Speaker 1: How many times should you be dead me?
Speaker 2: A lot of times for sure. I was like, well,
Speaker 2: I'll never see thirty, Like there's just no chance. And
Speaker 2: then I'm like, oh no, I'm thirty. I gotta like
Speaker 2: try to do something with this time that's left.
Speaker 3: So I hope you say it every decade. I'll never
Speaker 3: see fifty, I'll never see sixty.
Speaker 2: I'm still going.
Speaker 3: Kosha Cosha Shows show. Hey, y'all to me Daniel Tosh
Speaker 3: and welcome to the Queer Country Hour. We're every week
Speaker 3: we take country music and flip it.
Speaker 1: How you doing, Eddie?
Speaker 4: I'm doing pretty good, Daniel.
Speaker 3: Oh no, Eddie, don't you do That's not it's wrong
Speaker 3: coming from you because you can't We don't see your face,
Speaker 3: so we can't tell the tone necessarily, Eddie.
Speaker 1: I got a question for you. Sure you uh, how
Speaker 1: often or first? First question? Do you ever google yourself?
Speaker 4: I mean every once in a while.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you have to read what people are writing.
Speaker 4: Hmm, I mean not so much.
Speaker 1: Ah, man, you're missing out. It's what I do all
Speaker 1: day long.
Speaker 3: All day long, I'm just googling myself, Like, oh, you know,
Speaker 3: I got a few burner accounts. I go to the
Speaker 3: comedy blogs, and I just try to Hey, you know,
Speaker 3: I'll be talking about somebody's new specialty.
Speaker 1: Oh I did not as good as Daniel Tosh. I
Speaker 1: always do that.
Speaker 4: It's tricky.
Speaker 3: Oh man, Well, Eddie, now I know that you have
Speaker 3: created a Google test for me, an auto phill little test.
Speaker 1: Let's go ahead and let's see if you can stump me.
Speaker 4: I'm gonna read you some prompts and you guess the
Speaker 4: auto film.
Speaker 3: Okay, so this is just things that you typed in
Speaker 3: with my name, and I have to finish out the search.
Speaker 1: Yep, all right, let's go.
Speaker 4: First one, did Daniel Tosh.
Speaker 3: Give away three million dollars to underprivileged children?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 4: I'm not seeing that.
Speaker 1: Okay. The reason you're not seeing is because I haven't
Speaker 1: done it yet.
Speaker 4: Okay, that will probably pop to the top.
Speaker 3: But once, if we start spreading the word and people
Speaker 3: start searching, then that's all it matters.
Speaker 1: Then I don't actually have to give it away.
Speaker 4: It's true.
Speaker 1: Nor did Daniel Tosh? All right? What's the first auto phil.
Speaker 4: First one is retire?
Speaker 1: Yes, yes, I did retire? All right? What else?
Speaker 4: Did Daniel Tosh's house burned down?
Speaker 3: That's the second one? Did Daniel Tosh's house burn down?
Speaker 3: That happened? Actually you know two properties, but let's not
Speaker 3: get into.
Speaker 2: That, all right.
Speaker 4: Number three, go to jail?
Speaker 3: Did Daniel Tosh? You're saying that's the third search? When
Speaker 3: people say did Daniel Tosh? The third search is did
Speaker 3: I go to jail?
Speaker 1: Why?
Speaker 3: What have I gone to jail? I'm a saint. First
Speaker 3: of all, I give away millions of dollars.
Speaker 4: Kids got all that money?
Speaker 1: Ah? Is anymore?
Speaker 4: One more? Create Brickleberry?
Speaker 3: Did Daniel Tosh create Brickleberry, the animated show that ran
Speaker 3: Uncommedy Central for three and a half years. No, that
Speaker 3: was created by wac On Roger, But they had tried
Speaker 3: to sell the show to Fox and Fox didn't passed
Speaker 3: on it or something. So they brought me in because
Speaker 3: I had some pullover Comedy Central. And I forced the
Speaker 3: people a Comedy Central to air the show. So No,
Speaker 3: did I create it?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 1: Did I get it on the air?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 3: Without me, it wouldn't have gotten on the air. And
Speaker 3: I said to them I will not do any voices
Speaker 3: on the show. And they said, well, we're not going
Speaker 3: to put it on the air unless you do the voice.
Speaker 1: And I said, all right, I will all right.
Speaker 4: Next one, okay, was Daniel Tosh.
Speaker 3: Was Daniel Tosh caught giving away millions of dollars to
Speaker 3: underprivileged children?
Speaker 1: Is that the first result?
Speaker 4: Still not there?
Speaker 1: Huh? Okay, go ahead?
Speaker 4: Was Daniel Tosh in The Love Guru.
Speaker 3: M yeah, I was two days. By the way, as
Speaker 3: I recall, the movie that killed Mike Meyer's career. When
Speaker 3: I showed up on set of The Love Guru. The
Speaker 3: first thing they said to me, the director walked over
Speaker 3: and me and goes, why do we cast him? He
Speaker 3: doesn't look like he would be a cowboy at all,
Speaker 3: and he just walked away like just complete asshole thing.
Speaker 1: I didn't care. I was like, whatever, Yeah, that was nice.
Speaker 3: I also would like to point out my manager, Christy Smith,
Speaker 3: how horribly she dropped the ball.
Speaker 1: She sent me the script and.
Speaker 3: Said they were doing a bunch of comics in this
Speaker 3: movie and they wanted you to be in it. And
Speaker 3: I said, I go I read it. It's awful, and
Speaker 3: she said, now now you don't get it. Mike Myers.
Speaker 3: It's Austin Powers, it's Shrek, blah blah, all his movies work.
Speaker 3: And I was like, whatever, this is horrible. So it's
Speaker 3: good to know that my instinct was that it was horrible,
Speaker 3: and then I still did it. I hope that doesn't
Speaker 3: burn any bridges for me in future work anyway. Was
Speaker 3: Daniel Tosh in the Love Guru? That's the number one result?
Speaker 4: Okay, number two? Married?
Speaker 1: Was I married? No, I'm still married. I've only been
Speaker 1: married once. I got engaged twice.
Speaker 3: But I'm not going to talk about my first engage
Speaker 3: mint that happened, you know, thirty years ago.
Speaker 1: All right, I'll tell you about it now. It's a
Speaker 1: depressing story.
Speaker 4: Was Daniel Tosh in Otaco Bell commercial campaign?
Speaker 1: I was like Pete Davidson.
Speaker 3: Before Pete Davidson, you know, he used to bang all
Speaker 3: the hotties and then sell tacos.
Speaker 1: You know, Taco Bell. I'm gonna tell you the real
Speaker 1: story on Taco Bell.
Speaker 3: So I did an appearance on The Late Show with
Speaker 3: David Letterman and his company, Worldwide Pants gave me a
Speaker 3: development deal. This is in two thousand and one. Taco
Speaker 3: Bell had me as their spokesperson. I replaced the chihuahua.
Speaker 3: The campaign didn't do that well. They paid me around
Speaker 3: a half a million dollars every day. I shot a commercial.
Speaker 3: I think they had me for six hours, and then
Speaker 3: after six hours they had to pay make thirty thousand
Speaker 3: dollars for every hour past that. And the very first
Speaker 3: day we started to go over the shoot and they
Speaker 3: came to me and said, hey, can you turn a
Speaker 3: blind eye and let us not pay this penalty? And
Speaker 3: I was like, I guess I was new to the business.
Speaker 3: I was like, yeah, Yeah. Day two, they tried it again.
Speaker 3: I said no, I don't think so, and we went
Speaker 3: three hours over and I was watching a Dolphins game
Speaker 3: like in a hotel room, getting paid thirty thousand dollars
Speaker 3: an hour to watch my Dolphins lose. Best game I
Speaker 3: think I've ever watched it.
Speaker 4: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Some of the commercials didn't even air, Like I shot
Speaker 3: a bunch and some of them didn't there.
Speaker 4: Whatever was Daniel Tosh on Seinfeld?
Speaker 2: Oh?
Speaker 4: The number five result was Daniel Tosh born in Germany?
Speaker 1: Yep? Now I was born in Germany.
Speaker 3: Why would you why would you write? Why would you search?
Speaker 3: Was Daniel toshborn in German? Why wouldn't you just write?
Speaker 3: Where was Daniel toshborn?
Speaker 1: Yeah? Whatever?
Speaker 4: Next one is Daniel Tosh.
Speaker 3: Still planning on giving millions of dollars to underprivileged children.
Speaker 4: Nope, huh is Daniel Tosh married?
Speaker 2: Yep?
Speaker 4: Is Daniel Tosh a liberal?
Speaker 3: That's the second result? Yep, is Daniel Tosh a liberal?
Speaker 3: Ah no, don't pay me with that brush. I'm a
Speaker 3: fiscal conservative that loves abortion. What's the third result?
Speaker 4: Is Daniel Tosh conservative?
Speaker 2: Ah?
Speaker 1: There you go.
Speaker 3: Of course I'm conservative. You know I have to. You
Speaker 3: have to know my roots. I come from a good family.
Speaker 3: Sure I pretend to be liberal from time to time,
Speaker 3: but deep down, oh, nothing but elephants.
Speaker 4: Fourth one is is Daniel Tosh touring?
Speaker 1: Yes, that's how you would. That's how you find out
Speaker 1: you just have been.
Speaker 3: I don't even want I don't even want to tell
Speaker 3: those people how to get tickets to see me perform
Speaker 3: live because I don't want them there. I don't want
Speaker 3: someone to come see me live. That's like I need
Speaker 3: to know, are you still touring?
Speaker 2: All right?
Speaker 1: This is boring? I got the last one?
Speaker 3: Who is Daniel Tosh interviewing today? Number one result? My
Speaker 3: favorite grease monkey enjoy.
Speaker 2: Posha.
Speaker 3: My guest today came here on his own down the
Speaker 3: old only road he's ever known, the pch like the
Speaker 3: drifter that he was. He was born to walk alone,
Speaker 3: even though he has three children. But he's made up
Speaker 3: his mind and he's not wasting no more time. Please
Speaker 3: welcome Drift Raster Mechanic, the former host of Hot Rod Garage.
Speaker 1: Tony Holy Cow. Hey all that because the word drifter
Speaker 1: was in it.
Speaker 2: You don't have a lot to choose from.
Speaker 1: When you're going to White Snake, are you a fan?
Speaker 2: Oh? Big time, big time? Didn't they have a horrific fire?
Speaker 1: All? Wasn't what it was a white snake fire right?
Speaker 1: That was great white?
Speaker 2: Now, that was a great white Fuck those guys.
Speaker 1: Do you believe in ghosts?
Speaker 2: No? Maybe, I don't know. I'm from a very old
Speaker 2: part of the country.
Speaker 3: So you're from Philly, Eddie, big Philly guy back there.
Speaker 3: Why does Philadelphia have the worst people on the planet?
Speaker 3: Take your time, ah, just full stop.
Speaker 2: Disagree. You know. I think they get a bad rap.
Speaker 2: I think that it's the complete opposite of the West Coast.
Speaker 2: When I lived here for nine years or so, I
Speaker 2: had the worst culture shock. You could have dropped me
Speaker 2: in like Nairobi and I probably would have gotten along better.
Speaker 2: My brain didn't work here because people here. I feel like,
Speaker 2: are kind of nice to your face and sort of
Speaker 2: manipulative and sort of rough and mean, like not to
Speaker 2: your face, And Philadelphi's the opposite. Philadelphia. I believe people
Speaker 2: are rough and rugged and can be a little bit nasty,
Speaker 2: but they're all trying to be good people, if that
Speaker 2: makes sense.
Speaker 1: All right, let me stop you right there.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I have personally heard that about the fake niceness of
Speaker 3: Los Angeles my whole life. Yeah, and here's what I
Speaker 3: say to that. Yeah, good ah, you mean you're nice
Speaker 3: to my face. That's when I want you to be
Speaker 3: nice as opposed to aggressive. Like I'd much rather somebody
Speaker 3: just say, hey, how's it going and then walk away
Speaker 3: and then tell their significant other.
Speaker 1: I think he's a piece of shit. That doesn't affect me.
Speaker 1: You're gone.
Speaker 2: That's fair.
Speaker 3: That's where I stand. Were you always interested in cars
Speaker 3: as a kid pretty much?
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 3: I liked cars, but I never learned how to work
Speaker 3: on him. It's my father's fault. I had go karts.
Speaker 3: Oh cool, you know, I had a Honus Civic that's
Speaker 3: right in line, that's in the world an si.
Speaker 2: Oh that's hot. Yeah, hardware.
Speaker 3: Right, Please explain how professional drift racing even works for
Speaker 3: those of us who just learned while reading this question
Speaker 3: that professional drift racing was even a thing.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's basically a cool looking, cool contest in your car.
Speaker 1: It's not necessarily a race for times.
Speaker 2: Absolutely not a race for time. The cars are incredibly fast,
Speaker 2: they're making usually a thousand horsepower. But the idea is
Speaker 2: there's three major components. It's like, you know, style, line
Speaker 2: and angle. Style is like how impactful it is visually,
Speaker 2: how over the top it looks. Line is like the judges.
Speaker 2: There's three. There's a panel of judges. It's judge, it's judged. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's tough. You're not wrong. It's tough because everyone is
Speaker 2: incredibly good now, and the difference between winning and losing
Speaker 2: is really hard to do.
Speaker 3: People like myself, if we're watching it, I'm not going
Speaker 3: to know the difference between why a judge scored blank
Speaker 3: verse blank exactly.
Speaker 2: So they'll tell you where to be on the course
Speaker 2: and then they'll judge you on how well you do
Speaker 2: with that. And then angle is like how much the
Speaker 2: car is sideways. But it's all judged, and I think
Speaker 2: that's one of the limiting factors that's really hard for
Speaker 2: the layman to walk up and go that was better
Speaker 2: than that.
Speaker 3: When's it gonna get in the Olympics. I don't know
Speaker 3: you could get it in twenty twenty eight in La. Yeah,
Speaker 3: since drift racing professional drift racings was geared toward judges,
Speaker 3: did you try to like be extra reckless for the
Speaker 3: judges or Oh?
Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, especially so American style is like super over
Speaker 2: the top, smoky reckless. The judge you goes like, you know,
Speaker 2: when you when you throw it into that first turn,
Speaker 2: there should be like, oh is he gonna make it? Moment?
Speaker 1: Always rear wheel drive or all wheel drive, real will drive.
Speaker 2: Always.
Speaker 1: You didn't think I was gonna ask that?
Speaker 3: Did you know? Well, I know I know how to
Speaker 3: peel out? Yeah, of course I got you do.
Speaker 2: Oh a good car. That's a good that's a good car. Man.
Speaker 2: All right.
Speaker 1: Was it drifting invented in a I'm.
Speaker 2: Just gonna say Japan, Yeah, Japan.
Speaker 1: It was.
Speaker 2: Technically it seems as I mean, a million you know
Speaker 2: boomers want to tell you liked it in our pickup
Speaker 2: trucks and on dirt roads where I'm from, and we're like, yes.
Speaker 2: The difference is that these guys kind of like really
Speaker 2: focused on sliding around on back mountain roads in Japan.
Speaker 2: Everyone in America going straight drag racing. Japan has tons
Speaker 2: of turns and mountain roads and their cars are smaller
Speaker 2: they handle better. So what they tried to do was
Speaker 2: to start racing up and down the mountain and people
Speaker 2: would gather and watch, and they realized that they like
Speaker 2: hung the tail out, they get a big, big response
Speaker 2: and the crowd people would hoot and holler and get
Speaker 2: stoked on it. So then they were like, well, fuck
Speaker 2: trying to go fast, Let's just slide these things around.
Speaker 2: And it became sort of like an instant, like intense
Speaker 2: subculture of racing, like amateur stuff, illegal at night and
Speaker 2: in the mountain of Japan. And one of the dudes,
Speaker 2: this guy, uh Kachi Suchia, evolved and developed into a
Speaker 2: real racing driver, and they were He was racing a Corolla,
Speaker 2: which is a little rebel drive eighties sport car. It's
Speaker 2: not a regular Corolla by any means. Anyway, he was
Speaker 2: out in a field of other Corollas racing in a
Speaker 2: very serious race and he had just out the car.
Speaker 2: It was not fast, it wasn't competitive at all, and
Speaker 2: you decided to just start hanging it out in the
Speaker 2: turns and people went insane and they were like, what
Speaker 2: is this And He's like, this is what we do
Speaker 2: where I'm from in the mountains. And then after that,
Speaker 2: immediately all the Japanese magazines picked up on it. They
Speaker 2: started having these little ecoten events and these little drifting
Speaker 2: specific events, and that was it. That was probably I
Speaker 2: think early nineties. They brought a couple things over to
Speaker 2: the States in the late nineties, and then a few
Speaker 2: years later we sort of started the first.
Speaker 1: When is the first time you actually were in a
Speaker 1: drift race? How old were you?
Speaker 2: I was probably twenty two. What year the early thousands.
Speaker 3: How old were you when you responded to the Craigslist
Speaker 3: ad that.
Speaker 1: John and Dylan we're looking for a roommate.
Speaker 2: Twenty eight?
Speaker 3: I think John and Dylan that they know run this show.
Speaker 3: Dylan usually fucks it up. You guys all lived together,
Speaker 3: like sixteen of you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, basically I was leaving a total desay. I'd moved
Speaker 2: to la and when I started racing, we like lived
Speaker 2: in garage and got our girlfriends to pay rent. If
Speaker 2: that was like a good year for you or something,
Speaker 2: And then you wind up back in the garage because
Speaker 2: it didn't work out. And so I lived in this
Speaker 2: house in La Cagnata. Nothing worked in the house. Like
Speaker 2: you turn the faucet on, it went into the dirt
Speaker 2: below the room. Somehow. It was a mess. It was
Speaker 2: a disaster. One or two guys lived in the garage.
Speaker 2: We're just building drift cars and living like wild squirrels
Speaker 2: more or less. And that eventually got shut down because
Speaker 2: they were going to develop the land. And I needed
Speaker 2: a place to live, and I just found a Craigslist ad.
Speaker 2: I don't even remember what it said, but it was like, Oh,
Speaker 2: we're in mid city. We're looking for a roommate. There's
Speaker 2: like a little cubby hole in our attic. We're trying
Speaker 2: to get a couple hundred bucks rent for it. And
Speaker 2: I was like really needed a place to go. So
Speaker 2: met with those guys, Dylan and John. It was like
Speaker 2: a fleet of them. There were so many people. They
Speaker 2: did a thing or I've never seen in my life.
Speaker 2: So the average Los Angeles dream is like you get
Speaker 2: off the proverbial bus with your three hundred dollars and
Speaker 2: twinkle in your eye. These dudes brought everyone they'd ever met.
Speaker 2: It was like their childhood best friends, the guys they
Speaker 2: knew from college. It was like fourteen of them. So
Speaker 2: they had this like a whole circle, like little mini societ,
Speaker 2: and they put a little panel together to see if
Speaker 2: I could go live there. I think John was a
Speaker 2: resounding yes right off. He told me later, Oh, he
Speaker 2: couldn't be more excited that you're here. He's just just
Speaker 2: all just all week. Oh man, I can't wait for Tony.
Speaker 2: You'll you'll never meet someone more interesting. And I'm like,
Speaker 2: fuck Tony, is what I started saying toward the end
Speaker 2: of the week. Yeah.
Speaker 1: Were you a professional drift racer before you moved in
Speaker 1: with them?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 1: Yeah, so that lets you know all you need to
Speaker 1: know about how much money is in professional drift racing.
Speaker 2: That's true, especially then, you know, we were like four
Speaker 2: years into having an American Pro Series. At that point,
Speaker 2: the only thing I was good at was like building
Speaker 2: the car and driving it. The business side, we just
Speaker 2: came from like being regular kids who are interested in
Speaker 2: this random thing to being like go run a go
Speaker 2: run a like a racing program and get sponsors, and
Speaker 2: we were just excited anything we thought early on in drifting,
Speaker 2: we were like, we're gonna be pro drifters, and then
Speaker 2: it's we're basically in like the early days of like
Speaker 2: what's going to be the new you know, Formula one.
Speaker 2: Like we were like, this is there's no limit to
Speaker 2: how big this is to get. We're gonna be household
Speaker 2: names or like it's gonna help grow the sport. And
Speaker 2: it's grown slow, steady growth over however many years, but
Speaker 2: we were definitely pumped.
Speaker 3: You had the mindset of being on the ground floor
Speaker 3: that I'm going to be a part of greatness. When
Speaker 3: I was a kid, one time, I was like, I'm
Speaker 3: going to start playing paddleball, you know on the beach
Speaker 3: where you just hit the ball back and forth. I
Speaker 3: was like, I'm going to take that to the next
Speaker 3: level and make it a professional sport. And I was
Speaker 3: into it for like three weeks. I think it's fucking stupid.
Speaker 2: Pickleball is like, that's like one shade off a pickleball.
Speaker 3: I know, I didn't have the foresight to stick it out.
Speaker 3: What's the most the highest you were ever ranked at
Speaker 3: the end of a season you called a season at
Speaker 3: the end of the season, probably in the high teens,
Speaker 3: and how many racers are there. When I was racing,
Speaker 3: there would be like usually seventy or eighty licensed racers,
Speaker 3: all right.
Speaker 1: Made to the high teens.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah we did. That's excite.
Speaker 1: You were fifteenth best in the world at.
Speaker 2: Something pretty close. I would think at some point like,
Speaker 2: that's so impressive.
Speaker 1: I mean people always think like you have to be
Speaker 1: number one and stuff.
Speaker 2: Me.
Speaker 3: No, no, high teen, I'll get you there high teens
Speaker 3: that I'm impressed. What sets the number one drift guy
Speaker 3: apart from number.
Speaker 2: Fifteen consistency usually having a really good car. It's a
Speaker 2: tough sport if you don't have as much car as
Speaker 2: you need.
Speaker 3: Talk about the finances between number one and number fifteen.
Speaker 2: I stopped drift racing in twenty fifteen or so, okay,
Speaker 2: But basically cars are four hundred, five hundred thousand dollars
Speaker 2: and then it takes about that much to run them,
Speaker 2: Like in a number one kind of team retires you
Speaker 2: go through hundreds a year for sure, hundreds hundreds. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: you rotate them they not really, no, no, you don't.
Speaker 2: You get about two thousand feet out of a set
Speaker 2: of retires.
Speaker 3: You change your own oil in all your cars, me
Speaker 3: not all the time. No, do you ever like drop
Speaker 3: your car off to get serviced.
Speaker 2: Stuff we don't want to do? Yeah, I have a
Speaker 2: like a buddy who has a shop right in town,
Speaker 2: and I'm like, do this thing I don't feel like
Speaker 2: doing or have time to do.
Speaker 3: Be honest, What a effect did The Fast and the
Speaker 3: Furious Tokyo Drift have on you being interested in this career?
Speaker 2: No? I was way pre Chuggyo Drift. One of my
Speaker 2: cars is in Tokyo Drift. The car Mine and my
Speaker 2: competition cars.
Speaker 3: Now that one had the inbred guy starring it instead
Speaker 3: of beautiful.
Speaker 2: Paul Walker that science fact.
Speaker 3: Something was off about him, and I'm like, they replaced
Speaker 3: Paul Walker, the most beautiful man I've ever seen with
Speaker 3: This guy had a list, I believe. And that and
Speaker 3: Vin Diesel's not in that movie either, which is or
Speaker 3: maybe it made a cameo at the end, but that
Speaker 3: was both Paul and Vin were like, we're above Fast
Speaker 3: and the Furious, and then all of a sudden came back.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: You ever race for pink slips in your entire life?
Speaker 2: No, looks fun.
Speaker 1: Though you have a dumb noss button in your car? No,
Speaker 1: I have never had one.
Speaker 2: I've had nitres on cars, but we have it run
Speaker 2: in a very sophisticated way where the computer says, oh,
Speaker 2: there's this much throttle and you're at this much boost level.
Speaker 2: Turn the nitres on kind of thing.
Speaker 1: See, because what I've always learned is you should press
Speaker 1: it second.
Speaker 2: Yes, you don't want to do it too early, right,
Speaker 2: that's the thing.
Speaker 1: If if I've learned anything, where are you at on
Speaker 1: EV's drifting?
Speaker 2: I don't mind evs nearly as much as a lot
Speaker 2: of people in the aftermarket automotive racing community do.
Speaker 1: Are they too heavy to drift?
Speaker 2: They're just boring. I mean, they are not too heavy
Speaker 2: to drift that they did have a Chabby had an
Speaker 2: electric Camar a couple years ago. They couldn't really dial
Speaker 2: it in. But it's it's definitely a challenge. I'm not
Speaker 2: I don't think you should have them in the same
Speaker 2: class or together anything of that. Uh huh.
Speaker 1: It's kind of like like transgender.
Speaker 2: I'm not answering whatever comes.
Speaker 1: By the way, what do you guys think of a
Speaker 1: street takeovers?
Speaker 2: Oh? Hate them? I mean it's just a disaster waiting
Speaker 2: to happen.
Speaker 1: Let me tell you something.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm driving down the PCH with my brand new
Speaker 3: firstborn son, my wife. My wife is driving. Okay, so
Speaker 3: you should triple hate it now. Okay, I'm not one
Speaker 3: of these guys that's so progressive that when my wife
Speaker 3: gets in the driver's seat I don't immediately go oh
Speaker 3: fuck yeah I do. I'm like, god, damn it, today's
Speaker 3: the day, like anyway. So she's driving. All of a sudden,
Speaker 3: we're on the PCACH right in front of Neptune's net
Speaker 3: which so we're almost leaving La County getting into Ventura County,
Speaker 3: and I go hit the brakes, honey, hit the and
Speaker 3: kids just start running into the street. Stop both lanes
Speaker 3: of the PCH Highway, both lanes, and so we're the
Speaker 3: front car.
Speaker 2: You got the best seat in the house.
Speaker 3: Okay, okay, But I'm a newborn dad, so I'm a
Speaker 3: little bit nervous, and I've got her behind the wheel
Speaker 3: of a g wagon. So I'm just waiting for her
Speaker 3: to mow people over. And all of a sudden, they start,
Speaker 3: you know, sliding, and I go just go. She's like what,
Speaker 3: I go, go go? And did she go to the
Speaker 3: right off road? This truck this they can do it?
Speaker 3: Get off the road. I don't want them to swipe us.
Speaker 3: That was my thing. Anyway. That was the closest I've
Speaker 3: ever been. I was so nervous, so full circle.
Speaker 2: Neptune's net is like heavily featured in The Fast and Furious,
Speaker 2: and that's why they did it there.
Speaker 1: Oh, they wanted to recreate it.
Speaker 2: It's like a big It's like, you know, it's like
Speaker 2: a pilgrimage you make if you come to the West
Speaker 2: Coast with cars. I people were always goofing around. There's
Speaker 2: always UDEs on Harley's ripping wheelies right there, and.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna give you one more full Circle Fast and
Speaker 3: the Furious moment, and it's it's almost sounds like I'm
Speaker 3: making this up. Years later, I'm in an Electricribvian with
Speaker 3: my son and we pull up to the light at
Speaker 3: Pepperdine on pH next to a Ferrari with a hot
Speaker 3: chick in the passenger seat, just like that scene where
Speaker 3: Paul and Vin were like, he doesn't know what's in
Speaker 3: this Honda Civic.
Speaker 1: We got one hundred thousand under the hood whatever, he says.
Speaker 1: I remember the movie, and I go, I go.
Speaker 3: I tell my son, I go, buddy, this is not right,
Speaker 3: but we've got to race this.
Speaker 2: Like listen, you don't know, but there's history here.
Speaker 1: We have this. We're reliving a scene now.
Speaker 3: If Paul Warker was alive and he saw a pickup
Speaker 3: truck doing zero to sixty and under three seconds, he
Speaker 3: would lose his mind.
Speaker 2: That's true.
Speaker 1: So we did it.
Speaker 2: He did. He smoked that.
Speaker 1: No we didn't smoke. Okay, No, we didn't smoke him.
Speaker 3: Okay, but we were next to her, yeah, for the
Speaker 3: first sixty and then I said, that's it.
Speaker 1: That's all we rate. We raced to sixty and that's it.
Speaker 2: Like a responsible dead.
Speaker 1: God, damn it. You ever drift with any of your
Speaker 1: girls in the backseat.
Speaker 2: I have not done that yet. My girls are fo
Speaker 2: My twins are five, and my oldest is eight. We're
Speaker 2: getting very close. I've taken them out in some fast
Speaker 2: cars just so that something.
Speaker 1: Strap them in and slide.
Speaker 2: Yeah, we will soon enough.
Speaker 1: John told me he went with you to Brazil. Is
Speaker 1: that where you were at?
Speaker 2: John? Panama?
Speaker 3: Panama, went to by Panama. And then he's like, this
Speaker 3: was back when you were racing. And he says, like,
Speaker 3: you guys were like the Beatles, and I'm like, were
Speaker 3: they were. They really like the Beatles. Could you walk
Speaker 3: down the street and actually be recognized by people?
Speaker 2: Not really, you know, it's such a focused little community,
Speaker 2: especially drifting stuff.
Speaker 1: But in the community, Oh for sure, it was fun.
Speaker 2: Yeah, super fun.
Speaker 1: Were you a monster?
Speaker 2: I was a complete dickhead, Like until I was twenty
Speaker 2: nine years old. I was like, why won't sponsors come
Speaker 2: back after this year? And then I'm like, oh, because
Speaker 2: I kicked the windows out of the rental car and
Speaker 2: once the head rest out on the highway because we
Speaker 2: were mora, I.
Speaker 3: Was You're I'm I'm not mad at that behavior. Yeah,
Speaker 3: that's when you should be a mora. Oh I was
Speaker 3: a complete jaz Guess.
Speaker 1: You raised cars and you were in your twenties.
Speaker 2: Yeah. The thing that happened was we were regular kids,
Speaker 2: were like, drifting is this random, cool thing we like
Speaker 2: to do, And two years later they're like, you're the
Speaker 2: pro drift. You guys are like in the Pro series
Speaker 2: and we had no money. Like it's also the weirdest
Speaker 2: thing where we were sleeping on a couch or like
Speaker 2: literally in a garage two weeks out of the month,
Speaker 2: and then one weekend you're like with your team and
Speaker 2: your suit and there's like no end to the bar
Speaker 2: tab and you can do whatever. And you're twenty six
Speaker 2: and you're in some new towns. So we were I
Speaker 2: was the worst defender for sure.
Speaker 3: Similar I was a monster in my twenties. I graduated
Speaker 3: college and got a TV show in South Beach, Miami,
Speaker 3: interviewing hot girls on the beach. Yeah, okay, so I'm
Speaker 3: going to be a monster.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 1: Of course we rented.
Speaker 3: We had production minivans, and so me and my friends, I,
Speaker 3: you know, I would drive one of them. The other
Speaker 3: world drive and the rule was whoever was in the
Speaker 3: back wasn't allowed to hit their brakes. Yeah, under the rule,
Speaker 3: under no circumstances.
Speaker 1: And that's always so we just slipped the car on
Speaker 1: the front would just constantly just slam on the brakes
Speaker 1: and you just rammable.
Speaker 2: But that's good clean fun.
Speaker 1: It's good clean fun. Oh, it's good clean fun. Can
Speaker 1: you drift any vehicle?
Speaker 2: Kind of it's tough to like really navigate through it
Speaker 2: series of turns, but like you could slide just about
Speaker 2: anything around golf cart. Yeah, I've tried it for sure.
Speaker 1: Have you tried it on a real golf course?
Speaker 2: Yeah?
Speaker 1: It slicked they'll go. Yeah, I'll go once it's wet.
Speaker 1: I think all bets are off.
Speaker 2: Absolutely, you'll let more people die in golf carts at
Speaker 2: racetracks than racing cars. No, yeah, isn't that? Why? Well,
Speaker 2: I just und wicked, wicked, dangerous.
Speaker 3: I'm guessed that there's way more people in golf carts
Speaker 3: than there are racing cars.
Speaker 2: Maybe.
Speaker 1: Have you ever been seriously injured in an accident?
Speaker 2: Nothing terrible. I've crashed a lot of cars. I've only
Speaker 2: flipped one.
Speaker 1: How many roles did you do?
Speaker 2: Just one? Just to flop?
Speaker 1: Yeah, it's not even a full roll?
Speaker 2: I know.
Speaker 1: Have you ever seen a car just plow into a
Speaker 1: group of people?
Speaker 2: Lot of people, know, not a group of people?
Speaker 1: What about you?
Speaker 3: Ever you ever hang your edge too close to a
Speaker 3: cliff like on mohalland up there?
Speaker 2: Did I put a tire off on Pike's Peak? In Colorado?
Speaker 3: One time I took my father in law. I said, hey,
Speaker 3: you want to go We're in Tahoe. There's a church
Speaker 3: parking lot nearbying those fresh snow. You want to go
Speaker 3: do donuts? And he goes, he's from Florida. He goes,
Speaker 3: You know, I've never done a donut before and I
Speaker 3: said watch this, and we went over there and we
Speaker 3: started spinning donuts. And as soon as we pulled out
Speaker 3: and left, he goes, that was very enjoyable.
Speaker 2: He sounds great.
Speaker 1: You ever raced in snow?
Speaker 2: Yeah, a little bit. What's that like? I've done ice
Speaker 2: drag racing in Wisconsin. That was incredible on like a
Speaker 2: frozen lake. This is like very low buck like diy vibes.
Speaker 2: They just wanted to keep racing and they have like
Speaker 2: three months out of the year there's no snow on
Speaker 2: the ground, so they just took their cars. They ran
Speaker 2: a million dry wall screws through the tires and seal
Speaker 2: them up, and they race them straight on a frozen
Speaker 2: lake and they hook up super hard, like they accelerate
Speaker 2: as hard as they basically normally would. You can't steer
Speaker 2: them because the fronts don't have studs in them, and
Speaker 2: you just hold on and hope for the best, and
Speaker 2: it's it's wicked fun. That was super fun.
Speaker 1: You ever consider doing the cannonball Run?
Speaker 2: Not really, I don't. The kind of ball stuff I
Speaker 2: think is super reckless.
Speaker 1: You know, Yeah, but did you hear all that all
Speaker 1: the records were shattered?
Speaker 2: Yeah, they just like, imagine this is how obsessed and
Speaker 2: singular vision car dudes are. The world is falling apart.
Speaker 2: There's so much uncertainty. Can we get toilet paper? Is
Speaker 2: the water going to keep running? Are billions of people
Speaker 2: gonna die? Early days, we had no it was bedlam.
Speaker 2: This guy's out there tuning up his radar attack there
Speaker 2: he's filling the gas. It's like, I'm going to show
Speaker 2: those idiots, ah, and then they're trying to avoid it.
Speaker 2: So it doesn't count because it was COVID and people
Speaker 2: weren't supposed to be on the freeways, but he did.
Speaker 1: They destroyed the records all right.
Speaker 3: After retiring from drifting, you hosted a show on Motor
Speaker 3: Trend called hot Rod Garage where you brought old beaters
Speaker 3: back to life.
Speaker 1: What was it like transitioning to on camera.
Speaker 2: I'd read this article that was written. I thought it
Speaker 2: was really interesting. It said it's like twenty ten. It
Speaker 2: was like, Ken Block, Danica Patrick, and Dale Earnhardt Junior
Speaker 2: are America's like most popular racing drivers and they don't
Speaker 2: win shit. And it was like, oh, that's because they're
Speaker 2: doing so much outside of this. They're on camera, they're
Speaker 2: doing these like groundbreaking YouTube videos like all this stuff.
Speaker 1: Of them was a hot girl.
Speaker 2: Yeah, one of them was a hot girl. So yeah,
Speaker 2: I was like, I want to focus, Like I think
Speaker 2: video is my next step. I grew up doing hot
Speaker 2: rides before drifting, so I did kind of have the
Speaker 2: chops and knew what I was talking about. But it's
Speaker 2: definitely a moment of like, who is this import idiot
Speaker 2: dude who we've only ever seen drive Mosses and Toyota
Speaker 2: is now telling me what to do with my old Chevy.
Speaker 2: But after about a year, a couple things fell into
Speaker 2: place and we started kind of taking off.
Speaker 3: And those those diehard loyal fans are just so opinionated.
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, big time, big time.
Speaker 1: Now, would you rather push a forward than drive a Chevy?
Speaker 2: No? Probably not?
Speaker 3: Okay, No, you hosted the show for six seasons. Did
Speaker 3: Chris McCarthy fire you and destroy hundreds of families that
Speaker 3: depended on your show to continue for five more seasons
Speaker 3: because you had a contract and you had just signed it.
Speaker 1: That's about my show?
Speaker 2: Oh I get it. Yeah, No, that didn't happen. I
Speaker 2: just left my show because I want to be home more.
Speaker 2: Good for you?
Speaker 1: Yeah, thanks, you did six seasons. How many episodes did.
Speaker 2: You we would do? I think I did ninety five
Speaker 2: or something.
Speaker 1: I mean cars, did you build there a lot.
Speaker 2: We'd build five cars a year or something.
Speaker 1: Did you actually do the builder was like, once the
Speaker 1: cameras got out.
Speaker 2: From no, it's just us. So it was me and
Speaker 2: my buddy Lucky. You became the co host. He was
Speaker 2: originally a little bit off camera wrench guy, and I
Speaker 2: kind of got hired on to do this show with
Speaker 2: David Freiberger, one of the he hosts Roadkill, of their
Speaker 2: biggest sort of show at the time. David just like
Speaker 2: went off and did another thing, and they're like, well,
Speaker 2: you're just going to do it by yourself, and it's
Speaker 2: pretty tough to I don't know if you ever hosted
Speaker 2: a show by yourself. It's pretty hard. So I tried
Speaker 2: doing that for like a season. It was kind of wonky.
Speaker 2: And then we're like, well, Lucky's here, and he's this old,
Speaker 2: smart ass, kind of like grizzled awesome dude who's working
Speaker 2: on the cars. Anyway, like this is bring him in
Speaker 2: and people really responded to it. So after you know,
Speaker 2: five years or so, we'd really built something pretty cool.
Speaker 2: And it was just us doing the car stuff.
Speaker 3: And then he just walked away from it and he said,
Speaker 3: I'm going to do the exact same show, but slightly
Speaker 3: different on YouTube.
Speaker 1: Yeah, sort of, I know. Yeah, it seems like a
Speaker 1: genius move, right.
Speaker 2: Yeah. When I was at high Garage, I was picking
Speaker 2: up picking out the cars that we would I decided
Speaker 2: what projects we would do. I'd write all the outlines.
Speaker 2: I would get all the parts either ordered or be like,
Speaker 2: make the list of the parts ordered. We'd choot the show,
Speaker 2: I'd host it, and then I was involved in editing.
Speaker 2: I would go through the cuts. Someone you guys taught
Speaker 2: me how to do all this stuff. I'm just gonna
Speaker 2: go do it over here.
Speaker 3: I never learned how to do any of that stuff,
Speaker 3: But I said, why not instead of, you know, paying
Speaker 3: fifty people to do the show, why don't I just
Speaker 3: pick three of the people that can do most of it. Yeah,
Speaker 3: and you know, and then Dylan and go on to
Speaker 3: that's good and let's make a run at it.
Speaker 1: Where are you at on a exhibit? You ever met him?
Speaker 1: Never did you enjoy pitting my ride?
Speaker 2: Oh? Yeah, it's like a just such a realist. It's
Speaker 2: an incredible way to modify cars.
Speaker 3: I just felt like I would be furious if that's
Speaker 3: what they did to my car.
Speaker 2: I agree, And you know that even if you weren't.
Speaker 2: Three weeks later, all that stuff's falling apart. There's no
Speaker 2: way you can put TVs inside the spokes your wheels
Speaker 2: and then like have a car that works.
Speaker 1: The time crunch it is all kids.
Speaker 2: It was like, hey, kid, does your car suck?
Speaker 1: Well?
Speaker 2: Now it sucks with an aquarium? Minute like yeah, and
Speaker 2: he's like, but I just wanted to get to college.
Speaker 3: Yeah, but you have an aquarium in your car. It's
Speaker 3: pretty fucking cool. What's the build you're most proud of
Speaker 3: that you've ever done?
Speaker 2: Probably my kids.
Speaker 1: I feel like, God, damn it, I said, I wasn't
Speaker 1: gonna cry during this interview.
Speaker 2: I have a fifty five Chevy with a legit NASCAR
Speaker 2: motor in It makes eight hundred and eleven astro aspirated
Speaker 2: nine thousand rpm horse power. That's a pretty fun what
Speaker 2: we're doing right now. Like it in two thousand and
Speaker 2: three it was on the NASCAR Cup circuit. So I
Speaker 2: they gave me all the history of it. Like Jimmy
Speaker 2: Johnson had a couple of top ten finishes in it,
Speaker 2: and I'm just tooling it around the back roads in Pennsylvania.
Speaker 1: You sell all your uh are you allowed to?
Speaker 2: Yeah? I mean I and all the stuff now so
Speaker 2: we can sell. You know, we have a disclaimer you
Speaker 2: have to sign that says you will die and you
Speaker 2: will definitely die in this if you do anything stupid.
Speaker 1: What's the most money you've put into a car before?
Speaker 2: Well, I still have my pro drift car. That might
Speaker 2: be two hundred thousand or so. Huh oh man, in
Speaker 2: time and you know parks go time. I'd love to
Speaker 2: see that line item Yeah, thousand hours.
Speaker 3: Does it infuriate you when people refer to themselves as
Speaker 3: tinkers when talking about cars?
Speaker 1: Tinker, I'm just a tinker.
Speaker 2: Yeah. That sounds like you should maybe have to like
Speaker 2: stay five hundred fet from school or something. It's not
Speaker 2: a good look. It is a gross word. It's like
Speaker 2: trousers or squirrel or something. It's not well.
Speaker 1: But why why does squirrel get the squirrel?
Speaker 2: This is a bad sound.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, how many cars have you had in your life? Oh?
Speaker 2: Probably one hundred and thirty. That's awesome. Maybe I think
Speaker 2: i'm twenty now.
Speaker 1: Where do you garage all these things?
Speaker 2: Well, so I'm back in Pennsylvania full time YouTube show,
Speaker 2: my Stay Tuned show, and we're on one or two,
Speaker 2: maybe three at a time, so I rent like a warehouse.
Speaker 3: Besides that, Dominic Toretto once said, without family, you've got nothing.
Speaker 3: Talk about leaving your show in LA and moving back
Speaker 3: to Pennsylvania to live next to your ex wife and kids.
Speaker 3: Because of one Vin Diesel quote.
Speaker 2: I think you hit it right on the head. You know,
Speaker 2: Vin is a modern profit and you know he's dead
Speaker 2: on it's you know, family is everything, and you know
Speaker 2: you can't get disrespected in front of your family either.
Speaker 2: That's another thing.
Speaker 1: It's a big on that too.
Speaker 2: Yes, an other guy, But basically, yeah, it's the best.
Speaker 2: I live like four miles away and I see my
Speaker 2: kids constantly. It's awesome. I have them a ton and
Speaker 2: I feel like I'm very involved and been able might
Speaker 2: Stay Toned YouTube channel has been like growing and growing.
Speaker 2: So it's feeled like I kind of did a pretty
Speaker 2: decent thing. Now you miss LA at all a little
Speaker 2: bit here and there, it was. You know, it's La.
Speaker 2: It's fun, but it's tough to get around. It's tough
Speaker 2: to be here, and you know, we wanted to be
Speaker 2: back home by family to help with the kids and stuff.
Speaker 3: Sure now you're forced to though, Oh yeah, you got
Speaker 3: no choice for how many more years?
Speaker 1: Twelve?
Speaker 2: Yeah? More?
Speaker 3: You live on an apple farm in Pennsylvania. What type
Speaker 3: of apples are your favorite?
Speaker 2: I have a I bought recently, pretty close to my
Speaker 2: ex so I could be close to the girls. It's
Speaker 2: not a farm. It's a little farmlet, we'll call it.
Speaker 2: It's smallish. But yeah, I'm an orchard with different the apples.
Speaker 2: We're new to this whole thing.
Speaker 1: Do you know who your favorite apple is? I'm a
Speaker 1: honey Chris, Honey Chris.
Speaker 2: But those feel like they were made in space, right,
Speaker 2: like not that girls out of the ground that God
Speaker 2: tastes that sugary.
Speaker 1: You made a pie yet with your apples?
Speaker 2: Not yet? Now it's we're just getting to our first
Speaker 2: apple season. When's apple season fall? I knew that pairs
Speaker 2: are rocking now though pears.
Speaker 3: Are now I don't want them. Uh you know how
Speaker 3: long pears are good for? Like six minutes. It's like
Speaker 3: good God to get a good pair.
Speaker 1: Oh that was good now by the.
Speaker 2: End of the next one, it just melts in your hands. Yeah,
Speaker 2: it's true.
Speaker 1: Talk a little about your time doing stunt work in LA.
Speaker 2: When I came and I decided I was done with
Speaker 2: drift racing. We'd had like that crazy polar vortex over
Speaker 2: like two somm it was miserable winners in Philly, and
Speaker 2: I wanted to get into the screen actors because stunt
Speaker 2: drivers have to be like they're considered on camera talent basically,
Speaker 2: So to do big jobs you got to be in
Speaker 2: sag So I came out here and I was like,
Speaker 2: I'll just do stunt work. This is before the Harvy
Speaker 2: garage thing popped up. I'm gonna spend the winter trying
Speaker 2: to get into the screen actors skil and then I
Speaker 2: can get bigger stunt jobs and do that. But I've
Speaker 2: done some pretty It's really a fun job if you're
Speaker 2: good at it seems a little bit like the Wild West.
Speaker 2: Like every time I gone out and I've gotten just
Speaker 2: like regularly like picked in casting, I'm like, oh, I
Speaker 2: can do all these things with the car Like they
Speaker 2: give you a real strong once over. They want to
Speaker 2: see you do it. It's like you know you're a
Speaker 2: struggling actor. You're gonna write, Oh yeah, I could do juggling.
Speaker 2: I can ride a unicycle and whatever I can. Of course,
Speaker 2: I can do precision driving. I've been in a parking
Speaker 2: lot at home.
Speaker 1: So you've never done non driving stunt work.
Speaker 2: No, I don't do that. I've got buddies to do it.
Speaker 2: And I'm like, I'm gonna just jump out of this
Speaker 2: building on fire, and I'm like, luck with that.
Speaker 1: Well, yeah, have you been in cars where they want
Speaker 1: them on fire?
Speaker 2: I haven't, okay, but most of the time I have,
Speaker 2: don's been sort of centered around racing or sliding cars around.
Speaker 2: But yeah, they're like, oh, I'm gonna take this motorcycle,
Speaker 2: I'm gonna crash it and then I'll probably wind up
Speaker 2: in the street or through this window. And I'm like, cool,
Speaker 2: that's cool, man. I will watch that. I'm home for sure.
Speaker 3: I mean that part of it seems amazing. I don't
Speaker 3: like all the safety speeches and deep briefings.
Speaker 1: It just takes so long.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like, can we get it?
Speaker 1: Well, it's like you guys, you guys are the stunt people.
Speaker 1: Just do it. Yeah, go have your meeting and then
Speaker 1: let's go hurt yourself.
Speaker 3: Yeah, or don't or don't. Yeah, I mean, listen, I
Speaker 3: don't know. If Alec Baldwin's in the area, let's have
Speaker 3: the meeting. But if not, let's uh, let's speed.

Speaker 3: subru Sambar three sixty van.
Speaker 1: I don't know if you're familiar with the van.
Speaker 2: Yeah, a little bit. I've heard about this a little bit.
Speaker 1: The first thing I want you to do is figure
Speaker 1: out what year it is.
Speaker 3: Okay, I don't know how to do stuff. Is it
Speaker 3: like written on there somewhere? Is there like a number
Speaker 3: around it on the car?
Speaker 2: Usually? Yeah?
Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, So let's find out what year it is.
Speaker 3: The reason I liked it is because it's a you know,
Speaker 3: it's so tiny.
Speaker 2: Oh wow, yeah, that is incredible. That's a whole car
Speaker 2: right there, right, But it comes up to your nipples
Speaker 2: very little. You can say, chess have a high nipple.
Speaker 2: Maybe I don't know, very high nipples.
Speaker 3: So I got that it was a display in like
Speaker 3: a dealership in Utah or something like that. It doesn't
Speaker 3: have breaks right now? Is an e break? I think
Speaker 3: the engine can run? Now, can you fix a micro
Speaker 3: car like that?
Speaker 2: Probably?
Speaker 3: Because here, I'm gonna tell you what I want to
Speaker 3: use it for. I want to make it a volunteer
Speaker 3: school bus in my neighborhood for some of the elementary kids.
Speaker 2: I don't think that's the thing.
Speaker 3: No, no, no, it is. I'm just gonna pick up
Speaker 3: my mice. I'm just gonna take my son and his
Speaker 3: friends and his sure just to kindergarten.
Speaker 2: With the parents consent, yes, oh god, it for sure.
Speaker 3: I'm gonna let him know the breaks work. I'm gonna
Speaker 3: say Tony took with there is a one. There's one
Speaker 3: big hill that it goes down every day. So I
Speaker 3: will need the.
Speaker 2: Makers to work. Okay, But I also don't.
Speaker 1: Want it to be I don't want to. I don't
Speaker 1: want to an aquarium in it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, don't surprise what we do is auarium.
Speaker 1: Surprised me with an aquarium? No, but can you make
Speaker 1: do an episode on a stay tuned on this on
Speaker 1: this car?
Speaker 2: Potentially absolutely. To be clear, I've never worked on a
Speaker 2: classic Subaru, so let's give it a crack.
Speaker 1: I don't mind pain anything that you tell me to pay,
Speaker 1: as long as you promise that you're not fucking me over.
Speaker 2: Deal. That's the deal.
Speaker 1: That's literally if I could just if I could just
Speaker 1: have that assurance, like I know it with you is
Speaker 1: fine in the in that business, in this world. That's
Speaker 1: the problem.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's it's very it's a little murky.
Speaker 1: By the way, should the back wheels be like this.
Speaker 2: I don't know yet. Probably not. We'll look at it,
Speaker 2: I think.
Speaker 3: But micro cars like like those BMWi I said it.
Speaker 3: I think they are kind of.
Speaker 2: It depends on the suspension type. But like you know,
Speaker 2: Volkswagen bugs do it. It just depends on how they also.
Speaker 1: Noticed when it was coming off the flatbed the gas
Speaker 1: started pouring out the back.
Speaker 2: Yeah, that's not a good sign.
Speaker 1: I didn't know it was gas until I tasted it.
Speaker 2: That's how I go about life. I'm like, what is
Speaker 2: this coffee mug? Yeah, it's a coffee.
Speaker 1: You ever siphoned gas?
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's gross.
Speaker 3: I've never actually successfully pulled it off. Yeah, I think
Speaker 3: I've attempted it and I was like, it's not coming.
Speaker 2: You're gonna wind up with a mouthful of gas if
Speaker 2: you do it right, which is not something you ever
Speaker 2: really want to say. Yeah, it's awful the worst.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 3: Here's something I'll be honest about. It's always funny when
Speaker 3: you talk to like like a car person in this
Speaker 3: day and a twenty twenty four, I secretly, now it's
Speaker 3: not a secret because I'm talking to micro feel like
Speaker 3: I'm less of a man than you because I don't
Speaker 3: know anything about cars. So it's like I'm like, ah,
Speaker 3: it's it. Also, I feel if I'm hanging out with, like,
Speaker 3: say a a fighter, and I'm like, oh, he's so
Speaker 3: much stronger than me.
Speaker 1: I'm less of a man than him.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the thing is that's all true. Yeah I believe. Yeah, yeah,
Speaker 2: you nailed it.
Speaker 1: I just don't care.
Speaker 2: Also, like fast runners too, Now dunk I can? I can?
Speaker 3: I think I could still dunk if I tried, if
Speaker 3: I spent give me six months when I turned fifty,
Speaker 3: I'm gonna dunk one more time on ten foot really? Yeah,
Speaker 3: all right, I'll And I've got to jump. I've got
Speaker 3: some spring. What's it called twitch. I still got a
Speaker 3: little twitch left last twitch. Tony, thank you for being

Speaker 3: Well, I think Tony for being a guest on the show,
Speaker 3: and I also want to thank him for taking my
Speaker 3: broken three sixty Subaru. He took it from this interview
Speaker 3: around one o'clock in the afternoon. By two thirty here
Speaker 3: it is up on a lift. Six hours later. He's
Speaker 3: driving it now in this video. I would like to
Speaker 3: point out that I don't see him stop, and that
Speaker 3: was the biggest issue. There were no brakes whatsoever in
Speaker 3: that van, so I'm hoping he either ran out of
Speaker 3: gas or he fixed the brakes. But that was really
Speaker 3: nice to him, him and Lucky. Tony and Lucky just
Speaker 3: go over there to their YouTube channel and I'm sure
Speaker 3: they'll fix your car. Just you know what, Just drop
Speaker 3: your car off. You find Tony, you go to his
Speaker 3: apple orchard. You drop off your car, leave the keys
Speaker 3: in it and the a note. What he needs to do?
Speaker 3: You don't even need the note. He'll figure it out.
