#157 - Q&A: June 2025 | AFTER-HOURS
In this laid-back live episode, Frankie and Karl are joined by Jesus from the shop for a chaotic and hilarious Q&A session. No guest, no script—just unfiltered shop banter and a whole lot of nonsense.Topics range from Ouija boards and near-death theories to business advice, dream deja vu, and whether 100 gorillas could beat 25 velociraptors. You’ll also get a spontaneous review of 28 Years Later, talk about V8 swaps in weird chassis, and reflections on scary movies and being afraid of the dark.Be sure to leave us a review if you are enjoying this podcast!

#156 - Damien Scott of Car Shop Karoshi & SmileXDeath
Damien from Car Shop Karoshi and SmileXDeath returns for one of the most unhinged and hilarious episodes we’ve ever recorded. We talk about his upcoming event — the SmileXDeath Challenge — going down October 3rd–5th at Lake Erie Speedway in Pennsylvania. Inspired by classic Option videos and old-school JDM events, the SmileXDeath Challenge brings the fun back to drifting with a throwback feel and unique format.But like all great episodes, we go way off the rails. Fast food obsessions, mutant spiders at a pig farm-based shop, public bathroom etiquette, VR drifting, boner stories, church trauma, and a surprise flashing on the highway — it’s all here.Warning: this episode gets raunchy. Maybe don’t listen with your kids in the room.@powerom3nBe sure to leave us a review if you are enjoying this podcast!

#155 - Daring Ones Drift Team
In this episode, we finally get all three members of the Daring Ones Drift Team — Ron, John, and Eric — in the studio. We talk about their start in drifting, the struggles of building and maintaining reliable drift cars, turbo kit regrets, axle carnage, and Eric's NC Miata journey.

#154 - Aftermath of the Open House
The Open House came and went—and it might’ve been a once-in-a-lifetime kind of thing. In this episode, we look back on the entire experience: the turnout, the surprises, what went right, and what we’d change. Whether you were there or just watched it unfold on social media, this is the full behind-the-scenes recap of a day we won’t forget… and might never repeat.Be sure to leave us a review if you are enjoying this podcast!

#153 - Prelude to the Open House
In this episode, we take a more laid-back approach and let the conversation flow. We talk about the upcoming open house this weekend and the stress that comes with trying to pull it all together. From there, things go off the rails—in the best way possible. We touch on the disturbing fact that George Washington had slave teeth, dive into the hypothetical battle of 100 men vs. 1 gorilla, and crack open some MREs for a taste test. To no one’s surprise, Karl liked it. It’s chaotic, it’s ridiculous, and it’s exactly what you'd expect from us.Be sure to leave us a review if you are enjoying this podcast!
