11.11.22 (MP3): Rooftop Tents & Carriers are Car Abuse! Also, Jay Leno's Burns (and Gearhead Legitimacy), Carvana's Pending Flop (Used Car Lots Need Used Cars & Shoppers), Are Electric Vehicles Stealing Your Money?, + Herbie Hancock & Echo w/ Bunnymen
Yummmm, segminty. Good stuff: The crap you bolt on your roof is a legitimate threat to your vehicle - wear and tear, fluid abuse and suspension decrepitation. Serious gearhead Jay Leno is saved from reallllllly bad burns by friends in his garatch. Carvana is choking on the reality of artificial pressures on capitalism ala Kung Flu. European Union bureaucrats are still pretending they can drive a unicorn fart to work (or: Thatcher and Friedman are still right). More good stuff: the pending prepping episode (and an upcoming Dude Food special), 10-year old Stagg chili and "expiration" dates, honey is also yummy (and good for what ails you), pork roast and a crock pot, and less "elite" but more "efite". |

You can't get this kind of awesomeness without a warrant (or a prescription). This Garage Hour does geek right, with a firearm-friendly amendment in Iowa, big AM-talk in San Diego (board-ops, fer shur), the risk science poses to senseless sinners, why New Yorkers are scared shedless of chintzy scooters from pinko China (apartment flambé, anyone?), and why Kevin Bacon can't hold a candle to our "Two Degrees from a Cutlass" theory. There's also some reminiscence about a client with a private dirt-oval, and an exposé of what happens to your skillset when the electro-nannies start doing your legwork. But wait! the Gearhead Consultancy also explains the "Drowning Man" theory, and we take a look at how the thugly F.B.I. is taking a rope to the progenitor of Dreamland Resort (.com) and his affection for Area 51. There's also Machines of Loving Grace, Goatsnake, St. Vitus, Five Horse Johnson, Primus and Air. |

11.02.22 (MP3): Sneaky Cars w/ Jets, Hurricanes Making Electric Cars Explode (& Burn Down Your House), Why Round-Abouts Are Killing People, Parking Outside for Hail & Profit, Vehicle Dynamics and Building That Tool, + Probably Better Not to Make Girls Cry
It's another pile of gearhead supersauce. ...Learning to read vehicle dynamics and understand where your car's "squish" is (and some thoughts on how to tune that thing so it goes left and right right). ...How Occum's Razor applies to traffic "circles" (the illustrious round-about, another thing that should have stayed in England) and why people keep dying on them. ...The basic math of salt water + electric components + vacuous elites ("elite" at what, exactly?) = car goes BOOM and house goes FLOOM. Also, a little bit of detail on how Kalifornistan has turned on Tesla (they can only take away what they gave you). Have some: Zach Wilde, Anthrax, drunk Jim Bowie, the Cadillac Eldorado, and RIP Dietrich Mateschitz. |
