On this episode of Bringing the Heat with Bryan Nolen, Stephen Stumpf talks with NASCAR Xfinity Series driver Justin Allgaier. They discuss Allgaier’s relationship with crew chief Jim Pohlman, his reaction to the 2025 Xfinity schedule (which includes a return to his home track, World Wide Technology Raceway at Gateway) and his thoughts on up-and-coming teammates Carson Kvapil and Connor Zilisch.

After the Allgaier conversation, Nolen and Stumpf react to Chase Briscoe‘s win in the Southern 500 in the NASCAR Cup Series. Plus, they talk about the latest headlines in NASCAR, which includes the latest on the charter deal, Martin Truex Jr. going to run the Daytona 500 in 2025 with his former crew chief Cole Pearn and other news and notes from NASCAR playoffs media day.

For the Soundbite of the Week, Nolen and Stumpf praise Corey LaJoie and assess his future after hearing his post-race comments after his ninth-place finish last weekend at Darlington Raceway.

The show wraps up with Stumpf highlighting how good Tyler Reddick‘s season has been, leading to winning the regular-season championship. Nolen discusses how Bubba Wallace missing the playoffs is the biggest disappointment and that he will need to deliver results soon.
