    Episode 22: RJ Diaz

    RJ Diaz is a big part of the Bay Area custom car & traditional lowrider world and I was stoked to get a chance to talk cars with him for this episode of the podcast. His 1973 metalflaked and panel painted Buick Riviera “The Mothership” excellently showcased his taste and talents and is one of the many things we covered in this fun late-night episode. RJ has been building cars for a long time and he had a lot of great insight into how he approaches doing custom fabrication work & installing hydraulics at his new business RJ’s Hydraulics!

    ‘Christine’ 2018 Halloween Special!

    The first ever Halloween Special is here! This episode is a joint-effort between Bob & Aaron of the Wheels of Confusion Podcast with Nic & Josie of Bomb City. In this episode we watch and discuss the John Carpenter & Steven King 1983 masterpiece “Christine”. If you haven’t seen this movie before we’d recommend watching it first, but there’s still plenty of non-Christine conversation that you can still appreciate without being too familiar with the film. Beware, shitters of the world! Recorded in an echoey hotel room in Lancaster, CA October 2018. The post ‘Christine’ 2018 Halloween Special! appeared first on .
