What I don't think people realize is Dale Sr dying on the last lap at Daytona is comparable to Jordan dying in game 7 of the Finals in front of a live crowd, with millions of others watching, while sharing the court with his son. The entire sport would be looking at each other like, what in the fuck are we gonna do now? The immense, unbelievable scrutiny and pressure Dale Jr has had since Daytona in 2001 is immeasurable. It's indescribable really. And he's handled himself with the utmost class, he's carried the sport on his shoulders after his dad passed and into the next generation. I don't think anyone could've done it like he did.

Almost comparable to that. The possibly that you could die in a racecar is always in the back of the mind of the average fan. Its a very possible thing to happen. Its part of the nature and lure of the sport. Michael Jordan having a massive heart attack and dying on the court on game 7 is almost not even a possibility or a "yeah that could happen" type thing.

The other thing here ...do you realize that Dale Jr. was treated like shit by his father for nearly his entire life? I never liked Dale Jr until he started to share stories about how piss poorly he was treated by his father. Matter of fact ... Jr goes out of the way to tell stories about the way he was treated. He often speaks about how his Dad was a real human being who didn't always handle things well. I wonder if Sr was around if Jr would have turned out as well as he has. I am not sure he would have. Lets be clear though ...Jr never carried the slack for NASCAR when his Dad died. Gordon was light years ahead of those dudes long before Sr. died.

I understand why Senior was like this toward his son a little bit, but he took it too far. His son deserved some encouragement and he should have told his son that he was proud of him.

I've never seen someone more sincere and honest as Dale jr in this interview

100% pure honesty. In my opinion, JR was not a super great driver, but his personality makes up the difference.

I watched him win 4 straight races at Talladega. Nobody else in Nascar history can say that.🤫

New respect for Dale Jr. What an outstanding and respectful human being. It's nice to see him speaking openly and being vulnerable.. his dad did a helluva job and I guarantee you if he has kids they're amazing as well.

Sr. had the pure ole school hard southern man. It hurts him to show love to love ones because it makes him feel weak. He do love his son. My dad had it for years now he understands compassion. Best part is, with a father like that you must watch him and learn because he not going to offer up much. If you watch you will learn to be a man from his life lessons. You will also not be ashamed to love your own kids because you know how it felt.

Very true. My grandfather told me one time that his dad never told him he loved him, never hugged him, never showed any affection towards him. But after he died he found journals that his dad had written about how proud he was of him.

Apparently Dale Earnhardt and my father were the same man, or were raised the way.

This is definitely one of the hard things about being a guy. Trying to navigate around two male egos, my own feelings (things I'm sensitive to), and trying to act in a manner my father can be proud of. Talking about our mutual emotions can feel like a gamble for so many reasons. And I'm still over here looking for validation from random fucking people...a product of social media

Clint Eastwood son had similar stories. Once he auditioned for his father. Not in person but via a tape. He did not get a call to the studio. Joe asked him if he asked his father why he did not get the part. He answered: "I did not talk about it to him, I wouldn't dare. My father is really old school".

There is NO DOUBT that Jr. learned how to draft from his Dad. He could no way be that good at plate tracks without insight from his Father. I don't think Jr. is telling the whole story when it comes to drafting. He mentions it himself in interviews when his Dad was still alive !!!

@Jaden Pearce DW = Darrell Waltrip. RCR = Richard Childress Racing. 1 & 2 were Michael Waltrip and Dale Jr's cars but the OP is wrong about their teams. They weren't on RCR's team. They were on Dale Sr's company's team, Dale Earnhardt Inc. Dale Sr. still raced for RCR at the time of his death. What seemed out of character at the time for Dale Sr, is at that specific race, was he was blocking for Dale Jr. and Michael Waltrip on the last lap. He was always known for racing to win for himself, even when his son was racing with him. Heck, he even bumped his son sometimes but on that day he was trying to help them win. Unfortunate he never saw the result of two of his cars taking 1 and 2 at Daytona (the track that he had the most difficulty winning at). I think that's what OP was trying to express.

I had the same relationship with my son but the last time I saw him we got along didn't fight one month later I lost him sometimes I wonder if I was to hard on him because I knew he could do great things but I felt like he was wasting his life but really he was just finding his way i would like to tell him I'm sorry but I can't now 💔

Joe Rogan is conducting some of the best interviews I have ever seen, this is no exception, what an amazingly interesting interview. I have had the same relationship with my father. Unfortunately I don't think I have become a very good man, this interview makes me realize that I need to be a better person.

Damn, that was one intimate conversation. Dale is the real deal and Joe is a brilliant interviewer.

I appreciate Joe asking a question and then shutting up and just letting Dale have moments of silence while essentially reliving it in his mind until he can put it into words. One of the reasons Joes show is so good.

Jr is a class act. Great interview as always Joe.

Jr's the nicest guy in the world.

Joe is an excellent interviewer. He really listens and lets you answer without interruption. The questions are asked with respect and he gets to the point.

Hearing what Dale Jr. went through as a kid makes me feel not alone. My dad played professional baseball and I use to hate him coming to my practices and games because I knew I would never meet his expectations.

"Dale you've got a great perspective...". Boom, perfect sentence Joe.

In life, my biggest motivation was and still is to not disappoint my dad and to make him proud. You could beat me, yell at me, talk shit to me and I wouldn't care. But if he ever said I'm just disappointed in you it literally killed me, it haunted me because of how much he means to me and all he has done for me as a kid. I watched how hard he worked and always hear how great of a guy he is and so I always want to make the guy proud.

Jr is a very kind and humble person. I had a pit pass in Charlotte one year, and finally found jr to get and autograph, but when i got to him the had to go to the driver meeting. about 30 mins later he actually came up to me and signed his name on my pass.

I was the only person in my circle of friends and family who wasn't a NASCAR fan, and even I cried when Dale died. Dale Jr. seems like the kind of son any dad would love to have.

Jr ended up exactly how Dale wanted him to be.... a genuine, honest, and sincere man. Dale’s only duty was to make him into a man, not a driver like him. Jr had to be his own driver and win races of his own ability. I think that is why his relationship with his dad turned a corner because his dad then looked at him as a peer after he saw he was good on his own. Dale did a great job.

literally balling my eyes out for this guy. watched the emplemon doc on Dale and had no idea… so so sad… He raised a great son.

Hard to dislike this guy. So real and genuine. One of the best father son duos ever.

Wow. I had a similar relationship with my Father. He was extremely critical of me, and barely acknowledged any of my accomplishments. I finally left home and joined the Army. Nine months after joining the Army, I found myself in Desert Storm. After that, our relationship changed drastically. He finally accepted me as a man and we had the best relationship any Father and son could ever hope for. I can totally relate to this story.

I saw my dad cry for the first time when Dale Sr passed away. It was so intense. Watching this and listening to Dale Jr talk about his dad reminds me of myself with my Dad. I'm a tall guy and my dad would always ask me how tall I was infront of people and I'd tell him and he'd be like, "Damn I didn't think they stacked shit that high." lmao we had our ups and downs but in the end hes my dad and I love him.

Dale Jr is a helluva man. From the depths of my heart, he's a helluva man.

One of his dads last moments was looking ahead at his son, on victory lane gunning for it on the home straight. Those few seconds must have been something else. I'm sure he was proud in the moment, before 2 impacts and lights out. He died doing what he loved and was known for, couldn't have been a greater death going out with the fans one last time. NASCAR through and through. His death for sure prevented many more.

Dale Jr is a humble man. I'm proud of him and lord knows Dale Sr was and is proud of him. He just wanted the best for him!

I think maybe senior wanted junior to earn his accomplishments. Senior had done so much and wanted people to respect his son for his own skill and talent. It's just a theory on why they didn't talk racing much. Dale junior is a hell of man.

I was a Dale Jr before I listened to this, now I’m a bigger fan. Thank you Joe for giving Mr Earnhardt the opportunity

Second time I've watched this...and I teared up again. My father was a lot like Dale Sr., and was also killed in a tragic accident. I laughed when he said "my dad was a weird dude" ..mine was also. I believe Dale Sr., like my father, was from the "old school", and really didn't know how to show affection, or show encouragement or give complements. I think they saw that as a sign of weakness.

So honest and from his heart. Joe Rogan is a master interviewer.

dale wanted for his son what his own father wanted for him and tried to do the same but in the end lived long enough to help his son and team win what a legend, both sr and jr
