Peter shares how Knight Rider sparked his love of cars, why Gunther Werks pushes air-cooled 911s to the extreme, and the surprising backstory behind the company name. After, Spike and Zuckerman unpack the Porsche 911’s bizarre #1 sales ranking in Andorra, the latest Tesla controversy, and the absurdity of Jeep’s touchscreen ads. Finally, in ‘Dear Zuckerman,’ chaos ensues over incarcerated fiancés, dementia-fueled family drama, and more hilarious written-in dilemmas.

This week on Spike's Car Radio, things get messy—literally. The guys dissect a bizarre memo from Stellantis about a bathroom defiler, break down Super Bowl madness, and relive the insanity of the Ice Race. Spike reviews the 2025 Lamborghini Revuelto, debates the shifting EV landscape, and tackles a persistent Instagram troll. Plus, Waymo vandalism and a botched ad read. _____________________________________________________

It’s business as usual—meaning chaotic—as the crew reacts to a ridiculous memo from a Stellantis factory about an employee's unsanitary “habit.” They analyze the passive-aggressive memo, question the logic of group punishment, and suggest alternative methods to catch the culprit. Then, they shift gears to Super Bowl chatter, odds-making, halftime shows, and the golden era of absurd crypto ads. Jonny recounts his time at the Ice Race in Austria, where all-wheel-drive chaos meets legendary machines. Spike shows off the 2025 Lamborghini Revuelto and reveals whether this hybrid V12 beast is the future—or just an expensive mistake. The conversation turns to electric cars as Porsche and BMW seem to be tapping the brakes on going full EV. Who’s right, and where’s the industry actually heading? Meanwhile, self-driving tech isn’t winning fans as an angry mob vandalizes a Waymo in LA, leading to a debate on liability and public backlash against autonomous cars.
