This One Meant More

Denny Hamlin is back after his 60th career Cup Series victory for another episode of Actions Detrimental. He’s joined by co-host Jared Allen and producer Travis Rockhold to break down the events from his milestone win in Las Vegas. Denny opens up about why he was unsure of himself going into the race, his emotions after winning, and his appreciation for the fans. Plus, what advantage does he gain by locking himself into the Champ 4. Not only do they discuss what got the No. 11 team locked into the Champ 4, they also talk about what might keep other Playoff drivers out of it. From Ryan Blaney’s early exit after a left-front tire failure sent him into the wall to William Byron's late-race collision with Ty Dillon and his near miss with Ty Gibbs, Denny covers it all — from the drama and the strategy to what’s next heading into Phoenix.

Wasn’t a Denny fan until I started listening to this podcast. I totally expected you to take some time before doing this episode. What grace, humility, self introspection, team leader, friend, father husband and son you demonstrated throughout the episode! You are a true Champion in my eyes on all the important things in life- glad to be a fan
I Got Cut!

Denny and Jared, Don’t know what happened, but I’ve been writing reviews for years since the podcasts started. Not every week, but many. One was actually read on the air at the end of season 2024. I wrote a heart felt review just minutes after the end of season 2025. It disappeared. Not only that review but my entire thread. I’ve been erased. Today’s review has me starting from scratch. I’ve been a Denny fan from the beginning of his NASCAR run. I’ve been a fan of this podcast from episode one. I appreciate all of Jared’s tough questions, don’t stop. The review that got cut was uplifting, supportive and true. Just sorry no one got to read it but me.
NASCAR needs Denny

Fans with Brains

More than Denny needs NASCAR. Because Shohei Ohtani doesn't play banana ball. The best competitors and athletes do not gravitate towards sports that reward gimmicks over talent and effort. NASCAR is slowly trending more toward banana ball than competition. If you listen to this podcast from start til now. You'll realize that in 99.9% of what has been said on here, Denny has been right. Most of us are tired of 27 GWC, win and you're in, half throttle giant wrecks at superspeedways. And especially 1 race playoffs. Which is NOT a game 7 moment. It's a coin flip of circumstances. So, Denny. You've done all you can for this sport. I guess what remains to be seen is if the brass can get their heads outta their........
So close

I’ve been a NASCAR fan my whole life. Although I was never really an 11 fan, I’ve never missed an episode of Actions Detrimental. Over the years of listening to the show it has changed who I root for on Sundays. It was heartbreaking on Sunday when you missed out on the championship. I hope you know how important your show is for all of us converted 11 fans. Thank you so much for the insight each and every week! I can’t wait for the next episode.
