Friends, we’ve had a minor technological setback and we’re breaking in a new computer this week.  Moving from a 2009 laptop to a 2019 laptop comes with a new set of procedural challenges.  Mickey hopes to have it all ironed out in a couple of days, and will update you as soon as possible. We hope to have the next episode of The Thing About Cars out as soon as possible.

Your Support

Your support via Patreon will facilitate some of the peripheral upgrades we must also make at this time. (A firewire hard-drive won’t readily talk through a Thunderbolt port, it seems. Yes, we said firewire.) We’ve been producing The Thing About Cars for over three years with virtually no sponsor support. Your help will keep the show free of advertisements.  


TTAC welcomes special guest John Montgomery to talk about the upcoming Italian Car Day in Atlanta. Details can be found at https://www.italiancardayatlanta.com/. We cover a listener question about Porsche’s competing in LeMans. And another one about high-mileage oil: if it’s better for your engine, why don’t we just use that from the start? Dave continues the discussion on midlife-crisis cars: Midlife Crisis On A Budget. Mickey takes the gang through LOTS of Italian car trivia which makes Ben want to dunk his head in a bucket of spaghetti.
