Host Brandon Contes interviews legendary Fox NASCAR play-by-play commentator Mike Joy. Brandon and Mike discuss a wide range...
"They went completely dark on us. We knew something bad had happened."
"It's the toughest thing you do in sports broadcasting, having to turn that corner from broadcasting a sports event to being at the center of a news story like that."
"It's really cool to see how kind of each person authors their opportunity to talk about the race and the competition."
"The great thing is that instead of these cars just sitting in a dusty museum, somewhere, the fans get to come out and see them where they belong, on a track and running at full song."

Joy has been calling NASCAR for Fox since 2001, and will be working his 43rd Daytona overall Sunday. He said the race is highly different each year though.
