S12 Ep 1704.22.22 (MP3): Road-Run to 4Runners - Colorado Cars, Truculent Traffuckery, Freeway Logic (Faster Roads in SoCal & the Front Range), Excessive Roof-Rackism, the Return of Traffic Elitists, + Breckenridge Brewery, the Beer Fort & a Kia Forte
Wellll... It should be no surprise that wading waist-deep into mid-day traffic for a Colorado hot lap might plunge the Garage Hour into some of the usual left-lane snobs, inattentive Audis, sloppy Subarus, tuned-out tail-gaters and just a few intrepid truckers. This is a classic on-the-road snapshot, including a parachute job by The Craig, an old friend of the show and used-car expert. While we're at it, how about analysis of a very beat third-gen 4Runner (probably not worth $5000), and a little more of what you like best: Hostus Maxiums Justin Fort yelling at lousy motorists.

S12 Ep 1604.04.22 (MP3): NASCAR Fights & Airport Robots, Texan Troopers VS Mexican Semis, Electric Car Brownouts, Ethanol Gas Fails, Municipal Attacks on Constitutional Rights, + the Terrible & Fiery Death of Many Nails, Drill Bits & 2x4s
Even the fist-fights between millenial race-car drivers suck - what we'd give for the good old days when Cale Yarborough beat up the whole Allison family, or Boris Said "teaching 'em a lesson..." Whatevs - the Garage Hour will keep reminding you what good looks like. Then we'll tell you about Texas reminding Mexican truckers who's in charge, and why amoral and compassionless robots ain't here to help (and will probably hurt). Then again, it could be worse - just move to Denver, where they want to disarm law-abiding citizens, or Kalifornistan, where they don't make enough electricity to top off the ego in your electric status-symbol.

S12 Ep 1504.02.22 (MP3): Dark:30 Gearhead Brain - Slashing Tires & Burning Cars Doesn't Make Your Point, Jumping Teslas Ain't Brainful, Chernobyl Is No Sandbox, Missing Chips Isn't Just a Parts Problem, Horse Fear of Fat Folks, + 3D RPGs & Blue Wonder Power Milk
When you've got too much to do but no daylight to do it, be the night owl. With syrupy tracks and big thoughts, Hostus Maximus Justin Fort pours on the goodness: why Ukraine's war hurts your auto parts (neon!), how mental environmentalists' tire-slashing campaigns aren't making them friends, how paying the people who burned down your car exposes municipalities' complicity in bad ideas, and what the Hell is wrong with Nissan owners. It's not just the big stuff: someone in Ukraine is 3-D printing RPG launchers, and why horses worldwide are concerned about high gas prices too.

S12 Ep 1403.27.22 (MP3): Traffic Cameras Hate Your Safety & More Illogical Attacks on Gearheads, w/ People Who Hate Trains (Who Hates Trains?), Electric-Car Fires, Gas-Price Fails & Race Car Frauds, + Sounds of Clutch (the Band) & Being Nice to Your Dog (Dammit)
Don't let the small-thinkery of those who'd walk into traffic because their phone was more interesting than their wellbeing steer your geek-brain wrong. We've got the Motts on traffic cameras (and why they're dangerous, ineffective and unConstitutional, no matter which city is saying otherwise), NASCAR's attempts to crap on their fans (electric race cars?), Tesla's attempts to burn your house down, woke fools' attempts to call steam engines racist, and how Alabama just might have given Mr. LGB his plates back. While we're at it, how about some killer southern-fried rock? ...'Cause we've got "Clutch"; and your dog. Be nice to your dog.

S12 Ep 1303.17.22 (MP3): Night of the Living Day Drinking @ Trinity w/ Tube-Frame Pintos & Rodeck V8s, Beer Canning & German Interrupting, Taco Pizza VS Pizza Taco, Tales from the Studio, + Barns, Belly Rigs & Broken Tables (Fuggedaboutit!)
Yikes. This one was all over the place from the word "Welcome" - Dude Food (w/ bacon, beef and horseradish sauce), Javelins and Call of Duty, breaking in your belly holster (and standards for performance), KCBQ's gleaming black towers of broadcast superiority, getting lost in Boston, and inserting Regular Bill into Poland's Ukraine. We've also got a look at Trinity's Farmhouse Ale (almost a red) and their famous Mexican lager, FNG Brett's music ("Finding Chase"), Maker's Mark under the table, and the undying question of when a pizza taco is a taco pizza.

S12 Ep 1203.13.22 (MP3): Driveshaft Diagnostic & Late-Night Deepthink - U-Joints & Yokes VS Bearings & Half-Shafts, Rebuilt VS Replaced, Staked & Clipped & Welded & Clocked, + Anarchy VS Enthusism, Avocados VS Coconuts, Toothbrushing, Jokers & New Sips
If you're gonna be a bear, be a grizzly - the Garage Hour gearheads got their groove on for an hour of issues with new and used driveshafts. Troubleshooting, driving diagnosis, balancing and building, parts and tools, Cardins, needle-bearings, donuts, SVO and magazine parts, washers, yokes, paint markers and bearing cups. We're not done: there's Dr. Tooth, Animal, Megadeth, Ninjatune, gumlines, drivelines, late-night hammering, and fixing your woketard neighbor (take "Blazing Saddles" and "Cannonball Run" and don't call us in the morning).

S12 Ep 1103.10.22 (MP3): Defending the Second Amendment (Like a Boss) - Constitutional Carry, "Not About Hunting", FJB VS Gun Owners, Hiding Rules in Swampy Laws, & Safe-Room VS Prison?, + Tesla's China Problem, Electric's Conceit Problem, AMMO Inc & NASCAR Owners
The 2A is going to need to land a few punches - let's help by asserting our individual rights and freedoms and standing up for Indiana (constitutional carry, mostly for the better). Meanwhile, the LGB White House's creepy crawlies are trying to grab millions of gun-purchase records they're legally prohibited from touching, and you can't blame a hammer for hitting nails (because a good bullet is a good bullet, even if the user isn't). Also: Dead Guy Ale, Them Crooked Vultures, Garbage, Goatsnake, the Hyundai El Camino, and the Garage Hour's "Dig Two Holes in England and One Will Have a Corpse in It" rule redux.

S12 Ep 1003.05.22 (MP3): Gas Price Stupidity & Electric Idiocy, Why Old Names Ain't New Cars, Automaker Badge-Engineering Fails & Reputation Degredation, Axle Assemblies & Bearings, Calibers for Ukraine, More Felon Foolishness In Chi-Town, + Bye Bye Antonov 225
Don't let the progressives regress your success: it's a brand new Garage Hour, complete with 16-Volt, Sepultura and Metallica, plus why your new Maverick, Mustang and Blazer still ain't an El Camino, plus the upside of a Samurai still being a Jimny (ladder-frame, bitches!). Because cars have trannies, not are. While we're at it, we've got some gearhead reasoning for you: electrocardiograms for high-school sports, lessons in the Second Amendment for the tyrants at CNN, and Ammo Inc's provisioning of Ukraine's fighters (because bullets!).

S12 Ep 902.22.22 (MP3): Formula 1 & Tesla VS Re-Soviet Russia? How About USPS VS Electric Cars (& Big Gov't)? Also, Narcissm Sticks & Loud Phone Talkers, Leftover 2x4s, Being Nice to the Police (Because Patrol Car), + Megadeth, Massive Attack & Man Or Astro-Man
Now that's a spicy meatball - more strange things afoot at Circle K... Why are business leaders leading in defending Ukraine (including F1 and Elon "Pyramid Scheme Vampire" Musk) when national "leaders" flop? Also, enjoy a drive-by psychoanalysis of Generation Fail and their self-absorbed loud nothingness, Canada's midget dictator Justin "Bring My Stool" Rivera's shortness (he's not at all cool with it), and whether college degrees are causative or correllative for mental issues. Because gearhead. While you're into it, how about Dave Mustaine, the C-130 Specter, criminals getting run over by the law, and how USPS just flexed Joke Brandon out of his electric car fraudulence.

S12 Ep 802.12.22 (MP3): 4Runner & Tacoma Parts @ the Junkyard (Tales from Garages of Merit), w/ Blower Tuning (Stop It!), Resale Value Rebound, Flipping Flips, Leafs & Coils, FJ Summit, + More Trucker Protests & Sleeping Too Close to the Howitzers
Gettin' lost in great garages (or on the way to garages in the backwoods of Colorado Springs), the Garage Hour shunpikers do a drunken deep-dive from the Walkin' Dude's Toyota and Ford-infested wrenching studio. Building Subies, building Glocks, wood-panelling wagons, planning the JF Summit and tripping over 1UZs - it's in there. While we're at it: Dan's demand that SoCal folks stay there, Justin's gesticulation about the need to get your money out of the NRA until it's de-Wayned, and your host's catlike reflexes and editing skills.

S12 Ep 702.10.22 (MP3): Avocados & Potholes, Robot Dogs & Tough Cats, Rivian & Tesla & Big-Money Evil VS Taxpayers' Interests, + Nature & Nurture VS Chinese Bat Plague, w/ Deadbolt, Alien Faktor, Fishbone, Die Krupps & The Desert Sessions
What's in there... Pothole season and the billions spend by taxpayers to mitigate the billions spent by big-city leadership... Avocados are next to godliness (tell us why)... Tomcats don't take no shed but apparently German Shepherds do... ..And let's not beat around the bush: robot dogs are creepy and inhuman, but Big Gov't would love to use them to treat illegals even worse. Yes, there's more: everything from crackin' rock on the Bizarro #1 Mix, to natural remedies to the damage being caused by the nasty ingredients in certain made-in-China viruses and made-in-secret vaccines.

Too much good stuff (said no geek ever) - it's the news with the blues (okay, you're right, too easy)... Backed by blues from former board-opp Nick the Trick (2012 edition), the Gearhead consultancy's got Toyota missteps on supporting cop-haters, mass murderers and bad TV coverage, Tesla's problem with cars that can't do cold and satellites that can't do space, and DOT head Pete "Gen-2 Marxist" Buttgieg's ongoing war on effective traffic flow. Special appearances from Peter Pantsless, Big News Heads, Ray Charles, Jeff Beck, Son House, Howlin' Wolf, BB and Albert King, Cray, Hendrix, Musselwhite, Gatemouth and Canadian truckers.

S12 Ep 501.21.22 (MP3): Truckers, Traffuckers, Rockers, Shoppers & Building Resistance,+ Constitutional Carry, National Reciprocity, Malicious Manufacturing, Jellyfish, Baking Soda & Cat Your Dogs (w/ King & Stevie, Sepultura, Wizard, Tobin, Method & Puny Human)
Just have some: this one's got a look at traffic buggery (you can't be that bad by mistake), dogs on neighbors' property (hello or hunting?), big rigs protesting in Canada (still the best neighbor a country could have), firearm sales going up-up-up (especially amongst first-time shoppers), easy knife break-in, and skillsetting the Borg on the left with your geek powers (build it!). There's always more: saltwater, honey and shoelaces, a little gearhead doctorin' for fun and painful stingers, with a special appearance by Rooster Cogburn.

This episode was a big-belly special after only a few minutes - even the villains were edible. Hostus Maximus Justin Fort ran a surprise salvo at Location B(eer)'s head brewer Jon Taylor, and he responded with truckloads of ingredients, styles, practices and flavor. That means everything from burgers to baloney and fine sips a'plenty, plus a debate of cask versus tap and some of the geek vigor that makes it all possible. ...Featuring Downtown Brown, Tiny Eyes Double-IPA, Soul Horkey, Stay Here, 9.5 Thesis, plus Manzanita's Night Fighter and Norman Greenbaum.

S12 Ep 301.12.22 (MP3): Help w/ Tires, Help w/ Overheating, Help w/ Computers, Help w/ Lighting (Dr. Watson's Garage Medicine!), & Making Your Vacuum Suck - Gearheads Can, + Flat-Tire 5-Series, Cold = Worse, & Annual Egg Nog Test
Geeks are here to help - we know stuff you don't (and your ignorance makes us want to help even more). Just let it happen. From furniture moving (why would you want to live amongst things that are so crappy you'll throw them away), fixing Christmas lights (totally worth it), the return of vacuum mods, and our standing prohibition of scrambled egg juice, the Garage Hour can make everything better. Junk in the trunk: 16-Volt, KMFDM, Los Straitjackets, the Sword, I Mother Earth, Orbital, Chrystal Method, Jesus Lizard, AC/DC, Spahn Ranch and Testament.

Got'ta wear shorts - why not in the middle of winter? Hostus Maximus Justin Fort is pursued by Jason and Peyton from Trinity and "Regular" Bill into Location "B" for broken Dodges, tube amps, reconned speakers, buying more ammo (pop some pork), and DUI cash cows. Fire was required for Bill's booger bias, and Kamel Hairass is still an embarrassing failure. Fine sips for you: Space Force IPA, Slap Yer' Mammy (in the cask), Vienna Lager, leftover Oktoberfest, and a guest appearance by scratch-built pizza and Tincup Whiskey.

S12 Ep 101.02.22 (MP3): Going Fast is Geek Chic, But Why? Why All Skill Sets Matter, Why Mapping Software Is Out To Get You, Why Auto Sales Are Flopping, +Road Race-Ism (The Curves VS The Straights), 500,000 Teslas Recalled, & RIP @ Rick Marcinko & John Madden
So much for on-topic - you can't get lost when you're already there. The Gearhead Consultancy is off to the races yet again, this time debating whether left and right is better than here to there, and arriving at the fact that both could require talent so you'd better have some. Like the ads say, there's more: the ret-con of Bubba's faux-noose fail, the scary fact that your map-app is out to get you (Who said artificial intelligence is required to like you?), and rock with roll by Fatso Jetson, Bio-Mechanical Degeneration, Atomic Bitchwax, Failure and Tom Waits.

Don't get too much awesome in your Christmas chili: it's time to put the nose to the Panetone and activate your Lurker Sense. From foolish gun buy-backs and anti-cop Dem politicos being carjacked for irony and hypocrisy, to putting better presents in your stockings, the Garage Hour has the holiday goodness for your (belated) merry margarita. Yes, have some. Don't forget the basics (because we didn't): The Bullet Points, AWR Hawkins, Squirrel Nut Zippers, Brian Setzer Orchestra and Burl Freakin' Ives.

Pre-Christmas madness from the one-track guardrails-by-braille festival of gearhead goodness that makes the Garage Hour's wheels turn: Rhino-lined FJ80s versus Plasti-Dip Miatas, Cowboy Bebop (versus the Netflix remake), vinegar and marinade goodness and good bumper selections versus pinkos in the grocery store, and electric cars versus politics. Why do electric cars have to be racist now? Let them suck (or swim) on their own, and leave the palest pyramid scheme vampie alone with his billions. Shouts outed to Hoosier Eric, Dustin v2, the Ayatollah, Chef Jeff, .45 Phil and Gringo Rich (and the ignominious end of the name "Dick"...).

S11 Ep 5112.02.21 (MP3): Stuff You Ought'a Hate - Dangerous Robot Trucks, Ill-Mannered High Beams, & Things You Can't Fix (Support "Right to Repair"), + John Wayne Flics, Monster Magnet, Masters of Reality, Orbital, 16-Volt, Steril, Hellacopters & White Zombie
Do stuff (because you can) - pedalling the Subie wagoon cross-country is a great time to collect some serious gearhead thoughts. Garage Hour's Hostus Maximus peels apart the reasons for actually hating a thing - not because you were told to, but because it's bad. Start with driverless cars and semis, add the right to repair (if you own it, why can't you fix it?), and finish with clowning those boobs who can't run a set of headights ...With shouts out to Chef Jeff, the Diesel Ayatollah, .45 Phil, the Jaimz Unit, Popeye's muscles, Greedo's eggs (Han shot first) and some industrial and darkwave yumminess.

S11 Ep 5011.20.21 (MP3): Driver Crutches, Device Depencency, Two-Lane Traffuckery, Busting Bad Rythms & Deflating Drivers' Bubbles (Because Motoring Should Be Brainful) + Some Gun-Sales Numbers @ Black Friday & Some Prius-Driving Thoughs (@ Don't Be A Prius)
Why do things "because that's how we always dude them"? Dump the habits that don't make sense and honor the physics of traffic (with a little nod to the law, just to keep those tickets to a minimum), and make the phone-nodding top-knot neck-beard half-wit behind you think about hissowndamnself for a change. Watch the traffic elitist behind you when you take your foot of the brakes at a red light, and test their skill (or lack thereof). The road ain't a solo act, and we're all in this mess together - might as well own it.

S11 Ep 4911.02.21 (MP3): Gearhead Pile of Questions - Trailer-Hitch Murder, How Much (Cost) Is Too Much (for Gas)?, Sticker Preachers (Window Hypocrisy), Trucks & Cars Invading Your Phone (Whose Data Is It?), + Popping Some Bubbles This Thanksgiving
Remember, many of the world's great problems could have been smothered in the crib - don't let your headache grow into World War Seven. The Garage Hour is here to help when it does, though, with everything from trailer hitches (stalking your every shin), Bowie weirdness (better to burn out), abject madness (of lefty relatives), new-car invasiveness (bought a truck but sold his data), and Night Fliers (the book or the Mustang?). Don't be dismayed - there's more: notworking highway workers, Indiana pinkos, Nissan owners, deer fear, and trailer bitches.

S11 Ep 4811.01.21 (MP3): What Your Cars Says About Your Vote & Other Gearhead Logic... Down at the Brewery w/ CDs VS Gs (& Sticking the Turn), Thoughts on Concealed-Carry (Steel VS Plastic, Ladies' Comfort, & 9mm VS 10mm VS .40), + Punisher & Judge Dredd
Cars, trucks, beers and guns! We've got those for a night of sips at Trinity Brewing, plus an analysis of which generations of Dredd and Punisher were worth your time, plus Tiggers, bacon and a drunk fly. It's mostly gearhead - we review a survey of 43,000 people that analyzes what your car says about your vote (prepare to be surprised), plus the top-10 cars for libs and progs. There's also some reporting from CD player testing on an on-ramp (Gs won, CDs lost), and some useful thoughs about whicn pistols are best to carry (love the one you're with). Trinity brings an imperial stout, a mild IPA, a European lager and a classic Oktoberfest.

S11 Ep 4710.22.21 (MP3): ...A Road Tripping Deep-Dive Special - Mechanical Lockers & Hard Parts VS Electronannies & Computer-Aided Traction for Off-Road Functionality (a.k.a. Who's In Charge of Your Truck?), or Who's Skill Set Is It?
When time for negotiations are through and Lelu Dallas's multipass won't cut the mustard (Bunky), you can usually fall back on a mechanical part to function like the instructions said it would. That's not always the case with digital traction aids and computer-controlled robo-'froaders. Point is, there are good points and bad points for each, but the bads for knuckle-dragging hard parts don't look to be nearly as hazardous as the downsides of fancy programming and traction voodoo. The Garage Hour goons are here to help figure out what's it to you. While we're in there, we've also got some parts humor, flaky drivers and a few pot-shots at Mom (because no one can lay it on thicker than her).

As if the geeks and goons chasing the Garage Hour don't have enough reality to deal out already, it's a show with more - fat beardos with their first bike (and it was pink!), Florida's Haulover Inlet and all the sweet boats that hit it (and those that couldn't pull it off), that Mustang "Guy" who doesn't understand traffic doesn't plan to cooperate, and a little bit on where have all the UbLyfters gone. Why yes, there's more: cats and dogs (refusing to live together), the value of coolant, a few thoughts on the importance of human decency and why other drivers could use some.
