NASCAR legend Dale Earnhardt Jr. may be all grown up now, and the party days might be in the rearview, but don't you think for a second that he's lost his fire. Not one second. Nope. Not even close. The opposite, in fact. Junior certainly sounds more fired up than ever, and that includes his racing days. Dale owns one of the most popular podcasts in America. The Dale Jr. Download is always at the top of the list when it comes to the most streamed/downloaded podcasts, and his media empire – Dirty Mo Media – also produces some incredible NASCAR content. In 2026, folks still listen to Dale Earnhardt Jr. They still idolize him. NASCAR fans can't quit Dale Jr., and I don't blame them. He's Junior, after all. Junior! Anyway, I say all that to say this … did YOU know Dale had a mouth like this? I knew the dude cussed, but this is next-level. If you're at work … headphones IN!Eighteen, for those who lost track. Eighteen. 18!!! It's just so impressive. A little over the top, too, but also … impressive. Sure, some folks will be pissed about this, and I get it. Dale Earnhardt Jr. is supposed to be a role model and kids look up to him and sweet old grandmas listen to his podcast … blah, blah, blah. I get it. See? Foul-mouthed. Disappointing. Lost a fan. Sad. But, to me, this is just the racer coming out of Dale for the first time in a while. You can tell he's been trapped inside a retired guy's body for a while now, and he's finally FREE. This is Junior talking about something he's, clearly, passionate about. Nobody HATED the type of cars they used to run in NASCAR more than Dale Earnhardt Jr. Nobody. He constantly craps on the Car of Tomorrow. Not saying he's crapping on this particular steel-bodied car, but he's also not fully endorsing it. Dale, like his daddy, wanted to be able to BEAT the hell out of someone, clearly, and Martinsvlle was probably the only track where it was possible. So hell yeah, he's gonna drop some F-bombs and sound like a drunken sailor when he's reminiscing about the old Martinsville days. This is all he has now. Just memories. He's retired. He races a Busch Series race once every few years. He's in full dad mode 24/7/365. This is his outlet. His escape. His portal back to the good old days. Eighteen F-bombs in 90 seconds. Impressive for a 51-year-old. He's still got it.
