    K&F Show #358: Dallas Late Model Racing, and the 4AM Smoke Alarm Disaster // Dukes VIDEO Review S1E6 "Swamp Molly"

    In typical K&F fashion, things quickly spiral into chaos. Rob gets woken up at 4 AM by a smoke alarm only to discover water pouring out of it thanks to an upstairs bathroom flood. Bernie delivers weather with the energy of a town historian reading a plaque, the guys run through another round of Celebrity Automotive Ancillary Birthday, and a brutally accurate job-interview PSA reminds everyone that some people really do belong in the HR complaint file. Rob also shares a proud dad update as Dallas gets seat time in a late model on slicks, learning one of racing’s biggest lessons: smooth inputs, tire management, and the reality that when the grip goes away… you just learn to work with it. For the Dukes Review, the crew heads back to Season 1, Episode 6 — “Swamp Molly.” This episode marks the beginning of the crisp California look many fans associate with the show. When old family friend Swamp Molly calls in a favor from Uncle Jesse, the Dukes agree to help run what they believe is moonshine — only to discover the cargo is actually a truckload of illegal firearms. The episode delivers classic early-season action including an ice cream truck disguise, swamp landings, Rosco’s outrage at “un-American” crime, and plenty of General Lee driving. The guys also dive into production details like early General Lee quirks, background car spotting, and the raw stunt work that made the early seasons feel so authentic.

    K&F Show #357: Duvall Tribute, Dallas Kibbe Racing, and Daytona Drama // Dukes VIDEO Review S1E5 “High Octane”

    This episode of The Kibbe & Friends Show delivers a full Phase 4 blend of heart, horsepower, and Hazzard County as we celebrate the life of Robert Duvall, recap Dallas Kibbe Racing’s latest national event run, and dive headfirst into one of the strongest early Georgia-era Dukes episodes ever made — Season 1, Episode 5: “High Octane.” Before we get to Hazzard, the guys reflect on the passing of Robert Duvall and his unforgettable presence in automotive cinema — especially Days of Thunder. From Daytona 500 reactions to racing rule debates and short track chaos, Rob brings a full Dallas Kibbe Racing update, including brake failures, podium finishes, and real-world racing lessons from a five-day national event. It’s real racing talk mixed with the usual KF nonsense. Then it’s time for the Dukes Review — and “High Octane” might just be the Georgia-era sleeper hit. Uncle Jesse breaks probation for patriotic reasons (moonshine-as-fuel, naturally), Boss Hogg plots to steal the credit, and we get introduced to Sweet Tilly — Jesse’s legendary moonshine-running Ford LTD. Add in one of the hardest early-season General Lee jumps ever filmed (over a semi on Georgia Highway 20), a one-episode revenue agent, and some serious Charger nerd deep-dives from Corndog, and you’ve got an episode that reminds everyone why the Georgia-filmed shows just hit differently. The guys break down: • The semi-truck jump and which General Lee likely paid the price • Georgia filming locations and production details • The debut of Sweet Tilly • Early Boss & Rosco Laurel-and-Hardy chemistry • Why this episode feels like the true send-off to the Georgia era It’s vintage Dukes storytelling with modern car-guy commentary — exactly what Phase 4 was built for.

    K&F Show #356: Dallas Race Week, Florida Speed, and Daytona Fever // NASCAR Movie Review + Days of Thunder

    Rob is in Florida this week with Dallas kicking off his 2026 racing season at Auburndale Speedway in Winter Haven. It’s a five-day national Legends tournament — practice, qualifying, and racing every single day — with Dallas running the Semi-Pro class in the white #13. The goal this season is simple: run the biggest Legends events possible, graduate up and out of the class, and take the next step forward in his racing career. While that action unfolds in real time, we’re setting the stage for Daytona week the best way we know how. To celebrate the Daytona 500, we’re revisiting our full review of Days of Thunder — still the greatest racing movie ever made. Yes, it’s “Top Gun in a stock car,” and that’s exactly why it works. We break down the racing roots of Cole Trickle, the Harry Hogge mentorship arc, the real NASCAR influences behind the film, and why quotes like “Rubbin’, son, is racin’” still live rent-free in every race fan’s brain. Released in 1990, directed by Tony Scott, and starring Tom Cruise, Robert Duvall, Nicole Kidman, and Michael Rooker, the film earned nearly $158 million worldwide and remains a cornerstone of modern racing pop culture. If it’s Daytona week, it’s time for Days of Thunder.

    K&F Show #355: Broken Bones, Repo Chaos, and Rolls-Royce Revenge // Dukes VIDEO Review S1E4 “Repo Men”

    This episode of The Kibbe & Friends Show brings the show back to its Phase 4 sweet spot with a full-on Dukes Review of one of the best early Georgia-era episodes of The Dukes of Hazzard: Season 1, Episode 4 — “Repo Men.” It’s the perfect mix of simple Hazzard County storytelling, big laughs, and the kind of car-nerd details that only this show obsesses over — right down to the General Lee quirks, the Waylon “balladeer” narration, and why this episode still matters in Dukes lore. Rob Kibbe, Justin “Corndog” Cornette, and producer Bernie McPartland break down why “Repo Men” is a fan-favorite: Bo and Luke get pulled into a crooked car-dealer scheme involving a Rolls-Royce repo, a counterfeit ring, and some truly savage stunt payoff. Along the way, the guys spotlight what makes the Georgia episodes special — the chemistry between Bo and Luke, the early-series simplicity, and the wild practical stunts that feel like they could never happen the same way today. And of course, Corndog goes deep on General Lee specifics: the rare window-up shots, the ’68 tells, and the car-history rabbit holes that turn this review into a full Dukes enthusiast session.

    K&F Show #354: Race Season, Record Auctions & the Story Behind It All // MOVIE Review "Ford vs Ferrari"

    This episode of The Kibbe & Friends Show delivers a long-overdue review of Ford vs Ferrari, a modern racing classic that has become required viewing for car fans everywhere. With Daytona season approaching and January’s auction buzz still fresh, the timing couldn’t be better to revisit the story of Ford’s battle against Ferrari at Le Mans and the people who made it happen. It’s a film that captures the emotion, danger, and obsession behind endurance racing while telling a powerful human story along the way. Rob Kibbe, Justin “Corndog” Cornette, and producer Bernie McPartland break down why Ford vs Ferrari works on every level — from Christian Bale’s unforgettable performance as Ken Miles, to the tension between racers and the boardroom, to the brutal reality of 24-hour competition. The GT40 becomes more than just a car, it becomes a character, and the movie becomes more than just a race film. It’s a story about passion, sacrifice, and the cost of chasing perfection at full throttle.

    K&F Show #353: Quitters Day, too SIM Rigs // Dukes VIDEO Review S1E2 "Daisy’s Song"

    Welcome to Episode 353 of The Kibbe & Friends Show — and yes, this is the second show of 2026, which means we’re officially back to doing what we do best: talking cars, talking nonsense, and occasionally learning something by accident. We kick things off with Quitters Day (the second Friday in January when New Year’s resolutions go to die), debate the nation’s fittest and fattiest states, and then I take you inside my newest obsession: building a full-blown racing sim rig at home with real force-feedback hardware, a real race seat, and even a vibration unit so you can feel rumble strips in your bones. It’s part race car, part erector set, and entirely ridiculous. Then it’s time for our Dukes of Hazzard review, now available on YouTube as part of Phase 4 of the show. This week we’re breaking down Season 1, Episode 2, “Daisy’s Song,” one of the original Georgia-filmed episodes. Daisy discovers her song has been recorded — but she never got paid — which sends Bo and Luke undercover to shut down a full-blown record piracy operation run by Boss Hogg himself. This episode delivers major Dukes lore, including why the General Lee’s doors are welded shut, plus some of the earliest and best screen time for both the General and Daisy’s Roadrunner. Final score from all of us: a unanimous 10 out of 10.

    K&F Show #352: Goals for 2026 and KF Phase Four Begins!! // Dukes VIDEO Review S1E1 "One Armed Bandits"

    With 2026 officially underway, Episode 352 sets the tone for a bigger, broader year ahead for the Kibbe & Friends Show. Rob kicks things off with stories from a frozen Yellowstone adventure that included snow coaches, snowmobiles, and the kind of mechanical failure that feels right at home on this show. The guys also dig into a questionable General Lee listed on eBay, breaking down what’s wrong, what doesn’t add up, and why details matter when it comes to Dukes history. From there, the crew goes all the way back to the beginning with a review of The Dukes of Hazzard pilot episode, “One Armed Bandits.” This first outing is far edgier than most fans remember—more Smokey and the Bandit than wholesome family TV—with bar fights, crooked politics, and Daisy Duke causing trouble from the start. Rough around the edges but packed with nostalgia, this episode lays the foundation for everything that followed, including the iconic jump over Sheriff Roscoe’s car that became part of the show’s opening credits for years to come.

    KAF Show #351: Duke vs. Duke – Bo vs. Luke in the Hazard County Derby

    The Kibbe & Friends Show brings back a classic this week with a rebroadcast of one of our all-time favorite Dukes of Hazzard episodes: Season 3, Episode 13 – “Duke vs. Duke.” Released in 1981 during peak-series glory, this one throws Bo and Luke into the Hazzard County Derby—against each other. When Cooter wipes out and can’t drive, Luke steps behind the wheel of Cooter’s big-block Chevelle while Bo straps into the General Lee. Pride kicks in, egos flare, and suddenly the cousins aren’t just racing cars… they’re racing each other. From nitrous-bottle shenanigans courtesy of Roscoe, to Ma Parker’s muscle, to some of the best stunt driving the series ever filmed, this is everything we love about the Dukes wrapped into one episode. The Chevelle vs. Charger showdown, jumps, pipe-ramps, engine notes, broken parts, and that unforgettable backwards-finish stunt make it a perfect 10 episode in our book. Settle in and enjoy the ride—this is Dukes gold. The post KAF Show #351: Special Edition Christmas Break Show! // Dukes Review S3E13 “Duke vs Duke” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.
