[Joey holds up his ring finger]

Look at that right there. Yes, I am happily married to my lovely, smokin’ hot wife.

Is Ryan Blaney sponsored by Pennzoil?

[Ryan is wearing a Pennzoil T-shirt]

I just really like their shirts.

Ryan Blaney approved

[Arrow points to Ryan’s shirt]

[Background echo of: Pennzoil…I just really like their shirts.]

 

[Joey]

What do Nascar drivers eat?

[Ryan]

Um…children?

[Sound of a child’s whimper. Background buzzer noise indicating his answer is wrong]

[Image of a giant red X]

Raw animals?

[Buzzer noise, another X]

Garbage?

[Buzzer noise, three X’s]

[Ryan laughs]

 

[Joey]

Does Joey Logano use Pennzoil?

Duh.

[Points to his shirt. Image appears of him celebrating a win with a massive bottle of Pennzoil in his hands]

Hello! Yes!

[He sweeps his finger twice across the Pennzoil logo on his shirt]

 

[Ryan]

What is Ryan Blaney’s biggest pet peeve?

Uh, I hate being hot when I sleep. No matter where it is, it’s gotta be like 66 or below.

[Image and sound of a wall thermostat as the temperature rapidly drops down to 66]

 

[Joey]

Are Nascar drivers funny?

[Ryan]

I don’t think we’re funny at all. I think we’re robots.

[Ryan’s jaw becomes robot-like and moves up and down. Lasers shoot from his eyes.]

[Joey]

Some are. Some are real funny. Some are not funny at all, actually.

[Background noise of audience going awwww.]

 

[Ryan]

Does Ryan Blaney have tattoos?

I do…[nods].

[Image of Ryan in a tattoo artist’s chair. Ryan’s chest is covered in tattoos, and he’s getting another tat.]

That’s all you need to know.

 

[Joey]

Is Joey Logano good?

Driving a race car? I’d say pretty good.

[Sound of a checkmark going ding. Image of Joey in his race suit, holding up a giant #1 finger, a large green checkmark over the image]

Cooking? Meh.

[Image of Joey with a chef’s hat on, sprinkling spices in a large pan. Large yellow horizontal stripe crosses out the picture.]

Any other athletic things? Probably not as good.

Who is going to win the Pennzoil 400?

[Joey]

If history repeats itself…

This guy

 

[Ryan]

Do Nascar drivers get dizzy?

Not on the racetrack, no…I don’t think so.

[Joey]

No, I get dizzy if you put me in that teacup ride, or something like that at the fair, yeah, I get dizzy.

[Animated sequence]

[Stars move in a circle around Joey’s head. Sounds of birds tweeting.]

That’s not my deal. I don’t like that.

[Ryan]

That’s a pretty common misconception. I get asked that a lot.

 

[Joey]

Who is Joey Logano’s favorite driver?

So I can’t say anyone I race against today cuz let’s be honest…I don’t like anybody I race against today. I wanna beat ’em.

[Background music]

[Cool hip-hop]

[Animated sequence]

[Black sunglasses swing down next to Joey’s head and cover his eyes. His head goes poof and appears to explode.]

[Joey laughs]

[Sound of a bleeped cuss word.]

 

[Joey]

Does the Pennzoil 400 have a trophy?

Well…

[Looks to either side of himself, where two Pennzoil 400 trophies are displayed. Slot machine winning sound plays. He then looks straight back at the camera.]

[Coleman Pressley]

Move him out of the way!

You know, Joey…I think we’d be faster choosing the bottom.

 

[Background music changes to a disco-type beat]

[Coleman Pressley]
