On this episode of Joe Oltmann Untamed, Joe opens with scenes from Florida and Pennsylvania that raise urgent questions about student safety, parental rights, and political activism in schools. A Florida father storms into his child's school after an anti-ICE walkout puts students in harm's way concerns that proved valid when a student was struck by a car during a protest the next day. Meanwhile, a Pennsylvania principal earns praise for shutting down a similar walkout and restoring order. Joe examines how political messaging in classrooms, including explicit anti-ICE rhetoric during school events, is fueling division and pulling focus away from education and student safety.Joe welcomes automotive innovator and Ohio Gubernatorial Candidate Casey Putsch to discuss government overreach, economic decline, education reform, and restoring accountability. Casey's not afraid to call out the military-industrial complex, government overreach, and the two-party trap that's failed everyday Americans for decades. We dig into his vision for Ohio real education through trades and critical thinking, refocusing on Ohio-first priorities, and pushing back hard against federal encroachment.Colorado Updates, Joe turns his focus homeward, examining troubling reports surrounding Colorado politics, the governor's race, and public safety. He highlights controversy involving Victor Marx, questions about debate transparency, and alarming data on rising sex trafficking and legislative inaction on tougher protections for children. With thousands of students leaving Colorado public schools and families losing faith in the system, Joe confronts the hard question many parents are asking: what is the future for children in Colorado?

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1274: Today we unpack Carvana's push toward 3 million annual sales and what ADESA means for scale, a new study showing used EVs winning on long-term ownership math in a firm wholesale market, and Google's Gemini 3.1 Pro raising the stakes in the accelerating AI arms race.Carvana is doubling down on its bold goal of selling 3 million retail units annually by 2030–2035 — and ADESA is the engine under the hood. After a record 2025, the company says the runway is real.Carvana sold 596,641 vehicles in 2025, up 43%, with revenue jumping 49% to $20.3B. Net income hit a record $1.9B, and Q4 adjusted EBITDA reached $511M.CEO Ernie Garcia outlined a four-part plan: increase staffing, integrate retail production lines into more ADESA sites, build new lines, and eventually develop greenfield inspection centers.The company plans six to eight new ADESA integrations in 2026, with full buildouts costing $30–35M per site and adding 40,000 units of annual capacity each.We've got something a little tactical from this morning's Automotive State of the Union email: A new University of Michigan study says three-year-old EVs now deliver the lowest seven-year total cost of ownership in the U.S. And in today's firm Q1 wholesale market, that early depreciation story matters even more.Researchers reviewed 260,000 used listings across 17 cities, modeling price, depreciation, financing, insurance, maintenance, energy, and resale. In most cases, used BEVs came out cheapest to own.The key? Front-loaded depreciation. EVs drop harder in years one through three, lowering second-owner acquisition cost. After that, curves normalize — with battery warranty remaining as a major variable.With more off-lease EV volume coming, the opportunity is simple: buy where depreciation already did the heavy lifting and let the second buyer win on the math.Google just dropped Gemini 3.1 Pro, and early benchmarks suggest it may be one of the most powerful large language models yet. As the AI arms race heats up, the leap in “agentic” performance is turning heads across tech.Gemini 3.1 Pro is currently in preview, with general release coming soon. Observers say it's a significant jump from Gemini 3, which was already considered highly capable last November.On independent benchmarks — including Humanity's Last Exam — Google says the new model significantly outperformed its predecessor.Today's show is brought to you by ESi-Q.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1273: GM is staying lean to outmaneuver the next sales slowdown. AI's appetite for memory chips could spark a new supply squeeze across autos and tech. Retailers are proving that telling better stories sells.Show Notes with links:General Motors is rewriting its inventory playbook, running 30–40% leaner and hoping that tighter supply, stronger cash flow, and faster decision-making could turn the next cycle into a competitive advantage.S&P Global Mobility forecasts U.S. sales down 2.5% to 15.8M units as affordability and softer EV demand weigh on the market.GM is targeting a 50–60 day supply versus the pre-pandemic 100+ days.Leaner inventory gives GM more flexibility to adjust incentives in a downturn without crushing profitability.Dealers have felt the squeeze, especially on affordable models, prompting GM to stage select Trax and Trailblazer units at ports to speed delivery.CFO Paul Jacobson summed up the strategy: “It's easier to do when you have less inventory in the system because you can just respond much more quickly.”Just when the auto industry thought it survived the chip crisis, here comes round two—this time powered by AI. Data centers are devouring global memory supply, forcing automakers to brace for tighter supply, higher costs, and potential production headaches.AI data centers are soaking up global DRAM and memory production, with Western Digital and Seagate already sold out of most 2026 capacity.Memory chip prices have jumped 90% quarter-over-quarter, prompting PC makers like Dell to raise prices 15–20%.Tesla's Elon Musk says the solution may be vertical integration: “We're going to hit a chip wall if we don't do the fab.”Retailers are doubling down on something we at More Than Cars know well—storytelling sells. Brands are shifting from simply stocking products to crafting narratives that spark emotion, build loyalty, and turn casual shoppers into long-term fans.Nordstrom says department stores no longer “introduce” brands—they help tell their story and build deeper consumer connection.Five Below credits curated social storytelling—merchandising and marketing working together—for stronger engagement with younger shoppers.Under Armour's Kevin Plank says brands must inspire emotion: “The world does not need another capable apparel and footwear manufacturer.

I've written a bunch of mildly serious stuff about having BIG NO-KIDS ENERGY. I've talked with so many others — and published interviews with them! — about how they've negotiated conversations with others about not having kids, leaned in to the expansiveness of their no-kids lives, and figured out their own life priorities when they're not what society tells you they should be. But all of these conversations have been pretty, well, serious. But not having kids can be many things. More specifically, not having kids can be hilarious. Today, comedian (and not-kid-haver) Natasha Vaynblat joins the pod to answer all your questions about the awkward, unconsciously ridiculous, and straight-up offensive questions that people ask when you don't have kids — and how to figure out how to answer (sometimes seriously, sometimes with a sense of humor). I don't think any Culture Study guest has made me spit out my water as much as Natasha, so regardless of whether you don't have kids and relate immediately or DO have kids and just relate to the idea of strangers and/or supposedly beloved family members asking you inappropriate shit... I hope you almost spit out your water, too. AND GREAT NEWS: WE HAVE VERY GOOD EPISODE TRANSCRIPTS NOW!

Our guest this week, investigative journalist Leo Hohmann, asks the question Why is the Trump administration supporting Biden's Orwellian kill switches on all our automobiles as of 2026?  Hohmann further comments that Trump's advancement of a digital surveillance state is coming at us from all angles. A couple of weeks ago, 57 Republican members of Congress joined Democrats in voting down an amendment that would have cancelled the mandatory kill switch portion of the Biden bill.  The original pro-kill switch bill was drawing backlash from conservatives like Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. From alternative energy programs to AI, elites have been at the forefront of promoting boondoggle programs that enrich the few powerful members at the expense of normal, freedom-loving persons everywhere.  If it makes money and increases control of populations and cultures, it is embraced by those who would be masters of us all. For a continued analysis of the political implications of Trump's support of the surveillance state, read Leo Hohmann's Substack article “Why is the Trump administration supporting Biden's Orwellian mandatory kill switches on all new automobiles? Leo Hohmann has been a tireless and dedicated defender of freedom in America. Support him and his work.

This week, the 3 Guys are heading to Grady, South Carolina to review the 1991 rom-com Doc Hollywood starring the endlessly charming Michael J. Fox. When a fast-lane young doctor totals his Porsche in a tiny Southern town, he's sentenced to community service… but what starts as a pit stop turns into a full-on life detour. Small town. Big personalities. Questionable medical ethics. And yes — a certain ambulance driver who might just change everything. We break down the entire movie (spoilers included), debate Beverly Hills ambition vs. front-porch living, spotlight standout performances, and dig into behind-the-scenes trivia you probably didn't know. Plus, we tackle the important cinematic question: is this basically Cars with a stethoscope? With laughs, hot takes, ratings, and plenty of ‘90s nostalgia, we find out whether Doc Hollywood still has a healthy pulse — or if it needs to be left in the waiting room.

Every major AI company has the same safety plan: when AI gets crazy powerful and really dangerous, they'll use the AI itself to figure out how to make AI safe and beneficial. It sounds circular, almost satirical. But is it actually a bad plan?Today's guest, Ajeya Cotra, recently placed 3rd out of 413 participants forecasting AI developments and is among the most thoughtful and respected commentators on where the technology is going.She thinks there's a meaningful chance we'll see as much change in the next 23 years as humanity faced in the last 10,000, thanks to the arrival of artificial general intelligence. Ajeya doesn't reach this conclusion lightly: she's had a ring-side seat to the growth of all the major AI companies for 10 years — first as a researcher and grantmaker for technical AI safety at Coefficient Giving (formerly known as Open Philanthropy), and now as a member of technical staff at METR.So host Rob Wiblin asked her: is this plan to use AI to save us from AI a reasonable one?Ajeya agrees that humanity has repeatedly used technologies that create new problems to help solve those problems. After all:Cars enabled carjackings and drive-by shootings, but also faster police pursuits.Microbiology enabled bioweapons, but also faster vaccine development.The internet allowed lies to disseminate faster, but had exactly the same impact for fact checks.But she also thinks this will be a much harder case. In her view, the window between AI automating AI research and the arrival of uncontrollably powerful superintelligence could be quite brief — perhaps a year or less. In that narrow window, we'd need to redirect enormous amounts of AI labour away from making AI smarter and towards alignment research, biodefence, cyberdefence, adapting our political structures, and improving our collective decision-making.The plan might fail just because the idea is flawed at conception: it does sound a bit crazy to use an AI you don't trust to make sure that same AI benefits humanity.But if we find some clever technique to overcome that, we could still fail — because the companies simply don't follow through on their promises. They say redirecting resources to alignment and security is their strategy for dealing with the risks generated by their research — but none have quantitative commitments about what fraction of AI labour they'll redirect during crunch time. And the competitive pressures during a recursive self-improvement loop could be irresistible.In today's conversation, Ajeya and Rob discuss what assumptions this plan requires, the specific problems AI could help solve during crunch time, and why — even if we pull it off — we'll be white-knuckling it the whole way through.Links to learn more, video, and full transcript: https://80k.info/ac26This episode was recorded on October 20, 2025.Chapters:Cold open (00:00:00)Ajeya's strong track record for identifying key AI issues (00:00:43)The 1,000-fold disagreement about AI's effect on economic growth (00:02:30)Could any evidence actually change people's minds?

The Breggin Hour with Dr. Peter & Ginger Breggin – Investigative journalist Leo Hohmann examines the push for mandatory automobile kill switches and warns of an expanding surveillance state backed by both major political parties. As government, technology, and elite interests converge, personal freedom and constitutional limits face growing threats in an age of digital control and centralized power...

In this episode of Gangland Wire, host Gary Jenkins, retired Kansas City Police Intelligence Unit detective, steps outside traditional Mafia territory and into a shadowy world just as dangerous—and just as fascinating: the international theft of ultra-rare automobiles.  Gary is joined by author Stayton Bonner, former senior editor at Rolling Stone, and legendary car-recovery specialist Joe Ford, the real-life figure behind Bonner's book The Million Dollar Car Detective. At the center of the story is a breathtaking pre-World War II automobile—the Talbot-Lago Teardrop Coupé—once described as the most beautiful car in the world. Stolen from a Milwaukee industrialist's garage in 2001, the car vanished into the international underground of elite collectors, forged paperwork, and high-stakes deception. Joe Ford explains how he became the go-to investigator when rare cars worth millions disappear—and why stolen vehicles are far harder to recover than stolen art. What follows is a years-long global hunt involving disgruntled mechanics, fabricated titles, shell corporations, Swiss intermediaries, and a billionaire buyer now locked in civil litigation. Bonner adds rich historical context, tracing the car's glamorous past—from European aristocracy to Hollywood royalty—and exposing how loneliness, obsession, and greed often surround these legendary machines. The conversation expands into other notorious cases, including the disappearance of the original James Bond Aston Martin from Goldfinger, and how wealthy collectors sometimes knowingly harbor stolen artifacts. This episode is a true-crime story without guns or gangs—but filled with deception, betrayal, and the relentless pursuit of justice across borders. If you love investigative work, high-end crime, and stories that feel like James Bond meets Gone in 60 Seconds, this one's for you.

JT, AKA The Sneaker Savant, has been in the sneaker world long enough to remember when eBay was church, when Dadas sold out, and when nobody questioned either of those things. He's been a fixture in the Sneaker History Discord for years, built a following on Instagram under @TheSneakerSavant, writes over at thesneakersavant.substack.com, and has been quietly one of the most interesting thinkers in this whole space... he just doesn't always show his face.This one gets personal pretty fast. We talk about the Portland gathering and what it meant to finally be in a room full of people who just get it, without needing to explain themselves. We get into why Instagram is broken, why eBay is still our church, and why the algorithm is really good at exactly one thing... flattening culture. JT makes the case that the Dadas were absolutely a thing in Northern California and he's completely right, and we both wonder what stories are being lost because the internet only amplifies what everybody already agrees on.We also get into the sneaker card JT made for the Portland trip, a Jordan card with MJ in a Blazers jersey, how that one piece of cardstock led to a conversation with Ken Black, one of the architects of Nike team sports, which somehow led to JT learning who designed a jersey he'd wanted since he was a kid living in Great Britain. That story alone is worth the listen.This is a conversation about sneakers, but honestly it's more about community, memory, and why the stuff that mattered to us deserves to be documented before it gets lost.In this episode:The Foot Locker chaos on February 13th and what sneaker riots say about where the culture is right now. Why JT stopped buying shoes and started routing them to people who'd actually want them. The eBay rabbit hole that both of us still fall into on the regular, and why eBay is still the best place for actual sneaker knowledge. JT's 265-days-on-Instagram calculation and why the math kind of ruins you. The Portland gathering, getting the invite, and what it felt like to finally be in that room. Making 60 Jordan/Blazers cards by hand, how that one move changed the whole second night. Ken Black, Drake Ramberg, the Arsenal jersey, and how sneaker passion creates these connections that genuinely could not be planned. Why Steph Curry wearing Chris Webber's Dadas matters more than most people gave it credit for. And the argument that Substack might be the only platform left where regional sneaker stories and real cultural memory can survive.Follow JT the Sneaker Savant:Substack: thesneakersavant.substack.comInstagram: @TheSneakerSavantWebsite: TheSneakerSavant.comSUPPORT THE SHOW:Donate Through Venmo: https://venmo.com/u/sneakerhistoryBuy Me A Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/nickengvallEarly Access, Exclusive Videos, and Content On Patreon: https://patreon.com/sneakerhistorySubscribe on Substack: https://substack.com/@sneakerhistoryJoin our Discord Community: https://discord.gg/xJFyWmWgzaIf you are interested in advertising to our audience, contact us: podcast@sneakerhistory.comCHECK OUT OUR OTHER SHOWS:For the Formula 1 Fans - Exhaust Notes: https://exhaustnotes.fmFor the Fitted Hat Fans - Crown and Stitch: https://crownandstitch.comFor the Cars & Sneakers Fans - Cars & Kicks: https://carsxkicks.comFor the Creators & Creatives - Outside The Box: https://podcasts.apple.com/id/podcast/outside-the-box-convos-with-creators/id1050172106[Links contain...

Alan interviews Allen Boldt. Allen Boldt grew up in St. Louis and retired from a career as a product design specialist. A car enthusiast, he found it took too long to wash cars and wasted lots of water and soap. So, he invented the Dirt eRacer, a product that washes cars with minimal water and soap in only 10 minutes.
