Welcome to the auto podcast that can’t have Steve Brown on two shows in a row… but we probably should because he’s a great interview and a cool dude overall. If you haven’t listened to the last episode, you’ll certainly want to take it for a spin around the block. Winter is in full effect here in the Midwest, but the days are longer. In a month or so, we’ll dig the summer cars out of hibernation and prep for an exciting season of autocross, trail-running, and car shows. Until that time we have some fresh podcast content for you. In this episode, we bringRead More →

Welcome to the auto podcast that knows Cannonball Run 2 carries an odor that is not easily shaken. We will do everything in our power to avoid making a stinker of an episode to rival that movie. Obviously, if we are talking Cannonball and VinWiki, that must mean we’re hanging out with our new favorite guest, Steve Brown.  You may remember Steve from Episode 35 as we recounted his epic run on the coast-to-coast route that spans from Jacksonville, Florida to San Diego California.  He did it solo and holds a record for that run at 27 hours and 13 minutes! https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/thebeerreport/TW_42_Final.mp3 In This Episode This week, we catchRead More →

Welcome to the auto podcast that gives you the best Christmas Episodes! It’s okay to admit you loved last year’s Christmas episode. This year, we thought we’d put together another list of our ‘favorite things.’ And while you may not be able to drive to Grandma’s house this Christmas, you can still pretend we’re all driving the Dan Ryan, headed to a party in an old Chevy Astro van, all the while hoping the Christmas tree doesn’t fall off the roof.  Ladies and Gentlemen, boys and girls, we proudly present our Christmas gift to the world for 2020: The Throwin’ Wrenches Virtual Road Trip Soundtrack. Read More →

Welcome to the auto podcast that can appreciate a well-run amateur sporting organization.  That’s some love aimed directly at the Champaign County Sports Car Club.  We had hopes of getting with Dean Plumadore for Episode 40, but it didn’t work out for this time.  Nevertheless, we’ll be sure to wrangle Dean for a future show to hear all of the latest escapades. Meanwhile, you’re stuck with the two regulars. Enjoy! This show is extra long to make up for the delay! Thanks again to our Sponsors Fort’s Toyota of Pekin | Instagram Casey Law Office | Also check out Gabe’s other venture, 309Arena. Patreon A bigRead More →

Thanks for tuning in to the Automotive Podcast that CAN actually sell a car!  Eric unloaded Red Mist last week, and now can boast that he has one less car than Daryl.  Baby steps, people! We’ve got a lot of content packed into this latest show, and you won’t want to miss some of the local news updates. We also talk a fair amount about Knight Rider and why role-playing is kinda cool if your wardrobe ensemble happens to include a wicked cool 70s or 80s car. Thanks to our sponsors! Forts Toyota of Pekin Casey Law Office of Morton Yes, you read that correctly.Read More →

58 minutes of Throwin’ Wrenches with less filter than the normal show…  Thats what you get when you tune in to the Ep 39 Pre-Show. The stolen Fort’s Supra is a big topic.  We also ponder the eruption of 3 dollar car washes all over the area while the first one that popped up in Creve Coeur falls apart before our very eyes! Oh… And High School Square dancing classes…  Yeah…  We dig deep and talk about midwestern High School experiences like this in the Pre Show. Thanks to the Patreon Subscribers for your support!  Enjoy! https://www.patreon.com/posts/episode-39-43103825Read More →
