Description
We are what the world truly doesn't need, yet Another Pointless Automotive Podcast. At least we know this is a pointless exercise to the benefit of nobody. As such, this is a podcast that ranges from the odd to the mundane, the typical to the absurd topics in the automotive world. Join along and be part of the unimportant.

Ready for some bad, piping hot opinions about the car world?! Well tune in for a near hour of nonsense! We'd love to hear from you about what you think about these (likely bad) takes, and what problematic car world hot takes you have.
In yet another thinly vailed attempt to pull unwanted consulting fees from a major OEM, the homies sit down to chat about how they would each build Nissan out of its current hole. Lien into Nissan and Datsun heritage? Sell more Altimas for even bigger chaotic energy? What would you do?
Only a couple of weeks until the DWA rally, and the boys still have lots of work to do on their Sub-$3500 rally machines. Will Chadwick be able to unmeth his V50 with an accidental SRS deployment? Will Frank be able to stay under budget and find a human to drive it on his behalf? Will X to the Z himself show up to save the day?
Let's take some time, and pour some out, to a trio of Japanese car brands that came and went in the American market. Suzuki, Isuzu, and Daihatsu died off a while ago, but some of their cars and trucks are still driving around the U S of A. Are you ready for Axiom speak and Equator chatter?
Where we are going, we don't need any scripts. The fellas shoot the breeze and cover a wide vast of topics ranging from Neanderthals to maybe even cars. Guaranteed RAW content within.
In a rare moment of accountability, the fellas reflect on their inability to avoid burying themselves in more and more projects that will never be completed. It's a hard hitting one guys...enjoy.
The dudes found a freshy 5spd wonder to tag team, in what is their second run at Eifel Towering a project car. The dudes kick back and talk about their first project as a duo, an E30 sedan, as a lead into their next entry level luxury project.
Living on the bleeding edge of the goings on in the automotive space is not what this podcast does. So that's exactly what the fellas try and do in this all car world new episode.
The fellas issue a dire warning for those wanting to emulate their turd box rich lavish lifestyles. Project cars are freakin' expensive. Some costs are obvious, while some can really sneak up on you. Let's explore some of financial pains that come with the territory.
The fellas adopt a more global view on the traditionally American centric muscle car. Which foreign country did the best impersonation and will we ever see a modern interpretation of the hallowed muscle car.
No, the fellas are NOT the ones who have found the Epstien client list, they're simply talking about newer cars this week. Specifically, 20 year old or younger cars that offer up a good time and have some enthusiast chops. Let's take a break away from some of the 1980s and 1990s car talk and discuss some of the newer offerings out there. We'll save the client list reveal for next episode.
Whom amongst us hasn't had a wondering automotive eye when traveling abroad, seeing all of these exotic automotive offerings that we don't get here. The fellas burn some time day dreaming of far off lands, and thinking about what cars they would love to sneak back home in their carry on.
In this soul searching episode (spoiler alert, it's cold and empty in there) the fellas discuss the merits of having a daily driver that is also a fun thing to use. Should Frank replace his super competent daily driver that gets over 40mpg with something that's maybe a bit less practical and/or economical? Are there good options for something like this anymore? Is life too short for a boring daily? Let's discuss?
We favor an endearing turd box quite well round these parts, but there exists an irredeemable class of vehicle even further removed from greatness. On this heartfelt episode, the boys single out vehicles that lack any semblance of desirability.
The fellas get extra pragmatic (cheap as all hell) on this very special episode (aren't they all?) and shed some light on a multitude of adventure rigs fiscally viable to the thrifty enthusiast out there. Lots of truck for not a lot of cheddar is the objective. Did we miss anything obvious?
The suspense has been literally killing the fellas to hold back their secret $3,500 rally car purchases. This very episode contains that sweet sweet release. What obscure rides did the boys secure?
Badge engineering in the automotive world is when an OEM will take one model of car, make some (usually superficial) changes to it, slap the logo of another brand on it and call it a new car. Sometimes this works out just fine, other times it's just BAD. The local car idiots of the APA pod sit down to discuss instances where this practice just plain didn't work out.
The boys decided to up (or more realistically lower) the ante for the next Driving While Awesome (DWA) Rally by implementing a rather restrictive budget of only $3,500. Yes, that's for the car, maintenance, and mods. Yowzers.
Talking the talk, but not being able to walk the walk, makes for a very sad car. This week the boys detail some rides that brought the image hard, but were armed with only a limp noodle (phrasing). You heard that right.
The ancient war between coupe and sedan has been unearthed once again. Everything is an SUV now, but in the before times, this battle was one for the ages. Do you agree with our takes?
