I emailed you years ago about this and you had responded with a fantastic list. Excited to see a whole show about it! Can confirm literally any restaurant that Matt and Zach recommend is bomb as fuck. Appreciate you guys!
Can you share the list? I’m going to be on LA and SF next month

Podcast in the AM. Let’s gooo
lol yeah it accidently went live yesterday. Glad they reposted with ads so they can get money from it.
yes have her reviewing it
Well maybe you should wear a mask once in a while just to boost engagement
😂😂😂
I think you're onto something here.. lmao
Matt wearing a mask while talking about Tesla/Elon -might- WILL send the numbers into space(X) 🤣
I almost commented as much on the last video. All those morons complaining about a preventative measure were just feeding the algorithm. I almost thought he did it on purpose though, so I didn't want to say the quiet part out loud.
Happy wife happy life, thats how we ended up with a tesla model s instead of a e450 wagon
you cannot be serious
@@BorisBidjanSaberi11 Easy choice for her, both the same price but one never needs to go to the gas station. She loves her car, meanwhile I get to enjoy my manual 911
@@Busy_Childthat deprecation gonna hurt but if you can afford it, fuck it
The attempt to bully you into not wearing a mask is crazy. I admire your integrity. Keep it up!!
"Trust the science" 😅😅😅
Also in the battery talk from the e gwagon. Batteries actually recycle really well.
I can't remember whether it was in this or the previous episode (I think it might've been the previous one), but someone asked you about the weirdest "handling by Lotus" projects and I immediately remembered the Bighorn. I saw one of those at the Vladivostok airport in 2020, and my thoughts were pretty much the same as Matt's (they couldn't have made it handle like an Elise, right?).
Porsche as an engineering firm also had some strange collabs. You probably didn't know that they had a hand in the development of the Soviet Lada Samara in the 1980's (if my memory serves me - most of their input served to make those cars handle better). There you go.
Just FYI, the karting school in Ventura closed several years ago.
Topaz E46 M3’s are notorious for clear coat failure. I’ve seen it on some other colors but mostly on the Topaz for some reason.
Maybe ask Tyler Hoover about how he feels needing to replace the engine in his recent G-wagon purchase
The car spotting on Rodeo Drive is worth it even just driving down it you’ll see cool cars! Also the Whole Foods in Malibu!
Comedy Store is a must!
The considerate thing to do when you’re sick is stay home. Remember when people did that during COVID? I don’t care one way or another what people do. But there are plenty of medical studies to read about mask efficacy.
I would love to see Hannah review the car. I'm interested in the car but my wife hasn't given it a chance, maybe Hannah can answer the questions I can't.
We’ve all been waiting for this one
11:35 there is a G350d and 400d available. I think Chris Harris had one before he bought his Land cruiser.
Yes, but those aren't sold in the US.
I am native to San diego and Palomar mountain is very well known and honestly is getting a little too congested these days. I prefer 94/campo rd along the border, sunrise highway through mount laguna and even the road through lake Cuyamaca(both of the last two can take you into Julian). Also Banner grade from Julian heading east(downhill) is nice and Montezuma rd into Borrego springs. Can’t forget route 79 from santa ysabel all the way up into Temecula is very nice with smooth roads. Those are just a few that are off the top of my head. I can include more but won’t(my favorite is rt 74 from hemet into mountain center).
Love the backroads of San Diego. Been driving them since I’ve owned an 07 s2000, then an 09 c6 z06 and currently a 2019 grand sport w/ z07 package.
As you can see, I like cars that shine in the turns. Have a great day, fellas.
Another fun podcast 😃
Delaying a repaint is only allowing more time for prices to increase more. How long do you think you'll keep the car? Longer than a wrap will last?
YES have Hanna review the I5N and post it at length!! I want my wife to also consider this, as her Macan GTS (which she loves) she is not loving the upkeep costs…. And may consider something new and the I5N seems similar In enough was to be something I think she would enjoy. But we don’t get the luxury of a week long test drive… my wife would take her opinion better than mine and yours.
I would like to see Hannahs take on some cars.
As someone who is married to someone who doesn't notice cars I would love to see Hanna review the car.
I wonder if the G-Shock will get a price bump after this episode, want the white one too :(
Come on Matt- Zach is worth a Paint job - hook a brother up, get it done for him.
1 min in great topic
I was just in LA this past weekend for the first time and listen to this podcast religiously(fuck). That being said I am subscribing to the patreon. I even turo’d an f-type too great experience nonetheless.
Would Hannah like the regular Ioniq 5 over the N? Similar to Mach E vs Mach E GT
Zack gets it on this one
Can you talk about Pontiac possibly coming back?
For the Aston Martin question... from someone who has never followed the brand closely, it took me a while to realize the DB numbers were generations, not a range of models. For a while I thought it was like Mazda 2,3,6 etc. So looking at the DB 7,8,9 etc I was wondering what was the difference. "Here is the new DB12".... "WTF, another one!?!?! It looks just like the others! Is it just more powerful and high-end?". It might have been the same thing for that guy.
Id watch the Hannah video. But i wanna see a review of a car you love and she hates lol…because thats married life lol
on emails, have you thought about adding an auto responder with a link to the website FAQs? If you've answered the question I'd just ignore the email
26:35 - 47:00
What was the podcast Matt had to go do in his office?
Ivan Capote always asks questions that provoke people.
that mask thing was a clever way to get more comments
Yeah being considerate to your friend and co-worker, if only that kind of positivity is what the comments were about eh?
@@Mister_Typo im joking im not pro or anti mask, freedom for everyone to do what they think is best
Matt must think we are all stupid, it was just a stunt to drive interaction
I genuinely miss the pre 2015 Mathew 🤷♂️
Driving in the city of San Francisco is terrible and should be avoided.
I think Pontiac is coming back...
The mask comments were overboard 😂
What is on Matt’s wrist?
NETHERCUTT MUSEUM
When you get to it, the end of LA stuff is 46:30 for those of us with no desire to visit
No desire to visit paradise? That's a little sad to be honest. But it's okay, Malibu is crowded enough with tourists. So ya, good idea, stay away.
Free thinking if u believe what I do😂
It’s not about getting others sick with the mask, it’s the fact that Matt couldn’t have just stayed home and done it over Zoom.
But instead Matt had to make it all about himself, come in, show off the mask with the thumbnail, make horrible sounding “radio”, and the whole time he knew it would drive comments and interaction.
The bad audio was fixed after Zack turned up Matts audio a few minutes in
Your worried about bad audio but suggest zoom calling...🥴
The one good thing during COVID was people staid home if they were feeling sick. That went away before the mask mandates were lifted. And Matt tries to lecture “the other side” about being considerate. Doesn’t walk the walk like every other liberal.
Nobody want to come here. Cali is in ruins.
It's always been a concrete jungle.
Traffic in LA is worse than ever. I'm praying even more people leave.
Why would anyone want to move there. Taxes alone are enough. Let alone all the companies shutting down businesses in cities. It’s the end result of having progressives control every aspect of the government. That shit doesn’t work in the real world which they apparently don’t live in.
Still delusional about masks. 🙄
