Episode 122 James here! Welcome back to another episode of the PowerWorks podcast joining me as always is Glenn Power from PowerWorks Garage. We're here to dive deep into the world of cars, sharing practical advice and engaging discussions that'll keep you revved up. Make sure to subscribe and hit that notification bell, so you never miss an episode! In our bustling "shoe box studio" at PowerWorks Garage, we've got some incredible topics to explore today. Let me share a personal experience with you, folks. Remember when we discussed radiators and coolants in one of our previous podcasts? Not long after, I encountered a coolant leak in my car. It was a wake-up call, reminding me that those plastic tanks attached to radiators can develop cracks over time, leading to annoying leaks. It's a common issue, but one that's often overlooked. Now, let's get down to business and talk about handling coolant leaks because, trust me, you don't want to mess around with this. Glenn, my man, take it away. Glenn emphasizes the importance of strict adherence to the rules when dealing with coolant leaks. He warns about the dangers of trying to top up coolant by the roadside. Opening the hood in such scenarios? Not a good idea, folks. It can lead to additional risks. Glenn advises that if your car starts overheating, turn it off immediately to prevent further damage. Safety first, always! Here's a valuable insight from yours truly, folks. If your car overheats, please make sure to place a reflective triangle safe from your vehicle before even thinking about opening the hood. Safety should be our top priority. You can just pull over to the right side of the road and turn off that engine immediately. Glenn chimes in with deeper knowledge of the repercussions of multiple overheating incidents. He shares a Land Rover case where overheating led to head gasket failure. And let me tell you, that's a nightmare. If not addressed promptly, it can even lead to hydraulicking the engine. Trust me, you don't want that bill! Repairing a head gasket can cost you a pretty penny, folks. But fear not! We're here to help you avoid those hefty repair costs. By following the correct protocol when dealing with an overheating car, you can save yourself from major headaches down the road. So, if you're as passionate about cars as we are and want to gain insights into car maintenance, repairs, and everything automobile-related, tune in to the PowerWorks podcast with James and Glenn. Join us on our car-filled journey, and let's rev up our engines together! That's all for today, folks. Stay safe on the road, and we'll catch you in the next episode of the PowerWorks podcast.

James Here. I am thrilled to share this podcast short with you, where Dr. Jenna Burton and I explore the exciting world of non-surgical aesthetic treatments. These treatments, such as hydration boosters, fillers, and onic acid injections, can help you achieve that natural, radiant look we all desire. These treatments can enhance your natural glow by providing your skin with essential hydration. Our expert discussions will provide valuable insights you won't miss. Here are some key takeaways: 1. Non-surgical treatments can hydrate your skin, leaving it fresh and dewy. 2. Natural-looking aesthetic treatments are becoming increasingly popular as they enhance your features without requiring a significant financial or time commitment. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/podaholiks/message
James here. In this DocTalk podcast short Dr Jenna and I had a fantastic conversation about fillers. When used correctly, we discovered that fillers can enhance lips and significantly improve skin hydration levels. However, it's important to remember that fillers should only be a complementary part of your beauty routine rather than the focus. Of course, fillers are only for some people. Jenna shares that the beauty of fillers lies in their ability to enhance and restore, not just inflate. She prefers to keep her patients looking fresh and natural by occasionally using a touch of Botox. We also discussed how overly plumped faces can make someone appear older than their actual age, and we debunked several myths about fillers. Did you know that fillers can last 6 months to 2 years and break down evenly once injected?
