It’s no doubt that Dale Earnhardt Jr. is one of the most popular voices in NASCAR. His extensive podcast network under Dirty Mo Media is because Junior knows what’s he talking about and it’s no surprise. He’s been in the sport since he was a kid. Literally grew up in the shadow of his legendary father, Dale Earnhardt Sr.

So when Dale Jr. speaks, people listen! But that dynamic changes when he shuts that mic and goes home. The conversation is no longer about NASCAR and the audience is not his eager fans. It’s Amy Earnhardt! And recently, she shared some juicy details about how they handle their spats.

Dale Earnhardt Jr. is often on the losing side!

Now, we all know that what happens between couples is usually a private matter, but let’s be real. When you’re a public figure like Dale Jr., some stuff tends to spill out. And the Earnhardt’s dynamic? Yeah, that’s a bit of an open book.

Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s podcast, ‘Dale Jr. Download’, is pretty much a behind-the-scenes look at his life, so it’s no surprise that Amy’s made plenty of guest appearances. And let’s just say, a lot of beans have been spilled over the years.

Take, for example, their famous argument over who spends more time on Instagram. Turns out, they were both equally addicted! After some back and forth, they agreed to a 30-minute social media cap. (Not sure if that rule still stands, but it’s a pretty cute example of how they work through things.)

But recently, on the Kenny Wallace Show, Amy let us in on some more details about how they really work through disagreements. She said, “When we go through processes like that we actually don’t fight. We’re pretty good. I don’t know what that is. If we’re working through something real versus just us fighting because we’re in bad moods, it’s easy to work through it.”

However, Amy quickly revealed that when things do get heated, it’s usually her who makes the first move. “When he and I get fussy with each other it’s usually me going to him,” she explained. “He’ll just get quiet and ignore me until I… even if he’s the one that’s wrong, which I’m gonna go out on a limb and say it’s 75-25.” Wait, 75-25? What does that mean? Well, Amy says it’s because Dale Jr. is “scared.”

Kenny Wallace, trying to wrap his head around this, joked, “Junior respects you so much that he’s a little afraid to battle you. I love this.” To which Amy laughingly responded, “As he should be.”

So, it seems like when it comes to arguments in the Earnhardt household, Amy’s the one who usually wins—at least in her eyes. And Wallace? He totally gets it because, let’s face it, it sounds pretty familiar.

Who wins in the Wallace house?

Now, Kenny Wallace might not have as much to say in his own arguments, but he definitely gets the whole dynamic. Sharing a little bit about his 40-year marriage to childhood sweetheart Kim, he said, “My wife says she’s perfect.”

And honestly, Wallace gets it. He’s been with Kim since high school, and after more than four decades of marriage, he knows who’s really in charge. “Well, there’s a book from years ago called Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus—something like that. So we’re different. It’s amazing we can stay together,” he laughed. “I’d probably be dead without Kim. I’m hyperactive and crazy, but I know what’s up.”

Even though Wallace might lose most of the arguments, there’s no doubt that he respects the heck out of Kim—and he’s fully aware that she’s the glue holding everything together.

And while Kim doesn’t often make appearances on Kenny’s show, we do know that she’s a businesswoman with a love for the casino. In fact, for her most recent birthday, Kenny treated her to a night out at the casino. “She’s a gambling junkie,” Kenny had said with a grin. “We’re going to take her down to the casino tonight. Going to have dinner, give her some money, and watch her play on those slots. That’s her dream birthday.”

So, whether you’re a Dale Jr. or a Kenny Wallace, it’s clear that relationships aren’t always about who’s “right” or “wrong” but about mutual respect and maybe a little fear. (Okay, maybe a lot!)
