06.18.24 (MP3): Pike’s Peak Hillclimb Tour Guide! Killer Deets for an Ideal Hangout @ PPIHC, w/ Location Insights, Racecourse Facts, Access Info, & a Crapton of Gearhead Lowdown, + Music for Driving Fast & a Hillclimb Wedding
22/06/2024 Duration: 56minAn out-of-order episode from Gearhead Consultantcy - blame the psychic iPod: hillclimb and mountain details for race fans attending this year’s 102nd PPIHC… This is a special thing, and thanks to the officials, organizers, racers and crews that make it possible (with a little help from the Garage Hour), you can better sink your teeth into one of America’s most iconic motorsports to-dos. …Spots to spectate, locations to get to, background on names and why they matter, plus neatos like the flyby at Glen Cove, getting airborne at Engineers, the other side of Bottomless Pit, natural terrain versus “built” roads, why George’s Corner is the best spot on the hill, and yelling at photographers. Then again, it’s the Garage Hour, so there’s more: why all the trees fell down, weed whacking your leg for fun and pain, hidden reserviors, Sesame Street versus the Muppets, Fisker’s refail bankruptsy, personal hillclimbing versus 100% race, driving music for brainly balance, and tracks from the Hillclimb Special.

05.09.24 (MP3): Hidden Low-Cost AGM Batteries & Secret Garage Sale Tools, Fish Tacos from Mexico & Fine Steak from Omaha, CA Earthquakes & Okinawan Tunnels, Woodpecker from Mars & War from CNN, + RIP for Excellent Weirdo Larry Allen
17/06/2024 Duration: 01h01min…Lots of parts to this episode, but they fit: with Faith No More on the soundtrack, Hostus Maximus Justin Fort does everything from excellent Dude Food (fine sirloin and the only way to enjoy fish tacos), a revelation of historic WW2 Jap tunnels under Okinawa by NHK, scary details of federal bureaucrats trying to double the Corporate Average Fuel Economy (and send taxpayers to the poorhouse), and a proper sendoff for NFL standout (back when the NFL was worth a shed) and seriously powerful dude Larry Allen, whose pleasant normalcy made him an excellent weirdo. While that’s afoot, there’s a leg too: Joe Biden’s basement ruining Rubio’s, electricity, trees and NASCAR (or what’s left of it), UPS stalkers, new automotive crime from gangs in NYC, and some cool WW2 history.

05.04.24 (MP3): Big To-Do Attack Episode, EVs VS Pedestrians, Electric Bikes VS NYC Traffic, Politicos VS Your Hobbies & Tech, UAW VS Mercedes, US Congress VS Chinese Slave Parts on BMW, Jag & VWs, Texas VS Bureaucratic 2A Manipulation, & Bye Bye Malibu
10/06/2024 Duration: 01h08minSo much episodery coming… This one’s a deusie - everything that’s going on to mess with your gearhead and geek existence. From GM torpedoing the Malibu to Kalifornistan blowing up your right to roam, it’s in there. Remember, just because you don’t care about politics doesn’t mean politicians don’t want to screw you. There’s some good stuff to be heard on this episode, though - longtime contender for Best Boss Ever Col. Doug Hamlin just got voted in to fix the NRA, Texas AG Ken Paxton just scored one for America versus Biden’s basement, and rock and/or roll with Melvins, Union Underground, Puny Human, Atomic Bitchwax, Adema, Ennio Morricone, Deftones and Killing Joke.

04.24.24 (MP3): Enable Your Garage w/ Expanded Space, Better Floors, More Tools & Storage, Oil Heating & Actualy Drainage, also Porsche V Peugeot, Jeep V Grenadier, 928 V Wife, Ruger V Savage, Mace V Bludgeon, Mexicans V Kung Flu
21/05/2024 Duration: 01h02minFinally, something good comes of enabling: enable your garage to do more gearhead things (and stuff)! Just Mark, Just Caleb and Justin sit down amongst the Porsches at the new AutoVos (Caleb bought out EAS and went independent) for an hour of making garages better. Stop polishing the door handles and think bigger: (tasteful) additions of more floor and door, coating and levelling those floors, getting more work underway with ramps and stools, expanding the tools available with better boxes, plus seasonal enhancement with heating and drainage, and while we’re thinking big, how about building up with a second story and a bridge to the house? There’s so much more: a semi drag races a Rav4, Ruger makes a nice .22, the Dutchese sell a pricey Stryker, Great Divide, Big Sky, Cerviceria and Trinity brew fine beers, catwalks make a handy way to repel the hipster hordes, plus Man or Astroman, Galactic, Pantera, Dead Milkmen, Fugazi, Truckfighters and Five Horse Johnson.

04.22.24 (MP3): Coin-Op Spray Wash Dos & Don’ts for Mud-Season Cleanin’, w/ Beers & Cheers at Pike’s Peak Brewing (Too Much Wind & Overspray Makes Beers Somethin’ Somethin’)…
14/05/2024 Duration: 50minWhile sipping some super sauce at local brewer Pike’s Peak (home of too much wind and a few excellent beers), Hostus Maximus Justin Fort did a fine observational study of quarter-powered spray and wand car care. With details on doin’ from brush cleaning to pressure application, to some not-tos to avoid that will turn your car washing adventure into a frizzle-fry of your fancy finish, this episode’s got it: some BMWs, a Pilot and a Legacy, some Mustangs and the Cutlass Two-Degrees Theory, a 4Runner, some mud, and some strange pepperoni-armed top-knots who have the car-care acumen of a left-handed turnip.

04.14.24 (MP3): When Bureaucrats Attack the Garage Hour (A 2A/“Animals Attack” Redux) - Feds Push Grizzlies & Wolves Into CO & WA, Statists Molest the Constitution in Court (Some More); However, the Rulings Keep Going Our Way (So Keep Punching)
05/05/2024 Duration: 01h07minWhat does your Second Amendment right to defend your person, people and property have to do with the government-funded effort to reinvade rural lands with man-eating (and livestock-eating, dog-eating, kid-eating and small car-eating) apex predators? Federal interference in your life. …Government overreach, bureaucratic N.I.M.B.Y.ism, a collectivist enthusiasm for a forced march into urban squalor, and the slippery statist fever dream of an empowered state at the expense of you, me and we - the independent American. Sh!t’s getting weird fast - opt in to protect yourself now, cats and kiddies. Some episodes go together like white on rice, but this guy was hanging in the lurch for weeks. It’s got lots: running with a sidearm, Mad Cow for deer now, 700,000,000 standard-cap mags, AR-15s under assault, and loads of Deadbolt - plus some.

04.08.24 (MP3): Break Contact w/ the Low-Info Zombies & Survive the Eclipse Apocalypse (& Other Sundry Gearhead Ruminations Like Cars, Booze, Beer & Blackouts, Hybrids VS Electrics, Hacktivists VS Hillclimbing, Hawks VS Turkeys) + Some Zep
16/04/2024 Duration: 01h10minGearhead Consultants and Garage Hour hosts Justin Case and Marking Time met up high above the city to watch it all burn during our recent eclipsalypse. Rounds were chambered, pizza from Sprouts was et, and beers from Red Leg, Pike’s Peak, Outer Range and Dry Dock were sipped, but unfortunately, no pepperoni armed pajama perp apocalypse was thwarted, not even in the driveway. Fortunately, Justin and Justmark didn’t mind missing “shoot, shovel and shut up” because doin’s were to be discussed: a positive word or three about hybrid automotive technology, the growing dumbness of nanny tech in cars, Eneos sneg for fun and kitchen, Van Café and LaRue for edible freebies, and Dude Food ala dove and grilled sirloin from Omaha Steaks. Don’t forget the sauce: Led Zeppelin, free televisions, Gold Camp Road, apocalypse booze and getaway vehicles, some guns, historical eclipses, more electric car fails, and Chuck Norris.

03.13.24 (MP3): Gearheads Do Good Bond (James) & Bad Guns, Also Bond Guns, Good Beers, Bond Cars, Bad Bonds, Good Tunes, Good Bad Guys, Good Bond Gals & a Star Wars Cantina Intro
05/04/2024 Duration: 01h01minSo much good stuff… From better and worse James Bonds (Connery versus Moore, the right and wrong Brosnhan… Brosnan… Brosnahan…. Remington Steele, and the “other” Bonds) to Lotus Esprit (and which one) versus DB5, DB7, 750, and AMX versus Javelin, the Gearhead Consultancy promises to ricochet off the point. Bond guns. Bond villains. Octopussy versus A View to a Kill. Pussy Galore versus Verper Lynn. Add to that a celebration of crappy guns, like an A5 Remington 1911 that shoots itself, a break-action Rossi that only shoots on safe, and Jim’s Thumper, a personal pocket five-round .44 Special super-snub that’ll deafen the bad guy whether or not the round hits anyone. Also, Bond tunes ala ska band (what?): Skatellites, Roland Alfonso, McCartney, G n’ R, Duran Duran and the Propellerheads. Also also, very nice sips from FH Beerworks, Living the Dream and Epic Brewing.

03.01.24: Reporting on Henchicrats Who’re After Your Guns (& Will Kill You w/ Wild Animals Next), Hertz Dumps CEO Because It Can’t Dump His Electric Cars (or Rent Them), Short-Bed Truck Function Envy, Necessary R.I.P.s & Some Doom
02/04/2024 Duration: 01h04min…Catching up with the episode backlog - only more to go. Played in and out by Snail (more happy bluesy doom, says Conan), this Garage Hour’s got everything you like. Cars and trucks (why to never buy a rental car, and diagnosing your short-bed problems), beers and guns (well, a ton of Second Amendment info about how states like Colorado and Kalifornistan are still seeking to disarm you shortly before seting grizzly bears and wolves loose in your back yard). There’s also chainsaw-grade shorts, the better “Blade Runner”, a look at how much ammo you keep (hint: probably not enough), ATF fails, and a sendoff for excellent weirdos Paul “Iron Lung” Alexander and Emmit “You Didn’t Know You Knew Me” Walsh.

02.22.24 (MP3): Porsche, Pistols & Pepperoni - Gearhead Bits & Bites (+ Bushmills Whiskey), Picky Porsches, Pocket Pistols (Good & Bad) & Reload of the Week, Return of Right to Repair, To Tow or Be Towed, + Allman Bros, Skynyrd & CCR
24/03/2024 Duration: 01h04min…Like a kid full of candy who won’t shut up and go to sleep, it’s the episode that would’t go to bed - so much doin’ and so little time. Well, it’s done: Hostus Maximus Justin Fort and Porsche Boy JustMark met up in the hills for fine sopressata, Irish whiskey (that loved Justin but hated Mark) and a chat about pocket pistols - commonly called a “micro” nowadays. From Derringers to Jennings and S&Ws and LCPs, the gerhead consultants whip it out and compare misfires. When it was all said and done, it was just stuff we like (or like to hate): Jaegermeister, Kennewick Man, glue versus screws, Grenadier versus 4Runner, Hickock .45, stoned drivers, Trotski, used Porsches and guns, das hooter, Porschelish and Japlish, Metzger engines, old retaining walls, old steel and old mining history. Oh yes, plus Apocalypse Now, Heart of Darkness, Air America, Wooley Bully, Tour of Duty, Dredd and Riddick.
