Hank Watson's Garage Hour - Cars, Trucks, Beers & Guns Justin Fort

An 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.

…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.

So 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.
