    Amazing car stories and life stories
    Sam clearly knows what car people want to talk about but also knows how to create and generate such compelling stories and interviews that if you aren’t inclined to cars whatsoever they’re amazing stories. The fact that they are car related is an addictive bonus! Love this podcast! Sam is great!
  • The best Rover podcast
    Fantastic
    Heard Jason Cammisa’s interview w the host of this and thought I’d check it out. This is 60 Minutes caliber interviewing. Fantastic.
