And, while the race may have been ultimately washed out that night, the boys get into an informative and important conversation about the Richmond Circuit Court’s decision to order a Primary in Hermie’s nominating process for the 17th Virginia State Senate District, and then you have to listen when Senator Stanley steps out of the podcast in order to meet and greet the overflow crowd at the event, LRTL Podcast’s prior guests, Senator Bryce Reeves and Senator Bill Carrico, take over the show, and get into a great conversation with Hermie on what it takes to be a candidate in a tightly contested race, what it takes to stand up for and fight for rural Southside and Southwest Virginia values and win, and they even get Hermie to open up about his NASCAR® and Fox Sports® analyst career in ways we have never heard before!
Sadler and the Senator set up the podcast with their “Swear Bear,” Shep Moss this week in the Start/Finish tower at the front stretch of The Richmond International Raceway (RIR) for the Sadler/Stanley race watch party, where their drivers, NASCAR® Hall of Famer Bobby Labonte and NASCAR® Legend Ryan Newman were set to compete in the Whelen Open Modified Race Series.
