The episode kicks off with speculations about Jonny's mysterious absence before transitioning to a serious discussion about an antisemitic incident at Champion Porsche. Zuckerman offers his legal perspective on the dealership's poor crisis management response, reminding everyone that "the fish dies by the mouth."
The Myers Manx team arrives at the garage with both their classic remastered dune buggy and the new electric "Resorter" model. From Bruce Meyers' fascinating origin story to the brand's bankruptcy and phoenix-like revival, this deep dive explores how this California icon went from beach cruiser to Baja 1000 champion.
Other segments include Spike's harrowing tale of losing his wallet while test driving the Manx, reactions to the "Meatball Sandwich Guy" and Radimak's downward spiral, and a review of the impressive Bentley Flying Spur Speed Hybrid - which Spike calls "one of the greatest old guy driving machines ever."

_____________________________________________________
Spike’s Car Radio brings back Sam Fane for a no-filter episode that blends car geekery with pure banter. They roast Farah’s 8-hour podcast plan (it's basically a telethon), dig into Sam’s decision to bail on his first-year Porsche Boxster, and mourn the hellish (and expensive) restoration of his Ferrari Challenge Stradale.
They get nerdy about Porsche's first-year Boxsters, why the Carrera T might be a better everyday choice than the 911 ST, and whether you should even care about lightweight packages in your GT3 Touring.
BMW M2 in Java Green? Looks like a beast, but that gear lever—mid. Spike compares it to the M2 CS while Sam defends (kind of) his decision to rent a Corvette Z06, even though he basically hates everything about it besides the noise.
The random gems include Turkish hair transplants, Spike getting pedicures, classic car smog test law (yes, Leno’s in on this), and who’s winning Instagram Reels from nowhere (shoutout Tony from @BehindTheGlass ). They explore the dead UK Porsche market post-Brexit, YouTube burnout, and why subtle restomods beat overbuilt customs.
Also: community support for Palisades fire victims, and an open invite to Goodwood and Wimbledon.

It’s business as usual—meaning chaotic—as the crew reacts to a ridiculous memo from a Stellantis factory about an employee's unsanitary “habit.” They analyze the passive-aggressive memo, question the logic of group punishment, and suggest alternative methods to catch the culprit. Then, they shift gears to Super Bowl chatter, odds-making, halftime shows, and the golden era of absurd crypto ads. Jonny recounts his time at the Ice Race in Austria, where all-wheel-drive chaos meets legendary machines. Spike shows off the 2025 Lamborghini Revuelto and reveals whether this hybrid V12 beast is the future—or just an expensive mistake. The conversation turns to electric cars as Porsche and BMW seem to be tapping the brakes on going full EV. Who’s right, and where’s the industry actually heading? Meanwhile, self-driving tech isn’t winning fans as an angry mob vandalizes a Waymo in LA, leading to a debate on liability and public backlash against autonomous cars.

Crowded House and Scott Dixon! Excellent!
👍👍👍
tough not to warm up your car for at least a few minutes before driving when it's an old diesel that shakes the dash and sounds like rod knock when it's properly cold 😅
When did Spike turn into such a curmudgeon?
Sorry Johnny, I have to call bullshit on your comment that everyone stays in their lane on Angeles Crest. I was nearly killed in 1990 by a Goldwing rider who crossed over the centerline and hit me head-on. It happens way to often. Be careful up there!
Stop talking over each other. Stop trying to artificially roast Matt about vitamin D. It’s the fact that vitamin D deficiency is a major factor in covid death risk
Great show! My buddies & I watched it go across the block at Monterey. My biggest auto F'up, my '96 993 Supercup. Bought it for 55k, raced it for a year & sold it for 57.5 to buy my RSA... another mistake that I sold to buy a 996 Cup. Sure wish I had that 993 Cup back.. ugh
What a way to finish the year! Personal favorite for 2019.
Murano makeup.. always those female Murano drivers applying makeup, I've seen it more than once.
Great show! 1hr is not enough
You were right, Spike. Keep it clear for the listener.
