Randy interviews comedy writer and podcaster Spike Feresten, host of the wildly popular Spike's Car Radio podcast. They talk about sharing insider car craziness with the masses, the endless learning curve of car collecting, Spike's upcoming trip to Newport for the Audrain Concours (and mansion peeping), grading the Ineos Grenadier, what your Bentley convertible says about you, his Bronco Heritage and vintage Range Rover obsessions, his recent charity auctions, and celebrity lurkers in the BaT comments.
The conversation moves on into playing the advice columnist on Patreon, the hypercarification of Monterey Car Week, what to do when your teenager starts driving (and flying or riding motorcycles!), and the ongoing rebirth of Willow Springs.
