All right, everybody, welcome back to another edition of the Untitled Jeff Gluck podcast.

0:24.5

I'm your host, Jeff Gluck, and today it's a 12-questions version of the podcast with Eric Amarola of Richard Petty Motorsports.

0:33.7

Now, I'm coming to you from the home of Nate Ryan, who does the NASCAR on NBC podcast.

0:40.8

I've been couch hopping sort of this week between Darlington and Richmond.

1:51.8

And Eric, the first question is, how much of your success has come from your natural ability and how much has come from working at it?
