The episode turns into a deep dive on some unbelievable Dale Earnhardt Sr. stories, including chainsaws and overturned bulldozers. It also leads to a conversation about the race cars in the woods and the shock their daughter had when she realized they were actually real cars. Dale shares memories from growing up around his dad and the moments that made Sr. feel larger than life.\nDale also opens up about his fascination with abandoned and forgotten places, from wrecked race cars hidden in the woods to sunken planes and long-forgotten sites that still carry a story. He explains why he’s always been drawn to that kind of history and mystery, where everything feels frozen in time and just a little bit eerie in the best way. Plus, the latest Ask Amy questions cover adults ordering off the kids menu, late-night wedding food, trivia night categories, and movie quote pet peeves. Dale and Amy also debate what time happy hour actually starts. Stick around after the show for a behind-the-scenes cameo recording from Dale with multiple takes included.\nCheck out Dirty Mo Media on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DirtyMoMedia  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
