Very sad to learn of Ned Jarrett's passing, a champion driver, broadcast analyst and storyteller. He and Barney Hall were the mainstays of MRN when I joined, and we later partnered at CBS-TV.
I learned so much from him... about racing, broadcasting, and about life. Our daughter's middle name is Jarrett honoring Ned and Martha.
He was the best of role models, and a wonderful friend. Condolences to Glenn, Dale, Patti and their families.
My friend @stevewaid is under the weather and won't be on the podcast this week. At this point, we're not quite sure when he might be able to return.
Say a prayer for ol' Steve.
One of NASCAR's last moonshiners. ๐๐ผ
