Teamclearcoat - An Automotive Enthusiast Podcast By Two Car Nerds

Dave's back in the valley of despair this week, as his Fiat 500 Abarth, AKA Project Meatball, takes a turn for the worse. Like a SHARP turn for the worse. We also discuss Ian's rental car adventures and how we're thankful a Mustang didn't yeet him straight off of this mortal coil.

We'll cut right to the chase, we love this friggin Jeep! In this episode we discuss the spectrum of Jeephood, things that have resonated and not with our personalaties and tastes, and clue you in on why you should absolutely consider this vehicle if you're in the market for anything Jeep-related.

On the show this week we are proud to have Brian Cather on to discuss his amazing racing adventures and what it's like to have our resident Fancy Lad as part of his racing team. Thank you so much Brian!

We feel you Facebook engineer, we feel you. Anywhoozle, in this episode we talk about Dave's Abarth and Ian plays a spooky scary FMKCars! Stay safe everyone, get vaxxed, get boosted, and take care of yourselves and others. We love you.

In this week's episode Ian and Dave discuss their VERY DIFFERENT experiences with the Mazda MX-5. Listen in to find out how we almost broke a press car, have to visit a chiropractor, and what it was like to feel the wind in our hair. We love you everyone!

Sometimes seeing a thing in traffic brings up WAY more questions than it does answers, to that end we dig in to an absolutely crazy truck tailgate. Thankfully it is not all head spinning, Dave updates us on his progress with the Fiat Abarth.

In this week's episode we discuss Ian's first 24 hour Lemons race and how the 2021 Toyota RAV4 became an unlikely friend. We love you everyone, get vaxxed, get boosted, and stay safe.

It's an absolute honor to have Jay Lamm, founder of the 24 Hours of Lemons, on the show this week! We talk about Lemon's impact on car culture and Jay shares some fantastic perspective on individual's experience with racing, how to continue racing safely during the COVID era and more!

In this episode Dave once again joins Ian in Club Hatchback! We go over his recent purchase, as well as some great MyEyes and a temple-rubbingly dumb Carstanza. We love you everyone! For the love of all things, vaxxed and stay safe!!!

We're absolutely honored to have the one and only Doug DeMuro back in the virtual blanket fort this week! In this week's show we talk vanity license plates, his incredible auction site Cars and Bids, and how the Tesla Plaid CHANGED HIM. Thank you Doug, we had a blast talking to you!

In this week's episode we talk about what's on our minds. On one hand you have the Nazi car that won the highest award at Pebble Beach so...yeah, and on the other hand you have everything that's happening in Afghanistan right now, and yet on even more hands you have us doing our best to do a car show and...kittens. Really a mixed bag this week, but hey, we are what we are and the world is what it is. Stay safe everyone, we love you.

This week we are humbled to have Victoria Scott on the show! She's an amazing writer and photographer and an absolute joy. We truly had an amazing time talking with Victoria and we know you'll have a great time listening along. We love you!

It's not really off-brand for us to diverge, but bison? Sure. Anyway, besides us fawning over our large bison sons we talk about a new vanity plate proposition from our buddy Donnie. We love you!

Honestly, there is no description that could do this thing justice. Really, no words. Speechless. We love you, and we love the person that made this insane thing. Shine on you crazy diamond.

In this week's episode Ian contemplates the living hell that playing golf sober would be. It turns out that our resident golf-hater has been driving Golfs and golf carts into fields for quite some time. We love you!

What else is there for us to explore about ourselves other than how absolutely nerdy we can be? In this week's show we discuss how we have each crossed our own Rubicon of Dorkiness, from which we will never return. We love you everyone, stay safe out there!

In this week's show we talk all things climate with Colorado Public Radio's Climate and Environmental Editor, Joe Wertz.

Since Dave is out of the loop, Ian brings him up to speed on YokeGate. In return, Dave presents Ian with a golf-themed license plate game. We love you everyone, stay safe out there!

There really is no limit to what Ian will do with his R32. In this episode he recounts his experience taking his son camping, watching as his car was bump-inspected by a gigantic bull, and somehow rockets were involved? Okay. We love you.
