08.13.23 (MP3): Plate Cameras, Robot Cars & Non-Destructive Creative Civil Disobedience (NDCCD), Don’t Leave Babies in Cars (Tech Can’t Save You from Darwin), Battery Vehicle Bankruptsy, Exploding Houses, Hurricane Hillarious, & Close Your Damn Garage
...Got a lot of respect for Darwin’s capability to wipe out bad batches of genes from the people stew that is humanity, but let’s stop making kids in hot cars take the brunt of it. Meanwhile, back at the garage, how about some gearhead civil disobedience? You’re no pepperoni-armed hipster antifa weenie, so keep it non-destrictive like MLK Jr. said we should. Plate cams, robot cars and bad bureaucracy are a great place to start: unplug something; cover something; aim something at a wall; drop a traffic cone in front of something - show how bad or stupid or insidious something is without destroying it. More goodness: Funyons versus coffee, Hillary’s SoCal fail (less rain than January), IRS agents with guns, new homes on old mines (wicked ultra KAPOW, folks), Bud versus Busch, Maui’s firebug problem, electric busses go bankrupt because they only do politics, and another electric F-150 function flop. |

08.03.23 (MP3): What the Hail? Can You Defend Your Daily Driver from Doom in the Sky w/ Hail “Proof” Car Covers? Options, Types & Homemade Jobs, + Ford F-150 Recalls (Just a Million), & Exploding Cancer Vehicles from the E.P.A. (...Not On Our Side)
Join the Garage Hour goons and say “Hail No!” to your cars and trucks looking like you left them parked at the receiving end of a driving range. Jus because it’s summer and you live in a town that’s prone to the big icy agony-inducing airborne projectiles known as HAIL doesn’t mean you have to live with dents and dings and the sneering sideways glances from your dentless neighbors. We’ve got ideas and solutions: homemade, inexpensive, effective, available, inflatable, hand-me-down and hard to assemble. Also, this episode’s got OE recalls (F-150 e-brakes engaging when they feel like it), Porsche insulting Christianity but pretending days of editing was an “error”, the E.P.A. approving additives for gas that cause cancer in EVERYTHING (government isn’t on your side), and why Ohio and Indiana letting HAL 9000 drive their semis. ...And sorry about the delayed upload - too much to-doing in Earning a Livingland. More: Rev. Heat versus Liberace, barn haters, baloney sandwiches, and gambling with music (like Horton Heat, A.F.I., Ministry, Wellwater Conspiracy, Metallica, Sugar Ray, Living Colour, Luscious Jackson and 16-Volt). |
