#16: 16 Times Mater Was ROBBED of the ‘Cars’ Piston Cup
from Answer for It! · host Answer for It
While we do proudly hold the title of the world’s premier comedy trivia podcast (or at least that’s what our moms say) we're also hard at work, toiling away behind-the-scenes as the custodians of a groundbreaking, state of the art, Piston Cup archive. Not even the founding fathers of yesterday could've fathomed our turbocharged shrine to Ka-chow: a Library of Congress of high-octane lore, preserving the sacred history of animated 'Cars.' With a discerning eye, we’ve set out to document every Piston Cup winner of the last 76 years. Did you know that Junior “Midnight” Moon, winner of the 1958 Piston Cup, was the best friend of Doc Hudson, the car who trained Lightning McQueen? Sadly, he died in 2019. He was a 1940 Ford Standard Coupe. Subscribe and leave us a review -- it helps! New episodes every Tuesday.
