Jimmy Spencer: Media Portrayed Me To Be A No-Good SOB

- One of the most outspoken drivers in NASCAR history lets it fly with Dale Earnhardt Jr. in part two of this much-anticipated conversation.
Dale Jr. gets Jimmy and co-host Mike Davis to reminisce and share hilarious stories of their time working in NASCAR together from almost getting Mike fired during his first race and the time he got punched out at a Jimmy Spencer autograph session. The two long-time friends also share their favorite Henry Benfield prank stories.

Jimmy laughing during Mike's telling of the Donut story is my favorite part.
That was hilarious🤣🤣
Omg then the porta potties being locked and sprays the toilet paper with gasoline
"It ain't funny but it is" Spencer is a real character. I do like hearing Mike Davis talk about his stories too. And Jr is cracking up! Spencer is needed in NASCAR. We need A SPENCER!
Spencer should replace Gordon in the Booth
you should have heard the first part of it that isn't on here
Man when Mike and Jimmy share stories they both become the most likable people in the room. That’s a hell of a interview.
Just imagine if RCR hired Spencer as Earnhardt's first teammate instead of Mike Skinner I bet they'd have done well together Excitement & Intimidation.
You wonder why that didn’t happen!
I wonder if he would have called him a “no good s.o.b.” like he did Todd Bodine
Imagine those two getting in a fight lol
@@wev2344 Jimmy seemed to be pretty loyal to Travis Carter. He drove for him for the majority of his career.
my uncle, who wasn't even much of a NASCAR fan, back in the 90s somehow met, sat and talked to Jimmy Spencer at an airport... said how great of a guy he was. Have always remembered that story. r.i.p. uncle warren
Characters and personalities like Jimmy are what made NASCAR great.
Jimmy Spencer wasn’t a no good SOB, he was a tough SOB that you don’t cross
Yep. NASCAR needs drivers like ol Spence. I can't name one that tells it like it is today. Maybe Newman but you hardly ever hear from him. The rest just cry and complain about who did what to them.
Greg Biffle literally ran away from Boris Said one time.
@@dimedraweriv258 Yep, I remember that! Boris was like "Somebody needs to give him a friggin' whoppin'!"
@G Money Sorry, but Proof please. I will literally have to see that to believe it.
Jimmy Spencer wasn’t necessarily a “no good sob”… he just had opinions that differs from the mainstream eye… Definitely something to respect
Mr. Excitement speaks his mind and everyone listens except the status quo figures.
Same as Tony Stewart. But Tony Stewart backed his mouth on the race track
Like trump
I do not think I have ever laughed harder then when watching this excerpt. Can not wait to listen to in its entirety. Please bring Spencer back.
Yes absolutely. The best I've ever seen
Why NASCAR will never be the same, no Dale Sr and guys like Jimmy Spencer and others of that era.
Kenny Schrader, sterling marlin, rusty, terry, etc etc The quote un quote good ole boys miss all of them
@@keenenbenton9843 pretty much every driver that started before 2002 had such unique personable personalities. There were a few after that but not really
Can Jimmy have a weekly-Nascar segment on this podcast? 🤣🤣 I love this guy
Years ago, some friends and I got full access passes to Talladega. While walking around the teams' big rigs, we saw Jimmy Spencer cooking hot dogs by his hauler. He was ripping a reporter a new one when we walked up. He stopped the interview, took the time to talk to us, and offered us a hot dog. After speaking for a couple of minutes and declining his offer for a 'dog, we went on our way and Mr. Spencer went back to a very animated (and colorful) conversation with the reporter. Good times and great memories- Thanks Jimmy!
I met Jimmy Spencer when I was like 10 yrs old and he was the nicest guy ever. Was a fan for life after that.
“That damn no good Todd Bodine”
Mis this NASCAR so much
Having grown up in upstate NY not far from the Bodine's I can tell you Brett is the only good one. To this day I will say Geoff is thee biggest prick I have ever met in racing don't care much for Todd either.
The laughing is contagious 😂😂🤣this was a great download 👍
Spencer could have his own Podcast. They don't make them like that no more
No Doubt, wish his show was still on. have to have "Mike" on
you are right brother ! long live Spencer! he is definitely part of the glory day boys !
He's a dandy, that's for sure- these kids they have now reminds me of a Weebalo troup
Merit badge comitee meeting
"Radiooooo Sweetheart"
That would be top tier content.
I can't even remember the last time I have enjoyed 16 minutes and 27 seconds like this.... laughed harder than I have in years..... great job guys....
I loved the donut story! Jimmy laughing was too good lmao
Mike you and Jimmy had some fun times with car owner Henry. Great stories.
Did that guy get his autograph after the punch?
@@steveclarkson5596 very good question....Inquiring minds want to know
I thought Henry Binfield was fuel man for Wood Brothers?
The best series EVER!!! Jimmy Spencer was the best you've ever had on here. PLEASE HAVE HIM ON AGAIN
Dale and Mike I always love Jimmy Spencer he was a hell of a race car driver and then he had his show with ESPN fantastic thanks for the moment she brought me on your show
Laughing my ass off friggin Jimmy Spencer has no filter I swear he's killing me!!!!
Met Jimmy at a bbq in Charlotte, very nice, stand up guy. Shook everybody’s hand and hung out for hours, having fun, telling stories! Mannnnny years ago. Thank you and be well.
Jimmy is the definition of what you call Real. He said what he meant and meant what he said
Hey Dale that was the best show ever. Love Spencer he's crazy
LMAO this is great stuff we need more people to come on your show and tell more stories about stuff like this it's great. Nascar back in the day, memories tell it like it was. I'm a big fan and always will be. Thank you
Love the stories. Jimmy is awesome. Invite him again please
That's funny to me that Mike & Jimmy had such a crazy history together!
The moment Mike said “Ex-lax” at 4:28 is when I lost it 😂😂😂😂because I knew where that story was going 😂😂😂
We used to hang out with Spencer back when they raced at Rockingham. Travis Carter had family in Rockingham and we would all hang out by the pig cooker telling stories. Very fond memories.
That next race Jimmy was suspended from the track, his souvenir trailer had 5 times the crowd. it was longer than Dale Jr's souvenir trailer.
After he taught Kurt Busch a lesson at Michigan.
First thing that comes to mind was the Free Mongo sign 😂
This podcast had me smiling from beginning to end! Lol, good stuff!
I love Jimmy, but Mike was a total dirt bag carrying Jr's water. STFU mike
Great podcast with Jimmy. Miss him! He seems to remember things a lot differently than Mike at times. It’s funny how we see things the way we wanna see them.
Wish they would have mentioned how Kurt Busch hascompletely changed from the early 2000s, early 2010s. Kurt deserves a shout out.
Damn, I love these, and really miss the good ole days of NASCAR...
I just love these Mike Davis & Jimmy Spencer stories!!! Sounds like some really good times.
Spencer is the $h!t. Love and miss this cat in NASCAR.
Omg LMFFAO😂😂😂Jimmys face was so red from laughing😂
Laughed start to finish, great job on this one, could listen to these stories all day
Love Spencer and always been a fan of his.
Jimmy Spencer, my favorite . I wanted him to win every race.
Probably the best DJD series I have seen to date. Jr. let Mike and Jimmy take over the show and tell a great set of stories.
Hilarious! Jimmy and Mike cracked me up topping each other’s stories. Good ole days.
Listen to the full podcast - Jimmy reveals a few things. He believes he has Alzheimer's or at least is suffering the effect of repeated concussions. He talks about why he got out of broadcasting and now just enjoys his life with his wife and grandkids. It is kind of bittersweet. Reminds me of the last time I saw Sterling Marlin and how much Parkinson's has taken him over and he's still out there racing; I'm not sure Sterling could do a Dale Jr Download.
I dont think Sterling could do a podcast back in his heyday. That boy always talked all kinda weird.
They could definitely accommodate for him.
@@MonteLeeMyPOV nah nah, back in the days he just got that "I put moonshine on mah cheerios" Tennessee drawl
I named my cat Sterling after Sterling Marlin and Stirling Moss, lol. I remember Sterling Marlin running that Kodak car for Morgan McClure and it had some particular headers or something that made the car have a high pitched sound. The announcers called him "Nigel Marlin" as Nigel Mansell was in full swing in Formula 1 at the time. He won back to back D500's and went onto a good career, though to this day when a friend wants to leave the car at a bad time I still say "Stay in the car Sterling!" As for my cat, he was a big tuxedo longhair who was very laid back and only feared the vacuum cleaner. He went senile in the end and I had to euthanize him as he was no longer happy. I sat with him so he wouldn't die in a room full of strangers and it was the hardest thing I had done. I wish Mr. Marlin all the best, but I miss my cat.
@@Lasukie That was what I was going to say. I remember an old episode of what might have been Inside Winston Cup that featured Sterling using a metal detector to find relics on Civil War battlegrounds. No fancy stuff for that man. He is salt of the earth.
Yep, that's Jimmy Spencer. He was/is a great guy. Extremely loyal.
@Alex Carter you know nascar was founded by some and that HOF member Junior Johnson is one right?
I was a long time fan ...I believe if he hadn't been so loyal to Travis Carter, he may have won a few more.
@Alex Carter Well hello snowflake.
I'm really loving hearing these great stories from when I first started watching NASCAR. Those were the days. What a life Jr has led to grow up with all the oldies and the goodies, and the newer guys too.
Brilliant, please keep these guest and their stories coming
Damn. I miss guys like Spencer in the series! I didn’t know if I would enjoy this one or not but Mr. Excitement was well worth the listen!!
Fascinating stories!!!!
Jimmy is a national treasure!!!🏁
4:28 Jimmy's laugh is great 😂
“It ain’t funny but it’s funny” 🤣
I'm 26 years old, going on 27 in 2 months, and it is hard to look at mid 60's Jimmy Spencer versus when he was in his 40's when I started watching racing. Where do the years go man? It's hard to wrap my mind around.
Dale I realized that you let Mike run the Spencer interview which makes a GREAT BOSS and Friend. Thank and love U2
Jimmy Spencer, they didn't call him Mr. Excitement for nothing. Love that guy.
Jimmy isn’t lying about the hamburger steak with potato and onion. My dad was good friends with Jimmy and we had multiple restaurants right near Jimmy’s family garage and junkyard and they would always come in and Jimmy would either order lasagna or steak with potato and onion. Every time.
Shang-ri-la Speedway those were the days! Mr. Excitement at his best!
I miss those days too
How can you not like Jimmy Spencer 😎👍🏁
Jimmy Spencer is one of those drivers you can’t help but like
Laughed my ass off on this one lol
3 years later I still laugh at this interview 😂😂😂
Funny comments guys! Mike and Spencer had a wild ride......watching Jr's reactions has been fun too
This was one of the best ones ever
This is fuckin great, this is what we want to hear. Not the bullshit broadcast we hear
It’s nice seeing and listening to the men I grew up watching racing. Great storyteller… he needs his own podcast fr
What makes this so good is that Dale just turned on the microphones and let Mike and Jimmy go 😂
Absolutely love this show. Please keep up the good work Dale Jr. We love you man beyond words you connect so damn good with all of us fans of Nascar and the whole community.
Jimmy spencer ,the crying towel, was a classic
Mike Is the best at imitating Henry 😀😀😀
miss jimmy in nascar, outspoken in a loveable way and downright hilarious on other occasions especially with the crying towel and steve byrnes.
I met spencer at watkins glen .i was like 12 .the older girls ventured off and came back to our site with jimmy freaking spencer!!! I remember i shook his hand and it felt like he crushed it! He stayed for hours playing beer pong.and dad made him some stiff drinks. then sunday shortly after the start his car blew a motor.. i figured it was a bit to do with a hangover 😂😂 i still remember that day like it was yesterday. Ty for a core memory mr spencer!! Edit.. that same weekend I watched dale jr in a teal suv just flying out of the glen and off to somewhere. Still Wonder where jr went
When they tagged Jimmy with nickname "Mr. Wonderful" that was perfect!
This was really good and i hope Dale got some closure on what he said bc that was really rotten what he said and I really do think Jimmy is sorry for saying it.
Great to Mike talk never knew about these stories!
Bruh. Soaked toilet paper with gasoline. Haha
I always liked Jimmy and his tales are great, but the Mike Davis back stories are priceless - who knew?
"Where my Friends Go?" LOL
Jimmy Spencer has always struck me as a good guy. He is the regular at the pub that is always there
I remember Jimmy Spencer back in the days and always thought he was a Big Cry Baby but he turned out to be a good guy. Thank you Jimmy
Dale is such a good hype man. You woulda never thought he would be THIS if you remember him in 2010. He's come so far out of his shell.
I always liked Jimmy. I've seen many times where he got the raw end of the deal by the media.
Jimmy lookin like Mrs Doubtfire
😂😂😂
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Can you imagine if they could get Geoff Bodine on the podcast?
There's a better chance of Jeremy Mayfield doing an Aspen Dental commercial than of Geoff Bodine popping up on Jr's podcast....
Episode 374, March 2022
Absolutely love listening to all of these untold storiesm! I could listen to these all day.
By far, these Spencer interviews have been some of the most entertaining. Thanks
Would be nice to have Henry on the show!!
Mr. EXCITEMENT
Turned on the show!!! And look down and my phones at 8%🏆🏆🏆🏆🏁🏁🏁🏁🏁
OMG that was funny.....Tioga Speedway could get a little sketchy back then I miss that place.
I hurt myself laughing
Jimmy embarrassed me in front of 5000 people when i was getting my award for winning the k-mart kids race against drugs. He became my favorite driver after that. Scared the stage fright right outa me haha
That was the funniest one yet lol
Wow. Spencer is one of my favorite guests so far.
Henry Benifield , His handle was Chicken Man , and he could COOK!!! and yes he was a hoot.
Don't screw with Henry Benfield🤣
I grew up in Owego New York, road my bicycle to the track after the night milking…Shangri-La Speedway …..got to see a lot of the best racers and characters of the sport…..Jimmy was always a favorite….Dutch hoag was the man back then…..he really schooled the young drivers…we would sit in the trees in turn one outside the track waiting for them to wreck in turn three or four ……then when all eyes were looking at that end of the track we would charge across the track into the pits…..that place made me a racing fanatic….not just a fan…..hearing Jimmy talking just brought all those great childhood memories flooding back…..
I really love listening to this show….
Thank you for all the hard work it takes to put this video out…
Side note my Dad was a Geoffrey Bodine fan….so I had to raze my dad and chose someone he hated….because Dale and Geoffrey were like water and oil…
That’s how I became a Dale Earnhardt Fan…. And then a Dale Jr. Fan….
Spencer would thrive in nascar now. Need a dozen more of him
We need a part 3 and 4 lol
Jimmy hasn’t aged a day
Hey I tell yall what one of my first paint schemes my dad did for me since I was 10 then..... the old #7 Sirius car from 03. Ran that online on the old papyrus nascar 2003 pc game for a while. 🤙 I always liked Spencer.
Best one so far guys.
