DALE JR. DOWNLOAD Hosted By Dale Earnhardt Jr. Joins NBCSN's Lineup Of Motorsports Programming  Image

NBC Sports Group hits the ignition switch on NASCAR on NBC's fourth season of Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series racing, with a new 30-minute show, the Dale Jr. Download, debuting Thursday, June 21 at 5:30 p.m. ET on NBCSN. In collaboration with NBC Sports' newest on-air contributor Dale Earnhardt Jr. (@DaleJr), NBCSN takes viewers couch-side for the taping of the motorsports icon's weekly podcast. The latest addition to NBC Sports' extensive motorsports lineup, the Dale Jr. Download will air each Thursday at 5:30 p.m. ET following NASCAR America.

NASCAR's Most Popular Driver for an unprecedented 15 consecutive years (2003-17) and winner of two Daytona 500s, Earnhardt co-hosts the show withMike Davis. Thursday's debut episode surrounds Father's Day, Earnhardt's first as a dad. Earnhardt will reflect on his time as a new parent, and share some of his favorite memories of his own father, Dale Earnhardt Sr.

"Our approach with the TV show will be no different than our approach with the podcast - buddies hanging out, talking racing, sharing life stories, and telling jokes that may or may not be funny only to us," said Earnhardt. "I'm having a lot of fun with the podcast, and we are excited to be bringing it to TV. If we have a guest join us, it's only because they're relevant to whatever has my attention that week. It could be a NASCAR driver, or it could be my plumber - depends on who's more important to me that week. The Download is as TRANSPARENT as I can be when it comes to my life and thoughts."

Produced on-site at Dirty Mo Media Studios in Mooresville, N.C., Earnhardt and Davis raise the bar with unparalleled perspective, candid commentary, and first-person insight into the life of a broadcaster and celebrated race car driver.

The full Dale Jr. Download podcast is available at DirtyMoMedia.com and all major podcasting platforms.
