What really makes a car show great? We kick things off by turning the mic over to you—our fans—sharing the best takes straight from our Facebook page on what separates the must-see shows from the parking-lot duds.

Then we’re joined by Jeff Morgan from the Wisconsin Camaro Club, who drops the details on a couple of can’t-miss 2026 events, including a massive Camaro gathering at Road America that’s already shaping up to be legendary.

Next up, Ali from Iola swings by with the scoop on the Iola Car Show Swap Summit happening February 1st—if you love deals, parts, and bench-racing, this one’s for you.

After that, Kyle takes us back in time with another killer history lesson, before Beth fires up the Buzz with a rundown of upcoming events you’ll want on your calendar.

And of course, we close it out with everyone’s favorite wildcard: “Sh*t Al Says.” This week? Let’s just say it’s borderline offensive. You’ll have to listen and decide for yourself. 😬

Turn it up, strap in, and welcome back to Hot Rod Tuesday.

What a great night on Hot Rod Tuesday! We had the honor of sitting down with Ken and Scott from the Maui Classic Cruisers. Ken founded the club way back in 1974, and hearing the history and passion behind it was something special.

Anyone who’s been to Maui knows it’s more than just a vacation destination—it may be the most beautiful place on earth. The native Hawaiian culture is incredibly welcoming, and as we learned, the only thing that makes it better is hot rods. We dove deep into what hot rodding looks like Island Style, and now we’re more fired up than ever to visit in person. Make sure to like and follow the Maui Classic Cruisers on Facebook and Instagram!

We wrapped things up with Upcoming Events with The Buzz, and once again Beth and Al danced dangerously close to the line of decency—or possibly trampled right over it—with another unforgettable installment of “The Shit Al Says.” 🌴🔥🚗

Hot Rod Beth filled us in on some upcoming events you’ll want to put on your calendar, and of course, we wrapped things up with everyone’s favorite segment…

Buckle up—this is an episode you don’t want to miss.

This week on the Hot Rod Tuesday Podcast, we kick things off with Dave Christie from the Bulletproof Garage Facebook group. Dave shares an awesome story about helping a 16-year-old get started in the hobby by gifting him a 1970 GMC pickup—and the real highlight was the incredible community support that followed, with people stepping up with parts and gift cards to make it happen.

Next, we’re joined by Jennifer from Main Street Memories in Tomahawk, Wisconsin, to talk about their long-running car show held every Memorial Day Weekend—a tradition that’s been cruising strong for over 30 years.

Kyle drops a little automotive trivia by teaching us that Chevy once made a Model T truck (yeah… that one gets interesting), and Beth reminds everyone about the Car Club Bowling & Chili Dump happening Saturday at Sussex Bowl.

We wrap it all up with another installment of “The Shit That Al Says,” where Al tells the story of a trip to a local drugstore that definitely did not go according to plan.

Hot rods, good people, and a few laughs—don’t miss it! 🚗🔥

This week on the Hot Rod Tuesday Podcast, we’re loaded with car culture, community, and a little bit of chaos.

First up, we sit down with Breeze from the VW Collective in Milwaukee — a car club that’s truly doing it right. From quality builds to strong community involvement, these folks are setting the standard. They host several events throughout the year, including an upcoming fundraiser on January 10th in Franklin, WI. If you’re in the area, definitely check it out and support a great cause.

Then we’re joined by Wolfman Troy, talking about his upcoming celebration of Elvis’ birthday and what fans can expect from this rock-and-roll tribute.

We also dive into some automotive history with Kyle, catch up on The Buzz with Beth, and—of course—Al may have crossed the line during “The Sh*t Al Says.” But honestly… that’s nothing new.

Buckle up and enjoy another packed episode of Hot Rod Tuesday!

In this episode of Hot Rod Tuesday, we sit down with legendary NASCAR driver Mark Martin to revisit his roots in ASA and ARTGO, his days racing in Beaver Dam, and his thoughts on the state of modern NASCAR.

Next, we’re joined by another icon: Mark Dietrich, the unmistakable voice of Great Lakes Dragaway, who shares stories from behind the mic and decades of drag racing history.

We also take a meaningful moment to talk about one of my own heroes—my dad—for a personal look at the people who helped shape me the way I am.

We wrap things up with The Buzz with Beth and, of course, The Sh*t That Al Says, closing the show with plenty of laughs and a little chaos the way only Al can deliver.
