1. We're back!

In typical fashion, our first episode didn't go to plan. We did no prep but we do end up talking about cars we missed during our break, car we think are coming out in 2021,  and that awful BMW CES video. 


We'll try to be more prepared next time and sort out the audio sync issues.

15. Japan: the good, the bad, and the ugly

In this episode we talk about some of the challenges we face in Japan in the car world. For this episode I brought along the help of some of my buddies in Japan; Andre (@andreezy_cars), Koji (@ketakoji), Toshi (@tdogid05), and Hugo (@kaga_photo) for a no-holds barred talk. 


As usual we sort of get off topic.

Bonus Episode: I talk to some Europeans about cars

In this bonus episode to make up for the lack of car chat in the last one (sorry about that, please address your complaints to Maxx), I chat to Amin Siala (@amin.siala) who refuses to admit he's French and to Alex Babington (@alexbabington) who likes French cars. Naturally we talk about the Alpine A110, Ferraris, the ban on petrol/diesel cars in the UK for 2030, and all that jazz. 


So if you want to listen to some car chatter give this a listen. If you want to hear us talk about pizza, go back to the previous episode.

14. The great pizza debate: Pizza Hut vs Domino's

In a bizarre turn of events this once motoring related podcast has taken a sharp turn into pizza discussions. This week instead of talking about cars (because there weren't many new cars to talk about) we have instead, at the behest of Maxx, in some detail addressed the topic of Pizza Hut's decline versus Domino's. Unsurprisingly, Mitch decided to skip this one out so it was just Maxx, Tom, and Ken. 

Grab your desired pizza of choice, sit back, and we hope you enjoy this one.

13. New cars we missed last week (BMW iX, Subaru BRZ, Lamborghini Huracan STO, Maybach S580, Jeep Wrangler V8)

We're back! After missing out last week because three of us had other things to do, we're back this week with special guest Chris Morrison who talks about his eating problems. We actually do end up talking about new cars too, sort of. As usual we get quite carried away and off course. Enjoy this mess of an episode with Tom, Maxx, Mitch, and Ken.

Apologies for the wind noise in this one.

6. Aaron Chung's New Car, BMW M3/M4, Z Proto, and Men's Health

This week Aaron Chung joins Tom, Mitch, Ken, and a very late Maxx to talk about what's new in the life of Hong Kong's premiere automotive photographer, some of the new cars that's come out this week, and a lot of sexual innuendos are said. 

This one is a pretty random episode covering a bunch of topics so stick with us. It got interrupted towards the end due to technical issues with my microphone but we soldiered on.

In this podcast we decided to switch things up and record at a later time to get some people who are secretly French but pretend not to be on for some banter. Maxx Shostak and Ken Saito are joined by Zach Brehl (@zachbrehl), Amin Siala (@aminsiala), and Daniel Zizka (@danielzizka) as we try to talk about stuff such as  single-clutch transmissions, 996 vs 997, how COVID19 has changed the car scene, and why Maxx is wrong about his opinion on Jurassic Park.
