Then the conversation turns to the Hocevar-Cindric incident, whether NASCAR should have issued a penalty, and why Jeff wants to see the two-lap penalty used more often.

Ryan Blaney joins Door Bumper Clear fresh off a rough weekend at Talladega, and there was plenty to unpack.

Blaney breaks down the wreck that ended his day, why he knew things were getting sketchy before the crash, and where the result leaves his championship hopes heading into Martinsville.

Then the conversation shifts to some of the biggest talking points from Talladega. Blaney weighs in on NASCAR’s yellow-line rule and why he says getting rid of it would be a terrible idea, plus why he hates the fuel-saving game that had him riding around Talladega at quarter throttle for 50 laps.

Plus, Blaney reacts to Riley Herbst’s massive crash, gives his music Mount Rushmore, tells the story behind Bubba Wallace’s cowboy boot era, updates the crew on his farm and its aggressive llama problem, and plenty more!

Jimmie Johnson joins Door Bumper Clear ahead of his final Cup Series start and says he’s finally ready to walk away. He talks about bringing the No. 48 back to Daytona one last time, and why his family might actually believe him this time.

Plus, Jimmie admits he got tired of the best job in the world. He opens up about wishing he’d had two more years with Chad Knaus, and explains why Legacy Motor Club’s tough season has been “self-inflicted.”

The crew also gets into Carson Hocevar tearing up 8 or 10 Legacy cars this year, and why Jimmie is still just eating his popcorn and watching. He also tells the story of the one time Chad gave him permission to wreck Kurt Busch at Richmond. It did not go as planned.

And, of course, Reaction Theatre doesn’t spare a seven-time champ. One fan is still punching pillows over 2016.

From Daytona goodbyes and Chad Knaus stories to failed revenge on Kurt Busch, Jimmie Johnson has plenty to say in this one.

Leigh Diffey and Jeff Burton join Door Bumper Clear, and after a wild weekend at Charlotte, there was a lot to get into.

Jeff opens up about the biggest regret of his career: rushing out of victory lane after his first win at Texas, and skipping victory lane entirely when his brother Ward won the Daytona 500. He also explains why a $100 bill signed “first driver contract” by Richard Childress is hanging in his office.

Leigh tells the story of trying to set up a day with Ward Burton, and the text reply that came back. He also runs through the nicknames he’s picked up over the years, including a few you won’t hear on TV.

Then the conversation turns to the Chase. Kyle Larson didn’t win at Charlotte and still extended his lead. Chase Briscoe said he’d attack Larson from the start and did. And Leigh says he’s never seen Christopher Bell that mad after a race. Jeff explains why Talladega could turn into a chess match with a new rules package and no practice. He also says why he thinks “our sport made a mistake” trying to look like other sports.

Plus, Freddie takes everyone inside Bubba Wallace’s hard crash, the guys react to Sam Mayer calling out the drivers behind him, Reaction Theater catches Jeff’s apparent “Caution Hocevar” slip, and plenty more!

Jeff Dickerson joins Door Bumper Clear and doesn’t shy away from the lawsuit involving Spire Motorsports and why he feels like the team has been taking shots from every direction.

Plus, Dickerson breaks down Brad Keselowski leaving RFK and why Carson Hocevar’s biggest improvement this year has had less to do with speed and more to do with finishing races.

The crew also gets into Carson’s reputation inside the garage and whether his “I don’t care” attitude is completely real.

And, of course, Reaction Theatre delivers another round of completely unhinged calls from NASCAR fans.

From lawsuits and garage politics to Carson Hocevar being Carson Hocevar, Jeff Dickerson has plenty to say in this one.

Tony Stewart joins Door Bumper Clear and, safe to say, there was a lot to get into.

Tony opens up about still being bitter over parts of his NASCAR past, the Christmas text he got from Steve O'Donnell, and the meeting with NASCAR that had him thinking about his retirement plan. He also explains how he somehow got fired from his own race team by his wife and what really happened to that infamous Watkins Glen fire suit.

Then the conversation turns to today's NASCAR. Tony weighs in on the Ryan Blaney-Carson Hocevar fight, why he thinks drivers used to police each other differently, and why he says today's drivers "have no idea how easy it is now" compared to his era.

Plus, the crew gets Tony talking drag racing, old NASCAR stories, the grudge Tommy's still holding 30 years later, and plenty more!

Welcome back to Door Bumper Clear — your source for hot takes, raw emotion & occasionally a string of words you never thought you'd hear put together in a sentence.

This week, Freddie Kraft, Tommy Baldwin & Karsyn Elledge were FINALLY joined by the incomparable Ryan Preece. He shared some insight into his Northeast racing roots and dug into his race at Bristol with the gang.

In Spot On, Spot Off, the topics included:

• Carson Hocevar wrecked Blaney ... twice.
• The Joey Logano Even Year Myth is REAL
• Justin Allgaier on Jesse Love's "egregious" move
• Did Bristol prove the need for stages?
• The ARCA series optics were tough

During Reaction Theatre, we had what we think is an all-time high for callers with 743 voicemails left during the week! Wonder why...

As we roll through SSHOF, Ask DBC & DBC Picks, we finish up with Weekend Winners, where we talked to Fonda 200 winner Stewart Friesen about his race weekend.

Another phenomenal show is the books! Catch y'all next time on DBC.

TJ Majors joins Door Bumper Clear for a mini reunion to break down a wild one at St. Louis as the guys react to Kyle Larson finally ending his winless streak, the strategy call that helped put him in Victory Lane, and everything that went sideways throughout an 18-caution race.

The crew also has plenty to say about St. Louis' pit road and spotter stand, why the track’s current pit road setup creates some serious problems, and whether NASCAR needs to make some changes before coming back.

Plus, the guys discuss Carson Hocevar’s interaction with fans on the frontstretch, Tommy and Freddie just won’t agree over who was at fault for Bubba Wallace’s wreck off turn two, and Reaction Theatre disses Freddie again.

Buckle up, this show might be more chaotic than Sunday’s race.

Jamie McMurray joins Freddie Kraft, Tommy Baldwin and Karsyn Elledge on Door Bumper Clear this week, and they have a LOT to get into.

It's a full Southern 500 breakdown to start. Why is Darlington arguably the toughest single test of the NASCAR season? How did Christopher Bell finally get that first win after finishing runner-up seven times? And was Denny Hamlin actually in the wrong for sliding Michael McDowell? Jamie says no, and he makes a pretty convincing case.

The Carson Hocevar conversation isn't going away, either. What is he missing compared to the best drivers in the sport? Would an apology even change anything at this point? Plus, fan voicemails about Carson get... brutal.

Then there's breaking news: Josh Berry is confirmed for the No. 42 next year, meaning John Hunter Nemechek is out. The guys break down the money, the timing, and why this move could be about a lot more than just results.

There's also a completely unhinged hospital story that might be one of the wildest we've ever heard on DBC. We're not spoiling that one.

Plus, Corey Day and William Sawalich's Chase beef, Otto Sitterly's sixth Bud Classic win, a call from 13-year-old racer Owen Larson after his big win, and Jamie McMurray's forgotten cameo in Talladega Nights.

The Door Bumper Clear crew is back to break down a wild weekend of NASCAR racing, from Ryan Preece punching his ticket to The Chase to the chaos that unfolded at the end of the race.

Freddie, Tommy and Eric are joined by Regan Smith to dive into the latest superspeedway package and debate whether NASCAR needs shorter, more frequent stages to keep drivers from riding around saving fuel. The crew also breaks down why the first stage looked so much like old-school Daytona, what NASCAR can do to make the racing even better, and why the sport may be closer than ever to getting superspeedway racing right.

The guys also celebrate Ryan Preece's incredible playoff-clinching win and discuss just how much the victory means after the sacrifices he made to keep his racing career alive. Plus, they debate the biggest surprises of the playoff cut line, including Brad Keselowski and Ross Chastain, and celebrate Ryan Sieg finally getting his first NOAP Series win after 424 starts.

Then there's the chaos: the final-lap wreck, Denny Hamlin’s malfunctioning in-car camera, NASCAR leaving the race green through a major wreck, and whether drivers should really be expected to go wide open through incidents in the pack.

And, of course, the guys have plenty to say about the announcement of Days of Thunder 2, Cole Pearn’s hilarious reaction to the news, and the future of the Truck Series.
