Hank Watson's Garage Hour Podcast

...Because driving ain't about being able to afford a car, and being skilled ain't because you showed up - motoring fails are not what you think, but you should have thought of that.  The Garage Hour goon squad - with Mr. Intolerant and Hostus Maximus Justin Fort - does a little dance with why car accidents are up, and the whys aren't what they were (ahem, the road is in the real world). While we're at it, there's cat versus squirrel (the cat lost), FJs in Ramona, street racing in the 'Springs, Hank Hill versus Homer Simpson, and Cut Chemist.

Want to do your thing, and geek out on fast cars, fine beer, crawly trucks and bangy guns?  Like doing stuff that's not "approved" by the woketards?  If you don't stand up for your right to do your thing, "your thing" could go from "out there" to "illegal" under cover of the Trojan corpse in the White House and his band of unmoored zealots.  To borrow a term, it's time to fight for your right to party (however you do so).  The Gearhead Consultancy took a few minutes to help understand why bad (Big) gov't is wrong - and will take away your rights. You should be mad.  The idiots in DC want breathalyzers in all cars, are desperate to track you wherever you go, and to ban you from taking your car to the track.  It's time to geek up and start punching back.

Nothing like climbing into a little history, especially when it's the great Japanese and USDM stuff from the late '80s and '90s. You name it - CRX, EF, EG and EK, S-13 and S-14, good seats and bad grounds, cotton and foam intakes, STILLEN, RNC, Jackson, HKS, Road & Track, Flyin' Miata, GTR, NSX, VQ, 350 and 370Z, fart pipes and blow-offs, 1J and 2JZ, straight fours and sixes, FJ40s and 80s, and whatever else we come up with. Meanwhile, the Garage Hour breaks in some new meat with the introduction of Mr. Intolerant, plus sips of What It Is kolsch and Dark Cherry Seltzer from Trinity Brewing.

The answer is "crap!" Geeks ain't fooled by a thin logic, and Hostus Maximus Justin Fort goes late-night weirdsauce (and possibly some other places) on the safety fraud that DRLs have become. Because there's always situational affects, there's also a look at good running lights on semis and bikes, lane-spltting, single DRLs and marker lights, and a little on why "automatic" headlights are not very. Just to keep things super, there's also self-driving canolis, sharpies, plastics, skillsetting the sheep, hydration, and Han shot first.

From green lawns versus gravel yards (cop-out) to the human question of whether you're less of one if your car is more man than you, the Garage Hour doesn't phone it in. We've got the real-world impact of folks who can't figure out how their headlights work (uhhh, taillights are good), plus a hard look at the new trend for the victims of Tesla's robot-drive auto-wash self-steering crashes to sue from outside the restrictive NDAs that the company puts on its consumers. Then it's all beers and rock and roll and space-phalluses. Fatso Jetson, KMFDM, Ministry, Dog Fashion Disco, Blazing Haley, Bjork, Black Label Society, Cabbage Boy and Hum join in, because awesome.

Let's do the thing - great rock (QOTSA all day), great crashes (who needed that yacht), earth-shaking stamping mills, loads of government graft on the back of fraudulent electric transit unicorn farts, the mystery of disappearing nuke plants, and 'You Can't Quit Me Baby". While we're at it: Gillig Phantoms, dump trucks, sinkholes, Arby's, Miata VS Mustang, and if you know what you're doing, why can't you do it?

Down in the lab... It's a 1% battery episode: Hostus Maximus Justin Fort's tank was on empty for this one, but somehow a good think-piece happened.  There's reports on the health of our Second Amendment (w/ improvements!), cannon building versus cannon owning, money-making schemes from the Asterisk administration, and being the 2A every day. Surprises: Joke Biden was wrong again, arm braces brace your arms, scary features are not scary, the Dems want to keep you fearful, cactus needles hurt your face, and it's not Indiana's fault, Chicago.

PPIHC 2021 is in the books, and the Garage Hour goons were in the mix (George's, baby!). From early on the hill to fine sips afterwards (plus a little racing), we were in it and we have tales to tell.  Drivers?  Shute, Dallenbach, Dumas, Millen, Astier, Vasholtz, Schrantz, Donahue, Clay, Pobst and 100 more.  Cars?  LMPs, sprinters, stockers, Trans-Am, Cadillac, Porsche, BMW, Bentley, Camaro and Mustang, plus zip-ties, downforce and turbochargers.  So many turbos. Because racecar, there's more: Engineers, Bottomless and Boulder Park, Contagion, Deep Purple, Eagles of Death Metal and Gruntruck.  Oh yeah, and beer.

Four hours of mixing better be worth a nut - the Garage Hour captured a truckload of mamma's muffins during practice and testing at the PPIHC, and spliced the sexiest sounding road-racey bits into this episode.  There's tales of awesome from George's, Double-Cut and Cog, with Millen(s), Donahue, Becker, Crouch, Vasholtz, Gogelein, Wickstrum, Dallenbach, Strauch and Fouch. There's also hotter plugs, the smell of coolant, more Amon Tobin (Chaos Theory by popular demand, yous!), and the death of the Blue Yeti (time for the yetipult).

The Garage Hour asks: is your kid gun-safe?  Borne of a perfect rant that took shape in the garadtch and made it all the way to the mic, we went for broke on 2A goodness and wound up with a whole episode. There's also details of Texas' embrace of "Constitutional carry", the court's arsing of Kalifornistan's "assault" weapon ban, an ammo company's feelings on Biden voters, and, oh yeah, 7,000,000 Aguila bullets stolen by Mexican cartels. Props to Breitbart and Gateway Pundit for the copious coverage...  Also starring Tigger (springs in my butt), racecars (because), The Precious (10mm), Funyons, the Federalist Papers, the Blue mic fails, and truckloads of Amon Tobin.
