I love your purple hair Victoria! (16 minutes in) When I first heard this episode I was not yet a purple haired girl, but now I am. I've had purple hair the whole time.
This is a jarring "After Jack, before Elon" episode
I felt so seen when Victoria talked about liking Jeff Gordon as an unknowingly gay kid. As soon as she called it a rainbow car I was like "...wait is *that* why I was a fan of his growing up?"
Listening to that Twitter diversion in May 2023 hits TOTALLY different.
Graham Linehan is 6ft 5+ (he's really tall unfortunately!) but I reckon you could still take him
Fireball Robert’s earned his nicknamed because of his skill as a pitcher for Stetson University’s baseball team.
Alice: "you watch a massive pack of cars drive in a circle for 6 hours, and occasionally there is a fireball" How is that not a ringing endorsement for NASCAR.
Honestly that just sounds like the M25
I do not understand how you missed the opportunity to call your future Cryptocurrency LGBTokens
Would "Invasions" be a good topic for one of the next episodes?
I get the impression that Victoria Scott would go absolutely gaga over the Bathurst 1000
new Patreon reward idea: Liam makes an actionable threat against you
Asscar :O)
This one is for the regular episode on the Mont Blanc Tunnel fire. In the Cars universe, what car would Jesus be? A popemobile.
I have never been to Nashvile but is better city than Bakersfield.
Suggestion for future episode: The Ocean Ranger or the Demon Core
As a new listener going back through your eps, I found that the first time Justin says “I’m the person who’s talking right now” in the cast intro is Ep 10, and then other speakers start saying it (and keep saying it) from Ep 11 onwards. I’m curious, why did you start saying this, is it for an accessibility or recording reason?
IndyCar please. So much good, bad, ugly, drama and safety innovations to cover!
just wondering, will you be putting out another 9/11 episode this coming 9/11? I'm thinking of planning a watch party
Analysing truther theories for realism would be damn good content
"I HATE NASCAR" he screams rewatching this and emplemon's nascar videos in the middle of the night
Will admit that when l saw "LGBCoin" on the side of a stock car the thought that ran through my head was "Why did English TERFs create a crypto-coin? And why are they shilling it through NASCAR?" Definitely the most cursèd thought l've had in a long ass time. Possibly ever.
Fireball Roberts spent some time trying to unionize NASCAR through the Teamsters, which would have been awesome.
Premium feed, puh-lease
I know a million people have already sent you "Hey, this bridge in Pennsylvania fell down". It was this reddit comment about the state of bridges in the US that made me sit up and go "shit, I need to tell the team about this". https://www.reddit.com/r/CatastrophicFailure/comments/sg0v57/comment/huti13s/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web2x&context=3
The genius of Earnhardt's driving was his ability to manage the risk of his own vehicle...a loose setup, etc...but his willingness to rub paint and go on the grass if necessary just made other drivers try to keep a cushion around him. My favorite Earnhardt moment happened at Bristol in like 86. He's battled Waltrip for a while, Darrel has to pit and goes to the back of the lead lap. Then Darrel passes the field and manages to get around Dale going into turn 3 on the last lap. Coming out of turn 4 Darrel has the line and is about to leave him behind...so Dale just cuts his wheel hard left and puts them both straight in the wall. Kyle Petty came around and got his first win that day. They put a camera in his face after he got out of the car and he just sorta smirked. It was fucking awesome. I hated that motherfucker so much but not as much as Bill Elliott or Jeff Gordon. The thing about NASCAR and SEC football is that it's not so much about cheering *for* someone as it is coming up with bullshit reasons to hate other folks. That's the southern thing at least. Or maybe it's just my mom's cluster b personality, whatever. Growing up I had every NASCAR race from 87-93 on VHS. My completionist ass porn collection was sorta inspired by my dad's race catalog.
Ah yes, THE most American sport. Hell yea.
I'm listening to this in my car bad shirt
when Alice said Dales wrangler jeans machine looked like a minion i had a physical reaction
Bubba *Wallace*...love you Tori, but put some respect on the man's name
when does the frick park special drop?
The one-two combo of Justin coming in with the great 9/11 joke after being silent for most of the episode, quickly followed by Alice saying "All we need is a Supreme Court Justice dying," which was probably uttered a day before Breyer announced his retirement, just absolute poetry.
except now we have congress and the white house... so the next supreme court justice wont be a conservative... its not like Trump gets to appoint another one.
Did I miss it or did you completely not mention Days of Thunder? That movie was awesome. I love you all.
"Ya gotta suck the dick SLOOOOW"
The Corey LaJoie face car, but Georgy Zhukov.
Wait a minute, wait a minute. At the 37:57 mark: "Do you remember when we were going to sponsor that roller hockey team?" "Oh, right, yeah." And then you just carry on with the rest of the episode? I am HOOKED, I have to hear the rest of this sponsor story!
Y’all need to do a cryptocurrency/NFT episode. Get David Gerard if you can - he’s on Twitter all the time and usually answers mentions quickly.
i think the stance on that is "listen to Trashfuture"
When the Car of Tomorrow arrived, The Onion introduced The Car of Yesterday: your choice of a 77 Cutlass, 78 Dodge Diplomat, 77 Grand Marquis, etc etc which would be way more popular with the drivers. Drum brakes, no aero, column shift, etc etc. I'd watch that series.
once again: 24 Hours of LeMons
Just remembered that the Autobots in Michael Bay Transformers fought for the allies in WWII. It is not addressed in the films what the Decepticons were up to
I feel like I must have misheard or something, because from me reading wikipedia and whatnot it looks like it wasn't a very young guy Dale Earnheart at all who died, but the third generation guy, who had been going for 25 years or smth? I'm assuming that the rest of what you said was 100% true though.
you mean Dale Earnheart Jr? it was his dad who died, same name... just pulled that out of my head though... cant be bothered to actually google it.
WTYPP should sponsor a car for 24 hours at Lemons, with Liam as driver.
Just listened to El Tren Maya, now syarting the Nascar one. I'd feel bad for Eme, but if they actually listened to more episodes they wouldn't be about to get their hopes crushed.
i was almost postive they were in on the joke, but they just didnt want to spell it out and ruin it... Liam is just quick to assume.
I cannot express the laughing fit I just had at the idea of Roz sitting quietly for 11.5 minutes just to pipe up with "even he needs to get to work"
Where is there good racing anymore? I still like Indycar as a sort of inbetween NASCAR & F1, but whose racing weird stuff?
24hrs of lemons
I hope this mentions Supermega
vroom indeed
reds taste like plastic. im judging you.
My two favorite things on the pod: vehicular disaster and Victoria Scott
Would it be racist to ask Alice to do a bonus episode on golf?
I'm gay
I’m still listening to Alex Jones getting his ass handed to him, but this is next.
Pressing 'Y' to 'Yay Liam'. Please get well soon Liam. Hope all of you are OK.
VROOMVROOM
Dale says: If you see someone shoplifting food, no you fucking didn't.
