  • Awesome concept, my favorite podcast

    I started listening to this podcast over a year ago and I’ve got to say it’s one of a kind. I love cars but just have never really had the opportunity to learn about them or get any hands on experience. Because all the hosts are super knowledgeable and experienced I use this podcast as a learning tool for myself. It’s the closest someone can get to figuring out what’s wrong with their car without having it actually looked at by a mechanic. Thanks guys!
