Greetings from Throwin’ Wrenches Studio A, where this week we’re calling ourselves the auto podcast that doesn’t stay parked for too long.  Eric and Daryl have been enjoying some late summer outdoor time and we have tons to talk about! We’re also hoping that everyone is taking care and enjoying what’s left of the summer season.  If you aren’t a Patreon supporter, then you missed an exclusive 49-minute pre-show recording that talks about Eric’s stinky feet.  (True story) Does that help make the sale? Patreon supporters help make this great programming possible and we promise to only mention trench foot a few times a year.Read More →

http://throwinwrenches.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/TW-35-Final.mp3 Here at Throwin’ Wrenches Podcast, we love all things automotive.  But when the phrase Cannonball Run is uttered, our ears perk up! Whether its the classic 1981 Hal Needham film featuring Burt Reynolds and the hilarious cast of characters to the real-life unsanctioned Cannonball Baker Sea-to-Shining-Sea Memorial Trophy Dash. There’s something appealing about hopping into a purpose-built car or truck and blazing across the entire United States in just over a day’s time. It takes real guts to put it all on the line just to prove that you (and your well-oiled machine) can endure a non-stop run across the United States.   What startedRead More →

http://throwinwrenches.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/tw34-final.mp3 We’re glad you’re back for another installment of the auto podcast that values its prep time… or perhaps we’re the auto podcast that needs some Red Bull before the show.  At any rate, we’re still working on the catchphrase. Thanks for catching up with us. For those who said Episode 32 was a high watermark, we appreciate that. We’ll try to top it with this episode. And the next. And the one after that. In all seriousness we have some exciting guests in the hopper for the next few shows, so be sure to subscribe and follow along. You won’t want to miss what’sRead More →

Throwin’ Wrenches – 31 http://throwinwrenches.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/tw31.mp3 Welcome back! It’s official, we are “The Auto podcast that will not phone-in another show!”… Well, that’s what we swore on this episode anyway. (We are still working on the catchphrase.) Episode 30 was our “phone-in” show, and we know that the audio quality was not to our standards. It was a tough call last month when we made the show. Content is king in the social media world, but sometimes you have to concede that no content might have been better. Enough with the self flagellation. On with Episode 31! Recorded in the Scott Garage following strict social distancingRead More →

Throwin’ Wrenches – Episode 30 Welcome to the Auto Podcast that is hosted by “essential employees” Daryl and Eric had a full week of work… Because we are essential! While navigating friends, family and kids all running amok with the social distancing orders that Illinois put into place last weekend, it made it hard to get time for a show. In the meantime, we are still working on the catchphrase. One will stick sooner or later. We know that Eric sometimes “phones it in” when we do the show… But that is literally what he did in this episode. Social distancing has left us inRead More →

The cure to self quarantine:  Well produced Auto Racing (kinda) on Youtube!  Hours of it! While Daryl is cruising the tourist attractions of Orlando…  I’m stuck home “cyber-cruising” YouTube. When I am not watching Donut Media or Expedition Overland, I am browsing for new channels and talent.  Usually, my night ends up on a Russian Traffic-fail channel.  (Dont even judge me, I know you watch them too!)  Good news though, I have found a new channel to love on, my current obsession is a YouTube page called 3DBotMaker Die Cast Racing. Find me a kid who had hot-wheels tracks in the 70’s or 80’s thatRead More →

Patreon, we talk about it on the show, here is the info. Lets be straight shooters here…  We are not hurting for bucks and the show is not in risk of going bust.  BUT, we do throw money into every episode of the show.  Not to mention, the host’s wives love seeing our server fees and Facebook ads show up on the credit card.  That was sarcasm. To this point, all money that has been given to us by our sponsors has been put directly back into social media advertising.  We would love more listeners, so that is our current focus with any fundraising.
