Alex interviews community favorite Bill Noon of @Bill_Noon and @Symbolic_International on issues as wide-ranging as tractor envy; American Graffiti as a formative experience; seeing the world via Greek freighter; seeing the Persian Gulf via leaky US Navy minesweepers armed with boarding cutlasses; getting Tom Sawyered into flying a P-3 Orion on leave; visiting the shell of a Ferrari dealership in a Kuwaiti war zone; becoming serious about cars with a string of Ferraris; getting into vintage racing with help from the casual generosity of very wealthy clients, leading to a dizzying array of special on-track experiences; trading a Le Mans-winning 962 straight across for a 250 Testa Rossa; Symbolic International's time as the Noah's Ark of collectible car dealerships; getting the BaT celebrity treatment while doing photo shoots off the beaten path; the wisdom of prepaid parking tickets at Monterey; learning from one's mistakes; imperfections as the key to success; how to handle arguments in the comments; and the hidden bargains still to be had on BaT.

Alex sits down with Randy, Zac, and Howard to discuss cars they need to see (or see again) before their inevitable (but let us hope distant) demise; registration slips as keepsakes; makes or models that they've never managed to put eyes on; a theoretical invite to use an Amphicar for its intended purpose; the abandoned cars of Dubai and Detroit; breathtaking finds in museums; the likelihood of the Sultan of Brunei and Sergio Perez being BaT Podcast listeners; dirt track dreams; when it's better to drive than to own; anticipation for the upcoming F1 season, starting with podium position 2; defunct American street circuits; the innate luxury of a '32 Ford hot rod; one (1) dad joke; strong opinions on the XJ220; and the humdrum inanity of driving a borrowed 250 SWB as a teenager.
