Hey friends, welcome to stacking pennies. Awesome episode last week. Appreciate all of the comments on that. That was a fun one talking to one of the greats and one of the greats behind him on the box with the Rainbow Warriors. Ray Everingham joined us in studio today. I'm excited about this one as well. He's got his hands still in a lot of stuff. We're going to talk about all things. 24th, Dodge. What else? I Rock Series. Now he's spent a lot of these guys back up. So Ryan and I are going to grill him a little bit and see if we're kind of goods we can get out of Ray Everingham and his successful Hall of Fame career. All sorts of different stuff. Motorsports show coming right up.

That's cool that Jeff was on because we all know that, you know, I wouldn't be in the Hall of Fame without him. So cool, we're still, he's still like my little brother. So as soon as I heard he was on the show, I had to be on it. I know.

1:29.2

You know. You know, all your people reached out to our people. Now here we are. You said you were getting lunch with him this week. What is like a conversation now, you know, decades after all the success? Like what's, you said he's like your little brother. Like, what do you guys talk about?
