  2. 0018 - No Notes, Just Rollerblades

  5. 0015 - Sold: 2020 Podcast, Only 24 Miles, $Infinity

    On this episode of the podcast, the team provides some critical advice on how to best construct your automotive portfolio and definitely doesn't yell for an hour about low-mileage Bring a Trailer sales. Probably. Also, even less yelling about the "built not bought" philosophy. Trust in the…

  6. 0014 - A Show About Nothing

    Full disclosure, Trustees (we're trying that out this week, please bear with us): on occasion, we don't do the required reading. So, if you want to know what sixty-four minutes sounds like with three hosts who each did exactly zero homework in the moments leading up to recording, well, here is…

  7. 0013 - Electric Hot Rod Tech Support

    Good news everyone: we have fought with The Technology and emerged victorious and with our historic victory comes our first guest episode!

  8. 0012 - My Fairlady

    In this episode, the team reckons with the true meaning of the Datsun/Nissan Z from it's mustachioed past to it's less-uncertain-than-yesterday future.

  9. 0011 - Concept Cars

    On this episode of the podcast, there was one more question from our Q&A that we wanted to set aside some time to discuss, from @TechnoAddy: “If y’all could own any concept car in fully functional form, which one would you pick and why?” This question could've run through two episodes, but we cut...

  10. 0010 - Questions But Also Sometimes Answers II

    Folks: here is Part II of our inaugural Q&A episode. Do things get further off the rails? Do we completely lose track of where we are? Do the last 10 questions take a solid hour to get through? The answer to all of these questions lies behind that little triangle shaped Play button somewhere on...

  11. 0010 - Questions But Also Sometimes Answers I

    Folks, against better judgement and increasingly under the influence of confidence-inspiring libations, we got through what I think are 100% of the questions y'all threw our way. Frankly y'all did a remarkable job asking questions, and we very much look forward to making this a regular deal. Stay...

  12. 0009 - Dr. Goodwrench (or, how I learned to stop worrying and love the mods)

    On this episode of the podcast, Toni regales a harrowing week and the gang discusses how to best spend thousands of dollars to make a car less worse, sometimes. Trust in the Machine, y'all.

  13. 0008 - The Keinnonball Run

    Soak in some sweet, sweet video game nostalgia right up until someone mentions Mission 34 and then stick around while the gang tries to mathematically work out whether it’s possible to break a single municipal, state, or federal law while driving kei cars on a cross-country adventure. Trust in…

  14. 0007 - Collecting Cars

    0007 - Collecting Cars What happens when three hosts find the single free hour late on a Thursday night during an otherwise absurd week to pontificate on the cultural and psychological factors that drive otherwise ordinary people to collect two-ton marvels of modern mass production? Personally, I...

  15. 0006 - The Ginuwine Article: Pony Cars

    Folks: we made it through an hour without a single "Pony" reference and only one nod to Megan thee Stallion, our apologies for the lack of effort on both fronts. It's an episode about pony cars, so naturally we talk about the new BMW 7 Series, hockey dads, and how to disappoint Kentuckian…

  16. 0005 - Group Drives

    Upon returning from an expedition to the Great North American West, Neal regales the gang with tales of exploration and camaraderie. Also, how to buy a $400 Volvo in Michigan and fall in love with someone you find in your Corvette for an extended period of time. Trust in the Machine, y'all.

  17. 0004 - It Takes Three to Twingo

    On this episode, once the team moves past some unnecessary Bronco slander, they get into a discussion about what makes a half-decent, occasionally non-stationary daily driver. It's Thursday, internet friends - let's talk about The Cars. Trust in the Machine, y'all.

  18. 0003 - The Great Macan Debate

  19. 0002 - Garage Space

    On this episode of the podcast, the team discusses garage space. Come for the familiar reminiscing of apartment parking lot maladies, stick around for the sovereign declaration of a Utopian garage-based commune in rural Colorado. Never sleep on the ThaiJZ car scene. Trust in the Machine, y'all.

  20. 0001 - Toni Buys a Honda

    On the inaugural episode of the podcast, Toni purchases a $700 Honda CRX approximately one minute prior to us hitting record, so we take some time to unpack both the purchase and the unmitigated brilliance of Bubble Era Hondas. This is somehow not sponsored content from Honda North America,...
