Dale Earnhardt Jr. takes a look into yesteryear of NASCAR as he sits down with prolific journalist Deb Williams. On the heels of winning the prestigious Squier-Hall Media Excellence Award, Deb continues to be a trailblazer in stock car racing, working the NASCAR beat year-round. She talks about growing up in a racing family, covering several breaking news stories outside of racing, and how she broke past the "no women in pits" barrier.

Since picking up her first media credential in 1980, Deb has witnessed a large array of changes to the sport, as well as milestones such as Richard Petty’s 200th win. Aside from her fascinating backstory, Dale and Deb discuss the state of the sport today, including the ongoing 23XI/NASCAR lawsuit, proposed changes to the Playoffs format, and criticism of the Next Gen car.
