.
And it is fricking a hundred decibels when when you lay on that thing, you have to prime it.
There's an air pump underneath the hood. So you flip on a switch to prime the
prompt pump and get the compressed air in the tank.
Why would you put something like that on your truck?
To be the biggest ass you can be. And that's what your goal was.
I mean, if somebody deserves it, they're going to get it. So,
well, that took the horn. Yeah. Yeah. I've never heard you. it.
You've had the truck at the house to show Isla the truck because it's huge.
Just like a big monster truck and she used to watch Blaze.
Yeah. She called it Blaze. It looks just like Blaze.
The monster. Blaze and the monster machines. Yeah. So she's not,
at that point, she was the same height as the tire.
Yeah. It's awesome. It's huge.
All right. That was another episode of the Dirty 30 presented by Arby's new
