Dean Case and the Miata

Dean Case was a junior engineer at Mazda R&D when the Miata was developed. We discuss his career, the history of the Miata, and the connection to a Taco Bell Test Kitchen. (Bob Hall is the true father of the Miata.) In Cultural Collision, Misty wants to talk about Miatas in Film. (And who knew the Teletubbies drove a British Racing Green Miata?) Ben Takes a (Surreal) Moment to reflect on ice cream trucks. Should they play Helter Skelter? Dave and Misty debate launching Lobster Thermador and canned spam from a trunk-mounted tee-shirt gun. And in Grand Trivia Auto, we learn what made Chrysler's mid-sixties slant-sixes so unique. We welcome your support via Patreon and your questions and feedback via our website.
