Winning By Losing

11/16/2023
Hermie and the Senator have brought you along on their two-year journey of fighting government overreach and the power of the casino monopolies as they seek to control small business owners in the Commonwealth of Virginia in the emerging gaming industry. For two years, Sadler was successful in a court of law in overturning an unconstitutional law known as "SB 971," and continued to fight the government that was being influenced by big casino when they tried to change the law in order to ban "skill games" from being operated in small business convenience stores, truck stops, bars and restaurants, because the casinos that now operate in Virginia didn't want the competition. For two years, Sadler obtained an injunction that kept the skill games machines on -- and more importantly, kept these small businesses in business. This week, Sadler and his attorney, Senator Stanley went back to Court to further fight their "David v. Goliath" legal case -- and ran smack into a brick wall. Hear them discuss right after their hearing concluded exactly what went on in Court, why the fight against big government and big casinos is so important for every Virginian who believes in liberty and the free market system, and where they take their fight from the courthouse, to now the statehouse. Listen as the fellas tell how their lawsuit has awakened Virginians and their legislators to the need for small businesses to have a level playing field with big casino interests in the state's new gaming industry, and what they believe their chances are for ultimate success in getting the Virginia Legislature to pass a reasonable tax and regulation law that ends the "skill games ban" once and for all. One thing is for sure, these guys are fighters, and they will never give up when it comes to standing up for the little guys against governmental and corporate bullies.

Fate Can Determine Races

10/5/2023
This week, Sadler and The Senator -- but no Shep (as he possibly goes on strike for a second straight week in a futile demand for more wages for less effort, just like the Hollywood writers), dive into this week’s episode and talk about a whole host of things, from their joint field trip to what Stanley calls “Darwin’s Waiting Room” in criminal court, how the this November’s political races are shaping up in Virginia and in the nation and tilting towards Republicans in light of the recent major fumbles of Democrats during Virginia’s General Assembly campaign session, and they even discuss how Donald Trump’s current ongoing civil fraud trial in New York legal is affecting the upcoming 2024 Presidential contest. In the second segment, Hermie and Bill take you back to their Sadler/Stanley Racing Team’s effort on-site at the track for the SMART Modified Series race at the historic Pulaski Motorsports Park this past Sunday, and they sit down with SMART Race Director (and former NASCAR® Race Director) David Hoots and the “Poor Man’s Bill France” SMART Series owner Chris Williams to talk about the final four races of the series, and Hermie’s hilarious interactions with Hoots during the time when Hermie was a Cup car driver at a NASCAR® race at Charlotte Motor Speedway. Then the fun kicks into high gear when the “human enigma”-- the iconic, and the one-and-only Alan Joseph joins the show to talk about the fight for small businesses and skill games in Virginia’s burgeoning gambling industry, and he even recounts the famous moment when he actually ran himself owner with his own car! You cannot miss this classic exchange! And in the final segment, Sadler and The Senator recap the their Sadler/Stanley Race Team’s results on Saturday night in the NASCAR® Whelen Modified race at North Wilkesboro Speedway, and then on Sunday afternoon at the Pulaski Speedway SMART series race with their legendary drivers, Bobby Labonte and Ryan Newman. Tires went flat, race cars got spun out and hit the wall, engines blew up, and the fickle hand of fate determined the outcomes for their team at each race – but there was no quit in the Sadler/Stanley Race Team. So when Larry The Cable Guy tells you “these guys are good,” he means it, and this episode proves that Larry The Cable Guy is always right!

Then the fellas explore the recent “Factual Innocence” Pardon by Virginia Governor Glenn Youngkin of Senator Stanley’s client (in his other job as a trial attorney), Loudoun County father Scott Smith (and hero to all fathers everywhere), who was maliciously arrested for standing up to protect his daughter from a public school system that chose their radical transgender policies over the protection of his daughter after she was brutally raped in a high school woman’s bathroom by a boy that was wearing a skirt. And then the Senator, Sadler and the Shep rap up their compelling discussion with an update on Sadler’s ongoing lawsuit (with Senator Stanley as his attorney) for small businesses and against government unconstitutional overreach in the emerging gaming industry in Virginia.

Chasing Short Track Legend Peyton Sellers

8/21/2023
Leaning Right and Turning Left roars into the historic South Boston Speedway to catch up with Late Model Racing powerhouse Peyton Sellers! Listen as Peyton tells the boys about his journey in becoming a successful late model driver in the grass roots NASCAR Advance Auto Parts weekly series at local short tracks throughout Virginia, as well as his run for a record seventh championship at South Boston Speedway.

But first, you must listen to Hermie and the Senator roast America's favorite podcast side-kick Shep Moss on his sudden and unexpected retirement from being "Captain Chaos" on the South Hill Virginia Town Council. As always, Shep never disappoints in the funny as he defends himself from the onslaught of crap his two friends dish out for leaving his post, and the resulting whirlwind that it has now created in the local town government that he once ruled. Finally, the boys discuss their race team, Sadler/Stanley Racing, getting back on the track as the SMART series gets back to racing for the last two months of the 2023 open-wheel asphalt modified season with their race car driving superstars, two of NASCAR's top 75 drivers of all time, Bobby Labonte and recently crowned champion of the SRX Thursday Night Thunder Series, Ryan Newman!

Sounding the Horn on Allowing P*rn in Virginia!!!

8/10/2023
In the final episode of the LRTL "Lake Gaston Tapes," Hermie, Bill and one and only Shep Moss talk about Sen. Stanley's Bill SB 1515 (2023), which required that pornography websites that solicit a Virginia audience put a filter on its website to verify the age of the user and to protect children under the age of 18 from pornography on the internet. Listen as the guys discuss the specifics of this new law authored by Stanley, the horrible effects of pornography on children's growth into young adults, and the surprising reaction of the internet porn providers that decided to cease offering their website to people that live in Virginia, rather than comply with the law in order to protect children. Don't miss the part where Sadler, Shep and Stanley listen to and comment on a select few of the numerous and outrageous (and sometimes threatening) phone calls of protest by adults that the Senator received at his law office after the bill went into effect (warning: some of the language is strong). And make sure that you don't miss a guest appearance by the infamous "Plug Moore" in a hilarious conversation with the fellas!

Franklin County Shine

6/1/2023
Leaning Right and Turning Left roars into the historic Franklin County Speedway to document the SMART Tour Kenny Minter 110 modified race in Callaway, Virginia to start the 2023 Memorial Day Weekend, but unfortunately without their boy Hermie! Stanley goes solo without his good buddy Sadler (who was with his family watching his daughter play in the D-III softball play-offs for Randolph-Macon College Yellow Jackets), but the fast-acting Senator brings in the Southern Modified Tour owner Chris Williams to stunt-cohost the show! Listen as they have a passionate sit down with Matthew Dillner, Flo Racing Senior Racing Producer, and co-host of “Lost Speedways” with Dale Earnhart Jr., about the passion of short track racing in our rural areas, and why its history and preservation is so important to the fabric of America. Hermie and Bill brought their SS Racing team Modified race cars to the Senator’s home track, and a HUGE crowd came out to see their racers, two of NASCAR’s® 75 greatest drivers of all time, Bobby Labonte and Ryan Newman battle it out in an exciting and action-packed race. In the second segment, the Senator and Chris Williams re-cap the night’s race at Franklin County Speedway, and talk about the ambience around the track, the fast and great SMART Series race that was on the track, and even the shenanigans that may have occurred off the track. They also talk about their great success with the inaugural “SS Racing and SMART Tour Fan Zone” in appreciation of the tour fans and series sponsor, PACE O MATIC. And in the third segment, you must listen to an absolutely hilarious interview that Stanley and Williams have with three young modified racing fans, who give us their take on the Franklin County race, how much they love watching the SMART Modifieds at our local tracks, and they even recount a really funny moment after the race while they were sitting in the Pace O Matic SMART ride-along race car parked at the SMART/SSR Fan Zone.

The Diary of a Disruptor

5/25/2023
Following up with last week’s awesome sit-down with Hermie’s brother, NASCAR® great Elliott Sadler, this week’s episode of LRTL with Sadler and the Senator focuses on family issues, family values, and explores Hermie’s foray into the political arena and his experience as a regular citizen stepping forward to run for elected office. Listen as Sadler details the surprising fight that he must wage not just against his Republican primary opponent on the battlefield of ideas, but also his struggle against the “establishment” wing of his own party who think that Hermie, because he puts the people he hopes to represent ahead of party leadership, is “a Disruptor.” Hear how Senator Stanley defines the word, “disruptor,” how he thinks that politicians who put principles over politics is a good thing for our country’s future, and why he believes that the need for strong leaders (and not weak-kneed elitists) is needed more than ever in order to preserve our precious liberty and freedom. Hermie and Bill then discuss the serious injury that they believe is being inflicted upon women’s sports by the woke left’s trans-athlete effort, and they detail why they believe his primary opponent’s cavalier attitude towards the issue is so harmful for our young women who compete in athletics. The fellas finish up the podcast episode by discussing their favorite topics, racing, and the status of their successful lawsuit to protect small businesses in Virginia! They talk about their Southern open-wheel modified race team, SS Racing, and look forward to the upcoming SMART race at Franklin County Speedway on May 26th with their drivers Bobby Labonte and Ryan Newman, and the SMART Series / SS Racing Fan Zone that they are putting on to say a big “thank you” to both their car sponsor and the fans at the race on Friday night at the historic Callaway Virginia track.

Elliott Sadler Rules (The Sadler Brothers, Part Too)

5/17/2023
Part two of the Elliott Sadler Chronicles is finally here! Picking up from where we left off two episodes ago (“The Sadler Brothers, Part Won,” first aired May 4th), Hermie and the Senator dive right in to the life and times of NASCAR® great (and Hermie’s younger brother) Elliott Sadler. They jump right in with Elliott’s recollections of when he was, for a brief and shining moment, the “Mayor of Stuart Virginia” after his huge win at Bristol for the infamous Wood Brothers Racing Team in 2001, and then Elliott goes into great detail his journey as a driver in racing’s top series. Listen as Elliott details his time with some of the best NASCAR® race teams, dealing with the highs and lows that come with competing at the top level of sport, and what he ultimately learned from the political chaos that is NASCAR®. Hear when Elliott recounts what happened inside the #38 M&M’s Ford when it flipped over FIVE times at Talladega in 2003, and follow with him on the path of how his work ethic and “can do” spirit drove his career, leading him to become one of only 36 racers in NASCAR® history to have one win in each of NASCAR’s® top three series -- and being voted by the fans as the “Most Popular Driver” a record four times in the Xfinity Series. Elliott opens up with his brother Hermie about himself, their tight-knit racing family, and his quiet yet impactful life after his NASCAR® career back home in Emporia, Virginia. Hermie and his brother close out the show with great words of wisdom and sound advice when they discuss the real and important issues of life, like coaching kids in youth sports, and the challenges of being fathers in this crazy 21st century world.

They Think Protecting Our Kids is “Garbage”

5/10/2023
Join former NASCAR® driver and Fox Sports® analyst (or as he says in the opening, a former “Spox Forts Analyst”) Hermie Sadler along with his good buddy Virginia State Senator Bill Stanley as they dive into the important topic facing parents today -- protecting their children from the “woke” politicians who let men into women’s sports, into women’s bathrooms, and those who think that Senator Stanley’s ground-breaking bill (and soon to be new law in Virginia) to keep children from being exposed to pornography on the internet (SB 1515) is “stupid” and “garbage.” Read Senator Stanley’s monumental legislative victory for Virginia’s children here -- The Protection of Minors From Harmful Materials on the Internet Act! -- LIS > Bill Tracking > SB1515 > 2023 session (virginia.gov) . And make sure that you give a listen as Sadler and the Senator defend the common-sense notion that parents rights are paramount in determining the direction of their sons’ and daughters’ upbringing. You will be riveted to the podcast as you get to hear certain elected Virginia politicians actually tell you, in their words, that protecting children is “garbage,” and “ridiculous nonsense.” Seriously, we are not kidding. And, for our growing Shep Moss following, he didn’t make it to this podcast episode because he is, once again, vacationing……But Hermie and Bill promise that even without the Shepper, you will still love listening to this episode, just like Larry The Cable Guy says!
