Richard Rawlings, celebrity car enthusiast and star of Discovery Channel's "Fast and Loud," joins The Neil Haley Show to discuss his newest venture, "Garage Rehab." Rawlings opens up about his 16-year journey building Gas Monkey Garage, sharing the humbling moments when he had to borrow money from his wife just to make rent. He explains how these struggles inspired him to help other garage owners who are facing the same challenges he once overcame, emphasizing that he's looking for dedication to both business and family in the shop owners he chooses to mentor.Unlike typical reality rehab shows filled with drama and confrontation, Rawlings describes "Garage Rehab" as a genuine investment in people and their businesses, featuring less drama but plenty of eye candy with shops, cars, and motorcycles. He discusses what makes a great garage, stressing that it's not about square footage but about the passion and love people have for their craft. Rawlings expresses concern about losing manual labor skills as young people focus more on computers, emphasizing that skilled trades can provide excellent livings and put kids through college. The episode concludes with Rawlings teasing upcoming shows, including one focused on teaching young people in shop classes to keep the automotive passion alive.

Chris and Amy chat with former KMOX-intern, Chris Kerber about his memories of working for the station, plus why the Blues are struggling; Rawlings Exec Eric Reinsfelder talks about a new 'landmark' at Westport Plaza, a giant Gold Glove; Did you see this?
Eric Reinsfelder is Rawlings' Vice President of Brand Sports. He joins Amy and Chris as a giant replica Gold Glove is installed on the roof of the Rawlings headquarters at Westport Plaza this morning. The glove is 30 feet tall. "We did a lot of engineering on this glove," says Reinsfelder, including dealing with 'bird mitigation' and FAA requirements.
16-year-old Judy Rawlings was reported missing from her family's home on October 5th, 2001. Two weeks later, her body was found in the woods. Police have identified a suspect, but the murder remains unsolved over twenty years later. Join Mike and Morf as they discuss the murder of Judy Rawlings. What is tougher on the family of a murder victim: to have no idea who the perpetrator is, or to have an idea, but the police are unable to charge that person? There is a person very much on the police radar in this case, and many signs are pointing to his involvement. But as we know, that is not enough.You can help support the show at patreon.com/truecrimeallthetimeVisit the show's website at truecrimeallthetime.com for contact, merchandise, and donation informationAn Emash Digital productionSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Early in August, Record Store Day held their annual "Summer Camp" meeting in New Orleans, once again returning to the lovely Hotel Monteleone, in the heart of the French Quarter, for a few days of meeting, schmoozing, and, frankly, Big Easy cuisine. During the week, host Paul Myers recorded a couple of live interviews with musicians talking about their approach to the music business in 2025. Today, we are sharing one of them. Guitarist, singer, songwriter, producer David Rawlings, whose most recent album with Gillian Welch, Woodland, was one of the best records of 2024, sat down with Paul in the Hotel Monteleone ballroom to discuss his duo's truly independent, and self-reliant, approach to the business of music making and distribution. Welch and Rawlings are co-owners of Nashville's Woodland Studio, their own Acony Records label, and now, they are partners in their own prestige pressing facility, Paramount Pressing & Plating, in Denver, Colorado. It's a fun talk! The Record Store Day Podcast is a weekly music chat show written, produced, engineered and hosted by Paul Myers, who also composed the theme music and selected interstitial music. Executive Producers (for Record Store Day) Michael Kurtz and Carrie Colliton.
