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

So much good stuff:  why Johnny Cab is planning to kill you, why nobody wants electric cars, why gov't choices aren't, why electric cars are a social contagion too, why gov't action is an inverse penalty, why more CO2 is a good thing, why 60% of new cars can never be electric, why artificial intelligence isn't, and why robot cars are causing new and innovative traffic jams. Also, F-16 flyovers, ho...

Do you have the walnuts to stop and grab that sweet thing you saw on this morning's commute?  The Gearhead Consultancy is here to help, with suggestions (and excellent results) from our adventures in exploiting the retention-disabled.  ...Because Found On Road Awesome!   We catalog one month's grabs: a D-ring and hitch-block, channel-locks and flush-cuts, an air chuck and some serious scissors (al...

We're busy building things and fixing stuff, so have a rundown: - used-car prices gone crazy (again), w/ financial pressures, interest and inflation hikes, shortages of cars/parts/money - misbegotten gov't overreactions making the aforementioned worse - manufacturer costs inflated by electric car unicorn farts - rules for paying to attention to used-car prices (follow what you know) - some side hi...

Oi vey! Americans just want to defend their home, family and property, but grabby bureaucrats and Big Gov't fans want to defang the everyday man and force his compliance.  The Garage Hour goons have updates for you about what's going on: Creepy Joe Meat Puppet's executive orders, tremendous funding for federal targeting, pinkos versus a well armed citizenry, what's a male Karen, the degredation of...

This is a test (new uploading technique), but it's also gearhead goodness - all the stuff you like.  Safe shopping for online scores?  Walkin' Dude flash-fries a water buffalo?  Wiring and transpirins' (do all wires matter)?  Do you flash the guy who doesn't belong in the #1 lane?  If you dig a hole in England, is there a bomb or a skeleton in it?  ...And what's more important, your right to priva...

Invent a better mousetrap and they'll beat a path to your door, or, in the case of the gearheads at the Garage Hour, do an episode full of fun homeownery crap and everyone will want more.  ...Because we'd been planning to spend an hour with formerly Silent Sean (head in the bag, mind in the gutter) tuning up the deadbolts at Castle de Sack, what better time to capture some more easy to-dos that'll...

Alright, gearhead here: Which came first - harsh I.P.A.s or histper sippers? Dwindling dollars cause big dogs to suffer the same fate as big cars and big homes? Does your 7500lb one-week chargemobile make for good transportation or a big paperweight? Got to love big 'Benzes on the Autobahn.  Also, gas prices are now lower than electricity by the mile, and R.I.P. Robbie Knievel. More fun: Fatso Jet...

If it's snowing igloos and narwhales outside, you might as well do something in (let your home be a canvas for your genius).  The Gearhead Consultancy also knows fine homeownerin', so this episode's got three-way switches (fix the travellers, don't be one), municipalities' rules for wiring (no dimmers for you), firewood and gas logs (because chainsaw), making your utility drawer an expansion of ca...

"The more I learn, the less I know." said everyone, always - it's time to get your geek on with some off-the-wall thinking.  With tacos full of bell and turbos full of charge (and a guest appearance by Glorvox the Massive), the gearhead goons put words to cold batteries and warm wi-fi (and the shame that's what happened to the nameplates "Lightning" and "Hummer"), as well as why CO2 is good (we li...

Let's spread some real on now that the good day is done - the Garage Hour goons have hit 2023 like a dump truck full of boba and we're getting it all over the place: freak out the neighbors with your old-school drone, then fix things because the courts came down on farmers' side against John Deere (Steve Wozniak isn't wrong - your right to repair is a big deal).  Then it's upgrade versus Green Hel...

Gearheads giving geeky goodness - what could be better for Christmas?  There's gobs of great holiday happiness here, plus a few gifts you shouldn't give. Putting some 2A under a real tree?  You and 16,000,000 other Americans this year.  Concealed-carry helpers are grand too.  Making the effort matters - you don't want to mistakenly send someone to Kalifornistan and its reanimation of zombie uncons...

Prepping versus being prepared: what's it take to keep the little things from killing you when it's snowing icebergs and polar bears (because there's no second chances at zero degrees), and intelligence versus smarts for dumb stuff like tires and recovery (because the difference between a minor inconvenience and a major one in cold weather is you). More fun: western actors and movies you didn't kn...
