The following is a production of Dirtymo Media.

All right, everybody.

Welcome to the first edition of the Gluckcast.

Slight upgrade from the Untitled Jeff Gluck podcast name for those of you've been around

a while, but probably not that much of an upgrade.

Because my name's still in it.

And I would rather not have that, but I guess you know, it's my show.

Anyway, my name's Jeff Gluck, and thanks for tuning in here.

We're going to try to make this show sort of a recap of all the talking points of the week

and what, you know, has been on NASCAR Nation's Mind, and then kind of look ahead to the next

race, hopefully do this every Thursday, And we'll just see how it goes. I do have some guests lined up today. I didn't want to post this on X. For those of you watching the live stream, you know, you probably just, you came here anyway. So I'll just give you the lineup. And if you're listening to this on the podcast

version and it didn't turn out this way, probably won't edit it out, but you can find out who

was supposed to be on if they don't show up. But here's the schedule. Coming up in a few minutes,

we're going to have Dale Earnhardt Jr. join us. He graciously volunteered to be the first guest.

So I appreciate that.

Then we're going to have Freddie Craft because I kind of wanted to debate him.

I was going to debate him without even him being there.

And then he kind of volunteered himself because he had a take on Cletus McFarland's presence in NASCAR that I didn't, I don't quite agree with that.

And I wanted to talk through that with him.

Then I'm really excited to have Riley Herbst coming up in about 45 minutes past the start of

the show here.

We'll have Riley Herbst is scheduled to join.
