Acclaimed motorsports journalist and commentator Dave Despain will have NASCAR star Joey Logano as his special guest at 8:30 p.m. EST Sunday, December 18, when the Dave Despain Show returns for its third season on MAVTV.

Logano, who drives the No. 22 Ford for Team Penske, had a strong 2016 season. He won four times, including a victory in the All-Star race, and finished second in this year's NASCAR Sprint Cup Series championship. The 26-year-old from Connecticut is eager to jump back into the race car in 2017.

Despain is a long-time observer of motorsports in America. From motorcycles to midgets, Top Fuel to Stock Cars, from dirt to pavement, Despain has seen and described it all with a passion and a reverence unmatched in motorsports broadcasting today.

"I've never found anything in my life that is more fun and easier to be passionate about than racing." Despain said about his history with motorsports

The Dave Despain Show continues a series of 30-minute programs in which Dave sits down each week with a racing legend, team owner or talented newcomer and asks the probing questions that often get wry and revealing answers – thereby giving the viewers a closer and more personal look at their on-track heroes.
