Chris just recently signed a multiyear extension with the team so the boys give him his flowers for that. Then we get into the nitty gritty, Ryan and Chris have this ongoing prank war going on against each other. The guys get into how all of that started, who pulled the first prank, who maybe went too far, and what the next prank may be.
The guys then get into what each of their journey’s was like coming of through the NASCAR ranks. Chris being from Texas and Ryan being from Connecticut, both of their journeys were very different. Chris and Ryan also talk about what it’s like racing their team owner every week. The K in RFK Racing stands for Keselowski, being Brad Keselowski. They get into what it was like at first realizing that the guy who signs your checks, you’re also competing for the win.
The guys finish the pod off with talking about Ryan’s absolutely insane crashes at Daytona. He says how chaotic, or maybe not, the wrecks were and how he has since been able to profit off of them. Ryan and Chris also get into what it was like racing Crown Vics and Talladega with Cleetus McFarland. The whole thing sounds crazy and one of them say it was the craziest thing he has ever done is his life. Come join the boys for another fun episode, enjoy.
