Our first guest episode is here! On this episode we welcome November Kelly of No Gods, No Mayors, Trashfuture, Well There's Your Problem, and Kill James Bond! In this episode, Victoria gets a crash-course in who Lewis Hamilton's new girlfriend Kim Kardashian is, our hosts attempt to process the knowledge that Jeffrey Epstein couldn't successfully import a Toyota Century, we collectively try to untangle the mess of British masculinity that is Top Gear, and the two of us make November rank every single Bond car on a scale of 1-1,000,000.

This is a very loose episode, but it was extremely fun and we hope you enjoy! Thank you so much to November for joining us. Our first bonus episode will be coming next week, as well!

Hello! In this episode (which is not a 1.3GB .wav file this time!) we realize we accidentally became Important at Work and now lots of people want to listen to us. Luckily, the universe bestowed us with an incredible piece of Content for episode two: The America250 Grand Prix of Washington D.C. (in the middle of August!) Also, we discuss the end of Tesla's Model S and X, the end of the Santa Cruz, and run through the Indycar calendar to decide which races are actually still worth going to.

New intro music is 'oops i did too much k while listening to toby fox on repeat' off stella spazzatura's album Horse Tranquilizer Simulator, which you can find on Bandcamp!

Jordan & I have decided we're going to try and make this a Wednesdays-show with a bonus episode for Patreon subs, btw. No worries if you can't afford a sub, you will still get plenty of us.

Hello!

Here is my attempt at a podcast with my good friend Jordan Hoffstetter! The premise: two car journalists who want to stop loving cars but can't make themselves stop. In this episode we lay out our premise, discuss the challenges of car enthusiasm in 2026 (HINT HINT IT'S MOSTLY THE DECLINE OF EMPIRE AND LATE CAPITALISM), and talk about how Jerome Powell making a hostage video bodes poorly for The Automotive Industry.

As an aside, I'm working on getting these on Spotify and Apple Podcasts still; please bear with me while I try and figure it out!
