LeMayZing! Cars, Collecting, History, and Culture with Eric LeMay
Join us for another fun episode with Eric & Todd at The Hideaway Tavern ($4 dirty burgers on Wednesdays). In this episode, we discuss how different LeMay Collections at Marymount and LeMay-America's Car Museum are from each other, but they are symbiotic in a way that will surprise visitors to both. It is a bit of a continuation of our previous episode as we share great stories of cars in both collections that hold fond memories for both of us. Then, the comparison devolves into Eric classifying LeMay Collections at Marymount as an “orgy of the senses.” (Hey Eric, this is a family show…let's call Marymount what it is…a “collection of collections.”) (ERIC'S NOTE: I think "orgy of the senses" is one of the greatest phrases ever uttered on early 1991-era international live broadcasting. The entire thing deserves a short documentary. It was big on a lot of levels. But I never thought of it as a "blue" question. In fact, I might have been the last person who realized what I was saying. Terry Anderson had such a great answer...) (TODD'S NOTE: Good excuse, Eric. Isn't he funny?)
