In this episode of Flag Time, the main topic is our favorite automotive memes. No were not already running out of topics. Yes were an automotive service podcast. No you don't have to be miserable to be a mechanic. You just gotta be a bit nutso in the head. Which is why ur here probably. Enjoy this weeks episode ya walking ball of chaos energy.
Its one of the crossover episodes of all time this week as Dave and Ian from the Apex Adjacent podcast join Flag Time for an hour of highly concentrated car and car adjacent discussion. Go Check out Apex Adjacent for yourself for more of Dave and Ian! Serrated was a guest on one of their past episodes.
Topic of discussion this week is "What is your definition of a racecar?". We also talked about facial scars and injuries in this episode. As well as Sterling's affinity for Marketplace browsing. This episode is alot. But that's what you guys come here for. Probably.
Yes. Actually.This week we have none other than Mr Regular from Regular Car Reviews joining us to talk about everything from how RCR came to be, all the way to discussing current life situations. It was an amazing chat and we hope you enjoy this very special episode. Mr Regular, this week on Flag Time.
The three hosts with two brain cells between them are back! Now with paywalled video content over on Patreon.com/flagtimepodcast cuz we didn't start off as a video podcast lol. Capitalism. Anyway enjoy the first official episode of Season 2! Its gonna be a good one.
We thought this was going to be a productive discussion but our listener base is beginning to show their uh, true colors. "Cheap and fun cars" shouldn't include vehicles that cost over $40K. It also shouldn't include commercial jetliners but here we are. An attempt was made, this week on Flag Time.
Sterling was out at a car meet with previous guest TheMacDoctor1101. So Pixy and Mobius decided to talk about the series that spawned their online usernames. Hope you enjoy! Regular mainline episodes will be back next week.
Max, AKA "AirplaneFactsWithMax", joins the hosts this week to discuss the differences between aircraft service and passenger car service. Its an extremely interesting discussion, highlighting what goes on in an aircraft service hangar and how upkeep of a commercial airliner is performed, up to and including generous info-dumping about the Quest of the Ring while next to a triple seven landing gear. Its a lore filled journey on this weeks episode of Flag Time!
Topic for this week was Tires because our producer drove in snow and saw someone almost bin their car into a ditch attempting to keep up with a car equipped with snow tires. Just like that car attempted to keep up, the trio this week attempted just as hard to stay on topic. It was a difficult one this time, but we made it in the end. Barely
Lack of sleep can be a net negative for your health. However, there is a small window where sleep deprivation can unleash a short lived bout of euphoria, where even the dumbest things can make a person cry with laughter. Can you guess when this happens in this weeks episode? Random things overheard in the workplace is the topic, it gets weird.
Its the Flag Time Christmas Episode! Mainly cuz this episode released Christmas 2023. Hope you had a good Christmas, cuz we did. Probably. Anyway, we talk about getting sick, making more hours than our coworkers, and saving someone's life on this episode. Its a good time.
This week on Flag Time, The topic of discussion is "The period of time in between high school and your first mechanic job". For two of the three hosts, this was a very short window. Almost non-existent. However for one of our hosts, the dude practically did sidequests for 8 years. Just goes to show that its never too late to start something new.
Serrated's Dashboard on the dining room table, Sterling's ungodly car list. Pixy's Rotary Story. We talk about cars on our car show this week! That's different! Is this a car show even? It's listed as Automotive but Spotify doesn't have an Automotive category. What are we? Existential dread aside, enjoy this weeks episode of Flag Time!
Turns out our listeners want to hear our tips for what to look out for when buying a new or used vehicle. The poll said so. So here's what we have to say about inquiring about a brand new or second hand vehicle. What you should look out for and avoid. No don't buy that twenty year old V12 AMG oh my god.
This week the trio discuss the flat rate system of pay that technicians earn their living by, and they have some opinions about it. Some okay, Mostly bad. General disdain towards large corporations ahoy on this episode of Flag Time!
Turns out making an LLC is confusing and taking longer than anticipated. So we're releasing Season 1.5 to tide everyone over until Season 2 is able to be made. The three headasses are back for more audio only shenanigans.
This is the final episode of season one! Season two will begin near the end of October with a new Patreon and more content from us. So enjoy as we reminisce on the last 19 episodes and what that means to us
McLaren technician Brett Rudin AKA TheMacDoctor1101 joins the trio this week to discuss what its like working on million dollar supercars, while also still retaining a sense of humor amidst the level of professionalism they require. Its professional silliness on this episode of Flag Time!
The cool and hilarious Do It With Dan joins the conversation this week to talk about his Plasma cutting business, being a background extra on a certain zombie television show, and his many years of content creation and what that has all meant. It cant get any more ADHD than this ladies and gentlemen. Visit https://perfectplasma.co/ to get cool stuff that Dan makes in his shop.
This week, Sterling talks alot. As do the others but Sterling more so. Also this episode is over two hours long holy moly. Enjoy the trio talking about old VHS previews, a car that shook its steering wheel involuntarily, and what Serrated would exchange his S1000RR for in this weeks episode of Flag Time.
