    #205 - Mike & Zach of Fat Cats

    For the final episode of the Texas Series, we sit down with Mike and Zach of Fat Cats at EMG, European Motor Gruppe, in the heart of Houston. What started as pixel cars and forum days in the mid-2000s turned into one of the most recognizable grassroots drift crews in the country. We talk about the early Fat Cats era, the shift to bright team colors, Final Bout memories, surviving Hurricane Harvey on the way to an event, and what it really takes to run a German specialty shop while staying fully invested in drifting. This one feels more like a live hangout than an interview—stories bouncing back and forth, plenty of laughs, and a real look at how long-term friendships keep a scene alive. @fatcats_fatcats @zachtriggs @emg_houston Check out our Sponsors!

    #203 - The Unsung Heroes of Cars

    We have a conversation about forgotten cars, weird automotive history, and the machines that somehow still live rent-free in enthusiast culture. From Saab turbos and Nissan Laurels to minivans, Supras, and drift cars, the episode bounces between stories, strong opinions, and the random tangents that come with talking cars for too long.

    #202 - Trip To The Pond Recap

    Javi and Karl recap their weekend at Trip to the Pond in Alabama at Mid Pond. The episode gets into the atmosphere of the event, how the cars held up, close calls on track, late-night grilling sessions, meeting internet friends in real life, and why this year felt different from every Pond before it. They also answer listener questions about driving, media, car setup, painting helmets, drifting culture, and what makes an event actually memorable. Check out our Sponsors!

    #201 - Collin Bernard: Drifting at 14, Pro-Am at 16 & Building It His Way

    Collin Bernard joins us for Episode 4 of the Texas Series, recorded inside The Shop Houston. At just 24 years old, Collin has already lived multiple chapters in drifting—starting in Louisiana, competing in Pro-Am at 16 in a built BMW, and eventually walking away from a potential Formula Drift path to build something on his own terms. We get into his early sim days, Lone Star Drift, Gas Monkey sponsorship moments, and how Knuckle Up Texas helped him rediscover why he started drifting in the first place. From go-karts to R35 GT-Rs to one of the cleanest S13 Silvias in the country, this episode is about growth, self-awareness, and choosing your own lane. @collindoesdrifting @theshophouston Check out our Sponsors!

    #200 - Can We Solve Conspiracy Theories?

    Episode 200 marks a milestone and brings things back around to conspiracy theories, 100 episodes after the last time the topic came up. The room is full, the conversation is loose, and the table runs through a mix of ideas with everyone throwing in their take as it goes. Some get shut down quickly, others turn into longer debates, and a few just stay open. It’s unfiltered and goes wherever it leads. Check out our Sponsors!

    #198 – Jimmy Yates: Knuckle Up Texas & Houston’s Drift Culture

    Jimmy Yates joins us for Episode 3 of the Texas Series, recorded at his garage in Houston. We get into the full origin story—from getting arrested street racing in high school, to discovering drifting, to becoming one of the driving forces behind Houston’s stylized drift culture. Jimmy breaks down the early Final Bout days, the Essence Garage era, and how Knuckle Up was built to protect and elevate a certain standard of style in drifting. We also dive deep into car setups, aero philosophy, SR turbo debates, and why money can’t buy taste. This one is about culture, intention, and building something that lasts. @jyw0rld @knuckleup.tx Check out our Sponsors!
