bubzki2 ,

Great chemistry paired with actual car knowledge.

Great podcast for those looking to get a deeper dive into car culture. Ryan and Erik focus on some esoteric issues, but also more accessible, down-to-earth topics that abound from driving daily. Their knowledge depth could fills hours each week, and I defeintely learn something each time in addition to enjoying the listen!
