  • Great lowrider/ model car podcast

    The podcast is a great way to listen to artists discussing the creative process as well as news and building tips. I can’t recommend this show enough for those building scale model cars and improving those skills. I’d listen to the entire back catalog if I could and I look forward to each new episode.
