Champion crew chief Rodney Childers joins Davey Segal (6:25) on the heels of the sentimental weekend at Homestead-Miami Speedway, where he gave the command to fire engines. He details the moment with his family, why he didn’t have an Adam Sandler moment, gathering members from the 2014 championship team to reminisce, take photos and the No. 4 team’s up and down race on Sunday.

Childers also discusses his desire to give Kevin Harvick one more win in his final season, why their partnership has worked so well for so long, how 2024 preparations are coming along with his soon-to-be driver Josh Berry and recently eclipsing the 600 starts mark as a shot caller in the Cup Series.

Plus, his work with Layne Riggs and KHI Management on the late model side of things, why Michael Jordan’s continued presence at the track is beyond cool, what he thinks about the current landscape of the sport and more, including a fun story about Davey’s experience watching the No. 4 team win the 2014 championship.

Davey also discusses Christopher Bell’s clutch win at Homestead to vault himself into the Championship 4, the trouble for other JGR drivers, previews Martinsville and Papa Segal pays homage to another NASCAR Hall of Famer.
