  • Episode 19 - The LA Auto Show

    3 DEC 2022 · I'm hardly a car guy, but you don't have to be when you come to the LA Auto Show, where there is something for absolutely everyone. The big theme at the the Auto Show this year was clearly electric vehicles, as nearly every single automaker had their latest and greatest technology on full display. We'll be going through the entire auto show on this episode and you'll get the perspective of a non-car enthusiast as I explore everything the automakers have to show off this year.

  • Episode 15 - The Aerospace Valley Air Show

    21 OCT 2022 · After a long hiatus of several years, the United States Air Force, courtesy of Edwards Air Force Base, brought back one of the greatest Air Shows in the country. The Aerospace Valley Air Show! Featuring dozens of static aircraft from WWII aircraft you've only seen in movies (such as Saving Private Ryan, Band of Brothers and Pearl Harbor) to concept (like the Dark Star from Top Gun) and flying demonstrations from live bombing runs to simulated dog fights in the sky. Shoutout to General Matthew W. Higer for all the hard work (and my old friends at the 412th Security Forces Squadron) for allowing the public to see their tax dollars at work and demonstrate the hard work that goes into designing and flying these unbelievable machines to defend freedom and our way of life.

  • Episode 13 - Ocotillo Wells State Vehicular Recreation Area

    7 OCT 2022 · To most people travelling our state highways and freeways, SoCal's deserts are a lifeless, endless sea of sand.

Join me this week as I rent an ATV and travel to one of our State Parks that caters almost exclusively to 4x4 vehicles and ATV's as we explore one of the many geological wonders of SoCal's deserts, the Gas Domes.

  • Episode 12 - Rodeo!

    30 SEP 2022 · This week, a bit of the country comes to SoCal in the form of Rodeo's. I attended the Sheriff's Rodeo in Devore and earlier this month, the Hesperia Rodeo in Hesperia and the Tehachapi Rodeo in Tehachapi to see what the craze is all about. I discovered Rodeo is a sport, but more like a community event like a fair, where people dress up in cowboy hats and daisy dukes and cheer on the prowess and skill of both cowboy and animal either working together or competing against each other. Is the Rodeo for you? Is it an outdated practice that's abusive or harmful to animals? Let's dive in a little on this episode! *NOTE: This episode has explicit content with the addes South Park clip. Skip it if necessary.
