  • For the incontinent

    Best podcast to listen to if you want to learn about old men’s bladders. Not much insight if you want to hear about cars though.

    Fortunately I hate cars ever since I sold my Saab 9-5 Aero 14 years ago and instead took an interest in Depend Adult Undergarments.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

EP #004 Ben Jensen - This Ain't Grampa's truck
Q: How does sprint qualifying differ from regular qualifying on a race weekend?
Sprint qualifying is shortened and determines the starting order for the sprint race, which in turn affects the grid for the main race; the format includes the same basic structure (Q1, Q2, Q3) but with shorter session times.
EP #002 Shane O’Rourke… wait, you can’t drift a Volkswagen!?
Q: How did you get into drifting and what was your first build?
I started with VW basics, moved through a Mark III Jetta and other VWs, and progressively moved into drift setups, starting with mild angle kits and gradually adding everything needed to compete, driven by a mix of curiosity and community around the hobby.
EP #002 Shane O’Rourke… wait, you can’t drift a Volkswagen!?
Q: What is Drift New England?
It's a drifting-focused track project in New Hampshire with plans for a multi-track road course, aimed at giving the local community a dedicated place to drive and practice.
EP #005 Greg Tonseth - MK2s with 16Vs FTW
Q: Greg, how long have you been at Audi?
I've been at Audi for just over 11 years now.
EP #012 - Catching up on the last 2 weeks and questions from the listeners
Q: If you had to choose an American car to own pre-2010, what would it be?
The group brainstorms several options, including classic muscle and truck designs like Grand National and C10, ultimately emphasizing personal taste, nostalgia, and practicality rather than a single right pick.
