In this episode, Rob, Corn Dog, and Bernie revisit the original 1969 classic that launched an entire franchise. From Dean Jones' role as struggling racer Jim Douglas to the villainous Peter Thorndyke and the practical effects that brought Herbie to life, the crew explores what made this Disney film such a phenomenon. They also discuss the movie's racing action, behind-the-scenes movie magic, and why Herbie remains one of the most beloved automotive characters ever created.

The Love Bug was a massive box office success, earning more than ten times its production budget and becoming the second-highest-grossing film of 1969. Nearly sixty years later, it still holds up as a fun, family-friendly movie that combines racing, comedy, and heart in a way few automotive films ever have. Join the guys as they celebrate the movie that started it all and revisit one of the greatest car stars ever put on the silver screen.

The post K&F Show #369: The Love Bug Movie Review // The Car That Started It All first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

The story centers around a fake quarantine that traps nearly everyone inside the Hazard County jail while a pair of bank robbers disguised as Laurel and Hardy pull off their heist. That leaves Daisy and Cooter carrying much of the action outside the jailhouse, leading to some genuinely fun and memorable moments. Along the way, we get rare nighttime footage of the General Lee with its headlights on, plenty of comedy from the guest stars, and one of the most recognizable stunts of the entire series.

Most importantly, this episode features what may be the greatest General Lee jump of Season 1—and one that even non-Dukes fans have to admit is impressive. From the action to the humor to the unforgettable stunt work, "Double Sting" closes out the first season in style. Join us as we break down the episode, uncover behind-the-scenes details, and revisit a true Dukes of Hazzard classic.

The post K&F Show #368: The Greatest General Lee Jump? // Dukes of Hazzard S1E13 “Double Sting” Review first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Rob Kibbe, Corndog, and Bernie McPartland revisit this classic Season 1 episode and break down Boss Hogg's elaborate fraud scheme, the introduction of Rick Hurst as Cletus Hogg, and the impressive General Lee action that fills the episode from start to finish. The guys also discuss the unique charm of the early California-filmed episodes, including the rough-and-tumble stunt work, real driving footage, and the debut of Daisy Duke's updated Road Runner that would become a familiar sight throughout the series.

Filled with crooked politics, million-dollar schemes, moonshine mix-ups, and plenty of Hazzard County chaos, "Money to Burn" captures everything that made the first season of The Dukes of Hazzard special. It's an important milestone episode for longtime fans, not only because of Cletus Hogg's debut, but also because it showcases the grounded action, memorable characters, and lighthearted storytelling that helped turn the series into a television classic.

The post K&F Show #367: Cletus Hogg Arrives // Dukes VIDEO Review S1E11 “Money to Burn” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Along the way, the guys break down the similarities between John Milner and Wooderson, revisit some of the greatest cruising scenes ever put on screen, and reflect on why movies like these continue to resonate with anyone who grew up around cars, parking lots, drive-ins, and late-night bench racing with friends. There’s also plenty of the usual K&F chaos mixed in with movie trivia, George Lucas facts, Days of Thunder references, and more random automotive pop culture rabbit trails than should probably fit into one episode.

If you’ve ever spent a summer night cruising with nowhere to go, this episode is going to feel familiar in all the best ways.

The post K&F Show #366-B (BONUS): American Graffiti // Why Car Movies Used to Mean Something first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

The guys also cover Hot Wheels collecting crazes, Tesla Cybertruck recalls, the upcoming Rockford Files reboot, and GM’s confusing LS6 revival before diving into “Deputy Dukes.” In this Season 1 favorite, Bo and Luke temporarily become deputies after Rosco gets suspended, only to find themselves trapped inside another one of Boss Hogg’s schemes. The crew breaks down the episode’s early-series charm, classic patrol car action, and the chemistry that helped make the Dukes of Hazzard such an iconic show.

The post K&F Show #366: Bo & Luke Become the Law // Dukes VIDEO Review S1E10 “Deputy Dukes” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

What makes this episode stand out is how real it feels. This is still early Dukes, where the cars are doing the work, the stunts are practical, and everything has weight to it. The presidential limo feels massive and out of place on dirt roads, and Daisy’s yellow Road Runner—making its final appearance—gets a proper moment to shine as part of the story. At its core, it’s a simple episode about fixing a mistake and doing the right thing, with just enough chaos, humor, and car action to remind you why this show has stuck with people for decades.

The post K&F Show #365: The Presidential Limo Heist // Dukes VIDEO Review S1E9 “Limo One is Missing” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

We break down what makes this movie hit so differently, especially now. From the perspective of looking back on high school versus living it in the moment, the conversation digs into how the film captures that strange in-between phase of life—where you don’t yet know what matters, but somehow you’re right in the middle of it. There’s also plenty of discussion around the characters, including Randall “Pink” Floyd’s internal battle with expectations, Mitch Kramer’s brutal introduction into high school culture, and of course the unforgettable presence of Wooderson—who may or may not have ever actually graduated.

Naturally, we go deep on the cars—and this movie delivers. From the black Chevelle SS 454 to the orange GTO Judge, plus Trans Ams, Broncos, pickups, and everything in between, the car selection is as authentic as it gets. Nothing feels forced or out of place, and that realism adds to the entire experience. The soundtrack gets its due as well, with wall-to-wall 70s rock that drives the tone of every scene and eats up a surprising chunk of the film’s budget.

This is part movie review, part time capsule, and part reflection on what it all meant then—and what it means now. Whether you’ve seen it once or a hundred times, there’s something here that hits a little differently depending on where you are in life.

The post K&F Show #364: Special Edition Movie Review! Dazed and Confused (1993) – Last Day of High School in 1976 first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

In the second half of the episode, we shift gears into a full breakdown of the 2004 film Starsky & Hutch—a movie Corey himself worked on. That means this isn’t just a review… it’s a behind-the-scenes look at what really happened during filming, including a stunt that didn’t exactly go as planned (and yes, it made the final cut). It’s part interview, part movie review, and all the chaos you’d expect when real stunt stories collide with Hollywood storytelling. Buckle up.

The post K&F Show #363: Special Edition Show! Legendary Dukes Stuntman Corey M. Eubanks’ Wildest Stunt Stories – Part 2 first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Along the way, Corey opens up about the reality of stunt work—the pranks, the pressure, and the moments when things don’t go according to plan. From on-set chaos to hard-earned lessons, including a story involving Starsky & Hutch that proves even the best can have a bad day, this is a firsthand look at a career built on instinct and experience. And just as Corey begins to set up one of the wildest stories involving a Jeep and the General Lee, we hit pause—because what happens next deserves its own spotlight in Part 2.

The post K&F Show #362: Special Edition Show! Legendary Dukes Stuntman Corey M. Eubanks’ Wildest Stunt Stories – Part 1 first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

From there, we jump into our Dukes of Hazzard review of Season 1, Episode 8, “The Big Heist.” A desperate farmer robs Boss Hogg and accidentally implicates Bo and Luke after stealing the General Lee, setting off a classic Hazzard County chain reaction. With standout early-season stunt work, real driving footage, and a memorable moment where Daisy puts the General on two wheels, this episode captures everything that made the show great. It’s simple, honest storytelling with just the right mix of action, humor, and heart.

The post K&F Show #361: Easter Traditions, Spring Returns // Dukes VIDEO Review S1E8 “The Big Heist” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Before diving into the movie rewind, the guys warm things up with their usual off-the-rails banter — covering everything from St. Patrick’s Day trivia and spring break plans to a few eyebrow-raising future car rumors spotted in a recent Car and Driver article. That includes reactions to a possible Corvette SUV, a Mustang Raptor, and the rumored return of the Hemi V8 in the Dodge Charger. As always, the conversation drifts through car culture, pop culture, and plenty of laughs before rolling into the movie review that anchors this week’s episode.

The post K&F Show #360: Spring Break Banter & Future Car Rumors // Movie Review, “The Other Guys” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Despite the awkward romance storyline, the crew finds plenty to enjoy in the episode thanks to the racing action and early California production style. The Hazard Derby delivers some great car footage, including the General Lee battling through the obstacle course and plenty of raw stunt driving that helped define the show’s early seasons. Rob, Corndog, and Bernie also dig into behind-the-scenes details, including the surviving Georgia-built General Lees still being used during these early California episodes and the unique cars created for the race. In the end, the episode earns mixed reactions from the crew, but the racing and stunt work keep it memorable for Dukes fans.

The post K&F Show #359: Spring Break Confusion, “This Week vs Next Week” // Dukes VIDEO Review S1E7 “Luke’s Love Story” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

For the Dukes Review, the crew heads back to Season 1, Episode 6 — “Swamp Molly.” This episode marks the beginning of the crisp California look many fans associate with the show. When old family friend Swamp Molly calls in a favor from Uncle Jesse, the Dukes agree to help run what they believe is moonshine — only to discover the cargo is actually a truckload of illegal firearms. The episode delivers classic early-season action including an ice cream truck disguise, swamp landings, Rosco’s outrage at “un-American” crime, and plenty of General Lee driving. The guys also dive into production details like early General Lee quirks, background car spotting, and the raw stunt work that made the early seasons feel so authentic.

The post K&F Show #358: Dallas Late Model Racing, and the 4AM Smoke Alarm Disaster // Dukes VIDEO Review S1E6 “Swamp Molly” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Before we get to Hazzard, the guys reflect on the passing of Robert Duvall and his unforgettable presence in automotive cinema — especially Days of Thunder. From Daytona 500 reactions to racing rule debates and short track chaos, Rob brings a full Dallas Kibbe Racing update, including brake failures, podium finishes, and real-world racing lessons from a five-day national event. It’s real racing talk mixed with the usual KF nonsense.

Then it’s time for the Dukes Review — and “High Octane” might just be the Georgia-era sleeper hit. Uncle Jesse breaks probation for patriotic reasons (moonshine-as-fuel, naturally), Boss Hogg plots to steal the credit, and we get introduced to Sweet Tilly — Jesse’s legendary moonshine-running Ford LTD. Add in one of the hardest early-season General Lee jumps ever filmed (over a semi on Georgia Highway 20), a one-episode revenue agent, and some serious Charger nerd deep-dives from Corndog, and you’ve got an episode that reminds everyone why the Georgia-filmed shows just hit differently.

The guys break down:
• The semi-truck jump and which General Lee likely paid the price
• Georgia filming locations and production details
• The debut of Sweet Tilly
• Early Boss & Rosco Laurel-and-Hardy chemistry
• Why this episode feels like the true send-off to the Georgia era

It’s vintage Dukes storytelling with modern car-guy commentary —
exactly what Phase 4 was built for.

The post K&F Show #357: Duvall Tribute, Dallas Takes 3rd in Nationals, and Daytona Drama! // Dukes VIDEO Review S1E5 “High Octane” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

To celebrate the Daytona 500, we’re revisiting our full review of Days of Thunder — still the greatest racing movie ever made. Yes, it’s “Top Gun in a stock car,” and that’s exactly why it works. We break down the racing roots of Cole Trickle, the Harry Hogge mentorship arc, the real NASCAR influences behind the film, and why quotes like “Rubbin’, son, is racin’” still live rent-free in every race fan’s brain. Released in 1990, directed by Tony Scott, and starring Tom Cruise, Robert Duvall, Nicole Kidman, and Michael Rooker, the film earned nearly $158 million worldwide and remains a cornerstone of modern racing pop culture. If it’s Daytona week, it’s time for Days of Thunder.

The post K&F Show #356: Dallas Race Week, Florida Speed, and Daytona Fever // NASCAR Movie Review + Days of Thunder first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Rob Kibbe, Justin “Corndog” Cornette, and producer Bernie McPartland break down why “Repo Men” is a fan-favorite: Bo and Luke get pulled into a crooked car-dealer scheme involving a Rolls-Royce repo, a counterfeit ring, and some truly savage stunt payoff. Along the way, the guys spotlight what makes the Georgia episodes special — the chemistry between Bo and Luke, the early-series simplicity, and the wild practical stunts that feel like they could never happen the same way today. And of course, Corndog goes deep on General Lee specifics: the rare window-up shots, the ’68 tells, and the car-history rabbit holes that turn this review into a full Dukes enthusiast session.

The post K&F Show #355: Broken Arms, Bad General Lees, and Bernie on the News // Dukes VIDEO Review S1E4 “Repo Men” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Rob Kibbe, Justin “Corndog” Cornette, and producer Bernie McPartland break down why Ford vs Ferrari works on every level — from Christian Bale’s unforgettable performance as Ken Miles, to the tension between racers and the boardroom, to the brutal reality of 24-hour competition. The GT40 becomes more than just a car, it becomes a character, and the movie becomes more than just a race film. It’s a story about passion, sacrifice, and the cost of chasing perfection at full throttle.

The post K&F Show #354: Race Season, January Auction Record Sales, & the Story Behind It All // Car MOVIE Review “Ford vs Ferrari” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Then it’s time for our Dukes of Hazzard review, now available on YouTube as part of Phase 4 of the show. This week we’re breaking down Season 1, Episode 2, “Daisy’s Song,” one of the original Georgia-filmed episodes. Daisy discovers her song has been recorded — but she never got paid — which sends Bo and Luke undercover to shut down a full-blown record piracy operation run by Boss Hogg himself. This episode delivers major Dukes lore, including why the General Lee’s doors are welded shut, plus some of the earliest and best screen time for both the General and Daisy’s Roadrunner. Final score from all of us: a unanimous 10 out of 10.

The post K&F Show #353: Quitters Day 2026 and Killer Racing SIM Rigs // Dukes VIDEO Review S1E2 “Daisy’s Song” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

From there, the crew goes all the way back to the beginning with a review of The Dukes of Hazzard pilot episode, “One Armed Bandits.” This first outing is far edgier than most fans remember—more Smokey and the Bandit than wholesome family TV—with bar fights, crooked politics, and Daisy Duke causing trouble from the start. Rough around the edges but packed with nostalgia, this episode lays the foundation for everything that followed, including the iconic jump over Sheriff Roscoe’s car that became part of the show’s opening credits for years to come.

The post K&F Show #352: Goals for 2026 and KF Phase Four Begins!! // Dukes VIDEO Review S1E1 “One Armed Bandits” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

From nitrous-bottle shenanigans courtesy of Roscoe, to Ma Parker’s muscle, to some of the best stunt driving the series ever filmed, this is everything we love about the Dukes wrapped into one episode. The Chevelle vs. Charger showdown, jumps, pipe-ramps, engine notes, broken parts, and that unforgettable backwards-finish stunt make it a perfect 10 episode in our book. Settle in and enjoy the ride—this is Dukes gold.

The post KAF Show #351: Special Edition Christmas Break Show! // Dukes Review S3E13 “Duke vs Duke” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

From there, the crew dives into why Christmas Vacation still works no matter how many times you’ve seen it. They talk about aging from Rusty into Clark Griswold, revisit the scenes that still make them laugh every single time, and swap favorite moments that prove it’s not about the plot—it’s about delivery, timing, and how real the chaos feels. Along the way, they sprinkle in car-guy details, Vacation lore, and a killer behind-the-scenes nugget about a scripted ending that never made the final cut. If this movie is part of your yearly ritual, this episode will make you want to queue it up again as soon as the show ends.

The post Kibbe & Friends Show #350: 2025 Christmas Spectacular with the Griswolds // Car Movie Review: Christmas Vacation – The Gift that Keeps on Giving the Whole Year! first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

The guys then shift gears into full automotive pop-culture mode with an enthusiastic breakdown of the brand-new Travis Pastrana Gymkhana film, shot entirely in Australia and packed with jaw-dropping stunts. From Pastrana’s all-wheel-drive Subaru Brat “Bratteroo 9500 Turbo” to the level of cinematography and stunt precision that would make Ken Block proud, the team can’t stop raving about it. Add a weather report, some trademark KF tangents, and holiday movie teasing for next week, and Episode 349 becomes the perfect mix of Christmas spirit, horsepower, and pure KF fun.

The post K&F Show #349: Toys for Tots 2025 and Pastrana’s Wildest Gymkhana Yet // NEW Dukes Christmas Review: S3E7 “The Great Santa Claus Chase” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

But being K&F, the review doesn’t stop at plot and characters—the guys treat Elf like a full-blown car movie. They dig into the real New York City Crown Vic taxis Buddy dodges throughout the film, talk P-codes and wheelbases, and then go full “Corndog Spec Ops” on the five different sleighs built for production—including which were stunt shells, which survived, and why the hero sleigh might secretly be Mopar-powered. If you love Christmas movies, deep-cut trivia, and automotive rabbit holes disguised as holiday cheer, this is a must-listen episode.

From all of us here at Kibbe & Friends, we want to wish you and your family a warm, happy, and safe Thanksgiving.

The goal is to get funds in the hands of Toys for Tots in time to make a real impact this Christmas, helping kids and families who need it most.

To celebrate the 40th anniversary of Back to the Future, the episode finishes with a full replay of the very first BTTF review the guys ever recorded—an episode their team says “made the ensemble click.” It’s the perfect mix of SEMA chaos, racing stories, and time-travel nostalgia… plus the kickoff of their annual Toys for Tots fundraiser with the U.S. Marine Corps. Dive in and enjoy the ride!

The post K&F Show #345: SEMA 2025, Road Coarse Racing, and Matthew McConaughey // Car Movie Review – 40th Anniversary of Back to the Future! first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

From there, it’s full-throttle storytelling—Dallas Kibbe’s run at the Legends Asphalt Nationals, a turbocharged Holley feature, and a round of movie-car trivia that somehow loops Ben Stiller, Owen Wilson, and Cars’ Lightning McQueen into the mix. Add in Bernie’s trademark “news you didn’t ask for” (rogue monkeys and all), and you’ve got another classic K&F blend of cars, culture, and comedy. It’s Vegas lights, Georgia dirt, and General Lee nostalgia rolled into one big laugh-filled episode.

The post K&F Show #344: Dallas Races and the KF Show Hits Vegas for SEMA 2025! Dukes of Hazzard Review: S1E12 “Route 7-11” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Meanwhile, Rob gears up for Dallas Kibbe’s first Las Vegas race weekend, with the No. 13 car back on track at The Bullring before heading into the Asphalt Nationals. It’s a huge test for the season, and listeners get an inside look at prep, pressure, and the thrill of competition. And then comes a bold idea — could Kibbe and Friends actually host a General Lee giveaway? Not confirmed, but the possibility is on the table. Would you want in? Tune in to find out — available now on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube!

The post K&F Show #343: Bernie’s Birthday and a General Lee Giveaway (Maybe)? // Car Movie Review: “Speed Zone” – the Lost John Candy Flick! first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

But the real horsepower hits in the back half of the show with a Patreon-exclusive deep dive into the surviving screen-used General Lees, guided by the encyclopedic mind of Corndog himself. Then, for dessert, the guys crack open a vintage interview with John Schneider — a fan-favorite throwback where Bo Duke talks about filming the final jumps, correcting paint mistakes on the reunion cars, and the hidden realities of life on set. It’s equal parts hilarious, heartfelt, and totally “Hazzard.”

The post K&F Show #342: Rise of AI Corndog! Surviving General Lees, Lost VINs, and a Vintage Chat with Bo Duke Himself, John Schneider! first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Bernie’s news (presented by National Parts Depot) covers the industry and the track: Bosch trims auto-parts jobs, modern-car “features” that drive us nuts (blinding DRLs, multipurpose buttons), and Ida Zetterström’s jaw-dropper .000 reaction time in Top Fuel versus Tony Stewart. There’s also a Route 66 “Pavement Pounder” road trip—think keys-in-hand cruise to SEMA with badges and Semafest perks—plus Rob’s cursed-but-fun weekend (bank card fraud, a cranky 944 speedo, and one life-changing smash burger).

Rob tees up an Ask Rick crossover for The MuscleCar Place: Bob Lutz on EV inevitability and Rick Schmidt’s response. Then it’s a Dukes of Hazzard rewind—“State of the County”—where Daisy’s new flame carries fireworks, Boss J.W. Hickman is played by Larry D. Mann (yes, Yukon Cornelius), and an Oak Ridge Boys cameo caps a leaf-strewn car-chase episode (call it 6–7 Corn Dogs). Sponsors: Holley has fall deals; NPD keeps the parts coming. Hit play for the full Dallas timeline, the Vegas plan, and all the laughs we didn’t spoil.

The post K&F Show #341: Dallas’ Wild Jefferson Weekend, the Road to SEMA, and a Dukes Review S3, E12 “State of the County” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Promoter Jimi Day calls MoParty “America’s high-performance Mopar event,” and this year backed it up: autocross, speed-stop, drags, burnouts, monster-truck crush, parade laps, the mullet showdown, and the new circle-track headliner, Vandemonium. Crowds packed in, the sun didn’t quit, and the show never slowed.

On the field, highlights included ~35 Hemi cars in one lineup, a crisp white ’70 Road Runner pilot car, plenty of wagons, and lovable oddballs (mid-’70s Chargers, Cordobas, Magnums). Best of Show: a clean, purpose-built white Duster.

Vandemonium stole the night—YouTube’s Dylan McCool took the win in a 2016 A-Team-styled Caravan (proper cage, sticky tires, no ill-timed nitrous), and we grabbed him for a shade-tree chat on his “omelet C10,” shortened ’72 Challenger/buggy mash-up, and his dad’s hand-lettered Petty-blue ’70 Satellite. Fabrication fans will also dig Grant Skidmore’s lowered, Whipple-blown ’97 Jeep Cherokee XJ (AX15, leaf-under, 14.4 in the quarter), plus TV-vet-turned-creator Tommy Boshers’ family-built “Hemibago”—a ’71 Winnebago with a Hellcat, side-pipe cutouts, Road Runner horn, and delightfully retro interior.

Wrap it with classic K&F energy: Bernie’s news (NPD shout-out), a quick celeb game, and Rob’s home-front update—skipping MoParty to coach Dallas to a strong P2 at Elko. Subscribe on Apple Podcasts/YouTube Music, jump into Patreon at patreon.com/KFshow, and big thanks to Holley for making MoParty the fall’s can’t-miss event (Ford Intergalactic is up next).

Movie Recap: Stroker Ace

If you love Smokey and the Bandit, Cannonball Run, WKRP in Cincinnati, Gomer Pyle, and Days of Thunder, this movie might be for you... maybe.

Stroker Ace is like a mashup of every 80s cult favorite — minus the darkness of Deliverance (except for Ned Beatty), and with none of the high-octane realism of Days of Thunder. It's wildly inappropriate by today’s standards, filled with sexual innuendo, confederate flags, and glorified nonsense — but it still makes us laugh.

When Hal Needham called, Burt Reynolds answered... and created a legendary box office flop that lives on in NASCAR movie history. Why?
Because he was driving the Fastest Chicken in the South.

Directed by:
Hal Needham

Starring:
Burt Reynolds
Ned Beatty
Jim Nabors

Loni Anderson

Released: 7/1/1983

Dukes Review: For the record, we chose this episode because Corndog wants to pile on that CEO and that HR lady that have made infidelity the most popular public shaming event since the invention of the internet Meme. We also learn that the P in Rosco P Coltraine stands for Pervis.

This episode starts with an upside down smashed GL….and just gets better. Rosco p Coltrane gets the CEO Treatment by a well built mail order bride, and it’s the oldest trick in the book: young woman with a husband and crony convince a Sheriff to get him out of the way so Boss Hogg can be conveniently robbed while everyone is attending a wedding.

In the midst we see the General get totalled, untotalled, retotalled, untotaled, and then retotaled again (only to then be replaced by a horse). The sloppiness of automotive continuity in this episode is awful, and that’s what makes it so right - plus the stunts are off the chart. Oh, and the saying The Lord Helps Those That Help Themselves…..that’s not actually in the Bible. Might be in the US Constitution though. Or possibly National Treasure.

Rating: 10 (of 10) Corndogs

Dukes Review: I thought this was an episode with, by, and starring Cleetus in his debut in the Dukes of hazard. It is, it isn't, and it isn't in that order. Cleetus Hogg is introduced to us all in this Season 1 Dukes episode to play the role of Boss Hogg’s second cousin twice removed flunky. He does and he is. But he somehow ends up helping Boss Hogg in a bank heist…..that he was in on before it was conceived. And then he fails at it. And then Bo and Luke save the day…..by doing a literal body snatching swap, only I’m not sure that they meant to. Just like Cleetus said in the S3 Episode The Great Santa Claus Chase, "Can someone come get me; I’m lost!" But, it is a Season 1 Dukes Episode, shot in California with 14” wheels on Chargers, and Al Wyatt stunt driving the General in Full Send mode for the entire. C'est magnifique!

Movie Review: "F1" (The Brad Pitt Movie!)

I don’t know a thing about F1, but if this movie does for F1 what Days of Thunder did for NASCAR, an entire generation of kids are about to dream about being the next Sonny Hayes. And just like Days of Thunder was Top Gun on Wheels, F1 is Top Gun Maverick on…more expensive wheels!

Brad Pitt plays Sonny Hayes - an aging multi series vagabond driver who lives for the thrill of driving and the hope that on the track he can feel God’s pleasure upon him. (He didn't say it that way in the movie but that was the gist of it.) As a kid he was coming into Formula 1 when he had a devastating accident. It cost him his future to be the next Senna. He went to drinking spiral, bad marriages, then driving taxis, and then found his way into any racing series that would have him and let him try to tame it. And they all did. Sports cars, NASCAR, Off Road, and now F1.

His job in this movie, to get a young hot shot up to speed and save the rag tag racing team they’re all there with to save their jobs. It's predictable, it's beautiful, it's fun, and it's fast. In a nutshell: awesome.

Dukes Review: S7E1 Happy Birthday General Lee

The greatest race of the General Lee is not in this episode…..but it’s the first win of the General, and I have recently been reminded that your first win is irreplaceable. There’s no doubt about the fact that in the course of the Dukes of Hazzard, this is the race that put him on the map.

Thomas Steven Wopat presents the birth of the General Lee and - whether he meant to or not - creates the canon of the entire series by answering what every little boy needed to know most. Why are the doors welded shut? It’s here. What’s under the hood of the General? It’s here. Why is the General orange, with a rebel flag on the roof, a dixie horn under the hood, and why is it named General Lee? It’s here. More importantly, how does an old dead wreck from a junkyard become able to fly leaps and bounds, win every race, catch every bad guy, win every girl for the Duke Boys, respond to it’s name on command, be so much of a family member it gets it’s own birthday cake, and become the most magical car in the history of the known universe and the most famous car in the world? It’s here!

Welcome from the Charlotte, Race City USA!

The High Performance Expo was a big success, and the Kibbe Boys (i.e. Rob and Dallas) got the chance to take in even MOR than just the High Performance Expo itself. Thanks to NHRA Superstar Clay Millicaon and KAFS Show Super Stud Listener (and Hendrick Motorsports employee) Austin Darling we got to visit not one, but TWO NASCAR Shops; Rick Ware Racing thanks to Clay, and Hendrick thanks to Austin! Both were outstanding experiences to get a true inside look at the craft, business, tech, and reality of a NASCAR life.

At Hendrick we even got the chance to attend a Bible lesson over lunch AND visit Rick Hendrick’s personal car and memorabilia collections. It was nothing short of unbelievable! Austin surprised us with his ’68 Newport sitting out front of Hendrick Motorsports, complete with a 440, A/C, steelies, and a tribute name of “Sweet Tilly” in honor of Uncle Jesse’s Dukes of Hazzard Season 1 moonshine car. You can follow him on Instagram via @pawpaws_speedshop and on YouTube at Paw Paw’s Speedshop as well. .

For a full recap (and 2 hour bonus show special) from the High Performance Expo be sure to listen to The MuscleCar Place Episode 612.

Docuseries Discussion: Earnhardt

Series Summary: We’re doing a double header in this episode as we continue our “Month of Racing” for June 2025. To cut to the chase, if you haven’t seen the new Dale Earnhardt docuseries on Amazon Prime yet….you need to. It’s an in redible production detailing the true life and drive of Dale Earnhardt, success, flaws, and all. It’s told through the eyes of Darrell Waltrip, Dale’s racing competitors, and especially his children; Kerry, Dale Jr, and Kelly (his 4th child Taylor is not onscreen).

It’s a remarkable series, and while you’ll leave with respect and awe for the man on the track….you’ll have a true lump in your throat about how he lived in life, and what he lived it for.

This is not a paid endorsement or review at all, nor is this an affiliate link. This is just our honest take on what is (in our opinion) an outstanding series and worth your money and time! Enjoy. Here’s the link!

Movie Review: Stroker Ace

In June of 2025 we are doing our Month of Racing! We originally reviewed the Burt Reynolds Classic “Stroker Ace” in Episodes 117 and 118 as well as the month end Patreon show in July of 2019. Enjoy!

Movie Summary: This is it! After waiting years to prepare we finally did a full review of the 2005 Dukes of Hazzard movie. This was a $50Million dollar big screen production of our favorite TV show, featuring our favorite car doing the best big screen performance any car has ever performed, ever (we’re looking your way, Bullitt).

Other than the car…..this isn’t the TV series Dukes that you know. Boss Hogg (played by Burt Reynolds) is skinny. Rosco is mean, not goofy. Bo is scared of women. Luke can’t drive. Uncle Jesse is crass. But….if you can get past all of that and leave it for what it is, we loved it. Our man Corndog was onsite for the entire filming of the movie in Louisiana and had the full skinny on every car there that played the General Lee (all 27 of them).

Movie Review: Stroker Ace

In June of 2025 we are doing our Month of Racing! We originally reviewed the Burt Reynolds Classic "Stroker Ace" in Episode 178 in February of 2021. Enjoy!

Movie Recap: If you loved Smokey and the Bandit, Cannonball Run, Police Academy, WKRP, Gomer Pyle: USMC, The Hardy Boys, Elvira: Mistress of the Dark, Deliverance, and Days of Thunder….this is like all of them combined, minus ….basically everything from Deliverance except Ned Beaty, and all of the really good stuff from Days of Thunder like Tom Cruise and amazing cinematography with real in car race footage at speed. This movie would be culture cancelled today. Sexual harassment is considered innocent fun, women are ogled, there’s (ironically) no drug use, and the confederate flags are a plenty. But when Hal Needham called, Burt Reynolds answered...and made a box office flop that has kept us all clucking and chuckling to this day. Why? Because he was driving the FASTEST CHICKEN IN THE SOUTH.

K&F Movie Summary - Summer Automotive BlockBuster Re-Review!

Note - the movie review segment of this episodes originally ared in KF Show #295. Bernie just INSISTS on mailing it in! We finally let him. -Rob and CD 

We saw it! Ryan Gosling plays the Fall Guy in the big screen movie. Any of our fears about this ruining a beloved TV tale about stunts and jump trucks were wrong! The movie is great and while it might be a one and done it could certainly feature sequels too! Gosling plays the Colt Seavers, a Hollywood stunt man that ends up having to solve a mystery, while jumping trucks and doing stunts. Sound familiar?

Colt ends up being nearly killed during the opening movie-within-a-movie stunt (that Gosling really did) due to sabotage by the jealous star that he’s doubling. It breaks his confidence and takes him away from the career (and woman) that he loves. But, when Jody the camera girl becomes Jody the director of the biggest baddest stunt movie ever to be made….he comes out of retirement to get it done. And save the relationship. And solve the mystery of the leading man that was dead…..or was he? In it are thrown in intentional meta references, sound effects and songs that will make your hears sing, aliens that make you laugh, all leading to the good guy winning in the end with the help of the girl….and a brown and gold GMC truck.

Get to the theater NOW to see it on the real big screen. You'll probably need to go twice.

Dukes Review:

It’s been three years since I last saw this episode, and I still get sick to my stomach when the General Lee gets stolen and brainwashed by the bad guys, then tries to murder the Dukes even though they all nearly get themselves killed trying to save him. Luke fights two guys to the death basically, and Bo is nearly smeared by a train at the same time. But just like last time we reviewed this if it weren’t for the miniature stunt - which thankfully were minimal - this episode would be an 11 out of 10. The General gets turned into a remote controlled car, set to detail a train full of money with a load of dynamite in the trunk. Boss Hogg was behind the scheme of course, but the Dukes came back and nearly fought to the death to protect the most important their lives: their honor? No. Their fortune? No? Their reputation? NO! It was their car! We have all learned this life lesson, and like them we all know that cars have a soul, need to be protected, and need to be fought for. I give this episode - 10 Corndogs, of which are Season 7 Corndogs, which do not have an equivalent exchange rate to say Season 2 or something. So 10 dogs here is basically the equivalent of 6.5 in years past.

Bonus Interview: Steven Thomas, "The Detail Kid!"

KF Faithful, we break from our regular programming for this standalone KF Bonus show! If you need something to boost your spirits this week and give you a little hope for the future....this is just want you need.

This month for our Patreon audience we did our Member Only show, but with a twist; we were joined by our newest $20 Patreon Member for his fun one-on-one session. Even better, he did his interview with us from his bedroom....after he got home from school!

Meet Steven Thompson from Idaho, the world's youngest certified car detailer! He has followed in his father's footsteps in the detailing business and along the way has traveled coast to coast detailing cars, airplanes, and also teaching people far older than him how to do the same. Better yet, he listens to this show for the same reason that nearly all of you do as well: he LOVES the Dukes of Hazzard! After this interview all three of us were in a far better mood that (frankly) left us all hopeful for the future. It'll likely do the same for you!

This month we chose Steven as our most Deserving Pateroner as well, and his membership for May will be on our dime. We encourage you to follow his socials and his YouTube channel as well:

Dukes Review:

Bo and Luke intercept some stolen diamonds. The leader of the crime ring fakes her identity as a newspaper reporter and the then hilarity ensues…..as the diamonds are pursued by Boss Hogg and Rosco - and hidden - without their knowledge - with Boss and Rosco, and then the diamonds are turned over to the FBI…..but it’s not the real FBI, it’s the fake FBI. But then Bo and Luke get them back. Everybody got that? In the meantime we get one more childlike fun where Rosco asks Boss to play with a Bugs Bunny doll and Cletus is sent to fetch 7 Corndogs for lunch, 1 for Rosco and 6 for Boss, and line that defines the Dukes of Hazzard that made every kid my age believe that a real stud of a man didn’t throw footballs or play golf - they drove cars fast. 10 Dogs.

Car Movie Review:
Vince Vaughn and Kevin James play college best friends and entrepreneurs that are the classic Visionary/Integrator of successful business. Neither would be successful without the other! They go into business - to electrify Dodge muscle cars - that provide the sounds to fool the customer into thinking they’re listening to a V8 while they’re just hearing an electric motor spin. Did we mention this movie came out in 2011?

In between the car drama, Kevin James wife is cheating on him (and he's doing a few shameful things too). Vince Vaughn is stuck in the dilemma of trying to protect his best friend while dealing with the doubt of others from his past as a gambling addict. The end result is that we get an entirely movie of hilarity and HEMI powered classic Dodges - just for fun!

This movie has "real" other actors too! Winona Rider, Jennifer Connately, Channing Tatum, and Queen Latifah round out the ensemble. Even more impressive, the director was a big name too; Ron Howard! I’m telling you, in 2011 someone at Dodge saw this movie and just copied the whole thing. 14 years later, it’s a realty. The new 2025 Charger is electric and has a speaker system of V8 sounds. Even better, we get a bro movie between Vince Vaughn and Kevin James. The only thing that would make it better is if it were Paul Blart Mall Cop 3!

Dukes Review:
Bo and Luke are deputized to pay off a traffic citation while driving the General Lee naked and crashing into Rosco’s patrol car. As part of their new Deputy duties that are required to escort Public Enemy #1 from Springfield to Hazzard. This leads to them (kind of?) sexually harassing Dolly Parton’s sister. Following that, Dolly’s sister goes rogue and tries to kill Public Enemy #1. But then, it all works out and only the bad guy goes to prison, Dolly goes back to Springfield, and Waylon gets back to inappropriate comments about women (which is apparently OK in Season 1).

Dukes Review:
Actor Jonathan Frakes plays "Jamie Lee Hogg"….but of course he is better known to millions of loyal Trekkies and Commander William Riker of the Starship Enterprise (1701-D). That’s right. This is the Star Trek to Dukes of Hazzard crossover that will have Ryan Brutt and I on the same side of the fight….until this episode is over, of course.

Plot: Boss Hogg’s umpteenth previously unnamed nephew shows up in Hazzard to make some ill gotten gains…only to accidentally fall in love with Daisy Duke. That’s all well and good except Boss Hogg, Uncle Jessie, and all of the evil business partners are against it…and to make things worse, the evil guys want Daisy killed before she learns too much! But then the Hogg wants to marry the Duke and the evil partners think it’s so sweet. This leads to every body panel on Rosco’s patrol car being surgically removed in a hilarious fashion, a massive car chase, a few recycled car jumps, and a remarkable amount of improv by Tom and John. Oh, and they don't get married and live happily ever after, either. And by next weeks show this will all be long forgotten!

KF Episode Summary: 

This is our Tribute to the late great Gene Hackman! While he’s not a car star to us all his movie The French Connection is one the most iconic of it’s day. For many of us, he’s the best part about dozens of movies that we have loved for over 50 years!

From The French Connection to Hoosiers, The Replacements, Crimson Tide, even The Royal Tenenbaums, Gene's acting chops marked him as one of the best actors to ever grace the big screen. He'll be missed.

As we learned doing research, Gene actually WAS a car guy and had done a considerable amount of racing. He followed in the footsteps of Paul Newman and fell in love with amateur/celebrity racing initially, trained at the Bob Bondurant school, and  eventually became involved with Dan Gurney for celebrity and professional races with TOYOTA. 

We discussed Gene's awesome career in the episode and included a re-broadcast from The Kibbe and Finnegan Show where we had reviewed "The Replacements". This movie is the story we all want; a chance to live up to the potential of something that we loved from our youth and maybe came close to achieving, but for whatever reason failed at, or it fizzled out, or it just ended for reasons we couldn’t control. Keanu is honestly pretty good as a south-paw quarterback and it’s a great movie full of inspirational one-liners you’ll love to quote. Here’s one for you: “Pain heals, Chicks Dig Scars, and Glory Lasts Forever.” K&F Show Rating: 8 Corndogs!

KF Dukes Episode Summary: 

Once again we get an episode of the Dukes that’s racist and misogynistic (and by the way internet, that's a tongue-in-cheek joke that means the episode is the opposite thing). The Dukes meet a female NASCAR driver and have then do the unthinkable.......they just treat her as a complete equal and respect her highly!

Anyway, Daisy gets recruited by Molly Hargrove, a former lady NASCAR driver who needed a new driver to pay her bills…..at any cost.  Her plan is to teach Daisy how to win as a no good dirty evil driver…..someone so heinous they would spin people out on the last lap of the Daytona 500. Can you imagine such a thing? Anyway,  Boss Hogg weasels in on the deal, Bo and Luke beat up bad guys, Daisy quits and Daisy comes back home. This is the episode that made me think becoming a race car driver was super lucrative and that basically driving any car was like driving a stock car as long as it has a window net.

Movie Review: Days of Thunder

Note: This episodes features a rebroadcast of our review of Days of Thunder from KF Show 216. Just like Cole Trickle, we're more afraid of being nothing than we are of being hurt. Somehow....that makes this re-run make a lot more sense. Enjoy!

Summary: The team that brought you Top Gun, brings you Top Car - better known as Days of Thunder. Both movies feature a wildly talented but undisciplined rebel who is as awesome with driving machinery as he is with the ladies. Both feature a helmet-less motorcycle riding Tom Cruise as the lead who goes through massive success riding his own ego….until his butt can’t cash them when he gets hurt - in one case just mentally, and in the other physically. Both leave him scared to re-engage at the thing he does best...until he basically resolves it in about 20 seconds by realizing….he’d damn well better or his friends were going to die in one case, and in the other they’d just be super bummed they lost the race...and move on with life. Whatever.

Both feature a wise father figure Tom Cruise at first rejects the authority of, then later craves the leadership and approval from. Both have Val Kilmer as Iceman playing the uber talented and more successful nemesis turned friend….except in Days of Thunder it’s Michael Rooker playing Rowdy Burns, both have an amazing failure on the first try to woo the leading lady, and both have a dead goose scene...except in days of thunder it was just a bird run over by a rental car. This is the most perfect racing movie of all however, and even today still is adored by fans - and NASCAR drivers - including the current reigning NASCAR Cup Series Champion who goes by the name of Rowdy Busch...and runs number 51 on his own race cars outside of the Cup Series. This is the movie that proves to get the girls, you gotta go fast, and if you’re from California you’re not really a yankee...you’re not really from anywhere.

Classic Car Movie Review with Mike Finnegan: Groundhog Day

NOTE: This movie review was originally published in Episode 58 of the K&F show. We know that. You know that. It's like we're living the same day over and over, right?

K&F Show Summary:

It's February, the Super Bowl and the Daytona 500 are right around the corner, Valentine's Day is upon is, and once again Groundhog Day has come and gone. It's 6 more weeks of winter....again! This seemed like a perfect excuse to re-run our classic review of the movie of the same name.

What can we say that you don't know already about the movie Groundhog Day? As it turns out...plenty, but mostly because it amused us to do so. This is the epic fable of the blessing - or curse - of repeating a day over and over and over again. Bill Murray stars as the Phil the weatherman from Philly, sent to cover Phil the Groundhog from Punxsutawney give his annual weather prognostication. Only for Phil the weatherman, Phil the Groundhog causes him to re-live his day in Punxsutawney over, and over, and over again. He tries to eat, drink, and kill himself every day...but it fails. Only when he starts doing acts of service and kindness do things improve. Then he finds love and gets out of the cycle, conveniently about when the movie is ready to end. It's fantastic. There's a Chevy C-20 that bites it at one point too. And an Eldorado drives on train tracks. 10-out-of-10 Corndogs.

K&F Show Summary:
Every four years in the United States we swear in a Presidential administration and this year is no different. Donald Trump has become just the second person in U.S. history to serve in non-consecutive terms. We dug into that and other fun-filled Wikipedia facts about Presidential stuff. Also covered: Bernie on the News, January Celebrity Automotive Birthdays, and a review of the second episode of Tim Allen's new ABC car-themed sitcom: Shifting Gears. 

Dukes of Hazzard Episode Review:
This episode has everything. Small pushbar Generals, egregious use of the concept of amnesia, Voice impersonation as good - or better than - AI, and a clearly directed passenger side entry of the General by Daisy that doesn’t seem helpful in any way…..other than for where the camera was placed if you get by gist. Bo gets amnesia by hitting his head on a rock. In turn Boss convinces him that he is his loving father, and that be needs Bo to be a good son and drive a load of moonshine through Chickasaw county. What’s unbeknownst to Bo but knownst to us that Sheriff Little is there waiting for him….because he hates moonshiners.  This is a fun episode where there’s no point, there’s no lesson, and there’s no dramatic acting - in any way; it’s just just pure automotive escapism.

K&F Movie Summary: This is proof that a Will Ferrell comedy - with the same humor as a Will Ferrell comedy - and the same production crew as a Will Ferrell comedy - and a star studded 2009 comedy cast - without Will Ferrell in the comedy…..is somehow just not as good. Jeremy Piven plays Don “The Goods” Ready, a Mercenary car salesman leading a crew of wild and crazy car movers. They’re the people dealers call in when then need the lots emptied. Think of them as the A-Team, with less guns and waaaaaaaay more smut. When i chose this movie I thought - hey - a movie with a great cast and great humor potential - and great cars….and what I got was……a movie I didn’t hate but will likely never watch again. At least they have a Bandit Trans Am reference. That's something. 6 Dogs!

K&F Show Summary:

2025 is here! We're kicking things off with a look at what we're in for this year, Bernie on the News, and a look at Tim Allen's new ABC car-themed sitcom: Shifting Gears. We're going to add it to the pop culture review!

Dukes Review: This is the first episode to release in 1985 and was (as of right now) exactly 40 years ago! By this point in the show the series was actually over. Filming had ceased. Actors were looking for new jobs. General Lee’s were sitting idly, waiting for a young Corndog to document them, knowing that there were 27 General Lee’s at the time and he stashed 8 of them for himself to find when he grew up. Tom Wopat directs the episode and - like his previous episodes - really gives fan service, interesting camera angles, and always establishes where the General is. There are no miniatures used of any kind - only recycled footage of jumps and new wrecks. At the end everyone is on scene together and happy. Rosco is over the top funny. It’s a really nice episode. White there are no new jumps, there are new stunts in it - including a big General Lee wreck that is potentially that last GL to be wrecked on screen. But I have to admit…it kind of seems like a goodbye.

Christmas Movie Review: "The Christmas Chronicles"

K&F Show Summary:

Merry Christmas! I addition to our year end Christmas Music spectacular game we are pleased to bring you our review of "The Christmas Chronicles" movie starring Kurt Russell. This movie may portray the coolest onscreen Santa ever...and he even knows how to drift a Challenger! This review originally aired in KF Show #281 in 2023. 

Movie Summary: Two kids who have lost their dad to tragedy are on the very edge of tragedy themselves…the tragedy of not believing! Teddy the older brother is turning to crime, and Katy the younger sister is innocent. They catch Santa in the act at their house, jump in his sleigh, scare the bejesus out of him, lose the reindeer and the presents, crash the sleigh, steal a red 2009 Dodge Challenger, jump it, end up in jail, then a chop shop, and then have to get it all back together by Christmas morning or the world explodes. Even worse, during the chaos they also lost Santa’s magic hat, which is the think that makes the sleigh fly! At the end though they make it just in time to Save Christmas and Santa finally reveals (in the coolest of Kurt Russell moves) that the hat was a ruse. As Santa Claus himself could (of course) fly the whole time and the whole crazy night was to show Teddy - who was suffering from the loss of his dad - how regain the belief in something himself, and something far bigger. If you're only in it for the cars, the Challenger shines wonderfully. We believe Four Star Motorsports did the prep....and we THINK we have identified the Canadian stunt driver too!

Christmas Dukes Review: S3E9 "The Great Santa Claus Chase"

K&F Show Summary:

Merry Christmas! Were pleased to bring you our favorite review on the only Dukes of Hazzard Christmas episode, S3E9 title the Great Santa Claus Chase. This review originally aired in KF Show #247 in 2022. 

Christmas Dukes Review: Somehow, an episode that has next to no General Lee in it…..is so endearing and charming it must be due to Christmas magic! In this episode they choose to re-enact the Charles Dickens classic A Christmas Carol. This is the tale of "Scrooge Hogg" stealing Christmas trees from Hazzard citizens and the Duke boys and Crazy Cooter stealing them back to deliver them in Santa Claus suits. Not good enough? In a nod to childlike happiness, the three bad guys in the episode also wear Santa Claus suits….meaning there are 6 Santas onscreen at one time. When the bad guys in Santa suits get caught, Cletus calls them "Merry Men!" The Boars Nest is decorated, proving that Christmas decorations at dive bars make them extra cheery. Better yet, there are carols, hot chocolate, and this episode ends on a message of what Christmas is all about; unconditional forgiveness…..topped off by some jingle bells flying overhead by (possibly) a certain jolly old Elf.

Del Griffith is a loud mouth overweight blabber mouth salesman that seemingly loves only to talk people to death, followed by enjoying life as a perpetual slob. But this odd couple gets stuck together, and they have the road trip of a lifetime via planes, trains, buses, and automobiles. Along with way hands are shoved into butts, the F-Bomb is laced together in a way that’ll make your mother cry with tears and your dad cry with laughter, and six different Dodge LeBaron’s give their life to become so famous as the best buddy car of all time that it ended up in Deadpool and and Wolverine. This is an absolutely perfect, quotable, re-watchable, funny, thoughtful, sad, loving, and hilarious movie that we’ll all watch on Thanksgiving until we die. 10 Turkey Rolls!

Legit Movie Car Facts:

-Six custom-painted, green 1986 Dodge 600 convertibles served as comic relief throughout the movie modified with the Lebaron grille, headlights, taillights, and wood siding. . The cars were re-branded as a fictional Gran Detroit, Farm and Country Edition.

-Chrysler wanted no part of any relationship with the car.

-No actual Town & Country convertibles were destroyed during filming because the studio found plain ’86 Dodge 600s and Chrysler LeBarons, painted them green, and then applied the stock wood trim afterward.

-Special “D” hood badges replaced Chrysler ones on convertibles used in the movie.

-It is so famous that it made a cameo in Dealpool vs Wolverine

-The enormous wire wheel covers were a joke.

-The color green was chosen by John Hughes himself to go with the wood siding. The car is a nod to another famous Hughes movie car, the Family Truckster from National Lampoons Vacation.  

-Only one of the cars survived and was repainted a cream color. It was last seen in Los Angeles in 2009.

Roadkill – Finale

As you have heard already the rumors circulating the closing of Motor Trend Productions are all true. Unfortunately the shows housed and produced by Motor Trend are no more. This does include “Roadkill,” its flagship and genre changing show. It’s a bi-product of being owned by a large conglomerate as well as being a niche of a niche of entertainment media. All episodes filmed not yet released will be aired over the winter of 2025/2025 but no further will be created.

We discussed the news of it all and and some point we’ll have Mike Finnegan our friend (and Kibbe and Finnegan show co-founder) on to chat about it. No matter what spin you put on it the reality of Roadkill both creating and changing the automotive space are complexly undeniable. David Frieburger and Mike Finnegan made a team that were the best of the best in automotive tom-foolery entertainment. We loved them too!

David Freiburger has given a good explanation the situation along with what’s next for the full band of Motor Trend characters (visit TheDrive.com for more on that). While none of us know whether Roadkill will ever return on a different platform, it does seem like the sun has set on it and this last piece of legacy automotive media is officially over. In the short term we know that everyone has moved on to YouTube (if they hadn’t already) and we can continue to have them in our lives there!

Thanks, boys. It was magical!

Thanksgiving Movie Review: "Tower Heist"

K&F Movie Summary: Tower Heist is the automotive Thanksgiving movie classic you didn’t know you were missing until now, especially if you’re Corndog! This movie stars a MASSIVE cadre os actors including Ben Stiller, Eddie Murphy, Alan Alda, Casey Afflect, Tea Leoni, Mechael Pena, and Matthew Broderick. This is the tale of a group of not quite as cool as Oceans 11 people that get taken by a Ponzi scheme by Hawkeye from MASH. And then – to get their money back – they steal Steve McQueen’s Ferrari from the top of Trump Tower during the Thanksgiving Parade, all using a handy roof crane. You will laugh, you will squirm, and you will probably be looking up during the Thanksgiving Day Parade from here on out…..so you don’t get squished by a Ferrari made of gold. This movie is a forgotten gem that has everything going for it.

2024 Election Dukes Review Re-Review: S2E11 “The People's Choice”

From Rob: We just got from SEMA 2024....and then Kibbe left again to head to an undisclosed location for an undisclosed reason. Listen in for this episode, direct from a hotel room! Good news: we had the episode. Bad news: with this setup there was no way to have a birthday game and we had to recycle a Dukes review. Bern and CD were (not) crushed. Enjoy!

K&F Show Summary: This is the Dukes of Hazzard episode that shows in America, democracy still works.. until the next episode when democracy will be forgotten, because in Season 2 long-lasting consequences only last exactly one episode. Smoke-show married mom "TC Rodgers" returns to Hazzard to run for county supervisor, a job held by Boss Hogg that has a number of privileges, including being the probation officer for Bo and Luke Duke. Bo and Luke help the smoke-show mom because 1) it’s the right thing to do, 2) they think she’s a smoke show, and 3) they do not know she’s a married mom. In helping her win an election they also commit several FCC violations and perform electronic miracles by communicating via CB radio to people on telephones! And you know in the Blue Brothers with they put a loudspeaker on the Bluesmobile?  Well that bit came from this episode too. Anyway, the Smokeshow wins the election, her husband and kid show up, and in a week we’ll never hear from her again….just like most political candidates that promised you everything before Nov 5, 2024.

Classic Dukes Re-Review: S3E3 “The Hazzardville Horror”

K&F Show Summary: This is the second season in a row to feature a Halloween episode themed show. Unlike the last one that featured a scary self-driving and glowing General Lee as a "spook talkin' medium," this one features a haunted house straight out of Disneyland. A beautiful woman returns home to Hazzard to collect her inheritance, a mansion and it's full collection of antiques, only to learn that it’s haunted. But it’s not REALLY haunted, it’s just full of what we would call today as unwelcome, unsigned, unpaying tenants. They are made up of a father-and-son-bad-guy-team who use the basement as a place to smelt stolen silver into silver bars. The Dukes figure it out, stop the bad guys, and this time LUKE gets the girl. Top that off with an unbelievably funny performance by Boss, Rosco and Cleetus that uses phrases like "doo-dads", "gee-gaws", and "Hogglooms" to describe precious collectibles and you get one outstanding Halloween episode.

Car Movie Review: 2004’s “Starsky & Hutch” Feature Film

K&F Movie Summary: If you combined Old School, Wedding Crashers, Anchorman, and the Hangover with a former Dukes of Hazzard stunt driver, you’d get this; an unbelievably funny remake with great car action, great music, and likely a pure hatred from original fans of the show!

Ben Stiller and Owen Wilson play Detectives David Starsky and Ken Hutchison in the 2004 Hollywood remake of Starsky and Hutch. They chase bad-buy-drug-lord Vince Vaughn across fictional Bay City in a hopped up '76 Gran Torino, painted Dodge Viper red with a beefed up small block Ford under the good. They get in a dance off, are accosted by Will Ferrell into acting like naked dragon riders, shoot a pony and a Karmann Ghia, all just to get to the bottom of the mysterious untraceable cocaine deal that Jason Bateman (Vaughn’s henchman) is making happen.

This movie is full of one liners, good cars, and a version of Huggy Bear played by Snoop Dogg that’ll give you faith in the underworld. But best of all, it ends in a car chase littered with jumps across a golf course and (almost) landed on a yacht.

Classic Dukes Re-Review: S3E7 “Baa Baa White Sheep”

K&F Show Summary: Since we are just a few weeks from the 2024 Presidential election I thought we’d focus on the most presidential episode of the Dukes ever.  This is the one with Abe Lincoln of the United States of America and Jefferson Davis of the Confederate States of America. Of course both are the twin brothers Hogg, the good guy dresses in black and the bad guy dresses in white, and both are played by Sorrell Booke, sometimes who is the same character faking being the other character. The same Cadillac plays both roles too, black and white just like the relative suits. And just like we've seen before and will see again, Abe Lincoln Hogg is a character that we've never seen before and never will again, but I’m here to tell you that this episode is one of the golden age of television. It's an age when characters were explained away in half a sentence, the Bible was put in a good light but still taken completely wrong and out of context, and high heels are swapped out for sneakers for jiggling running scenes that end in on screen lady mud wresting. This pre-dates the Ronald Regan presidency and reality in plots, and we may be dumber for watching it. But it’s silly, and fun, and childish, and wonderful. 9 Dogs.

Classic Dukes Re-Review: S7E17
"Opening Night at the Boars' Nest"

Note: This Dukes review is a rebroadcast from Episode 236 of the Kibbe and Friends Show. 

K&F Show Summary: I (Kibbe) was in 5th grade when this episode originally aired. I sadly didn’t understand it all coming to an end at that time as a kid, and now as a near 50 year old adult it seems just as hard but yet totally for different reasons. For the last six and a half years we have made a show about a show, and I for one have loved it! Anyway, enough with the sappiness. This is the final episode of the Dukes, John Schneider finally gets to write and direct something…..my High School Nova reappears one last time….and the General Lee actually gets hurt – from, a jump! The stunts are grossly limited as you’d expect from a cancelled show, but nonetheless the plot must go on. So…here’s the plot: there’s a Hazzard County talent show at the Boar’s Nest and Rosco has a magician’s act that supposedly makes Boss disappear. But when Boss actually gets kidnapped the Dukes must rescue him from two stone cold killers….so that Boss can get back in time to rescue Roscoe’s broken heart.

At long last the KF Show gang - each and every last one of us - hit the road for Bowling Green Kentucky. "Kibbe Lee" the General Lee came too! There we conducted two days of interview interviews from the field, but featured the best for last with Catherine Bach herself! We were lucky enough to get an entire sit down with her, in fact. Thanks to Kevin Shaw at MOPAR Connection Magazine and Jason and Eddy at Auto Metal Direct we were able to secure a full location from which to create a mobile studio. Catherine signed autographs for fans for an hour and then sat down with us for at least another 30 minutes!

Along the way we had several fun guest on the show including Jimi Day from FM3 Performance Marketing (the company behind MOPARTY), Cody Young (@CodyCrafted ), Garrett Daniels (RnDFabworks.com), Nathan Warren (@warren_customs_llc ), Corndog, Bernie, TMCP Show writer Scott Staff, and myself. We did it all too including the Drag Racing, Autocross, Swap meet and the amazing show cars. We got so much content that we put it into two shows, in fact! Listen in to TMCP #587 to hear a fascinating interview Raymond Kohn from the Northeast Ohio Dukes, YouTuber Dylan McCool, and Blake Andermann of Sublime Technologies (super cool DIY Gen 3 Hemi swap kits).

Best of all though, the KF Patreon show fans turned out and we had a fantastic time hanging out together, laughing, and generally enjoying the fact that for at least 2 days...none of us had any real problems to deal with. And bacon. We ate a lot of bacon too.

Only 365 Days until Next Year!

Corndog's Pick - Dukes Review: S1E2
"Daisy's Song"

Note: This Dukes episode was originally reviewed by Rob Kibbe and Mike Finnegan in Episode 277 of The MuscleCar Place. It was part of the "DukesCast" segment...and predates the Kibbe and Friends show entirely! This episodes is THE episode with every last detail on the Daisy Roadrunner that Corndog is creating his replica of! His car will be at MOPARTY 2024 for Catherine Bach's use! 

K&F Show Summary: In this second ever episode of the Dukes of Hazzard we learn that Daisy Duke is an aspiring songstress. She spends her own money to have a song published, it is, and it is then recorded professionally but a real country singer.,......all so that we get to watch her show up in a 70’s one piece that is definitely still in fashion. Bo and Luke trick the bad guys into thinking Daisy can be an "AI" impersonator of real singers so they can then sell the now fake records for real money. And it turns out that the bad guys are really run by Boss Hogg, which is honeying up to women and trying to get in cahoots with - effectively - the mob! This may be the weirdest, coolest, and most true-to-it's creator (Gy Waldron) episode ever…..and it has the full details on the Daisy RoadRunner that our man Corndog is preparing this very second.

Back To School Movie Review
"Ferris Bueller's Day Off"

Note: This Dukes review is a rebroadcast from Episode 228 of the Kibbe and Friends Show. With summer ending and kids heading back to school, this was the closest "school" car thing we could think of. Plus....Emily Kibbe is headed off to her first year of college and Dad Kibbe needed an extra 10 minutes to cry. Enjoy!

K&F Show Summary with Special Guest, Ryan Brutt:

Ferris Bueller's Day off is the tale of one high school hero who truly had it all; looks, brains, money, friends, a smokin' hot girlfriend, popularity, style, and panache. However, despite all of that he still lacked the two things that he needed most....a day off, and a car! This is the tale of Ferris Bueller, the 4th wall breaking, Ferrari stealing, John Hughes immortal movie hit of 1986. Like nearly every other John Hughes tale the setting of the story was the Chicago suburbs!

The Ferrari in the film is supposed to be a 1961 Ferrari 250 GT California. The insert shots of emblems and wheels really are of the genuine article, but absolutely everything else was a faker-oo Modena Spyder replica (three of them, actually). Ferrari was none too happy with this movie and sued Modena out of business. Most reports show that the Ford powered replicas were ham-fisted together, ran poorly, and broke down often. In fact our man Ryan Brutt (The Auto Archaeologist) joined in to share the tales of the man that keep the fake Ferrari's running during the movie filming; his dad!

Corndog's Pick - Dukes Review: S1E9
"Limo One is Missing"

Note: This Dukes review is a rebroadcast from Episode 271 of the Kibbe and Friends Show. It has a bunch of great details on the Daisy Roadrunner that Corndog is creating his replica of! His car will be at MOPARTY 2024 for Catherine Bach's use! The entire first half of this new episode details it heavily.

K&F Show Summary: Finally - the political Dukes episode we’ve been waiting for! Kinda. If there was an episode that could combine Nathan Warren with Ben Jones portraying Cooter, this would be it. Cooter - with God’s blessed skills - steals President Jimmy Carter’s car.Bo and Luke get him out of it, but not before using their smoking hot cousin to position herself as a faux-prostitute to distract the bad guys. Who are the bad guys in this one you ask? Boss Hogg - who has a car theft and chop shop ring. And Boss thinks his guys stole the car and wants it recovered to meet Jimmy Carter personally, but in the end it’s Uncle Jesse that gets the call of thanks from the Oval Office. And before the episode is over we will once and for all know whether Boss and Uncle Jesse are Republicans or Democrats. The 2024 Presidential race had nothing on this!

Classic Dukes Review: S2E14
"The Runaway"

K&F Show Summary:

Another classic Dukes review, and another reminder that in the glory years of the Dukes….all female guest stars ended up in a crop top and cut off shorts at some point. This classic episode documents the tale or a rich girl in love with a poor farm boy, and an egotistical wealthy father that wants to stand between them. Why? Because rich people - are evil - especially in a comic TV series. (As a side note, the evil rich father is played by Alan Alda's father!) The Dukes help the girl out to marry her farm boy Fred, thanks to the Joe Dirt bridge, and in the process of it all end up killing Daisy’s 74 Road Runner…which by this point’s isn’t actually a '74 Road Runner at all. It’s replaced by a brand new product placement white Jeep Renegade named Dixie. This is a fantastic episode for stunts, shoddy hiding of car effects, sped up and slowed down car chase footage, and again - unrequited T&A. 9 Corndogs!

Classic Dukes Review: S4E2
"Double Dukes"

In the universe of most important episodes of the most important TV shows of all time, this one is at the top. The Dukes of Hazzard go where many have gone before by using the same actors to play dual roles of themselves…..but this time we get to see the real General Lee vs it’s duplicate while being gloriously directed by Paul Baxley. The plot is terrible, there are editing mistakes a plenty, but General fighting General will leave you ready to fight anyone, anywhere, and anytime! Boss Hogg hires two bad guys - played by one decent actor and one terrible one - to double Bo and Luke, then rob a bank in broad daylight in full of witnesses. The goal - get ride of the Dukes for all. It doesn’t work, we get shots of the General inside that are so great, and multiple jumps worth singing for. I can’t believe we haven’t redone this one already. This is in my Top 10 - maybe Top 5 - of all Dukes of Hazzard Episodes ever. 10 Corndogs!

Car Movie Review: Michael Keaton's "Gung Ho"

Well, you know it would happen sometime. We finally reviewed the car movie starring Michael Keaton and Long Duck Dong, and it’s glorious! A fictional Japanese Automotive company decided to expand production into the US in the mid 1980’s…..a lot like the actual companies really did.  And the Japanese have a wholly different work ethic than do regular old Union US Auto Workers.  And that’s true - or was back then. And a well intentioned but perpetually lucky Union Leader talks them into saving an abandoned US automotive plant that was the center of their town. The Japanese agreed, but only if the plant could be run with kaizen; a process of continuous improvement and dedication to work above all else.  So….that didn’t work at all.  But in the end, to save the plant, and save the town, the Japanese and the Americans work together to make something great….and by that, I mean the effort, not the cars.  8 Corndogs!

Classic Dukes Review: S2E1
"Days of Shine and Roses"
When NHRA Top Fuel superstar Clay Millican says, this is the episode of the Dukes I want to review….you say, "how high!" And then you say, "Yessir!" This classic Dukes of Hazzard episode features the finest early era of the Dukes - with Boss and Jesse trying to prove once and for all who is the best moonshine driver. And that means racing a '68 Camaro against a '68 Mustang, both loaded with moonshine cargo, through the territory of the evil Sheriff Spike Loomis - and back - without getting caught. Along the way we get classic Hollywood western bar flies, Catherine Bach at her most stunning, Disney Ranch at it’s most classic, and bootlegger turns that’ll rip your leaf spring out. 10 Perfect Corndogs!

Classic Dukes Review: S2E23
"Southern Comfurts"
K&F Dukes Summary: All that you need to know about this episode is two things. First, we are going to get to the bottom of what a second cousin twice removed is, because on the Dukes in Season 2 that seems to be the clear sailing point for everyone wanting to hook up with everyone. Second, this is the episode with the green General Lee in it. And after a deep drive on this episode I think we can all conclude that the only reason the General is green in this episode is……(insert made up reason here). Anyway, the dukes 2nd cousins get rich and sell their land for a fortune, thanks for Jesse’s shrewd negotiating. To thank him they bring presents to Hazzard before starting on their way to a new life. In the midst though, the money gets stolen and the General lee gets painted green. Kinda dumb, yet kinda fantastic. The end.

Forever Young

K&F Movie Summary from Episode 145: This is a full review of the 1992 Mel Gibson movie, Forever Young. This is the one where Mel is a test pilot in 1939, gets cryogenically frozen for a year to avoid the pain watching his girlfriend die in a hospital slowly, and then waked up over 50 years later to find out he was abandoned by everyone he knew and loved. Only he wasn't.....and if you love history, romance, flying, and Chargers you'll absolutely love this movie. The audio alone is with your time. Yes....we believe the last "Sound Stage" General Lee is the car in this movie, and yes, that's the primary reason we reviewed it. However, this movie gets a Perfect 10 from ALL OF US for just being a great, fun, enjoyable story to watch and enjoy!

OK....with that said, the deep dive on the Chargers in this film is somewhat exhaustive and definitely sickening. We can absolutely say FOR SURE that there were two Generals used in the movie, as documented in the episode. Remember, Warner Brothers kept the "Sound-Stage" car as well as one Hero car.  The Sound Stage car was a '68 Charger faked to look like a '69 (grille and taillight changes), and the Hero car was a '69. We feel pretty certain that the '68 was used for the bulk of the movie....except for two interior scenes.

Remember these words: DOME LIGHT.

K&F Movie Summary - SPOILERS AHEAD:

We saw it! Ryan Gosling plays the Fall Guy in the big screen movie. Any of our fears about this ruining a beloved TV tale about stunts and jump trucks were wrong! The movie is great and while it might be a one and done it could certainly feature sequels too! Gosling plays the Colt Seavers, a Hollywood stunt man that ends up having to solve a mystery, while jumping trucks and doing stunts. Sound familiar?

Colt ends up being nearly killed during the opening movie-within-a-movie stunt (that Gosling really did) due to sabotage by the jealous star that he’s doubling. It breaks his confidence and takes him away from the career (and woman) that he loves. But, when Jody the camera girl becomes Jody the director of the biggest baddest stunt movie ever to be made….he comes out of retirement to get it done. And save the relationship. And solve the mystery of the leading man that was dead…..or was he? In it are thrown in intentional meta references, sound effects and songs that will make your hears sing, aliens that make you laugh, all leading to the good guy winning in the end with the help of the girl….and a brown and gold GMC truck.

Get to the theater NOW to see it on the real big screen. You'll probably need to go twice.

K&F Show Summary: This time we're all in for something different. In light of the upcoming "The Fall Guy" movie releasing on May 3, 2024 we decided to do a deep dive on the original TV series and  a preview of the new movie. Even better, we were joined by our own Nathan Warren of Warren Customs as the guest co-host. We don't know anyone that loves Fall Guy trucks (and the TV series) more than Nathan. He even once stated that "it's like the Dukes of Hazzard, only better."

The Movie:

Our spies in Australia have already seen the movie and sure us that its good, and Ryan Gosling and Emily Blunt's promotions have been fantastic to watch!

An original (replica) style Fall Guy truck appears in the movie, but the "new" GMC Sierra 1500 appears as the modern day equivalent. It looks to be an entertaining movie, and FINALLY one that will highlight the stunt performers that have always been hidden in the shadows in any Hollywood production.

Stuntman Logan Holladay performed an 8.5 barrel-roll stunt for the movie that set a world record in doing it!

Even better, Ryan Gosling and SNL's Mikey Day promoted the movie by dressing up as Beavis and Butthead and standing in front of the 2024 Fall Guy Truck.

Season 3 - Episode 3 “Trauma”

Fall Guy Show Summary:

Colt Seavers (Lee Majors) hunts down a bad guy who has stolen a town’s treasurers and hides the bad guy from the screaming townsfolk in the secret stash compartment of the truck. Unbeknownst to Colt (but knownst to us) the bad guy hides the key to the town’s treasurers in the trucks’ afore mentioned secret compartment.  That way when he got away later….he could just shoot the driver of the truck (Colt) and get his key back. Easy Peasy. Unfortunately, Colt’s nephew Howie (Douglas Barr) was driving the truck on two wheels with the shows' blonde Daisy Duke equivalent (Jody, played by Heather Thomas). She survived but the nephew was nearly killed, leaving Colt and Heather Thomas right the wrongs.  Hijinks ensue, the catch the bad guy, we see one of the train derailed Knight Rider cars painted white, two more stunt trucks, and lots a jumps. Pretty tidy episode. 9 Nathan Warren Sasquatches.

K&F Show Summary: For your listening pleasure (and for absolutely no other reason) in liuue of a move of TV vehicle review we present to you something a little different. This is our full breakdown of every classic Dominic Toretto driven '68-'70 Charger from the Fast and Furious movie franchise, from the beginning in 2001 to current day (April 2024 as of this recording).

As you know, the series that started in 2001 with a bunch of VCR thief stealing family members has become a 20+ year action franchise. Dominic Toretto (as portrayed by Vin Diesel) has been the lead character nearly everyone one of them, and Dom has a thing for MOPARS. Beyond that though, he has a SERIOUS thing for '68-'70 Chargers (with the '70 being the primary).

We don't claim to be as solid with the F&F franchise as we are the Dukes of Hazzard, but we did our best. At worst we spend an absolutely ridiculous amount of time discussing ridiculous franchise doing ridiculous things with flying Dodge Charger. Basically, it was perfect for us.

Enjoy!

K&F Movie Summary:

Two mismatched buddy cops, who work for their TLC line quoting Captain (Michael Keaton) take down a ponzie scheme the likes we haven’t seen since Bernie Madoff. Will Ferrell plays an accountant - but a former college pimp. Mark Walberg might be playing himself from the Departed - but as a spoof and a ballet dancer.  In the process the movie takes every stereotype of every buddy cop movie - funny or serious - and makes fun of it all, including the two most macho of detectives (Samuel L. Jackson and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson). But of course we’re all here for the cars, and in this case the hero car that is the biggest punchline of all; a 2006 Toyota Prius. It saves the day, survives a hobo attack, and drifts through NYC all set to a killer soundtrack and subtle humor that’ll make you cry. 10 Cony Island Hot Dogs!

The All American Girls is the American dream in this one……and just in case Nathan Warren is listening, Cooter’s '68 Chevelle race car shows up again! Paul Baxley direct this episode as well, and that means camera shots of Bo slinging the General that'll leave you smiling all day long too! 9 dogs.

K&F Show Summary:

In this episode we did something we rarely do; bring on a guest! In honor of the Daytona 500 we usually review the movie Days of Thunder....because, it's awesome arguably the greatest racing movie ever made. However as most of you know, recently several Days of Thunder movie cars were doug out of the woods by a man named Joe Jackson. We were lucky enough to have Joe on the show to tell us the story of finding not one, not two, but three different cars!

Listen in and enjoy!

K&F Show Summary:

Note: In honor of Valentine's Day 2024 we gave Bernie the keys to the show and told him to make a re-run episode! Listen in for a rundown of whatever Valentine's Day stuff that Bern came up with....which is probably super duper weird, but kind of adorable too. Following that is a re-broadcast of our review of "Cleetus Falls in Love" from KF Episode 252. Godspeed. -Kibbe and Corndog 

Poor Cleetus makes the mistake of being #MeToo’d by Daisy Dukes, and his heart has to pay the price until she finally confesses to using her sexuality for personal gain. Poor Cleetus. But, love know no boundaries - and just like Cleetus we all have to take the high road and go on to date a bank teller anyway. This episode features Sheriff Little and is the second episode after the shift to the wide push bar General Lee. Also noted in this episode, no-one suffered from food poisoning and was stricken with vomiting and diarrhea for 4 hours straight.

K&F Show Summary:

K&F Show Summary: 49 year old Joe Pesci and 28 year old Marisa Tomei go to Alabama to defend a kid who accidentally stole a can of tune, then got charged with murder. This is the comedic story of the smart underachieving lawyer, his wicked-smart girlfriend, and his dippy younger cousin. It's the take of New Yorkers that magically drive rust free 30-year old cars from state to state, looking for adventure and bringing justice to the masses.  all drive 30 year old rust free cars from New York, cross country, and make justice possible for the masses. Did I mention that the cousin is Karate Kid himself, Joe Maccio? And even better, this whole comedic genius movie is centered around the reality of the fact that a locking rear end is waaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than a one wheel wonder, but only if your smoke-show girlfriend teaches you that first. This one got Marisa Tomei an OSCAR and taught us all that no self respecting southerner eats instant grits. It may be Joe Pesci's most likable character role ever and we'll never get sick of listening to Marisa Tomei explain torque wrenches, posi-traction, and the stock ignition timing of a 327 Chevy.

K&F Show Summary:

January 2024 marks the 45th anniversary of the Dukes of Hazzard. "One Armed Bandits" is the first episode that started it all, and one of the 5 filmed on location in Georgia before it would be relocated to California for the remainder of the series. For purists, the first 5 episodes (and this in particular) is as good, gritty, and as pure as it gets. For me... it's just that weird one they would show in re-runs that was so different than all of the "real" ones from the later seasons I was used to. (I like campy Hollywood-ized versions of stuff.)

Anyway, this is the episode where Bo and Luke play Robin Hood - and commit a criminal act against a criminal (Boss Hogg) - to give to the poor. This proves the statement that two wrongs can make a right, apparently. Bo and Luke meet with Cooter in the Starsky and Hutch Torino along with Blake Lively’s dad, burglarize a truck filled with slot machines, place them around town, give the proceeds to the poor, and give the credit to Rosco, helping him get re-elected. Most of the scenes from the opening credit for the run of the show come from this episode and we get to settle once and for all which General Lee of the 3 used in this episode….really came first.

K&F Show Summary: 

This is the Dukes of Hazzard episode that shows in America, democracy still works.. until the next episode when democracy will be forgotten, because in Season 2 long-lasting consequences only last exactly one episode. Smoke-show married mom "TC Rodgers" returns to Hazzard to run for county supervisor, a job held by Boss Hogg that has a number of privileges, including being the probation officer for Bo and Luke Duke. Bo and Luke help the smoke-show mom because 1) it’s the right thing to do, 2) they think she’s a smoke show, and 3) they do not know she’s a married mom. In helping her win an election they also commit several FCC violations and perform electronic miracles by communicating via CB radio to people on telephones! And you know in the Blue Brothers with they put a loudspeaker on the Bluesmobile?  Well that bit came from this episode too. Anyway, the Smokeshow wins the election, her husband and kid show up, and in a week we’ll never hear from her again….just like the Iowa caucus as of today. See you in 4 years, losers.

========================================

K&F Show Summary: We are back for 2024! Unfortunately, the first show of the year for us will kick off with a memorial tribute to the late great Cale Yarborough. Cale passed away on Dec 31, 2023. He was an ironman in NASCAR certainly, but many of us met him initially due to his guest starring roles during Season 2 and Season 7 of the Dukes of Hazzard.

Instead of re-reviewing both of these episodes we decided to dedicate this episode to telling the life story of Cale himself. (Full links to both of his episodes are below, and we encourage you to listen to them as well.)

There  will be facts here that some of you may know, but many of us didn’t. He was the first ever three-in-a-row NASCAR champion, a record only met (and then broken) by Jimmie Johnson. He won four Daytona 500’s, inclyding two back to back in 1983 and 1984. He pioneered CBS-TV’s use of the John Porter-Peter Larson in-car camera that could tilt and pan, footage of which was used in the Season 7 episode he appeared on during the Dukes.

He won the 1983 Daytona 500 in a backup car from a Hardees fast-good restaurant….after flipping his new-for-1983 Monte Carlo in qualifying at 204MPH. He taught himself how to fly an airplane. Possibly most famously, during the first ever flag-to-flag showing of the Daytona 500 on TV, he and the Bobby Allison got in a terrible fight after Cale and Donnie Allison (Bobby’s brother) wrecked for the win on the last lap.

RIP Cale.

K&F Movie Summary: Christmas Vacation

The last real family man Clark Griswold himself takes on Christmas. When I saw this movie in the theater in 1989 I was the age of Rusty. Now, I’m the age of Clark. I can relate to Clark….I love the lights, I underestimate a lot of things, and like Clark I just want to give my family the perfect Christmas. This movie spawns from the writing genius of John Hughes and the comedic delivery of Chevy Chase and Randy Quaid. Not only does it have the famous scene with the RV dumping into the street sewer, but it has all of the scenes that you can't help but watch over and over again! Clark drives under a log truck, then gives a speech in the mall about logs that’ll leave you not seeing the line, his idiot cousin in law shows up to annoy him to death, but that huge beastly bulging man ends up bringing him the gift that Clark really needed - his Christmas bonus, and perspective on what really matters. This one is a mele kaliki mai of a good one and short of having the Baby Jesus in a manger, it has everything else I love about Christmas.

K&F Movie Summary:

Two kids who have lost their dad to tragedy are on the very edge of tragedy themselves…the tragedy of not believing! Teddy the older brother is turning to crime, and Katy the younger sister is innocent. They catch Santa in the act at their house, jump in his sleigh, scare the bejesus out of him, lose the reindeer and the presents, crash the sleigh, steal a red 2009 Dodge Challenger, jump it, end up in jail, then a chop shop, and then have to get it all back together by Christmas morning or the world explodes. Even worse, during the chaos they also lost Santa’s magic hat, which is the think that makes the sleigh fly! At the end though they make it just in time to Save Christmas and Santa finally reveals (in the coolest of Kurt Russell moves) that the hat was a ruse. As Santa Claus himself could (of course) fly the whole time and the whole crazy night was to show Teddy - who was suffering from the loss of his dad - how regain the belief in something himself, and something far bigger. If you're only in it for the cars, the Challenger shines wonderfully. We believe Four Star Motorsports did the prep....and we THINK we have identified the Canadian stunt driver too!

K&F Show Summary:

A Christmas Story Review: If there was one movie to review that best summed up the mind of kid-dom at Christmas it definitely has to be A Christmas Story! The tale of Ralphie Parker and his desire for a Red Ryder BB gun is ingrained in Americana, thanks in part to the 24-hour marathon on the Turner Broadcast networks beginning in the late 1990's. It's set in the late 1930's and is laid over with Jean Shephard's voice telling the tale of his youth. From fighting bullies with green teeth, to being tricked into radio commercials for Ovaltine, to his old man's desire for a MAJOR AWARD, this movie has it all and never gets old. There are even old cars, a tongue stuck to a frozen pole, and a duck that gets his head cut off.  PERFECT 10 LITTLE DEBBIE CHRISTMAS TREE RATING.

A Christmas Story Christmas Review: Remember when I told you in the original Christmas Story Review that the whole movie was a love letter to his dad? I was right! Ralphie is an adult now with a wife and kids of his own, and he has to deal with the passing of his Old Man at Christmas while simultaneously dealing with his own career midlife crisis. There are bar flies that will amuse you, a mom that hides from the scourge of the earth (known as carolers). Thanks to his wife and his mom Ralhie gets the win, teaches his kids how to stand up to bullies, and has a few beers with his life long friends. And fixes a Plymouth radiator with a half dozen eggs. This masterpiece is going to rival - for some - the best movie of 2022. Watch out Top Gun Maverick, and screw the crappy review that the New York Times gave. This is a classic for the rest of time! PERFECT 10 LITTLE DEBBIE CHRISTMAS TREE RATING.

K&F Show Summary: 

Note: this is a rebroadcast of our Cannonball Run 2 review from KF Episode 250. Enjoy!

To commemorate our 250th episode we bring you Cannonball Run 2. By today’s standards it’s crass, racist, sexist, and a hilariously offensive automotive escape from reality. Back then though, it just was a crass yet hilarious automotive escape from reality. It stars everyone fun and funny from 1984 as you would expect from Burt Reynolds to Don Knotts to Frank Sinatra. If you liked the first Cannonball Run you’ll love this one….because it’s the same movie. Again. The Rigatoni's and Fettuccine are in the mob, people pretending to be sheiks only because they have big noses, and John Schneider’s personal Lamborghini Countach makes an appearance with Catherine Bach! The cars are as big as the stars and they do what cars do best: slide and fly. This movie was hated by Siskel and Ebert because they hated movies that don’t make you think. But we don’t need to think. We never did. 10-Stars.

K&F Show Summary: 

Happy Hazzard-o-ween! This isn’t a specifically dedicated Halloween episode….but it may as well be. Whilst Bo and Luke are hiding from Rosco they get naked and go skinny dipping…leaving their clothes in the General Lee. Seconds later the General is stolen by two crooked gamblers who jump the car (and the clothes) in the pond. Rosco and Enos assume it was Bo and Luke all along, find their clothes, assume they were dismembered, and hijinks ensue when Boss frames them for theft of ....something. Doesn’t matter what. Anyway, to clear themselves they pretend to still be dead and trick Rosco into believing their spirits inhabit the General Lee, which now glows in the dark and appears to drive by itself. Wrongs are righted and it’s nice, funand spooky Halloween episode all around.

He's a nice enough guy of course, but at this point he's trying to help every kid on the planet while simultaneously not having to pay gift tax to the Feds on all of it.

This is a special edition K&F Show! Kibbe was gone with some "unexplained commitments", so Corndog put Bernie in charge to get an episode recorded and out the door. Then he gave Bern the company AMEX card and send him to the strip (the NHRA strip, not the other one. It was there that our man Bernie was able to get Clay Millican on the show, live an in person at the Dallas NHRA event!

That's the good news. The bad news is that Bern gave Clay a K&F sticker for his helmet. Minutes later Clay's engine exploded. The direct correlation is hart do miss......so sorry Clay, Bernie's "signature touch" is something we can't control either. It happens.

Listen in and enjoy. See you all on Patreon next week!

K&F Show Summary: 

K&F Show Summary: This mid-month episode features a "re-run" of our movie review of Cannonball Run from Episode 85 of the Kibbe and Finnegan Show. Call us lazy, but it's comedy gold. It also kept us from working too hard this week. Or at all. Enjoy. 

This show features our review of the movie Cannonball Run, but it’s really more of a tribute to the late great Burt Reynolds who passed away a few years ago. We loved Burt’s crazy car movies and Cannonball Run was as zany as it ever got. The premise and screen play were a credit to automotive journalist Brock Yates (who makes a cameo in this movie), and then Burt, Dom DeLuise, and Hal Needham took of from there. Alter ego superheroes, cross-eyed proctologists, inappropriate humor (by today’s standards) and ambulances with straight headers are all you need to know. Thanks for the fun, Burt!

K&F Show Summary: 

Bo and Luke get conned - accidentally - by Cooter - into driving for a bad guy that’s being watched by the stage police, and possibly the feds. What’s he being watched for you ask? Human trafficking? Meth manufacturing and distribution? Ponzi schemes designed to keep little old ladies out of the old folks home and living in the gutter? No….none of those….he’s doing something far worse. This piece of human scum…..is selling…..stolen racing engines! He hides these sweet engines in demo derby cars to transport them out of the county and state, which keeps the feds easily at bay.

Bo and Luke get accused of being a part of it….and they have to drive demo derby cars as a result. And we dear viewers get treated to the sloppy General lee preparation that we love most in this early seasons, including the General Lee I love most - the one they pull up in the race track in. Paul Baxley brings in outstanding camera shots and jumps that would win him an Oscar today, and all is right with the world. 14-inch vectors for everyone!

We came, we saw, we Mopartied! This event has become THE place for Mopar wackos with gather and enjoy all of the weirdness and greatness that Mopars bring. Its also a great place for people that love to thrash their cars on the dragstrip and autocross! We had a great time seeing and hanging out with listeners, as always. The only bummer of the whole trip is that it wasn't long enough! We will feature several key interviews from the event on this week's episode of The MuscleCar Place podcast.

This episode also features the one and only Tony Angelo. We all have known Tony's escapades through his time with Motor Trend with Lucky Costa on Hot Rod Garage, and today he makes his living on his YouTube channel "StayTuned," which you should subscribe to yesterday if you haven't already.

He did make the event in his Dodge 440.....barely....and we were there to catch up and see what happened. We also learned from Tony just how badly Finnegan took the news when Corndog let him go from the podcast. No we feel worse. (Kibbe does. Corndog doesn't. Bernie is indifferent, but happy to still not have to wear pants.)

The post K&F Show #273: MOPARTY 2023 – Tony Angelo’s Flying 440! first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

BIG NEWS: MOPARTY is next week. We'll be there and you should be too! Unfortunately, as announced in this show, due to no fault of James Smith there will no long be a General Lee jump or stunt show at the event. All other activities are on as planned, however.

https://moparty.com. We will see you there!

The Dukes of Hazzard - at the absolute height of it’s popularity and power bring us a double length episode featuring a plethora of terribly painted General Lee’s, a seriously annoying manipulative woman, Dukes fighting Dukes, and a lesson on parenting only Uncle Jesse could give. The Dukes go see a Joe Chitwood stunt show. (It’s not called that in the show directly for marketing reasons, but that’s what it is.) The show is run by it’s second generation owner Diane, a woman who will cuddle up to any man who be be her star attraction driver. When the most recent guy nearly gets killed she suckers Bo into being the next man in. Luke sees through it, Bo gets hot headed and punches everyone in the way, and Uncle Jesse is left to guide a situation he cannot stop, but must direct before his family explodes. Boss and the lead carnival guy both try to kill the General Lee in the process and fail, but the General does what he does best; gives his boys a fighting chance to win the day…and they do by making the 32 car jump.

K&F Show Summary: Finally - the political Dukes episode we’ve been waiting for! Kinda. If there was an episode that could combine Nathan Warren with Ben Jones portraying Cooter, this would be it. Cooter - with God’s blessed skills - steals President Jimmy Carter’s car.Bo and Luke get him out of it, but not before using their smoking hot cousin to position herself as a faux-prostitute to distract the bad guys. Who are the bad guys in this one you ask? Boss Hogg - who has a car theft and chop shop ring. And Boss thinks his guys stole the car and wants it recovered to meet Jimmy Carter personally, but in the end it’s Uncle Jesse that gets the call of thanks from the Oval Office. And before the episode is over we will once and for all know whether Boss and Uncle Jesse are Republicans or Democrats. The 2024 Presidential race had nothing on this!

BIGGER NEWS: the all new 5-wire hookup Sniper 2.0 EFI is here and yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus! The list of upgraded features is extensive, but long story short this is about to make something that was revolutionary even easier. Like the original Sniper it's designed to work with a myriad of ignition and transmission options from basic points to fill timing control with transmission kickdown provision. It even has an integration for a PDM (Power Data Module), a feature that'll make your life a magical wonderland when you have multiple components that all need a clean 12V power source and access to switched power.

K&F Show Summary: This one is a WINNER! You can summarize this episode with this: “Come on General, Get it Up!” The Dukes, Rosco, Daisy, Uncle Jesse, a substitute Cooter, a grandmother, and a random Playboy Playmate of the month all work together to keep Boss Hogg from being murdered. The bad guys get some engraving plates - made by starving artist Granny Annie - so that they can counterfeit $5 bills. Granny accidentally pays Bo and Luke with phony money, they get busted for it, Boss Hogg gets the plates from Granny, Bo and Luke steal them back, they save his life, the end.

Also in this episode....some wicked door impacts on the General Lee and the record setting 230-foot long Oxnard train jump by Al Wyatt. If that’s not enough, the episode begins - yes - BEGINS with the Oak Ridge Boys doing some lip syncing like lips have never been synced before. And then James Best puts on an acting clinic that leaves the show telling the moral if always helping a friend in need, not matter what they’ve done to you. Put it all together and you have a tidy little episode.

K&F Show Summary: Friends, for a lot of you this one has been a long time coming. This is our review of the Andy Samberg movie "Hot Rod." It's the tale of Rod, a young Evil Knievel wanna be stuntman, who makes his quest in life to do killer stunts to earn enough money to pay for his step father's heart transplant. And that....is about as serious as it gets. Rod cannot grow a mustache, so he uses a fake one during his stunts. To quell his anger, he does gymnastics in the forest until he falls down the side of a mountain for about 2 minutes. His loser buddies build his ramps and light his fireworks. If there's a school bus to jump, he's your man. He won't make it, but he's your man anyway. It's stupid, slapstick, musical, and pure comedic genius in every way. 10 Corndogs from all of us!

Note: This movie review originally aired in Episode 99 of the Kibbe and Friends Show! 

K&F Show Summary: In the mind of Corndog, this movie is the ’69 Charger movie of movies. I think he’d even rather have a DMCL (screen used) Charger than a screen used General Lee. He’s crazy, because this super weird 1974 box office smash starring Peter Fonda is a whacked-out example of what happens when directors and actors all use drugs while making a movie. The only redeeming thing is the stunts and the Charger. Al Wyatt, Jr is in it though, so maybe this is where he and the Charger first melded together to form the most dynamic duo ever on automotive cinematic history. Watch it for the car stunts and the helicopter flying and skip the rest. (Editor’s Note: Kibbe is the only one of the three of us that feel this way, but since he’s the guy that types this stuff up his opinion is what counts the most, apparently.)

KF Show Summary: If there were ever an episode where I learned the love of a good car, it was this! Luke gets hypnotized into selling the General Lee so that Boss can have it demolished (i.e. murdered) and out of his life, once and for all. And as the smartest and best shot Duke boy….he does what no one else could do; not Boss, Rosco, Uncle Jesse, the President of the United States, or even Bo…..he gets rid of the General. And by doing so unknowingly sentences the General to death. And when it looks like the General is indeed doomed, Cooter without hesitation gambles his life to get the General back - and wins. And then Luke comes to his senses. And then he without hesitation gambles his life to save the General. And wins. All to save the life of a car….that as we know is just an inanimate object, but for some reason seems as alive to us as our dog. We’ve all had a car or a truck that we knew we loved and that loved us back. This episode sends that home.This is also the episode that we see the new look of the General that will last until the show ends. 10 Dogs.

KF Show Summary: If there is a car movie more cultish than the original 1971 film "Vanishing Point," we don't know about it. This is the movie that listeners have requested we review for years and for absolutely no reason it's just never happened. Until now. With the recent passing of Kowalski himself (actor Barry Newman) we decided the time had come to give it it's due. The thing is, of our trio none of us was really a hard core fanatic of the movie. We all had seen it at least once, but that was about it. Thankfully Greg Hagemann, our expert from the KF Patreon gang, stepped up to help.....and then just took over so we wouldn't screw it up. He knew the movie inside and out and was armed with facts for days about the artistic side of the movie as well as the nerdy automotive side. He even owns and drives a "modern" Kowalski Challenger to back up his street cred. 10 Dogs.

KF Show Summary: On our quest for a Father’s Day episode we decided to review this one! This is the episode where Luke, an ex boxer in the Marines who nearly accidentally killed someone, has to choose his Uncle Jesse's farm or to trade his soul. And he can’t choose either. Uncle Jesse knows that he has a dilemma to help Luke with, but instead of giving him the answer (which he COULD d0), he helps Luke learn how to make an impossible decision on his own. Because that’s what fathers do best; teach their kids how to make the tough decisions and be better for it. And then Luke punches the bad guy out, wins the farm anyway, and Jack Gill makes jumping history in the General Lee with the first ever "bungee" suspension vest. 10 Dogs.

KF Show Summary: There was a time in this country where you could do anything and subjective morals said that drugs - like marijuana were evil, but objectification of women…..was a good thing. Smoke em if you got em, right? Times have changed. Anyway, this is the one where Bo and Luke accidentally pick up a water heater that’s really a giant box of marijuana meant for a crime Lord (that old chestnut). In 1980, that meant sexy private detectives in a convertible Trans Am were comin’ after you! It also meant that in 1980 the Dukes of Hazzard had so much juice that this was the SECOND time a new spinoff plot would be introduced in an episode. The Dukes partner up with the detectives, take down the bad guys, right the wrongs, wear the tight jeans, climb the mountains in short shorts, and all's right with the world. Except the spinoff. Didn’t happen. Thought it was no fault of those jeans. 8.5 Corndogs.

Cooter trips on a pebble and shatters his ankle, forcing Luke to Drive his ‘68 Chevelle against Bo in the General Lee. Cousin against cousin. Car against car. Mone e mono. And while their egos started writing checks their butts couldn't cash…eventually they had to concede that while they couldn’t not try their best to win, the each always wanted to see the other succeed. And they ended wit two broken cars crossing the finish line, one forward, one backward, in a photo finish tie of cousinly love, making all the wrongs right. Also, nighties need to make a comeback. Rating: 10-Perfect Corndogs.

The post K&F Show #263: Doubleheader! Fast X Recap of Automotive Weirdness; Dukes Review S3E13 “Duke vs Duke” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Holley is the company behind Nitrous Oxide Systems.....but thanks to the FF Franchise it's better known as "NOS" (pronounced "nawsss"). It's exactly what you think it is, and it does exactly what you think it does. Need a 125HP shot on your 200 horse daily driver? Go for it. It's America, bro!  Check it out here: https://www.holley.com/products/nitrous

Check out the brand new KF Show Shirt! It's the CNH 320 Edition: https://teechip.com/themusclecarplaceK&F Movie Summary: With the premier of Fast X this weekend we decided that it was time to feature, nay, prepare for the onslaught of awesomeness that is coming. Accordingly, please enjoy our fully loaded rundown of Fast and Furious franchise trivia followed by the original review of the original movie (from Episode 44 of the Kibbe and Finnegan Show. ) Finnegan loved the movie. He also loved mini trucks. You be the judge.

This of course is a 20-plus year automotive franchise that took bunch of VCR and DVD player thieves to the stratosphere of international spies…..and proved that you can somehow do a burnout - AND a wheelie - and the same time. Jack Gill - who got his bones in the stunt world via the Dukes of Hazzard - has been the stunt coordinator for this series….and even Dukes stunt man Corey Eubanks was involved in the flipping of the bus in Fast 5. More importantly, this series pays attention to US. You’ll always see a car or two in here - sometimes in a major roll, that came right off the SEMA Show floor. 

Fast X was supposed to be the finale of the series….but, just like those damn Marvel movies, this series prints money.
Picture Car Coordinator Dennis McCarthy has basically figured out how to make ‘68-’70 Chargers from carbon fiber and cheez-whiz at this point, so we say keep e’m coming!

Holley digs fun, speed, and deals......and so do we! If John Milner were still alive today he would probably be a healer of Holley parts....and he would DEFINITELY have upgraded to electronically controlled exhaust cutouts. Holley calls them the "Attitude Adjuster." We call them, "God Bless America!"

Check out the brand new KF Show Shirt! It's the CNH 320 Edition: https://teechip.com/themusclecarplaceK&F Movie Summary: If Corndog were transported in time, this is where he’d end up. I get it now. American Graffiti is about a time when cars, car culture, cruising, and podcasters - which back then were called Radio Disc Jockeys - ruled and ruled supreme. This movie made actors into stars, in many cases - lifelong big time MOVIE Stars. Featuring Ron Howard,Paul Le Mat, Richard Dreyfus, and a young carpenter pulled back into acting by a friend - Harrison Ford, this is the tale of a yellow ‘32 Deuce against a big block ‘55 Chevy. Or is it? By the time this is done, you might be wondering if ‘58 Chevy’s are on the comeback….or if the whole movie was a setup for the 1980 Disney Classic "Herbie Goes Bananas," co starting Terry the Toad himself, Charles Martin Smith. More so, American Graffiti is the launchpad of Star Wars….because as a result of this movie, George Lucas would have a blank checkbook for the rest of his life to do whatever he wanted. 10-stars.

The post K&F Show #261: The Super Ultimate Extra Spectacular Car Culture Movie Review: American Graffiti! first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Normally our presentation for Holley features a kick-ass Holley event or a kick-ass Holley speed part, but in this episode we'd like to thank a kick-ass Holley person who (as of May 5) will be moving on to newer endeavors. Specifically, we'd like to publicly acknowledge and thank Bryan McTaggart for the time we've been able to work together. Bryan is one of the many voices at Holley that you've certainly read on MotorLife, but his collaboration with US specifically over the years has been pretty epic. If you like flying orange Chargers, know that you have a friend in Bryan too. Thanks, Bryan!

Check out the brand new KF Show Shirt! It's the CNH 320 Edition: https://teechip.com/themusclecarplaceIn this KF episode, kick back to hear a feature interview that will tickle the ear drums and whatever the thing is that makes that "ASMR" stuff so brain-tingly appealing. Specifically, in this one we are re-playing the very first "OG" discussion between Kibbe and Corndog, circa 2014. It was a feature interview on The MuscleCar Place back during a simpler time, and a time when young Corndog was just stretching his might of General Lee knowledge into the internetspehere. Kibbe tracked him down due to his mighty flexing of knowledge on Dukes of Hazzard forums and had to know how this guy knew so much about the General Lee.

Long story short, it was this interview that launched the era of Dukes of Hazzard nerdlandia into The MuscleCar Place podcast network in a permanent way. The KF Show as we know if today (and Kibbe Lee) are all a result!

Also....we couldn't record a "regular" show this week and had to pun next week. We needed to run something....so here ya go. The Bernie on the News is new and fun though, and thanks to Jason Roberts for hanging out with Bernie last week.

Enjoy!

Check out the brand new KF Show Shirt! It's the CNH 320 Edition: https://teechip.com/themusclecarplaceKF Show Summary: Less than one year into this wonderful show this episode features fashion-model twin sisters who drive a semi, the most wacky on screen kissing I’ve ever seen, lady car strippers, intense in car footage of drifting, high-speed 180’s so beautiful you’ll cry, and then General Lee configured as a trophy truck. This is the episode that proves you can’t make a show like this anymore but are so glad they could then, blondes do have more fun, and it ends with a team of beautiful bad guy women being pulled to prison - in chains - on foot - behind the offroad General Lee. And then back to the twins in a semi. The End. Rating: 9 Corndogs!

The post K&F Show #259: The Dukes of Star Trek; Dukes Review S2E12 “Arrest Jesse Duke” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

K&F Show Summary: Movie Review: In honor of the Masters PGA Tournament we bring you our review of the best automotive golf move starring Adam Sandler known to man; Happy Gilmore. Think of it like Billy Madison, but it’s about golf, has Apollo Creed in it, and stars a ’74 Duster with a sweet aftermarket sunroof! Happy Gilmore is a man who wished he was a hockey player and who was raised by his grandmother after his mother ran out of him and his dad was killed by an errant hockey puck. While his hockey dream would never become a reality, the slapshot he mastered would help him to become a long drive golf hero of the common man. It would also somehow get him beat up by Bob Barker, host of “The Price is Right!” Aside from the slapstick humor, this also gave us the chance to do a deep dive on A-Body MOPARS and investigate the magic “1973 and newer” front disc brake swap phenomenon that changed MOPAR humanity as we know it. All credit goes to Happy! 10 Corndogs!

The post K&F Show #258: The Masters and Adam Sandler’s ’74 Duster; Movie Review Revisit – Happy Gilmore! first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

KF Show Summary: Just a year after debuting, the Dukes was now so popular that it was the launch point for spinoff series. about a Texas Ranger named Jude Emery who "cut it a little different" but could "still cut it!" Jude came to Hazzard to arrest hijacker Snake Harmon complete with a non functional gun, a guitar that was really a suitcase, and a Korean War surplus transport vehicle that runs so poorly that Jude keeps a horse saddle in the back just in case. This is another example of the Dukes of Hazzard debuting a fantastic idea that would later go on to be reality elsewhere (I'm looking at you, Chuck Norris). This is quite possibly the *coolest* episode of the Dukes ever made! Some episodes are bigger on stunts and some are shorter on shorts, but none are as cool and as fun. Also, Dick York from Bewitched is in here as temporary Sheriff Grady Bird (because James Best was on strike), and actor Sam Melville makes his first appearance as a bad-guy-of-the-week (he'll be back in two more episodes).

The post K&F Show #257: Fried Easter Bunny and Women’s NCAA Tourney; Dukes Review – S2E19 “Jude Emery” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

KF Movie Summary: This is like when you read the ingredients for a new dish you’re interested in….and all the ingredients are perfect. Peanut butter. Bacon. Chocolate. Fancy Cheese. And then you eat it….and you can taste some of the good things in there, but the combined end product - which should be good….is not good. It’s not bad. But it’s definitely not good. Tommy Boy has mostly the same ingredients and it’s amazing. This one should not make a Michelin book. Chris Farley is the Roger Clinton to Tim Matheson in this movie, the idiot brother of an up and coming politician running for Governor. Dave Spade is a nerdy worker for the governor, assigned to keep Farley out of sight and out of the news. A road trip in a ratted out convertible muscle car ensues until they right the wrongs of voter fraud putting that had placed the wrong politicians into the highest office. There are a few redeeming points and laughs….but this ain’t no Tommy Boy. Rating: 6 Corndogs.

The post K&F Show #256: Knight Rider Guys and LiDAR Fuel Senders; Car Movie Review – “Black Sheep” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

KF Show Summary: If there were one episode - that had THE jump of the General Lee - it would be this one. This is the final episode of Season 1 of the Dukes of Hazzard, and what started just a few months ago as a more redneck version of Smokey and the Bandit has become the car hoppin' comedy western we all wanted…..with tassels in just the right spots. Hazard County is robbed by the likes of Laurel and Hardy impersonators, done under the ruse of a fake health quarantine of all the government officials by an illness. The illness was supposedly highly dangerous...but in the end was just a case of poison ivy that was totally misdiagnosed, causing the tax payers millions. This episode has it all - comedy - jumps - and well placed tassels. In addition, there are NO scenes that utilize in-car green screen! Rating: 10 Corndogs

Friends, after the debacle in the February Patreon Show our man Corndog put Kibbe on suspension for one single show. Luckily it was with full pay, full benefits, and zero accountability. Kibbe will be back next week! In the meantime, as many of you have requested, pull up a chair around Uncle Corndog to hear the REAL story of the Wheelstander General Lee, built by Richard Sephton at the tail end of the filming of the Dukes of Hazzard TV series. This is the REAL story of the car....and is a little different than what you hear recently on the VinWiki YouTube channel.

K&F Show Movie Review: Happy NASCAR season! The Daytona 500 is this weekend, so that means it's time to rebroadcast of our review of Days of Thunder from KF Show 137. When you've reached perfect once, you gotta own it!

The team that brought you Top Gun, brings you Top Car – better known as Days of Thunder. Both movies feature a wildly talented but undisciplined rebel who is as awesome with driving machinery as he is with the ladies. Both feature a helmet-less motorcycle riding Tom Cruise as the lead who goes through massive success riding his own ego….until his butt can’t cash them when he gets hurt – in one case just mentally, and in the other physically. Both leave him scared to re-engage at the thing he does best…until he basically resolves it in about 20 seconds by realizing….he’d damn well better or his friends were going to die in one case, and in the other they’d just be super bummed they lost the race…and move on with life. Whatever.

Both feature a wise father figure Tom Cruise at first rejects the authority of, then later craves the leadership and approval from. Both have Val Kilmer as Iceman playing the uber talented and more successful nemesis turned friend….except in Days of Thunder it’s Michael Rooker playing Rowdy Burns, both have an amazing failure on the first try to woo the leading lady, and both have a dead goose scene…except in days of thunder it was just a bird run over by a rental car. This is the most perfect racing movie of all however, and even today still is adored by fans – and NASCAR drivers – including the current reigning NASCAR Cup Series Champion who goes by the name of Rowdy Busch…and runs number 51 on his own race cars outside of the Cup Series. This is the movie that proves to get the girls, you gotta go fast, and if you’re from California you’re not really a yankee…you’re not really from anywhere.

But, love know no boundaries - and just like Cleetus we all have to take the high road and go on to date a bank teller anyway.

The post K&F Show #252: Love Week for Valentine’s Day 2023 – Dukes Review – S4E12 “Cleetus Falls in Love” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Dukes Review: Somehow, within just a single year of this show starting, we went from being a more racy version of Smokey and the Bandit to a Saturday morning cartoon family fun spectacular. In this episode - NASCAR Royalty Cale Yarborough appears, only to test an illegal turbocharger for NASCAR in a white un-decaled General Lee. Even better, at one point the plot of the episode revolves around 3 General Lee - all being used on screen to cause confusion - all at the same time. The production quality is just like we like it too - crappy. There are painted over side-marker lights, scenes shot out of order, and it’s just so dumb that it’s fun....and that’s the way we like it too!

KF Movie Review: To commemorate our 250th episode we bring you Cannonball Run 2. By today’s standards it’s crass, racist, sexist, and a hilariously offensive automotive escape from reality. Back then though, it just was a crass yet hilarious automotive escape from reality. It stars everyone fun and funny from 1984 as you would expect from Burt Reynolds to Don Knotts to Frank Sinatra. If you liked the first Cannonball Run you’ll love this one….because it’s the same movie. Again. The Rigatoni's and Fettuccine are in the mob, people pretending to be sheiks only because they have big noses, and John Schneider’s personal Lamborghini Countach makes an appearance with Catherine Bach! The cars are as big as the stars and they do what cars do best: slide and fly. This movie was hated by Siskel and Ebert because they hated movies that don’t make you think. But we don’t need to think. We never did. 10-Stars.

Tom Wopat is here! With our man Corndog gone this week (to do "parenting" stuff) we knew we had to do something big....so we replaced him with Dukes of Hazzard legend Tom Wopat! Well....actually, we after last week's show we realized that, like Corndog, Tom's favorite seasons of the Dukes dated back to Season 1 as well for most of the same reasons. So, it seemed only fitting to replay his one and only appearance on our show from 2019 (Episode 102). Tom went from being a farm-kid in Wisconsin dreaming of playing for the Green Bay Packers, to being a lead on Broadway, becoming Luke Duke, and back to Broadway. There’s something for everyone in here – and plenty of Dukes insight as well!

National Parts Depot Presents: Bernie on the News: Also in this episode....the good people at National Parts Depot have to decided 2023 is the year to present the Award Winning Newsman Bernie McPartland in his (self-proclaimed) award winning news segment, Bernie On the News. As most of you know, NPD is the title sponsor of The MuscleCar Place Podcast and has been since 2011. Their immense support of TMCP as a show (and as a company) can't be overshadowed. And now, the fact that they are presenting Bern in the drivers seat for the world to hear....is somewhat humbling. And by humbling, we mean frightening, terrifying, sickening, etc. Welcome, NPD (and Bern, don't screw this up)!

Patreon Peeps, the year 20232 will be an important one for Patreon specifically, and if you'd consider jumping up to the $5 level it would sure help.

Corndog's Dukes Review: Well, this is kinda how I see it… y’all are all about some Hallmark movies this time of year… so this was about the closest thing to it….“An independent strong-willed girl comes to town… she falls in love with a local boy who is sometime wild and hard to tame. He falls in love with her too, but knows that it’s gonna be hard to change his ways and settle down. But wait… ole girl’s ex-boyfriend followed her into town and doesn’t want to see the new relationship flourish! So local wild boy steps in to protect ole girl and save her honor. They kiss… tell each other how much they love each other…… and then she skips town, never to be seen or heard of again”.

Dukes Review: Somehow, an episode that has next to no General Lee in it…..is so endearing and charming it must be due to Christmas magic! In this episode they choose to re-enact the Charles Dickens classic A Christmas Carol. (FYI - everyone in Hollywood now does this. Bill Murray did it in Scrooged. Will Ferrell and Ryan Reynolds just did it too in Spirited. It's on Apple + and is pretty good!). Not good enough? This is the tale of Scrooge Hogg stealing Christmas trees from Hazzard citizens and the Dukes stealing them back to deliver them in Santa suits. Not good enough? In a nod to childlike happiness, the bad guys in the episode also wear Santa suits….meaning there are 6 Santas at one time. When the bad guys in Santa suits get caught, Cletus calls them "Merry Men!" The Boars Nest is decorated, proving that Christmas decorations at dive bars make them extra cheery. Better yet, there are carols, hot chocolate, and this episode ends on a message of what Christmas is all about - unconditional forgiveness…..topped off by some jingle bells flying overhead by (possibly) a certain jolly old Elf. Rating: 10 Little Debbie Christmas Cakes!

Movie Notes: Remember when I told you in the original Christmas Story Review that the whole movie was a love letter to his dad? I was right! Ralhie is an adult now with a wife and kids of his own, and he has to deal with the passing of his Old Man at Christmas while simultaneously dealing with his own career midlife crisis. There are bar flies that will amuse you, a mom that hides from the scourge of the earth known as carolers. Thanks to his wife and his mom, Ralhie gets the win, teaches his kids how to stand up to bullies, and has a few beers with his life long friends. And fixes a Plymouth radiator with a half dozen eggs. This masterpiece is going to rival - for some - the best movie of 2022. Watch out Top Gun Maverick, and screw the crappy review that the New York Times gave. This is a classic for the rest of time! PERFECT 10 LITTLE DEBBIE CHRISTMAS TREE RATING.

Presented with Holley! We're happy to let you know that Holley is doing another amazing engine giveaway but you only have until Dec 5, 2022 to get signed up for it! This time it's the latest and greatest LT motor filled with some of the best parts money can buy, including a forged rotating assembly that brings displacement to 427 cubic inches, Mast Motorsports Black Label cylinder heads, a custom ground camshaft, and as many Holley parts as we could throw at it. All of this will be controlled by a Holley Terminator X EFI system, making it capable of up to 700 horsepower. https://www.holley.com/win/ltenginesweepstakes/

Movie Notes: If there was one movie to review that best summed up the mind of kid-dom at Christmas it definitely has to be A Christmas Story! The tale of Ralphie Parker and his desire for a Red Ryder BB gun is ingrained in Americana, thanks in part to the 24-hour marathon on the Turner Broadcast networks beginning in the late 1990's. It's set in the late 1930's and is laid over with Jean Shephard's voice telling the tale of his youth. From fighting bullies with green teeth, to being tricked into radio commercials for Ovaltine, to his old man's desire for a MAJOR AWARD, this movie has it all and never gets old. There are even old cars, a tongue stuck to a frozen pole, and a duck that gets his head cut off.  PERFECT 10 LITTLE DEBBIE CHRISTMAS TREE RATING.

The John Hughes Movie Car Spectacular! Kibbe created the criteria for all of this, so if a major one got missed or you disagree with the reasoning it's his fault. First, the movie has to be well known. It has to have been released within his lifetime. He could have written it, directed it, or both. Most importantly there has to be a car that you instantly identify with that movie or that someone would be wacky enough to make a replica of!

Dukes Review: When Corndog picked a Georgia episode to review I knew to trust his judgment. This episode features everything: Jerry Rushing, the self-proclaimed real-life Bo Duke, Lee 1 in it’s after jumped form, and a thin Boss Hogg with a weird accent and even weirder eyebrows. Add to that mismatched GL’s as far as the eye can see, real GL horn sound effects, and writing credits by none other than Bob Clark (from "A Christmas Story")! 10 Corndogs.

Movie Review: Planes, Trains, and Automobiles!

The KF Show is off at SEMA 2022 this week! That's good news though, because we'll come back with plenty of stories and content for you. In the mean time we are kicking off the month of November with a "re-run" of our famous review of Planes, Trains, and Automobiles! 

So here's the thing - when it comes to a Thanksgiving themed highly quotable slapstick-yet-tearjerker movie to review there's really only one that is worthy of doing so for: Planes, Trains & Automobiles. Let's admit it - John Hughes plus Steve Martin plus John Candy equals perfection. And yes, before you even say it, we have reviewed this movie years before with Finnegan (Episode 51) in fact. And yes...it was so funny then that, like this movie, it's worth a repeat of because it's as timeless as it gets....plus the re-enactment of the "you play with your balls" scene was pretty epic!

Better yet....the entire second hour on Patreon (www.patreon.com/kfshow) does a deeper dive on the car, the quotes, the unaired plot points that explained so much more, and another movie re-enactment of the most famous scene in the movie. You know the one....those aren't pillows!

Kick back and enjoy - and have a Happy Thanksgiving!

Dukes Review: DIt’s the Dukes of Hazzard Reunion……again. This time, like the last time, the combine some old scripts from the TV series and create a slightly newer episode from it. Which episodes you ask - well - at a minimum, Season 7 Episode 6 titled The Dukes in Hollywood, combined with Daisy’s Song from Season 1, combined with - possibly - the 1962 movie The Music Man - which ironically the Hazzard town set was built for. Now, add to that a brand new jump of a General Lee - the first since the TV show ended - and it gets more interesting.

And add to that that we see the original hero car close up inside - a lot - and that’s fun. But perhaps most interesting of all is that this TV movie is possibly, nay, probably the precursor to a little movie that will come out one year later in 2001. That movie, like this episode, features a teaming up a local Mexican or hispanic family that fights crime with cars, likes block parties, and has a penchant for the '68-70 Dodge Charger. That’s right. Add this to the list of stuff the Dukes invented but did not get credit for; the Dukes created the Fast and Furious Franchise. The end.

The post K&F Show #241: Can Openers in Tires For Everyone! – Movie Review: Dukes of Hazzard – Hazzard in Hollywood 2000 Reunion! first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Dukes Review: When I heard in 1996 that there was going to be a Dukes reunion I ran out and bought a copy of the National Enquirer. Why? Because pictures of the Dukes filming were in it for some reason? Entertainment Tonight had a segment called “hot rod heaven” with Bo and Luke laying on the hood of the General and talking to each other, and everyone was going to be in it. And then it premiered. And they had a different theme song. And Waylon Jennings wasn’t the balladeer. And they had new sound effects for the General Lee, not to mention the General looked different and goofy. Why are the numbers, pushbar, tailpanel, roll bar all messed up? And the lighting and picture and coloring was weird. And other than Bo, everyone looked older….and maybe not quite as tight and right as they once were, but hey, Dukes is Dukes. Rosco is funny, Jesse is good, Luke is still stronger and faster than everyone, and Bo can still drive. Cleetus returns - which I’m glad to see - Cooter returns from serving in Congress of all things - Daisy…..is getting a PHD and has an affinity for eating ribs.

It’s basically just a two hour regular Dukes episode where the boys have to race the General Lee to save the farm (again), Enos proposes to Daisy and she says yes (again) only to then cancel on him (again), but even a weird episode of the Dukes is better than no Dukes. Plus, this is the one where Corndog's real General Lee made it's premier! Bonus info: the first time you see the GL on screen in this episode....is Corndog's car!

Movie Review: Joe Dirt. This is it! If you have been waiting months or years for us to finally review this movie, your days of suffering are now over. Here it is in all it's glory. This may be the perfect movie for a show like ours to actually review because,  #1 - it’s dumb,  #2 - it’s funny, #3 - it has great cars, and #4 - this movie is told, in audio story form, from a radio station, with everyone glued to their audio listening device.  This was a time when real stars were on the radio....which we're just going to claim as old-school form of a podcast.  It may also be (in a way) the redneck cousin sequel to our favorite movie Tommy Boy as well (listen in for details).

Dukes Review: Rob's Summary…I was in 5th grade when this episode originally aired. I sadly didn’t understand it all coming to an end at that time as a kid, and now as a near 50 year old adult it seems just as hard but yet totally for different reasons. For the last six and a half years we have made a show about a show, and I for one have loved it! Anyway, enough with the sappiness. This is the final episode of the Dukes, John Schneider finally gets to write and direct something…..my High School Nova reappears one last time….and the General Lee actually gets hurt - from, a jump! The stunts are grossly limited as you'd expect from a cancelled show, but nonetheless the plot must go on. So...here's the plot: there’s a Hazzard County talent show at the Boar's Nest and Rosco has a magician's act that supposedly makes Boss disappear. But when Boss actually gets kidnapped the Dukes must rescue him from two stone cold killers….so that Boss can get back in time to rescue Roscoe’s broken heart.

Dukes Review: KF friends, we are on the dawn of reviewing the final episode of the Dukes of Hazzard. We knew this day would come. The Dukes of Hazzard changed SIGNIFICANTLY over the course of 7 seasons, and so has the Kibbe and Friends show! Accordingly, and because we needed a bonus show this week anyway, here is a look back on our very edition of the KF first show - and first review of the first sever Dukes of Hazzard episode, One Armed Bandits. It's corny, it's weird, and it's way different than how it it all wrapped up. Same as the KF Show. KF Show Phase 3 begins in October 2022!

Boy pines after girl, girl thinks of him as a friend, boy saves girls life over and over again…girl thinks of him as a friend again, boy once again saves girls life, girl proposes out of guilt, boy declines out of rightful pride, then everyone decides to get married, and then boy gets hives out of a reaction to happiness. The wedding is then cancelled until the 1997 reunion show where it will be on again…until it’s canceled again. If I didn’t know better I’d say this show was going to be over soon. This is a boring episode for the most part done with little to no stunt budget, but at least there are NO miniature cars used.

Movie Review: Big government and big business used big media to crush the little man who was just trying to build a better mousetrap of a car! That’s right, our beloved Big 3 all agreed on something - and that something was getting their corrupt state senator to smoosh the competition of Preston Tucker for daring to want to offer a high speed, disc brake, seat belt equipped new car that could really move. I’m betting Elon Musk watched this movie, took notes on what NOT to do, then launched a car company without getting killed. That's all tongue in cheek of course (hopefully)!

This is a movie that will inspire you, intrigue you, and make you want to learn more about the Tucker Automobile….but definitely the man who gave it name.  It’ll also make you want to smoke, drink whiskey,  and wear suits with fedoras. I don’t know how historically accurate it was in truth but let’s assume that it was in the ballpark.  Sure made for a good movie!

Dukes Review: Orson Wells broadcast War of the World on the radio in 1938….then in the 1960’s Star Trek led to Star Wars in the 1970’s which led to ET in the early 80’s….and finally that led to this. Let’s get it over with. I know that I have been dreading this episode since we debuted this show in 2016….and I am betting that when the script for this episode leaked to the Warner Brother brass that they cancelled the series it before they even filmed this episode. That said, there's too much negativity in this world as it is so let’s put on a happy face and enjoy what’s good!

First, there are no miniatures used in this episode for stunts (they rely on B-roll for jump footage). There are outstanding interior shots of the General Lee that will make us excited once again for tracking down the Forever Young soundstage Charger. There’s toe-tapping alien music music with a country twang. This might be the first - and only episode with graphical special effects. The power of local radio - and the local radioman standing at his post to deliver the news people need to know is displayed proudly in this episode. But what you don’t know is, this episode was the audition tape that John Schneider sent into the producers of Smallville….because this episode featured John Schneider - hiding an alien that can shoot lasers from his eyeballs - in a charming farmhouse. 

There. We got through it. Together.  1 Corndog.

Dukes Review: Hughie Hogg returns with a fake Genie, a fake Magic Lamp, and a scorching case of hemorrhoids (we assume). This is a dumb episode, and for a series that started out with RV’s full of hookers being driven over county lines that became a family friendly show with a magic car, that then became a joke with imposter Dukes cousins, that then tried to put the Dream Team back together with a family friendly focus, it’s nice to end the series with a return of Hughie Hogg and his original two henchman. Again it's dumb. Boss Hogg thinks that there is a genie in his office. A real genie. That's all you need to know. And while there are miniature stunt….at least it isn’t of a jumping General Lee. And at the very end….the Dukes risk their lives to save the bad guy, and that's a lesson from the Good Book any way you slice it.

Movie Review: This is the coming of age tale of Lightning McQueen, the uber talented yet uber cocky up and coming race car in the Cars universe. You know the story just as well as we do so we'll spare you the standard details. Basically, this is the tale of a universe where cars are people, racing is the national past-time, and Route 66 is rediscovered. The list of voice talent is outstanding and is helmed by Owen Wilson, Paul Newman, and Larry the Cable Guy. It'll make you laugh, cry, and wish you were what you always really wanted to be in life.....a car! This is the first of the Cars trilogy of movies, but in our humble opinions...it's the best.

Dukes Review: This is the first episode to release in 1985….and by this point in the show, the series was actually over. Filming had ceased. Actors were looking for new jobs. General Lee’s were sitting idly, waiting for a young Corndog to document them, knowing that there were 27 General Lee’s at the time and he stashed 8 of them for himself to find when he grew up. Tom Wopat directs the episode and - like his previous episodes - really gives fan service, interesting camera angles, and always establishes where the General is. There are no miniatures used of any kind - only recycled footage of jumps and new wrecks. At the end everyone is on scene together and happy. Rosco is over the top funny. It’s a really nice episode. White there are no new jumps, there are new stunts in it - including a big General Lee wreck that is potentially that last GL to be wrecked on screen. But I have to admit…it kind of seems like a goodbye.

Movie Review: Ferris Bueller's Day off is the tale of one high school hero who truly had it all; looks, brains, money, friends, a smokin' hot girlfriend, popularity, style, and panache. However, despite all of that he still lacked the two things that he needed most....a day off, and a car! This is the tale of Ferris Bueller, the 4th wall breaking, Ferrari stealing, John Hughes immortal movie hit of 1986. Like nearly every other John Hughes tale the setting of the story was the Chicago suburbs!

The Ferrari in the film is supposed to be a 1961 Ferrari 250 GT California. The insert shots of emblems and wheels really are of the genuine article, but absolutely everything else was a faker-oo Modena Spyder replica (three of them, actually). Ferrari was none too happy with this movie and sued Modena out of business. Most reports show that the Ford powered replicas were ham-fisted together, ran poorly, and broke down often. In fact our man Ryan Brutt (The Auto Archaeologist) joined in to share the tales of the man that keep the fake Ferrari's running during the movie filming; his dad!

The post K&F Show #228: #KibbeLee Father’s Day 180’s! – Summer Movie Review with Ryan Brutt “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Dukes Review: This episode features my high school Nova, a classic voice over actor, and no miniature GL jumps. No GL jumps at all in fact, not even recycled real ones. That’s probably a good thing, because while this episode wasn’t remarkable, it wasn’t offensive. Boss Hogg gets caught by people doing to him what he’s always done to others; he got robbed with no insurance to protect him. And, he recognized that the Dukes were innocent in the predicament…but he still used them to solve his problem, because he knew Rosco was too dumb to solve it himself. The bad guy lead girl actress is the former wife of Beach Boy and Two Lane Blacktop Star Dennis Wilwon…..which did not help her acting skills. A helicopter is involved, there’s a little bit of miniature stuff, but again…..no GL jumps, and that means no miniature GL jumps. This is like when your kids comes home from school with a report card full of C’s and a note from the teacher that said he didn’t get in a fight today. He just sat there. And that’s good enough for me.

Dukes Review: Perennial bad guy actor Judson Scott returns in this episode. He's been on the Dukes as a bad before.....but we all know him best as the Number 2 guy to the most evil space character ever in cinematic history.  Nope....I'm not talking about Darth Vader, I'm talking about Khan Noonien Singh from Star Trek II! Khaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!! That dude was pure evil. Anyway, Judson Scott was his second in command in Star Trek II. Unfortunately, that's about the only remarkable thing about this episode to give you. There are miniature stunts, miniature prisons from which to perform a miniature prison break from, and a few funny scenes of Boss Hogg on a strict diet. Corndog spotted a General Lee with diamond tuck seat covers....so I guess that's something. Meh. Sorry folks, can't win 'em all.

Movie Review ReRun: Friends, prepare to enjoy a re-review if what is quite possibly the greatest road-trip movie ever made: Tommy Boy! Chris Farley and David Spade play (basically) themselves in this odd-couple MOPAR trip that saves the employees of Callahan Auto - and the town of Sandusky, OH itself - from the inevitable corporate takeover bearing down upon it. Chances are you have this movie memorized inside and out already. If you don't, take a dump in a box and mark it guaranteed because you apparently have spare time. Plus, we have did the entire Second Hour of the show for the Patreon audience and have included it here....so if one show isn't enough, two is going be as smart as taking the Butcher's word for on a T-Bone steak. PERFECT 10 CORNDOG RATING.

Note: The original first hour of our Tommy Boy review was original published in October of 2019 in Episode 126. For the first time ever we are re-releasing this review, complete with the additional second hour that was for our Patreon only audience! This baby is 2 hours of jam packed movie quotes, GTX trivia, and insider MOPAR knowledge that brother just gotta hug about. Enjoy!

Dukes Review: This is the episode where the General Lee goes rabid! The General gets turned into a remote controlled car, set to detail a train full of money with a load of dynamite in the trunk. Boss Hogg was behind the scheme of course, but the Dukes came back and nearly fought to the death to protect the most important their lives: their honor? No. Their fortune? No? Their reputation? NO! It was for their car! We have all learned this life lesson, and like them we all know that cars have a soul, need to be protected, and need to be fought for. Quite honestly, if it weren’t for the miniature stunt - which thankfully were minimal - this episode would be an 11 out of 10. Plus, the bad guy just happened to be Kung Fun Joe from to classic movie spook "I’m gonna get you Sucka!"

The post K&F Show #224: Alex Taylor, Obsolete iPhones, and Top Gun 2; Dukes of Hazzard Review S7 EP10 “Danger on the Hazzard Express” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Dukes Review: Cale Yarborough returns for some reason and he’s a better actor than many other guest stars! Mr. Belding (Dennis Haskins) from Saved by the Bell gets to be a star, finally! This is his third appearance on the Dukes, but first as a bad guy. More notably, and most importantly though, Al White (think "Jive Talk" from Airplane!) returns to Hazzard to play the role of another bad guy. Al White can do no wrong!  Unfortunately, even though Cal Yarborough is here....this rest of this episode only does wrong. Lotsa wrong. Lotsa horrible horrible wrong. This episode features not 1, not 2, not 3, but 4 miniature General Lee stunts….and….AND….a two wheel ski stunt. I can rationalize the cost savings of not jumping real cars dammit, but putting a car up on two wheels? That’s like - $30 in tires at this point and $50 for Buzz Bundy to work his magic for 5 minutes. But, I digress.

Anyway, here's the plot. An orphan is sick, he’s huge Cale Yarborough fan and though we’ve never ever seen him before (and we’ll never see him again) he’s super close to the Dukes and they get Cale to come and cheer him up.

These damn miniatures. Not even the awesomeness of Cale Yarborough, Mr Belding, and Al White can overcome that.

Dukes Review: We’ve been telling you for years that The Dukes of Hazzard was a modern day Western, just with cars instead of horses. Well - this time - it’s literal. This is the episode of the Dukes in the old west (and by that we mean the South, but that's harder to explain). If you’re a fan of the Dukes you’ll like this episode. It’s fun. If you’re in it for the car, skip it.

I really think this was yet another Season 7 metaverse episode - like the Waylon visit - where they know it’s tv, we know it’s tv, they know it's a western, we know it's a western, and with a wink and a nod they just did the obvious next metaverse move. Frankly, the only thing they didn't do in this episode was paint a horse orange and put numbers on it.

The post K&F Show #222: Mr Mom and Air Fryers; Dukes of Hazzard S7E08 Review “Go West, Young Dukes” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Dukes Review: Before I say the following about this season 7 episode, there are two miniature jumps in this episode and that makes me sad. And then there is a real jump that's redeeming, but it’s recycled. And the General Lee is barely in this episode, which is bad. But with all that said, this episode is awesome. It’s not Season 2-3 magic, it’s no Carnival of Thills, it’s not the one where Bo got amnesia and thought he was Boss Hogg’s son, it’s certainly not Happy Birthday General Lee…..but this is a really great episode.

Summary: Bo and Luke get caught by some corrupt southern law, and that corrupt southern law does what it does best…..show off. They get sentenced to a road gang, in fact, and while it's certainly fully intended to be a Cool Hand Luke ripoff, it works! They escape, wrongs are righted; the end.

From a production standpoint this episode is really terrific. It gives us outstanding REAL FOOTAGE SCENES of John and Tom driving…..and the General saves the day with Catherine Bach behind the wheel. The acting in this episode is so believable, so real, you will almost forget you’re watching the Dukes of Hazzard. Almost.

Happy Gilmore is a man who wished he was a hockey player and who was raised by his grandmother after his mother ran out of him and his dad was killed by an errant hockey puck. While his hockey dream would never become a reality, the slapshot he mastered would help him to become a long drive golf hero of the common man. It would also somehow get him beat up by Bob Barker, host of "The Price is Right!"

Aside from the slapstick humor, this also gave us the chance to do a deep dive on A-Body MOPARS and investigate the magic "1973 and newer" front disc brake swap phenomenon that changed MOPAR humanity as we know it. All credit goes to Happy!

The post K&F Show #220: General Lee Drift Brake Placement; Movie Review – Happy Gilmore first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Dukes Review: In this episode - a fake movie star played by Barry Van Dyke comes to Hazzard - a real TV show - to shoot a fake movie inside of the real TV show - and then they all go to Hollywood to a fake movie studio - that’s really the real Warner Brothers Studios - to shoot the movie as if they were in a TV show about creating a fake movie. Everyone got that?

Barry Van Dyke is someone you may know, but you definitely know his dad……none other than Dick Van Dyke, star of stage and screen, a TV show of his own name, murder mysterious, and the beloved Disney classics. Anyway, they shoot the entire episode on the real Warner Brothers backlot, and SHOW YOU the backlot. The General drives up Hollywood BLDV even. Maybe this was just a gift to we fans who knew the end was near, who know. This is a great episode - in fact so great that the second Dukes of Hazzard reunion TV movie was based on it (Hazzard in Hollywood). Corndog's real screen used General did the jump in that episode!

Movie Review: It may be hard to believe, but despite the fact that we have referenced Dumb & Dumber over a billion times in the history of this show....we have never actually reviewed one of the best movies ever made. Today, that will be rectified. We present for your our review of Dumb and Dumber!

This is a movie that you will love every time you see it, you’ll never get sick of quoting it, and you’ll laugh just as hard every time. My sister loves this movie. My buddies love this movie. If you have ever met someone that thinks this movie is dumb, you need to dust the feet off of your sandals and move on from that wacko - they can’t be saved.

The post K&F Show #218: Audience Limerick’s for the Win; Movie Review – Dumb and Dumber first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Dukes Review: I like classic Dukes scripts and inside references…..and this episode has both. A classic amnesia plot device along with framing the Dukes for (insert reason here) makes this a classic tale of southern fried 1984 goodness. But in Season 7, with all of the super terrible episodes we have to deal with, this one may as well be eligible for an Emmy.

Here's the summary: A smack talking robot that looks like a dude in a cardboard robot costume your 4 year old would make comes to Hazzard, has a southern slang name, and becomes the new Sheriff of Hazzard.

You know that story you’ve heard that During World War I, on Christmas Eve, British and German troops stopped the fighting amongst to horror of war to celebrate Christmas together, that’s what this episode is like in Season 7. Amidst the horror, we have this nice episode. The episode you knew they had in them. Sure, there are some miniatures stunts, but just a few, and there are a couple of kind good real ones, and all the great stunts are recycled from previous seasons. Yes - I know that in Season 5 they offset the suck of Coy and Vance with AMAZING stunts, but this episode…..gives me hope.

The light at the end of the tunnel might not be an oncoming train. 7 Corndogs

The post K&F Show #217: Which Batmobile is the Battest; Dukes of Hazzard S7E05 Review “No More Mr. Nice Guy” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Movie Review: Days of Thunder! The team that brought you Top Gun, brings you Top Car - better known as Days of Thunder. Both movies feature a wildly talented but undisciplined rebel who is as awesome with driving machinery as he is with the ladies. Both feature a helmet-less motorcycle riding Tom Cruise as the lead who goes through massive success riding his own ego….until his butt can’t cash them when he gets hurt - in one case just mentally, and in the other physically. Both leave him scared to re-engage at the thing he does best...until he basically resolves it in about 20 seconds by realizing….he’d damn well better or his friends were going to die in one case, and in the other they’d just be super bummed they lost the race...and move on with life. Whatever.

Both feature a wise father figure Tom Cruise at first rejects the authority of, then later craves the leadership and approval from. Both have Val Kilmer as Iceman playing the uber talented and more successful nemesis turned friend….except in Days of Thunder it’s Michael Rooker playing Rowdy Burns, both have an amazing failure on the first try to woo the leading lady, and both have a dead goose scene...except in days of thunder it was just a bird run over by a rental car. This is the most perfect racing movie of all however, and even today still is adored by fans - and NASCAR drivers - including the current reigning NASCAR Cup Series Champion who goes by the name of Rowdy Busch...and runs number 51 on his own race cars outside of the Cup Series. This is the movie that proves to get the girls, you gotta go fast, and if you’re from California you’re not really a yankee...you’re not really from anywhere.

The post K&F Show #216: 2022 Daytona 500; Movie Review – Days of Thunder first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Dukes Review: Compared to this episode, the last episode that I gave -4 Corndogs to….was pretty good. This episode…..is the new lowest point of the Dukes of Hazzard (until we get to the episode with the short alien). Much like the American automotive industry, this episode is another example of great innovation and horrible execution.

Here's the summary: A smack talking robot that looks like a dude in a cardboard robot costume your 4 year old would make comes to Hazzard, has a southern slang name, and becomes the new Sheriff of Hazzard.

Once again, the Dukes of Hazzard sets a future trend - which in this case is technology automating the role of the working man - but that won't help you to avoid thinking about how much you hate what has become of your favorite TV show ever. But, if I’m honest, I can’t hate this episode….because it’s so laughably terrible. They know it. We know it. And they know that we know it. -10 Corndogs

Dukes Review: In possibly the most cost cutting episode of the Dukes of Hazzard ever seen, Luke gets ahold of some genetically altered drugs from big pharma that split his psyche into two and turn him evil and mean. How evil and mean, you ask? So evil and mean that he knocks over mailboxes, robs banks while wielding a gun, and does the worst thing ever - wears tennis shoes! But that’s not the worst of it. This may be the worst Season 7 episode gaffe so far as a miniature police car jumps - and lands - on a miniature flatbed semi trailer - loaded with miniature rubber tires - and bounces then directly upward - and forward - to land in front of and cut off the miniature General Lee. I could puke, but not a miniature one. -4 Corndogs

Dukes Review: The metaness of the multiverse - as now popularized in Spiderman 3 - and as categorized in the last episode - apparently came from the Dukes of Hazzard. This is the episode of the Dukes where Waylon Jennings, the real life show balladeer comes to visit Hazzard. And he does so, because he knows the Dukes. Because it turns out - this entire series - up to now - has been a real-time story telling of the Dukes to we the watching audience by Waylon Jennings. Meaning, he knows this is a TV show. And they know this is a TV show. And they know that we know that they know that this is a TV show. And before this is all said and done you're going to learn when the song "American Pie" has a whole lot to do Waylon Jennings Tennessee based museum (from 1984) and the worlds most famous flying orange Dodge Charger!

The post K&F Show #213: How-To Drift Brake Setups For Everyone! Dukes of Hazzard S7E02 Review “Welcome, Waylon Jennings” first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Movie Review: What do you get when you combine 2 great actors with amazing chemistry, comedic timing, a woman to fight over, a REEEEEALY old man to make horrible inappropriate jokes, a Minnesota winter at Christmastime, and elderly jokes a mile long? One of the most perfect movies ever made - Grumpy Old Men. It’s Walter Matthau and Jack Lemmon fighting over Anne Margeret, making the same kind of dumb jokes that guys never - and I mean EVER - get sick of telling.

Now - this is an automotive and pop culture podcast of course - and there are plenty o cars in this movie….which might be the problem with it, maybe the only flaw in fact. The star cars are a 68 Dodge Polara and a ‘74 International Harvester Travelall, but don’t forget the 83 Pontiac Grand Prix and the red 1980 Chevy Citation - all of which in this movie are rust free, and all of which in Minnesota would have had 4 wheels in the ground by the time they were 7 years old. They salt cars in the Midwest like Bernie on a Tuesday morning bacon bender. 10 corndogs. Plus 2.

Dukes Review: It’s been nearly 6 months since the last episode of Season 6 aired, and in just 4 and a half months….it’ll all be over. The final season of the most beloved car show ever is about to begin, and while the original mission of Gy Waldron to have a non family friendly booze hustlin' prostitute lovin' inbred family mission was lost long ago, the final season is one we all have to look on with a grain of salt. The show that gave us so much joy, happiness, costly hobbies, costly careers…..is in it’s final launch. There’s plenty of bad this season (and I’m talking about more than the miniature cars being used for stunts) but there’s some good too! And luckily for us, the person to direct it knew just a little something about the fans of the show. Thomas Steven Wopat presents the birth of the General Lee and - whether he meant to or not - creates the canon of the entire series by answering what every little boy needed to know most.

Why are the doors welded shut? It’s here. What’s under the hood of the General? It’s here. Why is the General orange, with a rebel flag on the roof, a dixie horn under the hood, and why is it named General Lee? It’s here. More importantly, how does an old dead wreck from a junkyard become able to fly leaps and bounds, win every race, catch every bad guy, win every girl for the Duke Boys, respond to it’s name on command, be so much of a family member it gets it’s own birthday cake, and become the most magical car in the history of the known universe and the most famous car in the world? It’s here!

Movie Review: Just when you thought you had heard every Santa origin possible….this is the one where they kill him, and could completely care less.  No one is even sad.  And apparently, we shouldn’t be either! Tim Allen goes on a movie tear in the 1990’s that’ll melt your bank account. But this one is a Christmas classic about a divorcee father that loves his kid, makes something of himself beyond just that of a wisecracking Ford Taurus SHO driver, and a North Pole that’s filled with elves played by children. Yessir, Tim Allen may just be everyone’s favorite Santa too…until he falls off a roof and is forgotten forever.

Dukes Review: As someone once said, no good deed goes unpunished. What started as a series known for its unbelievable car jumps and stunts....has just become a cost cutting mid 1980's cash cow destined for cancellation. This episode, the very last one of Season 6, features the beginning of the end. Miniatures. Miniature buildings. Miniatures cars. Miniature jumps. No wonder they stuck this episode on a Saturday night when they thought no one was looking. It's a shame too, because the episode itself is honestly pretty good plot, driving stunts, and features a great guest actor (Hal Williams, 227). Barf. It had to happen sometime. Christmas is ruined.

Dukes Review: We're not going to lie, Season 6 is nearly to a close and it's starting to get weird. There's a fake fortune teller played by the lady from Policy Academy. There's a little person (and they actually don't say "midget," thankfully). Also, Bo's not in this episode. There's also a 68 Charger with a REALLY terrible 69 taillight conversion. This friends, is a really odd episode with tons of sub plots, a Dodge van, and no new General Lee jumps. That's the bad news. The good news is that Corndog's book had a ton of details on this episode and we added a lot to our list!

Dukes Review: I’ve got good news and bad news for this one. Here’s the good news. My high school Nova returns and you are going to see a sweet jump of the General - from a very important location. The Hazzard impound yard….You’ll see Rosco cars there, bad guys cars you recognize, my high school Nova….and what’s this? A non General Lee unconverted white 68 Charger (likely a future-to-be General Lee). That’s the good news. The bad news is….I think the first stunt-miniature shot might be in this episode. It’s not of a car though.

FEATURE INTERVIEW with DAVID FREIBURGER: We're as shocked as you are. Five-and-a-half years after launching this show with Mike Finnegan we have finally landed his (one time) boss, mentor, adventurer, and Roadkillinginly cool buddy David Freiburger! David has become a staple in the automotive media landscape having spent 20-plus years in print before he ever came to YouTube and Television. He just recently penned his final piece for the February 2022 edition Hot Rod Magazine and last year filmed 61 individual episodes for various shows on the Motor Trend platform (Roadkill, Roadkill Garage, Engine Masters, etc.).

In this discussion you'll learn what we all really wanted to know about living life in the fast lane, working a seemingly endless schedule, and never getting the chance to completely finish any project. Like us, David grew up believing that 1968 and '69 Chargers were it when it came to the all invulnerable muscle car, as powerful as it is cool looking, as desirable to others as it faithful to its owner.

He enjoyed the Chargers of The Dukes of Hazzard (and has stories to tell), Dirty Marty Crazy Larry, and others, but his favorite is the one that he and Finnegan built together: General Mayhem. If you've followed that car over the years you know it has gone from a motorhome powered drifting underdog to a Hellcat powered drag car. David loved the first iteration of it and he's just recently put it back to it's original glory.

Dukes Review: There’s a plot. Too much plot, some good shots of the General, a cool jump or two…..and then I forget. The IMDB guy got it mostly right. Daisy gets confused by a hypochondriac mobster for being a nurse because she was in a church play that required extra short nurse outfits. And she switched her book of lines for the play with his book of illegal business and ill gottenness. So there’s that. The General Lee had carbon buildup, which is dumb, backfired, and then the whole episode is dealing with said hypochondriac. Luckily, Corndog found a detail on a GL with a 273 small block and nitrous!

Dukes Review: Hey great. Just what i want to talk about this week. Death, funerals, and graves.  Welp, here goes….here’s the good news.  There’s a jump and a cool slide of the General that almost hits the camera guy. Here’s the bad news. There’s no more good news.  Bo isn’t in this episode, Dewey Hogg who we’ve never heard of is the bad guy - who I am assuming was only here because they couldn’t get Jeff Altman to play Hughie, and it gets even too cartoony for me. And I like dumb. 4 Corndogs.

This is Rob Kibbe writing. By now you have all heard that my dad Dallas passed away. As such, please listen in to a special edition of the KF show complete with a rebroadcast of Episode 132 whee we reviewed the movie "A Christmas Story." It was one of my dad's very favorites and we played it for him the night before he died. It turns out in our review we discovered that it's really a movie about fathers and sons just as much as it is about Christmas. Corndog loves this era of cars and culture, so there's plenty to enjoy there as well. Thank you all for listening and loving us. My dad loved listening most.

The post K&F Show #203: Kibbe’s Dad’s Funeral Details; Rebroadcast of A Christmas Story Review first appeared on The Muscle Car Place.

Dukes Review: This is the show that convinced you that you can spy on any secret conversation simply by hiding under a desk. I hid under my parents bed once for an hour to hear what I was getting for Christmas…...but they never left immediately after spilling the beans like they do on TV and I eventually had to crawl out and got caught.

Anyway, this is part of the "Dukes Infiltrate the Mob" episode by racing in NASCAR, in an Oldsmobile, that’s supposed to be a Chevy, that someone wants to replicate out of a Buick. Solid story telling, vintage NASCAR, good stunts…….that’s fine. The introduction of glamping is here, and that's nice. There’s not enough General Lee in this episode of course, but this the episode that the PC culture should watch….because the Duke that wins the NASCAR race - in one try - is Daisy. And in a true sign of playing both sides of the aisle, the Dukes get another phone call from the President of the Unites States. Now they've had a call from a Republican (Reagan) and a Democrat (Carter). Good episode. More General Lee, please. 6 Corndogs.

Dukes Review: You had me at two part episode. In the entire Dukes series run we’ve only had this happen two other times, in fact! There are faux stock cars with factory Oldsmobile burgundy dashes, random weird sitings of NASCAR Champ Terry Labonte, and chimpanzees as crew members. 1984, you never looked so good.

Anyway, Bo and Luke - in less than 20 seconds - choose to leave Hazzard and serve their government for a complete and total stranger with the goal of putting a corrupt mob boss behind bars for good. The only problem…..they have to leave the farm - and Uncle Jesse - to do it!  Worst of all, they can’t tell a soul why or else their loved ones will be KILLED gangster style. Daisy loses it, because she’s out of the loop on the truth......and she’s really freaked out that Coy and Vance are coming back. Aren’t we all.

Dukes Review: The preview shows jumps, cars sliding in a junkyard, and more jumps. You had me at junkyard. Luke’s long lost love (named Candy Dix - no joke) from his days in the Marines arrives. She’s now a huge Country and Western star of course and she has an abusive manager that would love to see her dead because her life insurance would pay off his gambling debts. The classic story, I know. Watch out for this guy - he’s a trickster - and he’ll be on an episode of Knight Rider in about 10 months driving the evil KARR, KITT's twin (yet evil) brother.

Anyway, Bo and Luke get rid of the abusive manager, jump some stuff, cruise a junkyard with a Karmann Ghia in it, and then Tom Wopat sings at the end which I assume was part of the deal that brought them back in Season 5. It’s a good episode. Why? Because stunts solve problems people. They just do. And - there is an outside chance this is the same plot for the second Dukes of Hazzard reunion movie. 6 Corndogs.

Dukes Review: Dukes Review: Just when you think the Dukes of Hazzard has invented everything in modern TV and movie pop culture we find out they invented another huge celebrity that is my secret shame to zen out to…..the PBS sensation known as….Bob Ross. That’s right, this is a show about paining happy little trees faster than the General Lee can go from '68 to '69 to '68. Boss Hogg has local painter Artie Bender declared legally dead so he can sell his paintings for more money….and it works, proving that art is subjective to the point of stupidity. Anyway, Aritie Bender witnesses a robbery, Bo and Luke chase the bad guys, Artie is declared dead and can’t vouch for them, Sheriff Little tries to kill them, and it all works out in the end. 6 Corndogs.

For those of you who are Patreon show supporters....you already know what's coming! This is our July 2021 Patreon Q&A show. Normally this show is only released to the Patreon crowd but due to some timing conflicts we're releasing this to both the Patreon crowd and our "regular" crowd as well!

Patreon Peeps - we'll make it up to you. For those who aren't Patreon Peeps - this is what you're missing out on!

Dukes Review: It’s been a while since we had a good old hypnosis episode. Now, I must admit, this episode was one that I was dreading…..until the stunts started.  This is the one where Daisy gets hypnotized into thinking she's a long lost heiress of a really sad, dedicated, and super rich old guy. They even did a rare callback to a previous episode character (the hypnotist Dr from Season 4) and used the same silly music! And is it just me, or is hypnotizing someone against their will to gain financially more than criminal....maybe more like, evil? Seriously, Boss Hogg should probably go to prison for life here.  Is this a great episode?  No.  But it’s not terrible.  And in Season 6, that’s something.  The End. 7 Corndogs.

Dukes Review: Paris Hilton’s aunt Kim guest stars as the long-lost daughter of Cooter. Finally! And there's more aviation in this episode, but it's a glider that's launched by the General Lee and would probably crash due to lack of any real altitude. I digress. Anyway, Cooter has a kid…..but in Season 6, family values reign….and they make sure to point out that the child was conceived in wedlock. Later on, Boss Hogg starts a Jane Fonda type physical fitness campaign. Then we meet actually evil bad guys that Cooter keeps fighting with who are doing the most evil thing ever in the early 1980’s - dumping TOXIC waste. There's a lot going on in this episode, but one thing is for certain.....there is not enough General Lee to make it fun. 4 Corndogs.

Dukes Review: Wait a minute. I watched the show preview. Haven’t we seen this one before? And was that bad guy…...the African American "Car 55" cop from Blue Brothers? And is Boss Hogg committing insurance fraud...again? Dang man. This seems kinda boring. Daisy become a crop duster, Boss hired bad guys to do something, they double crossed him, one of the bad guys can fly a plane, they ran a protection racket against farmers by threatening to poison their crops, there are some great GL drifts in here at high speed….and the few minutes of aerial shots is awesome….but then Bo hangs by a rope ladder - from a plane - while the bad guys exhausts not one, but two 6-shooters trying to kill him….and he’s literally just hanging there, pretty hard to miss frankly….I’m at a loss here. I'm mostly in this for Corndog’s Book. Oh - 28 episodes to go. The countdown is on.

This is the edition of the KF show that you Bernie McPartland fans have been waiting for. This is where Producer Bernie is fully in charge. Kick back and marvel at how he uses his 30 plus years of broadcasting experience to lay it on thick, saucy, and peppered with guilty yet endearing advertisements for our incredible sponsor Holley as well as our official KF Patreon show. The man is a pro!

Seriously though...we have encountered the 5-Wednesday month of June which for us means a really rare thing; a week off! Our Patreon show for June will air next week so we either needed to go radio silent this week or get one of us to actually work for free. Corndog refused, citing his contract, and then downing an all original 1972 jug of MOPAR washing fluid. Kibbe was gone but stated on his way out the door, "just have Bernie do it if we have to do this, dammit." And that friends is all Bernie McPartland, 30-year professional radioman, needed to hear.

So kick back and tune in for Bernie on the News, pop culture updates, and about 30 minutes of some of the greatest hits from our recent Q&A Patreon shows. If you love it, let us know. If you hate it, just pretend it didn't happen. Either way, thank Holley it happened....and then pony up and join us on Patreon (please please please)! Visit https://www.patreon.com/kfshow

Thanks Dudes and Dudettes. We'll be ready to go on Patreon next week and back in the booth on after the 4th of July! The Deserving Listener Donation for June is the amazing artwork you see here, created by hand at Dirt Road Endeavors! Visit https://www.facebook.com/dirtroadendeavors to view more!

Movie Review: Back To the Future Rebroadcast! As a great man once said, if you put your mind to it you can accomplish anything...and we have just accomplished our review of Back To the Future, the most perfect, amazing, awesome, cool, and funny time travel movie featuring a DeLorean ever!

Dukes Review: The preview alone showed two movie-quality camera shots of the General that have been burned into my brain since the age of 8. Hell yes. Let's be clear. The Dukes was once a show about race car driving ex-moonshiners, but it morphed itself into a classic Western with bad guys and good guys. And kick ass camera shots of sliding Chargers. And jumping Chargers. And people sliding in the windows of Chargers. And this one is the first feature of WHOGG Radio (obviously, we like any reference that shows radio being important and relevant.) The RidgeRunners are back. The Dukes pull a trick that will inspire the resolution to the movie Three Amigo with the art of confusion. And Daisy drives like a banshee in this one, proving a hot chick that can drive hot is extra hot….and she is on Enos’s jock like static cling (quote "Tone Loc" on that one). 10 Corndogs.
