In this week's episode we talk about F1's Silly Season, Dave's upcoming Abarth upgrades, and some very wacky vanity plates. We love you!!!

This week we're incredibly honored to have Andrea Petersen on the show! She's a Twitter mainstay, brilliant positive presence in our threads, a boss-ass hillclimb racer, former - and kind of current? - Fiat 500 Abarths owner... Yeah, plural ABARTHS!!! We're very thankful for Andrea and we're certainly thankful for her taking her time to guest on our show.

We don't know if it's the mustache, the weather, or what, but tonight we're full of feel-good stories, optimism, and uplifting quick wins. Whatever it is, we'll take it! We love you everyone!

How does one catch themselves their very own Ian? Well, it turns out that one random Canadian has cracked the code. In this episode we talk about how Ian avoided getting kidnapped and Dave's nervous time modding his Abarth. We love you everyone!

In this week's episode we discuss why Ian can NEVER own a Fiat 500 Abarth and how you should always spread the love when it comes to sharing your vehicles. Stay safe everyone, we love you!

In this week's episode Ian and Dave pick up the gauntlet laid down by our dear friend Donnie and dig deep into circumstantial Craigslist sales. That's great and all, but we're really just trying to recover from the trauma of our supposed "racing" weekend in which very little racing took place. We love you!

We have been blessed by many gifts oh listeners, many gifts including yourselves! In this episode we receive gifts of many varieties, so thank you everyone for continuing to enable whatever it is that this is. We love you everyone!!!

Not really much to say except that we have a lot to say. We love you. Please do what you need to care for yourselves and the people close to you. We'll say it again, we love you.

In this episode we discuss Dave settling in to his motorsports home as well as a moment of solitude that Ian finds in a Cadillac. We love you everyone, stay safe and take care of one another and yourselves!!!

When it comes to poorly thought out choices we could basically teach a grad-school-level course on the topic, right? Well, in this episode Ian discovers someone that doesn't even make the most basic attempt to think through ANYTHING. We've been outclassed, and by the looks of it, we're perfectly okay with that. Also in a shocking twist, Dave wants to talk about F1! I KNOW! We love you.

Woah. Dave never thought this day would ever come, and in some way, neither did Ian. We start the episode by discussing an idea Ian has that he's thought out much further than he's thought about it in the last 12 years. What could this mystery be?!? Find out and stick around for our normal nonsense as well as a license plate game. We love you!

We are so very lucky to have Jeff Glucker joining us this week! You know Jeff from Hooniverse, you've seen him on MotorTrend, and now you get to hear us two goofballs chat with him! This conversation takes some really fun turns, so pop open your beverage of choice, pull up a seat, and come hang out with us!

In this week's episode Ian talks us through what happened during a recent unfortunate scenario, and Dave, well Dave talks about the candy he's eaten. All this, and some very um...interesting Mustang vanity plates await. We love you everybody!

We're extremely grateful to have Kevin Williams join us on this week's show! You know Kevin by way of Car Bibles where he literally wrote the book on the Fiat 500 Abarth. Kevin focuses on some incredible areas of the automotive landscape, and we're very thankful for the work that Kevin does and we had a great time talking to him!

This week Ian and Dave bring you tales of driving VERY different cars, fixing little cars, and uncovering a whole new sector of vanity license plate enthusiasts. We love you!

We're lucky to have our dear friend Sam Ferrara on this week's show! Sam is a fantastic automotive enthusiast and all around amazing guy. Besides he and Ian naming a ton of bands that Dave has never heard of, we talk records, cars, car audio, and a bunch of other great stuff.

This week's show is filled with close calls, compliments, and mental health check-ins. Dave's lucky to be alive after dodging a couple hazards, Ian made a valet person's day, and we make sure Dave's doing okay after some deep-dive research into some very specific car stuff. Stay safe everyone, we love you!
