Rich, Bryan, and Ron settle in for another round of weather complaints, heat index bragging rights, and home-repair swapping — Ron's up early for a run to Abilene, Rich shares how sealing his AC ducts dropped his electric bill about $2 a day, and Bryan's still fighting a 130-degree attic and an old house that used to run a $500-a-month natural gas bill before the wood stove took over.

From there it wanders everywhere it usually does: Rich's dilemma over joining a ham radio club (and the Thursday-night scheduling conflict that finally pushed the show to Mondays), hitting 10,000 downloads and sorting real listeners from bot traffic, a Hennessy Velociraptor sighting, celebrity deaths and the Dolly Parton/Freebird duet nobody knew existed, a long detour into AI, data centers, and the power grid, and the usual politics-and-government venting. Rich lays out his plan to shoot video for Cruising the Coast with his new phone and gimbal — which is also where the episode gets its name. Bryan talks about his wife wanting to see her uncle while she still can, growing older, and the Ocean Pacific corduroy shorts he's bringing back. Route 66 trivia and a website of the week round it out, and Ron closes with a trucking safety tip everyone needs to hear.

This week we kick off griping about the brutal summer heat before Ron takes us deep into trucking life — special permit testing on hazmat cylinders, DOT stops over faded UV labels, and a surprise job site move from McAlester to Ada. From there we go all over the map: celebrity deaths and the state of the news, flock cameras and surveillance, liberty vs. safety, generational apathy, and why we'd rather argue like friends than agree like strangers.
Bryan gives us an update on the podcast player he's building and tells the story of a 99-year-old grandma who reportedly beat up a home intruder. We get into driver-facing AI cameras, backward-facing cameras coming to new vehicles, the national debt and gas prices, and a detour into ham radio contests, HAARP, and shortwave radio. We close it out with the website of the week, a couple of car trouble stories, and our usual value-for-value pitch.

This week Rich, Bryan, and the Duuude catch up after a scorching week — Zoom hiccups, a dead grape myrtle bush, and heat indexes pushing triple digits. Ron doesn't hold back on a gas plant nightmare that nearly cost him his PTO in throat chops, while Bryan gets his hyperlocal news site off the ground and Rich rolls out season three of his other podcast. From there the guys wander through vacation planning, Ron's untouched model kit collection from his grandpa's estate, the last Blockbuster on Earth, dying malls, Rich's GrapheneOS privacy plans, telescope shopping for a nebula shot, and Bryan's oilfield frac work — plus the usual detours into politics, TV, and everything in between.

This week Rich gets ambitious — rescuing a curbside table, building a rolling generator stand with a Harbor Freight deer pulley, and reviving a generator that had sat dead for years. That kicks off a debate over Slap Your Mama versus Tabasco (and whether Tabasco belongs in pepperoni), followed by Mopar's notoriously bad paint jobs and a six-hour fight with a backwards-mounted Jeep alternator. Bryan lays out his plans for a hyperlocal Sayre-to-Weatherford news podcast, complete with sponsor pricing and Perplexity AI research on Western Oklahoma listener numbers. Rich and Ron trade Korea deployment stories — Camp Casey, Camp Stanley, live-fire ranges, and the eternal debate over sea bags versus duffel bags — before the guys cover Ford's oddly named Ranger "Rapture," car telematics selling your driving data to insurance companies, the upcoming Toyota Stout, GrapheneOS and duress-password phone privacy, and close it out with the site of the week: CamelCamelCamel.com.

This week Rich walks through his brutal Jeep shock replacement — a five-minute job that turned into an eight-and-a-half hour fight with stripped lug nuts, a honeycombed shock mount, and a jack that sat on his porch because his pain level had hit a 10. Ron has his own expensive lesson after stacking his Jeep backwards at the monthly car meet, blowing out his power steering booster and stripping studs on his spacers. Bryan shares an update on Jana's hospitalization and the relief that she's finally getting the care she needs. From there the guys cover MTV turning 45, Bryan's tribute to No Agenda's John C. Dvorak, Rich's take on Al Jazeera's surprisingly even-handed reporting, Rich's story on a border-crossing phone search that ended in a GrapheneOS duress wipe, the FCC's Roomba ban, AI hype and Sam Altman wanting your money, Chinese knockoffs versus "Made in America," a school shooting sentencing, home defense philosophy, women in combat roles and the Space Force, and close it out arguing over McDonald's ice cream machines, Biscoff blizzards, and Lorna Doones.
