    K&F Show #349: The Great Santa Claus Chase Returns! Toys for Tots Triumph & Pastrana’s Wildest Gymkhana Yet

    In Episode 349 of The Kibbe & Friends Show, the crew battles a few Christmas-season technical gremlins before diving straight into holiday tradition: revisiting The Great Santa Claus Chase, the one and only official Christmas episode of The Dukes of Hazzard. Rob, Corndog, and Bernie bring their signature blend of nostalgia, humor, and heart as they walk through why this episode still delivers all these years later—car chases, small-town charm, and classic Hazzard County holiday chaos included. Along the way, they also recap this year’s Toys for Tots campaign, revealing how a well-timed triple-match day turned listener generosity into more than $6,700 of impact. The guys then shift gears into full automotive pop-culture mode with an enthusiastic breakdown of the brand-new Travis Pastrana Gymkhana film, shot entirely in Australia and packed with jaw-dropping stunts. From Pastrana’s all-wheel-drive Subaru Brat “Bratteroo 9500 Turbo” to the level of cinematography and stunt precision that would make Ken Block proud, the team can’t stop raving about it. Add a weather report, some trademark KF tangents, and holiday movie teasing for next week, and Episode 349 becomes the perfect mix of Christmas spirit, horsepower, and pure KF fun.

    K&F Show #348: Christmas Kickoff, Patreon Madness, Crown Vic Taxi Codes… and ELF!

    In this week’s episode of The Kibbe & Friends Show, the crew kicks off the Christmas season with one of the most beloved holiday films of the modern era: Elf. Rob, Corndog, and Bernie dive deep into what makes this 2003 classic so timeless—from Jon Favreau’s intentional “Rankin/Bass meets live-action” style, to the practical effects and forced-perspective tricks that give the movie its handmade, storybook charm. They break down everything from Buddy’s fish-out-of-water innocence in New York, to Zooey Deschanel’s vintage-inspired performance, to the behind-the-scenes choices that turned a goofy comedy script into a heartfelt family movie that has joined the ranks of A Christmas Story and Christmas Vacation as a true annual staple. But being K&F, the review doesn’t stop at plot and characters—the guys treat Elf like a full-blown car movie. They dig into the real New York City Crown Vic taxis Buddy dodges throughout the film, talk P-codes and wheelbases, and then go full “Corndog Spec Ops” on the five different sleighs built for production—including which were stunt shells, which survived, and why the hero sleigh might secretly be Mopar-powered. If you love Christmas movies, deep-cut trivia, and automotive rabbit holes disguised as holiday cheer, this is a must-listen episode.

    K&F Show #346: Christmas Lights from Space, MCACN, and the Car Movie Review: Tommy Boy 30th Anniversary Special!

    This week on The Kibbe and Friends Show, we celebrate the 30th Anniversary of what we proudly call the greatest car movie ever made — Tommy Boy. With the release of the new 4K edition and the incredible restoration of an original movie car by director Peter Segal (now appearing at MCACN 2025), we knew it was time to bring this one back in a big way. The guys dig into fresh stories, behind-the-scenes moments, and long-lost trivia before re-running their original Tommy Boy review from Episode 126. From Bernie’s legendary news and weather segments to Corndog’s next-level Mopar knowledge, this is pure K&F gold. If you love road-trip movies, odd-couple comedy, and classic muscle cars, this episode is required listening. At the same time, the K&F family has kicked off their annual Toys for Tots fundraiser through Patreon, and the momentum is already strong. The goal is to get funds in the hands of Toys for Tots in time to make a real impact this Christmas, helping kids and families who need it most. Listener support continues to amaze us, with members upgrading memberships and stepping up in a big way. If the show has ever made you laugh, helped you escape reality for a bit, or made you love cars even more — this is your chance to give back alongside us and help create real Christmas morning magic for families who truly need it.
