Ferdinand wanted to make cars for the people, but the Porsche brand we know is an empire of performance. Dave Young: Welcome to the Empire Builders Podcast, teaching business owners the not-so-secret techniques that took famous businesses from mom and pop to major brands. Stephen Semple is a marketing consultant, story collector, and storyteller. I’m Stephen’s sidekick and business partner, Dave Young. Before we get into today’s episode, a word from our sponsor, which is, well, it’s us, but we’re highlighting ads we’ve written and produced for our clients, so here’s one of those. [ASAP Commercial Doors Ad] Dave Young: Welcome to The Empire Builders Podcast. It’s the podcast where we talk about empires that were built, businesses, business empires. You know what we… If you’ve listened before, you know… Stephen Semple: Something like that. I get it. Businesses that have done pretty well over the years. Dave Young: They started small. Stephen Semple: They started small. Dave Young: They started small and then they got big. They got so big to the point that you could call them an empire. Stephen Semple: That’s it. That’s the idea. Dave Young: It’s a pretty simple premise. Stephen Semple: That’s it. Dave Young: So as we counted down, Steve told me the topic today and it’s Porsche. Stephen Semple: Yes, sir. Dave Young: Porsche. I’m assuming this is the car. Stephen Semple: The car, yes, the car. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: The car. Dave Young: And I’m trying to… I know some Porsche jokes, but I probably shouldn’t tell those on this show. I’m trying to think if I’ve ever actually been in a Porsche. Stephen Semple: Oh, well then you’ve got to come up and see me, Dave. Dave Young: You own one. I know you own one. Stephen Semple: Well, I have one. Bernier’s got two. I don’t know how many Steve has. Dave Young: I see how it is. I see how it is. Maybe I will tell my Porsche joke. So you guys that own them, do you call it Porscha? Because some of us just say Porsche. Stephen Semple: Well, if you actually take a look back, that’s the proper German pronunciation as Porsche. Dave Young: Porsche, okay. Stephen Semple: And it’s supposed to not be… It’s not Italian Porsche, right? So it’s Porsche. Dave Young: Porsche, Porsche. Okay, I’ll accept that. I’ll accept that. I’m guessing we’re- Stephen Semple: Well, look, you got to always call a dealership to double check. They’ll tell you. Dave Young: Now, if I had to guess where we’re headed to start this off sometime around the 40s, maybe earlier. Stephen Semple: A little earlier than that, actually. It was founded by Ferdinand Porsche in 1931 in Stuttgart, Germany. You’re not far off. But the interesting thing is where the growth really happened, even though that’s when it was founded, when things really started to happen, was actually post-World War II. Dave Young: That makes sense. Stephen Semple: You’re correct on that. Dave Young: So, it started in 31 and by the time you hit the late 30s and 40s, you’re part of the war machine. Stephen Semple: Yes. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: So it was founded in 1931, Stuttgart, Germany by Ferdinand. And when we take a look at the history of the business for a very long time, they were a part of the VW group, although they were recently spun off into their own separate business. And there’s a lot of shared history between VW and Porsche. A lot of people make fun of the fact that it’s basically a VW. There’s so much connection. Now here’s the other thing is, there’s a lot of connection in Nazi Germany here as well. And I mean- Dave Young: That’s what I was intimating but trying not to say, but yes, there was definitely. Stephen Semple: And not one of these ones of, “Oh, I’m a business and I got sucked up into the machine.” I mean, very early on. Very early on. Ferdinand was a member of the SS following the war, both he and his son were charged. Dave Young: No kidding. Stephen Semple: He served two years in jail. His son six months. So we’re not talking loose connections here. He was a buddy of Adolf. Let’s just put it out there. And if you remember, going back to episode 21, VW was founded by Nazi Germany. So episode 21 about The Beetle, and Ferdinand was the guy who designed the Beetle. Dave Young: Right, right. I remember you saying that, Ferdinand Porsche. Stephen Semple: And look, Porsche has not always had the success it has today. It’s become pretty big. They do 40 billion EU in sales. They have 40,000 employees. They make 300,000 cars. There was a time that they’re making cars in the hundreds and thousands. It wasn’t that long ago. But let’s go back to Germany to the early 1900s. And if we think about Germany at that time, pre-World War II, pre-World War I, there was lots of history of engineering and science in Germany. More Nobel Prizes in Science was awarded to Germany than anywhere else in the world at that time. Dave Young: Right. Stephen Semple: Germany was a real leader in science and engineering. And the first commercial automobile was made in Germany by Mercedes-Benz. So it’s 1906 and Daimler recruits Ferdinand because Ferdinand had been the winner of the Pottingham [inaudible 00:06:05] Prize, which is the automotive engineer of the year, which is given to new chief engineers and basically allows the person to have this designated doctor engineer honoris causa, Ferdinand Porsche. And he would go around calling himself all of that. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: And this is an honorary doctorate because he never actually finished college, but he had real engineering chops, Ferdinand. So he moves to Stuttgart, which at the time is a center of car making in Germany, including all the suppliers. And he works for Benz for 20 years. Okay. Now, it’s Germany in the 1930s and 2% of the population own a car in Germany as compared to the United States, which is 30%. Dave Young: In that time? Stephen Semple: In that time. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: Ferdinand comes up with this idea of we should make an inexpensive car. We shouldn’t be making car for the wealthy. We should make an inexpensive car. The board rejects the idea. Ferdinand leaves in 1929. And in 1931… Kicks around for a few years, and then 1931 starts a consulting firm. Now, this dude knew how to name things. You’re ready for the name of the company? Dave Young: Of the consulting firm? Stephen Semple: Of the consulting firm. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: I have to read this to get it right. The Doctor Engineer Honoris Causa Ferdinand Porsche Construction and Consulting and Design Services for Motor Vehicles. Dave Young: Now, if I know anything about German, that was all one word that you just said, right? Stephen Semple: Well- Dave Young: No spaces in between any of those words. Stephen Semple: Translated, you’ll see it as Dr. in H period, C period, F period, Porsche, capital G, small M, small B, capital H. Dave Young: It just rolls off the tongue, doesn’t it? Stephen Semple: Now, here’s the crazy thing. Up until 2009, that remained the official name of the company. You actually can find, if you see Porsche’s older than that, that if you look for that, it’ll be stamped somewhere in the car that that’s the manufacturer. Dave Young: They changed it finally because it was just too expensive to- Stephen Semple: It cost too much- Dave Young: Put that many letters in a dye cast. Stephen Semple: Exactly, exactly. Dave Young: Holy cow. Stephen Semple: So it’s 1934 and they land a contract with Germany to design a small affordable car for the people called the Volkswagen. Dave Young: Volkswagen. Stephen Semple: Beetle. Right, there you go. Now, here’s the thing that’s weird. Post World War II, the allies are in trying to rebuild Germany and no one owns VW. VW was owned by the state. So now it’s in the hands of the British and the British and the allies want to create a strong economy in West Germany because it’s now the Cold War. So the big defense to defending against East Germany and the expansion of communism is to really get the economy going in Germany. And so the British government, as we know from episode 21 about the Beetle, approached Porsche who designed it and said, “Help us get this car built.” And this is where it gets just a little bit weird because the son goes in one direction. Ferdinand’s doing his own thing. They both got arrested for war crimes. Son gets out first because he did six months. And his son’s name’s Ferry and his dad is in jail for two years. So between this time where dad’s still in jail and son’s out, here’s one of the things they did towards the end of the war. We don’t know exactly how many, but it was probably about 20 of their best engineers and they moved them out into the farmland of Austria and basically had them working in a barn because they didn’t want to get them arrested or killed, quite frankly. So Ferry gets out and he goes to this barn in Austria and he’s looking around and he goes, “What the heck are we going to do to make some money? Let’s start fixing up cars.” Now, not a huge business fixing up cars. It’s post-war and there weren’t a lot of cars in Germany anyway, but they had to do something. Then the dad gets out of jail and he ends up doing this work with Volkswagen. Now, here’s what’s interesting. And this is where the really tight ties between Porsche and Volkswagen start. The deal that the German government gives Ferdinand, the deal that the allies give Ferdinand is this. Dave Young: Stay tuned. We’re going to wrap up this story and tell you how to apply this lesson to your business right after this. [Using Stories to Sell Ad] Dave Young: Let’s pick up our story where we left off and trust me you haven’t missed a thing. Stephen Semple: The deal that the allies give Ferdinand is this. We want your help designing and distributing this car. We will give you a royalty for every VW Beetle sold worldwide. Dave Young: Wow, that’s pretty generous. Stephen Semple: Well, no one knew it was going to be such a huge success and basically go for 50 years that car was being built. Dave Young: Right, right. Stephen Semple: So for a long time, the biggest source of revenue for Porsche was royalties on VW Beetle sales. Dave Young: Wow, okay. So it really- Stephen Semple: Isn’t that crazy? Dave Young: It really wouldn’t exist if that deal hadn’t been made. Stephen Semple: May not have, may not have. Now, meanwhile, Ferry, who has design chops of his own and loves cars, started tinkering around with vehicles. And what he started to do was put big engines in small cars. There was all these Beetle parts lying around. He would build a car, this little car, and he’d put a big engine in it. And if you go back in the time, if you go back and take a look in the late 30s, early 40s, and you take a look at Ferraris and things like that, you take a look at the race cars at the time, they were two-thirds engines. They’re these massive engines. So he went the opposite direction. He said, “Well, let’s take a little car and put a big engine in it.” And he’s driving around and he goes, “This is fun.” Because he’s basing it on parts lying around, which is the VW stuff. It’s an engine in the back. This becomes the Porsche 356, which is basically Porsche’s first car. So they start making this car and they wanted to make it somewhat affordable. So the price was $3,750, which would be $42,000 today. And they also wanted to have it as being a daily driver because again, everybody else making performance cars were not daily drivers, had a trunk, bunch of things, daily driver. And this is an important part of Porsche’s DNA. We’re going to come back to this a little bit later, this idea of it being a daily driver. So coming out of World War II, sports cars, industry’s happening and everybody’s got one. MG and Jag in the UK, there’s Ferrari in Italy, you get the idea. Now, one thing I forgot to mention that’s interesting and still today, the government state of Lower Saxony, which is basically would be the state, they still own 20% of Volkswagen. Dave Young: Really? Okay. Stephen Semple: I forgot to mention that. Dave Young: Who are they now? Stephen Semple: Well, Volkswagen’s still around. Volkswagen’s still- Dave Young: No, who is the Saxony? Stephen Semple: Well, it’d be like saying the state of Texas. It’s a state. Dave Young: Okay, it’s just a part of Germany. Stephen Semple: Part of Germany and that government still owns 20% of the company. Dave Young: What a world. Stephen Semple: Now there’s all this stimulus going on in Germany to try to get the economy going. One of the things that they did, there was a really interesting tax rate. There was an interesting tax structure. There was a very high marginal tax rate. Now, ordinary people were taxed at 15%, but the marginal tax rate could go as high as 95%. And the reason why they wanted to do this was create this incentive for reinvestment. So there’s all this… As they’re making money, there’s this heavy reinvestment. And in the early 50s, racing is really exploding. Automobile racing is really exploding, but the lines between professional and amateur is blurry. If you remember, James Dean and Steve McQueen and other actors, Paul Newman, were all racing. Dave Young: Right. Stephen Semple: They’re all racing vehicles. And Jaguar and Porsche were trying to do the same thing in terms of creating this daily driver that you could race. Now in the end, Porsche won, and I think part of it is because quite frankly, they just built a better vehicle. There was a time where the joke with Jaguars was you had to own two because one would always be in the shop and one… And going back to the early DNA, Ferry Porsche was quoted as saying, “We have the only car that can go from an East African safari to race in the Le Mans to take out to theater and then drive on the streets in New York.” Dave Young: Wow, okay. Stephen Semple: And look, today, Porsche still heavily advertises that. They will advertise a Porsche driving through the snow with ski racks on it. And not their SUVs, the 911. This is very much part of it. And if you think about it, this parallels what Rolex did in the early days. You remember from episode 184 with Rolex. Rolex, the Submariner, the Explorer. Dave Young: Target by niche. Stephen Semple: Target by niche and make it tough and something that you could use and wear day to day. So it’s 1954 and Porsche’s selling 588 cars and about 40% of them is in the US. So really what’s making things hum with them is all those Beetle sales. And it’s the ’60s, the Ford Mustang comes out, the Jag E type comes out, the Austin-Healey comes out, and Porsche decides they need a new vehicle. And they were going to do a sedan, a four door sedan. But what they realized was they didn’t really want to compete with Mercedes and BMW. So they looked around at the other German car manufacturers and they said, “You know what? That’s probably not the place to go.” They had designed it up and that project failed. They had also been working on a six cylinder Boxter engine. So Boxter engine, the cylinders are opposed, so they’re like boxing. And the whole idea is that lowers the center of gravity of the weight of the engine. And they had a project that they were working on that that didn’t go ahead. So they stepped back and they went, “Maybe what we should do is just reduce the size of the sedan and put that engine in it.” That’s what they did. And that became the Porsche 901. Except there’s a problem. Peugeot had the copyright for zero in the middle of a bunch of numbers in France. They couldn’t call it the 901 because of that copyright. Dave Young: So they called it- Stephen Semple: So they called it the 911. And that’s now the iconic Porsche car. 1966, they sell 13,000 of these cars. Now, here’s the thing that I think is very interesting. And Porsche, as far as I could figure out, is the only car manufacturer that does this. First of all, they’ve maintained the 911 forever, but even on top of that, Porsche really understands design language. We can all recognize a Porsche. Dave Young: Right. Stephen Semple: We can recognize one from 2020. We can recognize one from 1999. We can recognize one from 1970. Even though they’ve upgraded the technology, they’ve changed the design of the car. They’ve now come out with the Cayman and the Macan and the Cayenne. They’re all recognizable as that vehicle. They’ve done a great job of doing that. I think that was a lost opportunity, frankly, when Tesla came out because they had a clean design slate. Tesla could have done that. But I think that’s really interesting how they’ve managed to maintain, even though they’ll modernize it. In our minds, we still will see one and go, “That’s a Porsche.” Dave Young: Sure. And the great car brands are able to do that. Stephen Semple: Yes. Dave Young: Audi is always going to be an Audi. Volvo is always going to look like a Volvo. And in the Portals class at Wizard Academy, one of the videos that I use to demonstrate that, there’s a language. If you combine specific shapes and specific lines, that all adds up to that brand of car. And so I’ve got an old video that I got when I was in the Motor Press Guild from Audi. It was just a video that was made for journalists with an Audi designer explaining all the lines on the car when they came out with the Q7 and how it still maintained the Audi design language. It was fascinating. Stephen Semple: It is. Dave Young: So Porsche could tell you that and the cool thing is those designers can tell you that. It’s hard for you and I to go, “Well, I can look at it and say, “That’s a Porsche.” But to be able to put it into words that describe it to someone else, is a gift. Stephen Semple: What’s really interesting, my nephew, Jeffrey, he loves Audi’s. That’s what he has. And he’ll even make the comment, he doesn’t like the Porsche’s because you feel like you’re in a bubble. Audis are very square. If you look at the back of an Audi and you look at the rear end of a Porsche, it has hips. But again, he’s even, “They’re great cars, but I like the squareness of the Audi.” So that’s interesting. Dave Young: Audi Audi has a fairly, not perpendicular, but an upright grill more so than a … And that’s part of their design language. Stephen Semple: So the whole DNA of Porsche came from this whole idea of a small car. Dave Young: Big engine. Stephen Semple: Big engine, daily driver, that was the whole idea is, it’s supposed to be a car that you can drive every day. That’s the core, core, core, core principle. That’s why they always have decent sized trunks. I remember when Gary bought his Boxter, one of the things he loved about it is you can actually put two sets of golf clubs in that car. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: Right? Now, here’s what’s fun. There was a time where when they were really wanting to get things going, they did some great print advertisements. So they had ads like bug killer. Another one was calling it transportation is like calling sex reproduction. Dave Young: Okay. Stephen Semple: Now, two of my favorites, one was not perfect. It would list 20 or 30 races that Porsche won. And if you actually read it, there was two that it didn’t. Dave Young: That they didn’t, “We didn’t win all the races.” Stephen Semple: So not perfect. Dave Young: That could have been driver error. Stephen Semple: That could have been. But Dave, you were going to make some jokes. Porsche’s able to laugh at itself. It actually had an ad that said, “Small penis? Have I got a car for you? If you’re going to overcompensate, then by all means, overcompensate.” Dave Young: I love it, I love it. Well, and that’s always the thing, the jokes are not about the car. Stephen Semple: But they actually ran that ad and I believe it ran in Car and Driver Magazine. I cannot imagine getting that ad approved. Dave Young: That’s amazing. Stephen Semple: And look, their own drivers are like, “Yeah, whatever.” Dave Young: Sure, compensating all I want. Absolutely. I love that story. Well, thank you, Stephen. I love the story of Porsche. Stephen Semple: There you go. Dave Young: And get out there and enjoy it or just buy me one and send it here. Thank you.

This week's episode topic comes from a listener-submitted AMA request - one worthy of its own episode. They ask - what single metric about a car's driving experience tells you the most before you drive it? === Visit http://JasonSentMe.com to get a Hagerty Guaranteed Value (TM) collector-car insurance quote! === At first, you may think there's one straightforward answer. But you'd be wrong. Discussion begins with Jason's MK1 Volkswagen Cabriolet - a car he claims is the most fun he's ever driven. Derek roughly agrees - but counters with the Peugeot 205 Rallye, and much more substantially - the McLaren F1. But how can a nearly 40 year old subcompact convertible be as rewarding to drive as a hypercar? Mass seems like the obvious answer - but a 4000 lb car from today can often out-dance a 2000 lb car from 35 years ago. Take a Lotus Elise (perhaps, with a small cow in it) and a Rivian R1T - both will dance around a race track in a much more similarly than differently vs. any car and truck combination from even 10 years ago. Having covered that base, Jason and Derek explore other possibilities - including peak horsepower per RPM and engine configuration. Derek recalls a time when Alfa Romeo stuffed their Twin Cam four cylinder in everything from GTVs to large Ambulances - simply because it was a such a good engine despite whatever weight it was tasked to pull around. Jason decides to ask AI what it thinks, answering (oddly) with the Toyota Matrix, Honda Fit, and Nissan Versa. On theme with the MK1 Cabriolet, the boys discuss structural rigidity - which leads to another exploration of convertibles ranging from 996 Porsche 911 Cabriolet, to BMW Z3M, Mercedes-Benz SLK, and of course- the Nissan Murano Cross-Cabriolet.

What if your biggest car-buying mistake has nothing to do with the car? In this episode of https://Drive-Radio.com: The Extra Mile, host John Rush and engineer Luke Cashman reveal hidden traps in the used-car market and why this format goes deeper than a live call-in show. Is your vehicle a tool or an identity? John challenges emotional buying and offers a clear, strategic process to separate needs from wants before shopping. Why is there no 72-hour return in Colorado? Why does buying on a Friday night—or when desperate—almost always cost more? And why can a newer, high-mileage highway car be smarter than a low-mileage "grocery-store car"? The discussion sharpens as John reveals dealer red flags, including nonrefundable deposits and misleading reviews. He stresses researching the dealer as much as the car, and covers financing strategy, private sales, negotiation, and why cash isn't as powerful as buyers believe. Most chilling: modern car scams. With AI voices, cloned websites, and convincing fake listings, how can you avoid wiring money for a car that doesn't exist? John shares examples—including a Porsche buyer who lost $25,000—to explain why you should never buy a car you can't inspect yourself. This episode is a must for anyone looking to outsmart the used-car market, save money, and avoid buyer's remorse. Listen now to equip yourself with the strategies and insights you need before your next vehicle purchase.

In der dritten und letzten Podcast-Folge mit Michael Jost, dem ehemaligen Chefstrategen des Volkswagen-Konzerns und Gründer von eD-TEC, ging es um die Zukunft der Mobilität – auf der Straße und auf dem Wasser. Wir sprachen darüber, wie sich Besitz, Nutzung und Emotion im Wandel der Branche neu sortieren und warum Markenidentität dabei weiterhin eine zentrale Rolle spielt. Michael betonte, dass das Auto auch in Zukunft mehr bleiben wird als ein reines Fortbewegungsmittel. „Autos sind Antworten auf die Sehnsüchte der Menschen – sie stehen für Identität und Emotion, nicht nur für Funktionalität.“ Der Wandel hin zu flexiblen Nutzungsmodellen wie Pay-per-Use oder Abo-Tarifen sei zwar unausweichlich, doch dürfe dabei die emotionale Bindung zur Marke nicht verloren gehen. Die Zukunft liege für ihn in intelligenten Kombinationen aus Eigentum und Nutzung – mit modularen, tarifbasierten Angeboten, ähnlich wie wir sie bereits vom Smartphone kennen. Ein weiterer Schwerpunkt war die Rolle der Software. Hier zeigte sich Jost realistisch, aber optimistisch: Die europäische Autoindustrie habe Nachholbedarf, müsse aber ihre Architekturen konsolidieren, um langfristig wettbewerbsfähig zu bleiben. „Software ist einfach gesagt und schwer gemacht“, fasste er treffend zusammen. Der Weg hin zu einheitlichen, skalierbaren Systemen sei zwar schmerzhaft, aber notwendig, um die Digitalisierung des Autos wirklich zu meistern. Besonders spannend war Michaels Blick auf den nächsten Transformationsschritt – weg von der Straße, hin aufs Wasser. Mit eD-TEC arbeitet er an der Elektrifizierung des maritimen Bereichs. Sein Ziel: „Electrify the ocean.“ Gemeinsam mit einem internationalen Team hat er ein eigenes Antriebssystem für Hochleistungsboote entwickelt, das durch Effizienz und technologische Raffinesse überzeugt. Der eigens patentierte „Surface Piercing Drive“ ermöglicht hohe Geschwindigkeiten bei vergleichsweise geringem Energieverbrauch. Das erste Boot, ein rund acht Meter langes Performance-RIB mit zwei 200-kW-Motoren, soll bei 30 Knoten lediglich 100 kW Leistung benötigen – genug, um mit einer 100-kWh-Batterie rund eine Stunde vollelektrisch zu fahren. Doch eD-TEC steht für mehr als Technik. Michael verbindet seine maritime Vision mit einem ganzheitlichen Ansatz. In Kroatien entsteht aktuell die erste grid-free Villa – energieautark durch Solaranlage und Batteriespeicher. „Wenn ich ein Haus CO₂-neutral betreiben kann, warum sollte das auf dem Wasser nicht auch funktionieren?“ fragte er rhetorisch. Sein Ziel ist es, eine kleine, aber inspirierende Bewegung anzustoßen, die zeigt, dass nachhaltige Mobilität auch im Luxussegment funktionieren kann. Dabei sieht er die Parallelen zwischen Auto- und Bootsbranche klar: Während Autos in Zyklen von wenigen Jahren gewechselt werden, behalten viele ihr Boot jahrzehntelang. Transformation brauche hier also mehr Geduld – und Pioniergeist. Jost positioniert sich mit eD-TEC bewusst in einer Nische oberhalb von Porsche, um Innovation und Exklusivität zu vereinen. „Wir wollen kein Bootsbauer sein, sondern ein Technologielieferant für die maritime Industrie,“ erklärt er. Am Ende unseres Gesprächs spürte man, dass Michael Jost nicht nur Visionär, sondern auch Realist ist. Seine Projekte zeigen, wie tiefgreifend Mobilität gedacht werden kann – jenseits von Antrieben, hin zu Erlebnissen und Systemen, die Energie, Technik und Emotion verbinden. Nun aber genug der Vorrede – tauchen wir ein in die dritte und letzte Folge mit Michael Jost, in der es um nichts Geringeres geht als die Zukunft der Mobilität auf Straße und Meer.

In this episode, we talk with Marsail and Tony Abuaita just after they completed two weeks of Fibrenew training in Calgary. They're the new owners of Fibrenew Irving, Texas, bringing together Marsail's artistic eye and Tony's business experience. At the time of this recording, Marsail was entering her final semester at Texas State University, studying scenic painting. She's used to turning design ideas into large-scale theatre sets, so when she discovered Fibrenew, it felt like a natural extension of what she already loves: taking a vision and making it real. Color, texture, and detail all matter to her—if her name is on the work, it has to be something she's proud of. Tony has built and run multiple businesses since immigrating to the U.S. in 1990, including convenience stores, Dairy Queen franchises, and a travel agency focused on religious group tours. After talking with other Fibrenew franchisees, he saw an opportunity for a flexible, scalable business that his daughter could own and grow. A turning point for Marsail was her first ride-along, restoring a small burn in a Porsche seat. The customer's reaction reminded her of seeing an audience respond to a finished stage production—it proved that this work has real emotional impact. Now, Marsail is preparing to juggle her final semester with planning her new business, aiming to “take Irving by storm” once she graduates. With Tony supporting her on the operations and admin side, they see Fibrenew as both a business opportunity and a way to grow together as a family.For more info on Fibrenew Franchising, visit www.fibrenew.com/franchising

Welcome back to Everyone Racers, the podcast for weekend warriors, budget-built race cars, wrench-turning heroes, and anyone who loves the chaos of amateur motorsports. Episode #415 is a wild ride packed with racing news, wrenching disasters, automotive comedy, and deep-in-the-paddock storytelling every grassroots racer will appreciate.In this Steering wheel Ep 415, Tim's fancy truck makes him do his own driving, like a sucker! Chris hangs pictures, Chrissy got a new helmet while Mental breaks down and buys a Hyundai.Really this week the gang talks about everything from golfing at Cypress Point, DIY sink disasters, buying a 2025 Toyota Tacoma, new helmets, Christmas trees, and the eternal struggle of traffic-assist systems that swear they see ghosts in the fog. We also dive into the hilarious chaos of a Waymo self-driving car wandering into a felony stop, Hyundai recalling only its silver cars, and a Tesla showing “people” in a cemetery at night. Then it's onto real racing:
Alex, Beck, and Tyler catch up in what can only be called a rambling fashion. They immediately launch into a career appreciation of Bill Paxton (RIP); talk sharing Thanksgiving plates and Tyler's 10-carb weekend; take a largely ignorant automotive linguistic detour; defeat the perils of disassembling modern interior trim; grouse about California smog testing; reminisce about the long road to Beck's E46 ZHP sedan going live on the site; and briefly cover VW Type 2 and Vanagon powerplant options.Alex describes the culmination of a lifelong dream: his recent acquisition of, and road trip in, his Euro 1978 308 GTB (spoiler: he reveals that, to this day, he's never had a car break down on the road). The crew wrap up by riffing on their various BaT watchlists.Links for things mentioned in this episode:3:2 2 1970 Porsche 914-617:15 2004 BMW 330i ZHP Sedan 6-Speed19:51 1988 Mercedes-Benz 300E 5-Speed36:05 Petroleum Museum in Midland, Texas38:18 BaT Podcast Episode: Texas Legend: Jim Hall and his Chaparrals43:12 36-Years-Owned 1976 Ferrari 308 GTB Vetroresina44:06 c.1962 Centurion Mk 13 Main Battle Tank44:16 1962 Alfa Romeo Giulietta Sprint Zagato Coda Tronca45:37 23-Years-Owned 1967 Porsche 911S Coupe46:19 Ex–Richard Petty 1970 Plymouth Superbird47:28 Ex–Sultan of Brunei 1986 Lamborghini LM002 Wagon by Diomante49:24 38k-Mile 1994 Porsche 911 Speedster 5-Speed54:20 20-Years-Owned 1966 Chevrolet Corvette Coupe L72 427/425 4-Speed55:47 2,500-Mile, Slate Gray 1994 Porsche 911 Turbo 3.61:00:25 Porsche 911 Turbo Documentary with Jason Cammisa, Henry Catchpole, and Friends57:16 65-Years-Family-Owned 1953 Cisitalia 808XF Coupe Prototype1:00:59 BaT Podcast Episode: The Many Porsches of Magnus Walker1:01:07 1975 Porsche 930 Turbo1:01:54 Love for a Cult-Favorite Car Brand Runs in the Family (WSJ paywall)1:02:42 BaT Podcast Episode: AJ Baime on Go Like Hell, The Arsenal of Democracy, and MoreGot suggestions for our next guest from the BaT community, One Year Garage episode, or (B)aT the Movies subject?

The Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum exists at the intersection of the past, present, and future of motorcycling. “Driven to Ride” host Mark Long traveled to the museum for the very first time this past October. His eye-opening experience coincided with the annual Barber Vintage Festival, which attracts tens of thousands of riders from all over North America and beyond to central Alabama.The magnificent five-story building sits in the southeast corner of Barber Motorsports Park, adjacent to the 2.38-mile, 17-turn road course, affectionately known as the “Alabama roller coaster.” The museum and park are the legacy of dairy heavyweight and successful Porsche racer George Barber, whose vivid vision for a “motorcycle mecca” began in the late-1980s.Long took full advantage of the three-day weekend, conversing with Executive Director Brian Case, Conservation Manager Ally Domar, Education Programs Manager Dr. Liz Johnson, and legendary designer Pierre Terblanche. He also took in Q&A sessions with champion racers and celebrity authors, while roaming the exquisitely manicured, 880-acre grounds. It's a don't-miss episode.

Using real numbers and real experiences, they walk through everything from cheap stocking stuffers to serious driver-focused mods, all with a hard cap around that $1,500 mark.If you are a Porsche owner, dreamer, or you share a house with one, this episode gives you concrete gift ideas at different budgets and explains why they matter in the real world. It is also permission to treat yourself, backed by two serial Porsche owners who have tried most of this stuff the hard way.If you want your partner to “accidentally” get the hint, play this episode in the car and let Will and Derek do the talking for you. And if you are the Porsche person in the relationship, use this as your checklist before you buy anything else for the garage.Will Youtube: RennthusiastDerek Youtube: ElevenAfterNine Hosted on Acast.

Day 5 of the Brian Walshe murder trial delivered some of the most disturbing testimony yet — text messages prosecutors say Brian sent to his wife Ana's phone for three days after allegedly killing and dismembering her. Massachusetts State Trooper Connor Keefe read the messages aloud in Norfolk Superior Court. They show Brian Walshe's tone shifting from casual to concerned to frantic between January 2nd and January 4th, 2023 — the day he finally reported Ana missing. One text ended with "I still love you!!! haha." According to prosecutors, Ana was already dead when he typed those words. None of the messages were ever delivered. Her phone was never recovered. The jury also saw the tools prosecutors say Brian used to dismember his wife's body. Retired Trooper Heather Sullivan removed each item from evidence bags and displayed them in open court: a hatchet, hacksaw, hammer, garden shears, snippers, packing tape, and a measuring cup. All recovered from a dumpster near Brian's mother's Swampscott apartment. Defense attorney Larry Tipton pushed back hard during cross-examination, arguing investigators cherry-picked evidence from a narrow two-week window and ignored context that showed a normal marriage. He highlighted texts from December 2022 where Brian and Ana discussed buying property and shopping for a Porsche. Tipton also invoked the name Michael Proctor — the disgraced state trooper from the Karen Read case who was the original case officer on Ana Walshe's disappearance. State Medical Examiner Richard Atkinson began testimony about examining items from the trash for human tissue. He returns Monday with findings. Brian Walshe has pleaded guilty to misleading police and improperly disposing of Ana's body — but the jury doesn't know that. He's fighting the first-degree murder charge. The defense claims he found Ana dead and panicked. Prosecutors say he planned and executed her killing, then performed the role of worried husband while disposing of evidence. Trial resumes Monday.

Send us a textRHOBH-Divorces, Annulments, and New BeginningsRHOBH – S15 E1 Recap: “Hot Girl Summer”The season opens with classic Beverly Hills energy: Sutton riding horses, Erika sudsed up in stilettos washing her Porsche, Dorit strolling out of Hermès with allegedly empty bags, Bozoma blasting herself with a leaf blower on her dining room table, and Kyle cruising off in her Porsche while calling Alexia.Dorit's Divorce BombshellBozoma meets with Dorit she brings a $2,000 Hermès throw and dives right into the PK drama. She filed for divorce the SAME day the photo circulated of PK kissing the “SHEIN version of Dorit.” She's still furious, says PK barely sees the kids, and Kyle only checked on her four days later. Dorit thought she and Kyle rebuilt their friendship after the reunion—apparently not.Kyle's House of Alpha FemalesKyle is cooking with Portia and Sophia (still living at home) while Farrah and bride-to-be Alexia join. Alexia bans Kyle and Mauricio from bringing dates to her wedding. The girls openly joke about Mo being a “ho,” and the therapist-approved honesty is flowing. Kyle also insists all her daughters are alpha females, and she is not wrong.Kathy Hilton x Rachel Zoe CollabRachel Zoe sweeps into Kathy Hilton's Bel-Air palace to style her for Italy—complete with her signature giant Gucci bag. We get Rachel's whole career glow-up, then a surprisingly emotional look at her marriage ending after 26 years. Her boys know Roger has a girlfriend, which… started very quickly after the separation.Sutton's Dinner Party + The Avi MysteryErika and Kyle head to Sutton's for a dinner planned by Nick the party planner and soundtracked by Reba on piano. Sutton reveals she let Avi go and calls him more than a personal assistant—a friend she lost. Reba and Sutton also reveal Sutton's Catholic annulment came through after 17 years of marriage.Kyle's Summer Solstice PartyFlower crowns, pillows on the floor, and Faye Resnick arriving with a friend that Kyle and Erika mistake for Dorit. The group immediately gets into Sutton's annulment, Dorit's divorce, and the ongoing mystery of what really went down between Sutton and Garcelle. Sutton insists she's texted Garcelle endlessly with no reply.Rachel Meets the GroupRachel opens up about separating a year ago, believing staying together “for the kids” is the wrong move. Kathy Hilton starts producing random items from her bag—including jeans—and gifting them mid-circle.Hot Girl Summer DeclarationThe ladies talk dating, divorce, what counts as a “hot girl summer,” and Erika says plainly: hers won't be with these women—it'll be with a man.WWHL MomentKyle joins Andy with Congressman Robert Garcia. Robert praises Rachel Zoe's return, Kyle insists she believes Sutton truly doesn't know what happened with Garcelle, and Justin Sylvester bartends—her longtime former assistant of 16 years. Kyle's advice to herself from Season 1? “Pay more attention to your marriage.”Support the showhttps://www.wewinewhenever.com/

In this episode, Elliot Weil, founder of OODA Motorsports, joins us to talk about his Porsche journey and how real-world track failures led to engineering breakthroughs. Elliot shares his ownership experience with a 997.2 RS, including a catastrophic engine failure that didn't just stop him—it pushed him to innovate. Rather than accepting the limits of stock components, he developed new high-performance parts using better materials to enhance reliability for serious track work and high-performance applications. We dive deep into Elliot's approach to building the perfect Porsche, including the personal decision to change his dream car's color and the philosophy behind getting every detail right. The conversation covers the unique appeal of air-cooled ownership, navigating today's vintage Porsche market, and comparing the driving dynamics across different 911 generations. What draws enthusiasts to specific models? What makes one generation feel different from another? Elliot shares his future modification plans and what keeps the passion alive for these cars. Thank you for your support! Kimchi Crew: Leslie, Chris, Ken, Aaron, Matthew, Sean, and Nik
