On episode 71 we have returning guest John Robinson, son of the late, great Fat Jack Robinson. John and Chris sit down for a conversation about what it's like growing up in the Hot Rod industry from childhood and all the adventures they shared along the way

Excited to launch Episode 70 with the one and only @chipfooseofficial It's been almost 25 years since Chip and Chris have sat down to have a conversation. We had a great time talking as Chip reflected on his career and how working for Chris' dad set his trajectory to become one of the best automotive designers of his generation. It's super fun to hear all the Boyd stories and have him fill in the blanks on a lot that went down in the 8 years he worked for Boyd. Have a listen. #31daysofboyd #chipfoose #hotrodding @overhaulinofficial #artcenter #automotivedesign #boydcoddington

We brought Blue Bear out of hibernation for another great podcast. @curtisspeed was there to join in on the mini #americanhotrod reunion. What's up with Blue Bear? We finally answered that question. Have a listen. #boydcoddington #americanhotrod #bluebear #chadgeary #mikecurtis

New podcast with Rod Brogdon is up. Another trip down memory lane and a deep dive into the wheel side of things. Rod was there in the early days, and he jumped head first into the world of CNC programming and machining, learning that emerging technology that helped create the first ever made to order custom wheel business. #rodbrogdon #boydbuilt #boydswheels #boydcoddington #madeintheusa #billetwheels

Another podcast up. We decide to ask #chatgpt how to build a billet wheel and ask their opinion on the top 10 #boydcoddington builds based on popularity. We also got our friend @allowaybobby on the phone to tell us about a new show he is promoting in September @triplecrownofrodding in Nashville. #bobbyalloway #shadesofthepast #boydcoddington #hrbbpodcsst #aigeneratedart #chatgpt #artificialintelligence #hotrodding #podcasts

We had a great conversation with longtime friend @mr_cgs from @cgs_performance .

Great time catching up @cherielynn.westrich. from surfing and skateboarding across the globe to the Hollywood rock and roll scene in the 90s to building a ton of cars with @chipfooseofficial on the hit show @overhaulinofficial and now a member of the Iowa state senate. It was exciting to hear about her journey and her new business ventures with @malwoodusa.#Weezer #therentals #supersport2000 #overhaulin #chipfoose #cargirl #politics #skateboarding

Great conversation with Al Simon bringing us back from Orange Ave days all the way through the American Hot Rod Era. Al keeps it real and shares some good stories and insight into what it was like working for my dad. @spotify #americanhotrod #alsimon #boydcoddingron #hrbbpodcast #hotrodpodcasts

After a brief conversation on the phone with Keith after he had just watched the OBS video we did with @autorevolution it was clear we definitely missed some key details or lacked some good explanation as to the modifications on the truck. So we brought him on the podcast to fill in the gaps. #podcasts #automotivepodcast #hrbbpodcast #keithrussell

Number one asked question at @dinosgitdown ? When is the next podcast coming out. Well here it is. We thought we'd fire up the podcast room again with a recap of one of the best automotive gatherings in the country. Steve and I discuss the show and we get @azproperformance Travis and Jarod from @motorsport_concepts on the line to give us their thoughts on the show. @hotrodsbyboyd #trucks #dinosgitdown2022 #c10trucks #chevysonly

We had Keith Russell and Duane Mayer on the podcast together. Great time talking to these guys. #podcasts #automotivepodcast #hrbbpodcast #keithrussell #duanemayer

Another episode of the HRBB podcast launched. We got to talk with the talented @rob_ida . Rob has been a car guy since he was a kid and alongside his dad they have taken on some really interesting builds over the years. We talked everything from porsches to Tuckers. #idaautomotive #hrbbpodcast #hotrods #tuckercars #porsche. #handbuiltcars

It was a pleasure to have Art Morrison of @artmorrisonenterprises on the podcast. Art Morrison is one of the leading chassis manufacturers in our industry. Many builds from my father rolled on his chassis. Cars like the Led Zephyr , French Connection, and many of the Tri Fives. In 2021 he will be celebrating 50 years in business. Art is a super nice guy and it was fun to talk to him and listen to him tell us about his life and everything he has going on. #hotrodbuilder #chassisbuilder #madeinamerica #artmorrison #boydcoddington #custombuilt #podcast

We sat down with @marcelvenable2.0 of @autorevolution and discuss their OBS clash series and everything else going on with trucks right now. If you are into OBS trucks you have to check out their OBS clash series on @amazonprimevideo and @youtube . It's very well done and puts a spotlight on some really cool stuff going on with bringing back these 80s and 90s vehicles.#obstrucks #oldschoolbillet #customtrucks #boydcoddington #belltech @belltechsuspension

Without customers to fund a hot rod build most ideas would take years or never see the light of day. There are so many important and influential customers of my dads over the years and we got to talk a very special one. Gil losi is an all around great guy that has put together a great collection of award winning cars and has a special place in the history of Boyd Coddington. Enjoy.#teamlosi #gillosi #variflex #hotrods #boydcoddington #boydster2

Had a great time talking with these two characters. We start with @dustin1929 and his first trips out to CA as a teenage automotive designer and work our way into talking with @greg_westbury about some of the cool stuff he has done over the years. Some really good stories that brought back a lot of memories. Enjoy.#hotrods #boydcoddington #hotrodsbyboyd #1929pickup #bikerbuildoff

Another podcast with Keith Russell. Felt good to do another podcast. Keith shared some cool pics with us and the stories that go along with them. Check it out. We are now on spotify as well.#spotify #boydcoddington #hrbbpodcast #krcustoms #zztop #billyfgibbons #cadzilla

A couple of weeks ago I made the trip to AZ for @dinosgitdown and @goodguysrodandcustom . Dinos show was off the hook on Friday. Over 1600 trucks showed up for a really amazing grassroots event held at @westgateaz . Killer vibe and venue with some real chevy truck enthusiasts. We had the pleasure of having @dinoschevyonly on our podcast to talk about the Git downs history and what drives this guy who lives and breathes trucks.. Great conversation.
