I sure miss seeing Elliott on the track. My favorite NASCAR driver ever. I met him at a fan event at Dale Jarrett’s in Hickory - there were signs up - 1 autograph only - I told him I had a car and a shirt - he said “I’ll sign anything you got” and laughed we took a bunch of pictures with him. Happy he is enjoying life! Thanks Kenny! ❤️ You too!!

Great show!!! BTW, I feel like NASCAR decided they didn't need all of us older fans either so a lot of us from the same era can relate.

When a man can father children and create enough wealth to leave a job, and participate in there children’s lives, is very rare. Hooorah for Elliott!!!

Thats what breaks my heart, Nascar is going away from what the actual fans want, but instead doing what they think is best, which is hurting nascar more than helping. I voted for Elliot. Nascar is going the same route as F1, gunning towards the rich and money and throwing away the real fan base that help build up racing. Im blessed to grow up with racing from 70s. Drivers actually appreciated fans. Celebrities that dont even watch or know about nascar are honored at a race just to promote them is ridiculous.

Being from Virginia and a Elliott Sadler fan, I was happy to see this, I must admit I’m still pissed off over Ryan Preece in that championship run.

Kenny this is so good . So many ins and outs . I miss drivers like Elliot in this series. Characters. That long time race fans can relate to.

It would be a dream come true to see Elliott come out of retirement to run one SRX race...... he truly is an amazing person as well as a criminally underrated driver, I will always remember him as the guy that drove the OG M&M's car in the no. 38... Robert Yates (Rest In Peace), when he teamed up Elliot with Dale Jarrett, talk about a match made in heaven!

Elliott is a cool dude. Lucky I got to meet him. GTV Truck victory at Pocono was amazing.

I love Elliott Sadler he had one of the most crazy crashes of all time.. Glad he wasn’t hurt

I didn’t realize how much I missed Elliott Sadler. I wished him well in Homestead when he was racing for the championship. Such a nice person. Kenny, you’re on a hot streak with these chats.

So glad Elliott is happy helping kids. He was one of my favorite drivers, so I’m glad he’s doing well!

He's a good dude. I wish today's Drivers were allowed to have a real personality.

This man has his priorities straight. Thanks for sharing this, Kenny! I've missed Mr. Sadler, and am happy to see him and hear he's doing well.

Thanks Elliot,sure enjoyed you and Kenny reliving your NASCAR past.I'm glad you are happy and busy in your retirement,with your sports and mentoring young kids,teaching them about life,and how to be successful in their choices.Surprised that no one mentioned that Rusty and Elliot each have their own HERMINATOR,for a brother.God Bless Dale and Kelly for what they did for Elliot,and what they continue to do for Stockcar racing.

Good ol Elliot saddler this was awesome

Great episode Herm. Love Sadler, just a cool dude. Wish he could have won a title with JRM

Thank You Kenny for doing this. We never know what a drivers life is like. I have watched racing since the old track in Myrtle Beach 1955 - 1956 every Saturday night. Now I rarely watch NASCAR races because of what they have done to the sport. (NEGATIVE) They have cost themselves over 2/3's of their old spectators from day one the people that made them. They have done it to them selves

For 30+ years when I drove from NY South I stopped at Sadlers Gas Station exit 11 VA, that's what loyal race fans do. I still stop fyi. Legends like you and Elliott gave us so many amazing memories. ES is a pure Class Human Being and an Amazing Father

Elliott Sadler was the cover-star of NASCAR 07 from EA sports… That’s how famous he was at one point, and Kenny Wallace was the driving instructor for the career mode cut-scenes.

man I thought the Music business was Cut Throat but this is wild. thanks Kenny and Elliot I'm so sorry you all take care

You just keep getting better and better, is that even possible?! Love ya Herm God Bless and God Bless Elliott Sadler.

Kenny, I love that you mentioned Kenny Irwin. Makes me feel happy that my all time favorite driver is still mentioned from time to time. Thank you. Keep up the great videos.

OUTSTANDING INTERVIEW Herm. Thank you Elliott. Hope to see u again at the truck stop so I can thank you in person!

Went to 2 of his "Yard" parties and had a great time mingling with Elliott and his fans and seeing all his dogs.

It's so great to see him! Thanks Kenny👍♥️Thanks Elliot.♥️ You let us see our "old" faves like Steve Park, Elliot, Carl, Shrader...so many. Love it.

Elliott was always one of my favorites. I moved to Florida in 2016, go to Daytona every year. He was always a threat to win in Xfinity. He had some close races there, but couldn’t quite win. I was heartbroken, but still enjoyed the hell out of watching him.

Another great interview Kenny, you and Elliott are both gentle souls... I'm glad you had the opportunity to interview him!!

Thank you Kenny for all you do with podcast and dirt racing. There was a reason Elliott didn't win the Daytona 500, the good lord knew his wife and son was going to need him there.

I spent 17 years in Virginia while on Active duty and followed Elliott a lot. I really liked him a lot Thanks for having him on. I will tell you that I have stopped watching NASCAR every week. I just don't identify with the new drivers.

Kenny, great show. Love the show, each one is getting better and better. Always been a Elliot Sadler fan (and a Kenny Wallace fan). Keep up the great work your doing.

Happy Sunday to you and all. The 60's are amazing Herman. Hopefully they treat you as blessed as I've been. 🙏

These conversations are really great! You been doing Kenny. ❤

That was excellent!!!! Really enjoyed this one!!! Much to be said for how NASCAR treated/treats its "older" drivers as well as it's "older" fans. Also was great to hear you guys compare NASCAR Cup to IROC. There's a reason IROC went bankrupt. Take care and keep up the great work!!!

I was a diehard Sadler fan for a long time already in 2011 when he won that Pocono race and as a fan that race felt just as good for us

Elliot is one of the best guys you will ever interview. was a big fan of him through most of his career

I rooted for Elliott the entire time he was at Jr. Motor Sports! Loved watching him race! Miss him a ton! It was really good to see him and here him on this episode!

Great podcast. I’ve been saving this for a time when I was bored driving the truck. I thought it would be good to snap me out of boredom. I was right. Your to be commended for this. The stories and conversations are some of the best content. When I raced go karts we used to call it bench racing. Raced karts one time from Texas at gateway exit4 pavement track. Any many thanks for these great stories. Being from Texas,Corn flakes Terry Labonte was always my guy. Remember when they raced at Texas World? That’s going back a day or two. At least they haven’t shut down Devils bowl yet. Keep the great podcasts coming keeping me company in the 18 wheeler. Still miss NASCAR Performance on speed. Godspeed

Thanks Herm. I grew up a race fan . Larry Philips was a home state mentor. I will always be a show me state race fan. I appreciate what you and your crew bring to us. These stories have been unanswered till now. Thanks.

Elliott and DJ were great teammates. Maybe one of the best driver pairings in NASCAR history. Elliott is the man everyone should strive to be in life.

Wow. It was so awesome that Elliott Sadler was on the Kenny conversation I always loved that he was the most popular driver. What a wonderfull person.❤

Uncle Herm! Elliott! Been following you since Southampton, Langley....

Kenny & Elliott thanks for this. Fans never think of the behind the scenes. I never did until my 10 year old cousin just started running the Maxxis series. He’s from IA and think he’s the only one that heads south and races in his blue jeans and thanks his pig sponsor 😂 He goes to FL and all over not knowing if he’ll make the feature. I remember Elliott’s sleeping in the car for more time with kids ❤️ That Preece thing had Elliott fans up in arms and mad at Preece forever. Oh, one last thing…Elliott & Hermie had great fan club barn parties & Blake sometimes showed.

Elliott was a great driver with a lot of talent. He won a few restricter plate qualifying poles. I remember when he won the pole at Talladega a few times. I watched a video clip of the 2003 NASCAR Qualifying Session at Talladega(Fall) and Elliott Sadler drove the M&M’s Car and he won the pole. That Qualifying Session had a surprising list of drivers that were knocked out of the field based on provisional points like Mike Bliss, Kevin Lepage, Kyle Petty, Steve Park, Todd Bodine, and another guy. He also won the pole for the Talladega Qualifying Sessions a couple of times after in 05 and I think he won in 06. Elliott and Hermie were both good drivers and I remember Hermie driving the #02 Car. Elliott did a great job driving the #19 Car. Great driver and I will never forget him.

I haven't followed NASCAR in a number of years but it is good to hear the positive lives these two are having in car driver retirement.

I was at S. Boston with Elliot’s dad and it was one of Elliot’s first Busch Races. He moved up in the field, quickly and his excellent talent was obvious! Congrats Elliot Sadler (BTW: a great stick and ball athlete. All Star baseball! And just a good guy !!!

Awesome two legends of the sport!

Simply captivating conversation. Outstanding.

Kenny, you keep knocking these interviews out of the park!!!!!!!! Love & miss Elliott. Great to see & hear him again.

Wonderful interview. Elliott was honest and straight talk. I wished NASCAR run the bodies that the manufacturers build. Let the teams run rear gears they want to run instead of NASCAR giving them the gears. What wins on Sunday sells on Monday.

I love Elliott’s voice. Just a country boy. I always loved when he would get upset with Gordon, and others drivers. That southern drawl would come out. They didn’t want none. I sure do miss watching him race. Glad to see him happy tho.

Much respect to be with family, outside looking in I think most drivers leave and retire is the pressure that they want the young guys in the sport. Drivers are being pushed out. Back in the day drivers didn’t get those big contracts you had to race. Most of the young drivers know nothing about cars just how to drive.

So I live a few miles from BMS and have had the pleasure to meet many great Nascar drivers..... sorry and I am actually NOT sorry, this dude is a major DBAG(ELLIOT)!!!!! I really wished I would've taped our interaction

Great stuff!! Good dude. Always enjoyed him and his bologna burgers! Lol

Love this miss these days 😢 get Jeremy Mayfield on the show please

Kenny you could do interviews on the toilet, lmao! Elliot I am glad you are so straight forward. You both have a form of PTSD and not meaning a bad thing but letting go. US veterans have this with comradery and family while in. Thank you two for telling it like it is. Elliot I asked you back in the early 2000's up at Richmond (I know you don't remember) can I drop your name with that state cop who sits there and waits on speeders out there off 58. You said you would probably get it doubled, lmao! So I would not do that. Take care.

Man I miss watching Elliott out there.

Even Kevin Harvick said it take some of the wing away and bring back the horsepower because of guys have to let off or can’t floor the car because it’s got power. It’s gonna change everything on intermediate road course and short tracks.

Jr & Elliott posted in same week ❤️❤️ He had some awesome sponsors too. A lot of $ on die casts. 21, 38, 19, 1 Next can you have Ward Burton? I voted MPD for you now it’s been Justin. Great people.

NASCAR isn't the same. Miss all the "older" drivers. That's when racing was racing. Especially miss Elliott S.

Dale,Jarret was my favorite driver. Then Elliot Sadler. I Respect him so much for leaving racing to be there for his kids.

Loved it Kenny! Rusty was my favorite and Elliott was my second favorite. When he started in the then Busch series he would come out to his souvenir trailer and hardly anyone would stop. My husband and I had very nice conversations with him at Darlington. I'm so glad to see how happy he is.

Awesome video 📹 Nascar is not the the same back in the day my family and I watch Nascar racing on Sunday like going to church if they had one race with all the drivers from the past it would sell out like back in the day... now the podcast shows have all the fans keep doing what you doing 👏 and keep living the dream ✨️

Wow what a great person Elliott may have never been a nasczr champion bit he is a great person and his respect for people make him a true champion Elliott thank you for just being who u are Saying what you said about Dale Jr and Kelly is the best championship any driver could give

Another Good Show!! Another driver who left to early but completely understand why.

Kenny u agree with you that Dale jr pod cast is the best, but I think with your Kenny conversation you are right up there with him , Elliot is one of the best,these stories are fantastic.

I liked this one .......great job Herm ....✌️

Another great show Kenny! IMO they need to "dirty them up" a little from an aero perspective so the lead car has an aerodynamic disadvantage. Remember how exciting the new car was for the first 5 or 6 races? Once the engineers start tweaking the cars they all become aero sensitive. Like Joey Logano said, every 2 years there should be a big rule change to improve the competition.

They look like matchbox cars been a fan of both u guys for a long time both class acts

Oh my god, an great interview and see Elliot Sadler an great professional , Sadler rembember the NASCAR 07 video gane , and of course , Sadler he driving the 2000 season , number 21 Citgo Ford, the year 2003 the himself car 21 but to team Wood Brothers , Motorcraft Ford, and 38 to the team Robert Yates Racing M&M'S Ford , please Kenny send my afection and respect to Elliot Sadler. 😊 Greetings from Chile. 😃

The money is not the same now and you have to pay to race. Guys don’t want to do that into their 50s. Having to try and find 5 or more main sponsors to be fully funded doesn’t sound like fun for a 50 y/o

Good to see your doing good Elliott you to Herman

This was another awesome conversation! It was interesting, entertaining and Elliott is spot on about today's cars and taking the ingenuity out of racing. Thank you both for a great show!

Another GREAT K.W. interview, Love Elliot Sadler, I thought they said he was Blake Shelton s cousin, back then!! Excellent Show, KENNY!!

Kenny! For the internet WIN! I hope you keep getting these "old" gladiators on! 😂 It's like Behind the Music or What are they doing now? I could listen for days! You gotta get Newman or the Biff next!

Kenny, another great video. I always was a fan of Elliott. Its so interesting as a nascar fan to find out how unhappy drivers can be at the top due to the grind of it. Glad to see Elliott and yourself figure it out that family is your happiness. Kenny maybe having a nascar wife on to explain how difficult it was with the ups and downs of that lifestyle. Hearing Jamie and Elliott tslking about it. Dale Jr. Saying how he cried about qualifying. As a fan we don't realize it. Kenny your great at this Kenny Conversations. Keep up with the great convetsations. Can't wait for Rowdy's conversation. Thanks for keeping Nascar interesting 😊

Yet another great interview Herm, Thanks. I attended that Bristol Cup race he won. Was also present to see him win Dega, racing for Dale Jr. Maybe Elliott needed me to go to more races 🤣🤣

Learned so much about people from your conversations a lot of truth and history in lives of drivers in the sport of racing it doesn’t get any better than that thank you.

Elliott, Miss you. Your The Man!!!

Elliott has earned a spot in the HOF hopefully in the future Nascar will introduce Elliott Sadler into the Hall,

What a class act you are Elliot!👍

Im late to the dance getting round to seeing this one but well worth the wait, great job Kenny, a very eye opening interview with Elliott, so glad he's doing well in his post NASCAR life :)

Luv everything you do ❤

Kenny - I really enjoy these conversations- very eye opening being able to peek behind the curtain and get the drivers perspective. There was a bunch of things I didn’t know about Elliot - thanks to you and Elliot, this was great!

Roughest loss for me as a Sadler fan was the Indy Nationwide race where he was pushed ahead of the leader on a late restart and he was penalized while a second or two ahead of the field. He did win the following week in Iowa though

Fantastic episode Kenny 🏆🏁

great stuff Herm thanks so much for the content!

Elliott is my all-time favorite driver! I miss the fun commercials you all did in the wrestling ring...I think it was stacker 2

Helps driving for JRM. Justin Algier is my favorite XFINITTY driver!

Have missed Sadler. Great guy

Great interview. So great to see and hear Elliott.

That was a great interview Kenny I wonder if Elliot still eats bologna burgers. The reason I like Elliot cuz he seemed like he could have be your neighbor and the most friendliest guy there was in NASCAR

Elliot needs to run the srx series he would have a blast

Thanks sooo much herm for this video, I live in the Same town as this legend, I also used to hunt with him, everything he's saying is facts, we are soooo proud to have him to still spend his days in our little small town

Great job Kenny great interview

Another good interview with Sadler loved it

Most drivers start racing earlier now plus get to NASCAR at a earlier age than used to . I can remember when you had to be 30 yrs old before you could get top level cup rides . Also drivers make more money earlier in their career and can afford to retire earlier

Jarrett and Sadler fan for life. Not done with either of ya

Another great interview there buddy

Kenny just another block buster of a show love everything your doing sir......

Great interview enjoy both of you guys!!!
