Hey friends, welcome to Stacking Penny, Spare Change Edition.

A little bit different of a show this week because we have a big guest, big news.

The 26th National Series schedule dropped this week, and we're going to talk to the man himself,

Ben Kennedy, who press the send button, let's that thing eat. First off, just like every week, we don't want to skimp on giving Austin Dillon his flowers and his burnout because it's pretty solid.

pins with red strings and different parts of the map trying to figure it all out how much work

building up to this point. How do you feel at the moment now that it's out? It's great. You know,
