    ModPro AI’s Smart Modding Platform

    Steve Beres and Ike Goss open the Underpowered Hour with Land Rover news, including a UK pastor caught using a cellphone while driving who avoids disqualification by arguing his congregation would suffer without him, and JLR’s CEO signaling renewed investment in the struggling Discovery—alongside discussion of Discovery’s dog-focused “Pet Pack” accessories. They’re then joined by Rebelle Rally team sponsors Aaron and Jasper of ModPro AI, who share their automotive backgrounds and the origin of their app after spending heavily to modestly increase power on a Subaru WRX. They explain ModPro AI’s enthusiast community, digital garage, social features, and AI advisor that aggregates data and provides recommendations with a confidence meter, plus upcoming agentic AI improvements and plans for business profiles and groups. The guests recount touring Jay Leno’s collection, seeing a Pantera, and witnessing delivery of a Leopard tank.

    Range Rover SV Ultra Mega Wellness Floors, JLR Profits Down 99%, and UK Defender Replacement Rumors

    Steve Beres and Ike Goss kick off the Underpowered Hour by reacting to a Range Rover SV Ultra (and “Ultra Mega”) promo highlighting a 21-speaker electrostatic sound system, haptic “sensory floor,” and wellness modes that spark jokes about cost, recalls, and a 4D in-car experience. They then discuss conflicting Jaguar Land Rover financial headlines, including profits reportedly down 99% due to warranty costs tied to a 170,000-vehicle recall, cyber attacks, Middle East war impacts, and tariffs, though the loss “beat expectations.” Next, they cover the UK Ministry of Defense seeking a classic Defender replacement, with potential bids from Land Rover, the Ineos Grenadier, and other manufacturers, plus rumors of a smaller Ineos EV partnership tied to Chery and the name “Fusilier.” Ike recaps attending Oregon’s Rover Rendezvous in a 1957 Series I 107 station wagon, including minor repairs and a failed voltage regulator, and they close with upcoming guests and Steve’s excitement about a Dutch Bros opening in Valencia. 00:00 Show Intro and Hosts 01:20 SV Ultra Mega Tease 02:59 Electrostatic Audio Demo 05:22 Wellness Modes Mockups 07:50 4D Haptics and Price Jokes 09:12 JLR Profits and Recalls 11:04 MOD Defender Replacement Race 13:28 Military Needs vs New Defender 14:32 Who Will Build It 15:07 Tiny Grenadier Rumors 16:18 Chery Partnership Speculation 17:08 Fusilier Name Reveal 18:12 Tranquility Mode Banter 18:47 Oregon Rover Rendezvous 19:55 107 Wagon Road Trip Fixes 20:59 Event Trucks and Activities 21:53 Anarch 80th Planning 22:47 JB Weld Head Gasket Saga 24:14 Bad Repairs Philosophy 25:29 Next Week and Dutch Bros 27:03 Signing Off

    Mendo Recce Mayhem: A Series 1 Head Gasket Bodge with Copper Wire & JB Weld

    Steve Beres hosts The Underpowered Hour with Ike Goss, joined by Linus Tremaine and Jenna Fribley (with Liza Beres present), covering news and an event recap. They discuss Warn’s updated 8274 winch now rated to 10,000 lbs, joking about special editions and waterproof claims, and mention a restored 1967 Fiat Ferves Ranger listed for $48,000. The main story is Pangolin 4x4’s nine-day drive to the Mendo Recce gathering at Salmon Creek Ranch in Bodega Bay, including visits with Land Rover enthusiasts Terry Ann Wakeman and Tom Charters. At the event, their Series 1 “Cow” loses power and is found to have a head gasket blown between cylinders three and four; with help from friends, they attempt a field repair using fine copper wire and JB Weld, successfully get it running, and immediately test it on the trails while reacting to viral comments on Jenna’s video and hoping to get MacGyver’s Richard Dean Anderson to see it. 00:00 Show intro and crew 01:29 Warn  8274 gets beefier 04:30 Waterproofing and service debate 06:10 Fiat Ferves Ranger listing 08:21 Heading to Mendo Recce 09:18 Visiting Terry Ann Wakeman 13:03 Tom Charters stop and Highway 1 17:52 Arriving at Salmon Creek Ranch 19:43 Trail prep and tire chains 21:26 80-inch loses power 24:12 Field diagnosis head gasket 26:14 Camp Breakdown Drama 26:41 Diagnosing Blown Gasket 28:47 Copper Wire Bodge Plan 31:45 JB Weld Overnight Cure 33:43 Morning Start And Misfire 36:48 Trail Test And Recovery 38:48 Jeremy Stories And Turkey 40:07 Viral Reel And Merch Ideas 43:54 Mean Comments Readback 48:12 MacGyver Reaction Quest 50:26 Wrap Up And Next Time Steve Beres hosts The Underpowered Hour with Ike Goss, joined by Linus Tremaine and Jenna Fribley (with Liza Beres present), covering news and an event recap.

    Defender Trophy Trials Recap: featuring Nathaniel Biggs

    Steve Beres and Ike Goss welcome listeners to The Underpowered Hour, share two major Jaguar Land Rover safety recalls (a widespread DC-to-DC converter issue that can cut drivetrain power and affect brakes/lights, and a 2026 Defender fuel-tank defect that could leak or cause fire), then interview Defender Trophy trials finalist Nathaniel Biggs alongside Jenna Fribley about the North American Defender Trophy event near Stave Lake, British Columbia. Nathan describes team-based challenges including knot-tying and tripod skills, a high-lift jack winch task, interviews, a ropes course, a large-group “pencil” coordination game, compass navigation to collect codes, a run carrying a rotopax, night driving, and a group recovery using people power. Day two included vehicle-focused tasks like a wood-pyramid pull, a low bridge build, an off-road course with hole-punch targets, a mudflats trials-style navigation drive, and a tire-retrieval/change challenge. They discuss unclear scoring, strong camaraderie, and Nathan advancing to a New York stage announcement for who goes to Africa, before closing with Destination Defender info and teasing “Headgasket Gate.”

    Team Overland Her Update!

    Steve Beres and Ike Goss discuss a Range Rover presence at Milan Design Week celebrating Range Rover Bespoke through a three-chapter installation—“memory and color,” “memory and motif,” and “memory and material”—including films, illustrations, embroidery, soundscape, and a one-off Range Rover Bespoke commission called the “Pearl of Tay,” inspired by the River Tay in Scotland, along with furniture partner pieces. Joined by Jenna Fribley and Liza Beres, they shift to updates on a shop project: building a 1972 two-door Range Rover for desert racing. They postpone an all-female, all-American Dakar plan and pivot to running the NORRA Baja 1000 in late April/early May 2027, citing easier domestic logistics and a more open, party-like event with classic-vehicle classes. They cover rule-book-driven build decisions (carburetion requirements, roll-cage compliance across rule sets, wheel-size exemptions), current roll-cage fabrication progress, plans for a YouTube build series, and challenges keeping the original dash while fitting safety bars, and they ask viewers with NORRA experience to help with logistics and accommodations. They also note plans to run the Rebelle in the fall.

    Pollyanna Reaches Texas!

    Steve Beres and Ike Goss open with news from the UK about a military Defender towing a trailer that swerves to avoid a car on the motorway, flips multiple times, scatters gear across the road, and injures two soldiers. They then check in live from the SCAR event in Texas with Tom Pickford and the Pollyanna crew, who completed a 2,850-mile trip across the southern United States with their main issue being a snapped fan belt at the Louisiana border; they discuss public reactions, route highlights including Mobile, New Orleans, Cajun country, and Galveston, and the Barbara Toy tribute run and its impact. The episode closes with a Bring a Trailer feature on a refurbished 1994 Defender 90 300Tdi loaded with accessories, heavy rope, and diamond plate, bidding around $12,000.

    Pollyanna’s Great Tour: Barbara Toy Tribute Run to Texas + Land Rover News

    Steve hosts without Ike  at first and checks in with Tom Pickford, Greg Fitzgerald, Bill Cooper, and Laura Stacey as they drive Pollyanna—Barbara Toy’s famed Series I Land Rover—across the southern U.S. toward the Texas Rover Club’s SCAR event honoring Toy. They discuss how the trip came together after Jaguar Land Rover brought Pollyanna to Pebble Beach, the convoy support vehicles, early mechanical quirks from year-old fuel, recreating Toy’s Jacksonville Beach moment with the mayor, and efforts to preserve and expand Toy’s legacy through barbara-toy.com, surviving letters, and the book The Free Lives of Barbara Toy, plus challenges republishing her out-of-print books (only In Search of Sheba is currently reprinted). Back in studio, Steve and Ike note Tim Slessor’s death, a Tom Holland Series Land Rover ad, and a Liam Neeson horror-comedy featuring Land Rovers. 00:00 Ike Is Out Today 00:39 Hotel Internet Fixes 01:32 Naming The Expedition 02:19 Meet The Pollyanna Crew 03:59 Why Recreate The Journey 06:52 Picking Up Pollyanna 07:24 JFK Versus Newark 08:49 On The Road Glitches 12:10 Laura Joins The Ride 14:45 Club Shirts And Walmart 15:56 Bill And The Support Cars 17:40 Writing And Publishing Plans 19:22 Saving Barbara Toy History 22:51 Recreating Jacksonville Beach 23:38 Family Ties And Legacy 25:16 Rescuing Barbara’s Archive 26:08 Letters Become a Book 26:39 Hunting Global Ephemera 27:41 Reprinting the Travelogues 29:27 Pollyanna and Lost Vehicles 31:32 Why the Books Are Rare 33:18 Secondhand Shop Strategies 34:24 Farewell and Modern Contrast 36:38 Land Rover News Roundup 38:02 Tom Holland Series Ad 39:36 Tattoo Banter Detour 40:42 Pollyanna Trip Check-In 44:16 Liam Neeson Zombie Film 46:35 Wrap Up and Next Check-In

    Steve Beres and Ike Goss discuss the newly revealed Freelander, debating whether the images show a real production vehicle or a concept pushed out after a crash-test leak, and they comment on its bold styling, screen-heavy interior, and unusual seating and door design. They cover Land Rover news including Tiger Woods rolling a Range Rover in an alleged DUI incident, a viral Sudbury car-park video featuring a machete-wielding motorbike theft and a Defender intervening, and a reported 61% jump in JLR sales alongside jokes about Jerry McGovern’s departure. Ike shares Pangolin4x4 shop updates on a repeatedly botched transmission rebuild and the importance of correct tolerances, plus progress on two Michigan Land Rovers bought sight unseen.
