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.

What's cooler than being a rich guy/gal in 2004 and buying some excellent rides? Being a lower middle class guy/gal in 2024 and dreaming about cool rides from 20 years ago! Tag along while we chatter on about the "04 Rich" phenomenon and discuss what cool cars were in the market two decades ago. Come for the banter, stay for the 2004 Suzuki line-up deep dive!
Welcome to the three year special episode! It's very much special in zero ways as the fellas talk about a bunch of random non-sense to avoid talking about their feelings. Three years of the pod is in the books, so let's reflect a bit and talk about what troubles the next three years of the pod might hold!
According to many, the Honda Accord is one of the greatest all around cars this pitiful excuse for a world has ever seen. The boys don’t disagree with this sentiment and elect to blow an entire pod episode rummaging through this fantastic car’s past and how it may have ultimately lost its way in the most recent iteration. Crosstour hate within.
We're not the dudes to cover trending topics, but when the topic pulls our Sega Rally Championship heartstrings we can't help ourselves. The boys cover the latest SEMA powerhouse...Toyota's GR86 equipped with the GR Corolla's excellent powerplant adorned in the all too sweet retro Castrol livery.
Whether it's your slightly over-glorified she-shed, or your aircraft hanger...a garage serves a fundamentally essential role in allowing us car peeps to be the way we are. In this 'sode, we deep dive into what makes a garage a garage and what key items are needed to accessorize it (besides crap box cars).
After a month off to goon away from the mic, the dudes are back in action! In a spirited return, the fellas sit down and catch up, not just with each over, but with you, the loyal APA podcast listener! Has Chadwick finally sold off some metal along with a actual garage? Has Frank evicted any more transient women from any of his cars? It's good to be back in the saddle again, so join us on a dumb and giggly return episode.
The boys sure do buy and sell a ton of cars...I didn't say good cars...just cars. So they tend to keep a keen eye trained upon the used car market at all times. Lately the market has been tilting in favor of the buyer looking for something a little weird.
The dudes are up to no good again. Head outta the gutter. This time, they are sitting down and drafting trios of 1980s cars to fit different roles, each picking from different continents. Which trio of 1980s Euro rides which you pick to own and fill a need for a family car, sports car, and offroad use case? No, you cannot pick 3 LM002s. Let's find out which errors in judgement they make here.
Hey, the fellas aren't dead!? Not only are Chadwick and Frank very much alive, they are still dreaming of future projects to shop for! Are the bois going to jump into a life of mini truck'n and Honda modding? Will they do the right thing and keep selling off cars they currently own? Will they die mid podcast?! Turn on and tune out.
The homies are crunched for time as life is bringing the heat, yet they somehow have just enough time to still sit down and talk cars. Not enough time however to think of a clever (or even profoundly stupid) topic. Tag along as they dudes chat about random automotive thoughts and maybe find themselves an adult website sponsorship.
Your 5th favorite car podcasting duo kick back and do their best to make the most iconic car films into the worst. In a special Taco Bell fueled episode, Chadwick and Frank find bleak new ways to mod existing car films into twisted caricatures of themselves. What if we recast the lead in Gone in 60 Seconds? What if Lightning McQueen was able to take hyper gory and visceral body damage? You want weird? You've got it!
The boys are back at in a deeply retrospective mood. It's time again to revisit Car & Driver's 10 Best list. This episode's vintage includes the tail end of those wild and wacky 90's into the bold new 2000's. What are you favorite cars from this period, and did they make the list?
The fellas sit down and recount some seriously sweet rides they have recently witnessed in the wild. Are you even a car person if you haven't left a note with your phone number on it on the windshield of a cool car?
You want a cool weekend/fun car, but you don't want to break the bank? Well tune right in because we're serving up some fresh options for you to blow you spare cash on (spare cash?). It's tough market, but if you look hard enough there some diamonds in the rough
On this episode...well, the title pretty much sums it up. It's been a long time since the boys have chatted...hell, they even skipped a week of posting the pod. Topics such as car auctions, new car purchases, and who knows what else will be spoken upon this week.
The fellas love them selves a good camera, so long as they are on the other side of it, shooting photos and video. How do they do it? What are the tricks? Will they send nudes? Find out here!
The homies kick back and talk through their respective collections of automotive garbage, updating you, the dear listener as to what the hell is going on. Has Chadwick bought yet another SR20DE powered car? Has Frank finally got off his can and sell something? Tune in and find out!
Ever wonder what awful things might lurk in the search history of the fellas? Guess what... it's all cars! The dudes sit down and poke through their recent saved items on Facebook Marketplace to see what sort of rough and trashy diamonds might be found within.
It's not just nostalgia that drives out passion for older cars... it's the fact that modern cars have swerved too far off the road of pure driving enjoyment and adventure. The fellas cover modern car bloat, the death of the analog experience, car tech following the cell phone model, and much much more.
Any car guy/gal has at some point sat down, and in their mind, mapped out what they would do should they get to start their own car company from scratch. The fellas take this episode to do just that, hand craft a new OEM manufacturer out of thin air. Does Chadwick feed everything a girthy V8? Did Frank build an all EV collection of neo-beaters? Listen to what they build for their line-up! What would you do?
