Episode 26: Now With 100% More D&B

oooohh stickerbomb/graffitti bomb would be good... maybe do something silly with the ram bar? trangirlismo vinyl banner? trans-flag colored streamers?

Godbless the eu4 music 07 Makasaar will rise

Newish listener here. I worked Uber during the last weekend of Auto Week if that's anything. HMU if you want a story ig?

But ... why no E46?

I do have to go to bat for "Train Guy" Francis Bourgeois, he is a certified Honda GD Fit (Jazz) enjoyer and generally wholesome dude. Now I'm a little more likely to search for TGT, adrift at sea...

I'm from that weird part of Ohio (tldr it's all weird, but we have Amish here) where we don't have accents. We are neutral, smoove, almost robotic. The "You've got mail" guy was born ten miles away from me. That's why a lot of people from northeast Ohio get jobs as voice actors, and why I slay at karaoke.

So, Jordan being from Minnesota (Skol Vikings Skol, Go Wild, Go Frost, Go Gophers!) only reinforces a theory of mine. The closer to Canada you are, the more you become a Canadian. It will happen to us all.

The fucking dnb and weezer edit nearly made me choke on my drink this morning ty Alex

Get a bunch of trans women to make a whole Tran Girlismo-themed rally livery to paint/wrap over tla cop Taurus

PLEASE produce a rival gin to compete with James May’s called “Estro-gin”

In regards to good automotive youtube channels, savagegeese is one of my favorites. They review basically everything new but will sometimes do retrospectives on older cars. The Murano CrossCabriolet documentary is absolutely silly. They also regularly get direct access to automotive designers and have used that to make some pretty great content. Plus they do like to shit on Stellantis here and there.

Can't go wrong with a 1312 in stickers edit: or some reference to bastards, or "all cats are beautiful", y'know, get creative

Thin trans line goes hard as hell actually

Martin Brundle you mean the former intereuropol competition driver Alex Brundle's dad.

Honestly Jordan, you should check out Francis Bourgeois’ car Instagram “my_pink_jazz” where he’s Type R swapped his pink Honda Jazz he shares with his girlfriend. He also has a 190E Cosworth and a R129 SL. He’s the real deal.

i wish to put forward a suggestion of british car media about nuggets: top dead centre. they used to work at car throttle, they’re pretty normal and have… sort of normal politics? they do a lot of modification of cars à la british car scene of the 2000s. they’re like a more professional and higher budget garbage time?

So hype for the book launch.

For the car, do the driver and blood type thing, but keep adding more and stranger info like number of gas masks or fursona or something. Alternatively paint the tyre sidewalls with the grippy sock pattern

Taurus suggestion: Model Buran mounted on top or wrap job

I would love to hear y'alls thoughts on Iron Dames not being in WEC 2026 after years of pretty consistent performance. How to see that if not as a symptom of the same regressive current?

I'm also an EU4 girlie and it was such a fun surprise to hear that call-out lmao

I fully expected the Legally Actionable Censor Music to be the EU4 theme

Ever since leaving the south, my drawl has surprisingly gotten worse. I don't drink enough anymore to say whether it thickens even more then, but I'll have to check. On the topic of de-chudifying, you could always try stripes.

The founder of EA is my mom's ex so gonna be honest the buyout makes it less awkward

If you want a chill alternative to a top gear special, a Canadian improv group did thier own TG special in British Columbia called a Road Quest https://youtu.be/tFVMs4Ru_jI? I hope they will do another eventually...

Having a good manual Honda breaks what you want in a car. I went to college with a 98 VTEC manual Prelude. After an interlude in a shit automatic Camry, I got an SI and now don’t know what I’m going to do next time now that Honda is supposedly getting rid of their manual models

I feel like @guillotinecakes on Instagram could help with styling a t-girl themed ex-cop car

I actually watched W Series from the beginning, and through the transition to F1 Academy. It always seemed like taking that money and just sponsoring young women drivers would actually do a lot more, but it was at least interesting to watch. For me, the obvious red flag that it wasn't accomplishing anything was when I learned that Alice Powell had gone from being a close second to Jamie Chadwick to coaching Abbi Pulling and being her landlady. Even Jamie (sorry to hear about her politics) seems to be doing more announcing than racing lately.

Someone at my work used to drive a completely chudded out Chevy Suburban with Umbrella Corporation logos all over it. Worked great to offset the huge aftermarket radio antenna and ram bar. Also: Corporate Pride Umbrella Logo. Be the cursed object you want to see in the world.

I bopped around between Alaska and the South for most of my life and most of my family has a South Dakota accent (think Sarah Palin not dog killer lady) so my accent is weird too. Unless I'm drinking, then I have a drawl too.
