Hank Watson's Garage Hour - Cars, Trucks, Beers & Guns

What does your Second Amendment right to defend your person, people and property have to do with the government-funded effort to reinvade rural lands with man-eating (and livestock-eating, dog-eating, kid-eating and small car-eating) apex predators?  Federal interference in your life.  …Government overreach, bureaucratic N.I.M.B.Y.ism, a collectivist enthusiasm for a forced march into urban squalor, and the slippery statist fever dream of an empowered state at the expense of you, me and we - the independent American.  Sh!t’s getting weird fast - opt in to protect yourself...

Gearhead Consultants and Garage Hour hosts Justin Case and Marking Time met up high above the city to watch it all burn during our recent eclipsalypse.  Rounds were chambered, pizza from Sprouts was et, and beers from Red Leg, Pike’s Peak, Outer Range and Dry Dock were sipped, but unfortunately, no pepperoni armed pajama perp apocalypse was thwarted, not even in the driveway.  Fortunately, Justin and Justmark didn’t mind missing “shoot, shovel and shut up” because doin’s were to be discussed: a positive word or three about hybrid automotive technology, the growing dumbness...

Hank Watson's Garage Hour - Cars, Trucks, Beers & Guns

So much good stuff…  From better and worse James Bonds (Connery versus Moore, the right and wrong Brosnhan… Brosnan…  Brosnahan…. Remington Steele, and the “other” Bonds) to Lotus Esprit (and which one) versus DB5, DB7, 750, and AMX versus Javelin, the Gearhead Consultancy promises to ricochet off the point.  Bond guns.  Bond villains.  Octopussy versus A View to a Kill.  Pussy Galore versus Verper Lynn.  Add to that a celebration of crappy guns, like an A5 Remington 1911 that shoots itself, a break-action Rossi that only shoots on safe, and...

More Episodes

Some times you feel like a nut (such as after an episode of the Garage Hour), and some times the recording software miscodecs a segment and you have to redrop the file raw.  Whoops.  So!  …Here’s the lost November episode of the show the gearhead goons warned you about - chock full of the goodness you demand - so at least there’s that:  making freeways fun (especially in an uncorked 5.0), the Mr. Dustin Report (Miatas and dollars and go-fast habits), the UPS chick getting truckjacked (and another lady losing a bag of space tools because it wasn’t from Louis Vitton - in space!), Fisker preplans its flight from Kalifornistan, Tesla versus Toyota versus the same failing bureaucleptocracy, more guns for everyone (1 mill just last month), fewer rules from the ATF (Dems can’t buy a law, let alone a vowel), and an orthodontist in North Carolina who’s giving away Glocks (because why not?).

There’s always more: cops have a tough job so be nice (especially in NY), fun fuzzy music from the ‘70s, why we all should want more forest fires and CO2, hunting two-headed whitetails in Canadia, and who needs enemies when you have family?
