BTLS | 7AM Tue. May 26 - Kurt Morgan's Sprint Car Silver, Indy 500's Insane Photo Finish & Emotional Kyle Busch Tribute
Podcast: Bubba the Love Sponge® ShowRating: Explicit Published On: Wed May 27 2026
Description: The Bubba the Love Sponge® Show celebrates Kurt Morgan (Candle's stepfather) and his Morgan Exteriors empire, which grew from storm cleanup to a multimillion-dollar home services company offering windows, kitchens, and bathrooms, as a major sponsor. Kurt's No. 14 sprint car finished second at the Little 500 in Anderson, Indiana, while he jets around the country with his 410 asphalt sprint car after stepping back from daily operations. Hosts break down one of the greatest Indy 500 finishes ever: Rosenquist executed a final-lap outside pass at roughly 230 mph using slingshot draft mechanics, staying inches from the lead car and overtaking in the final yards during a one-lap shootout. Technical deep dive covers IndyCar's sealed leased engines from Chevy or Honda costing $1.5 to $2 million per year with manufacturer-controlled adjustments and telemetry-based warranties, plus side-drafting tactics, clean air downforce advantages, and high-speed risks where lifting causes weight transfer and rear slides while marbles off the racing groove kill grip like wet grass. Heart-wrenching tribute moments: Kurt Busch laid eight flowers for his late brother Kyle Busch before the race, NASCAR president Steve O'Donnell offered support to Samantha and Brexton, taps played during the ceremony, and a lap 18 scoring tower tribute had hosts in tears. Gary Cantrell drove 10 hours for a Tuesday-to-Sunday visit with a log cabin tour featuring high ceilings, a large kitchen, and joking references to personal spaces. Alex Stein's TikTok reveals a Miami date night with a new romantic interest, hitting Taco Bell, McDonald's, and 7-Eleven for pizza, marking his first on-camera acknowledgment of a relationship.
