Hank Watson's Garage Hour - Cars, Trucks, Beers & Guns

It's all ball-bearings nowadays, unless you're a gearhead on the Garage Hour: too many projects + not enough arms = late uploads. Thanks for waiting around (we're worth it).

This one's a late-night special - Chef Jeff and Gringo Rich support Hostus Maximus Justin Fort's occupation of Protector Brewery's tasting room in the Beeralani Maker's District, but that's the only part that followed the plan. From bleeding (brakes) to gears and axles (broken), the Consultancy immediately veers off into Nine Inch Nails, old motorcycles and snowblowers, the Belushi Effect and the 17-Year Old Effect.

The goons kidnapped Amanda from Protector to chat up their new brews too, including a S.M.A.S.H. named C2, a brut called Brutus and a fruit ale dubbed Berserker. She knows more about beer than we do, plus she's pretty: yes, have some!

This is the inaugural Garage Hour Dude Food Chili Showoff, live from Protector Brewery. This is also gearhead awesomeness.

#1: Do you like chili? We made four. Ruben from Smoke 'N Aces' watermelon chili beat Chef Jeff's pork cushion chili verde for "People's Choice" by one vote. Mr. G's salsa and two-bean chili and Hostus Maximus Justin Fort's two-meat chilis were popular, but could not measure up to the professional chefs.

#2: Do you remember where you were on 9/11? We take a serious moment for reflections on where we were, why we re-enlisted, how we felt and how many Tomcats we scrambled on 9/11.

#3: Do you want your multibillion-dollar car company to be headed by a pot-smoking vampire? We debate Elon "Caligula" Musk and his progress in circling the drain.

Because we're awesome, that ain't all, folks. Direct from Pizza-Wrench Monkey Oven Brewing, there's also halal VS anti-halal chili, why 3-D printed guns are a First Amendment before they're a Second Amendment issue, and sorry about the delayed upload - server issues.

You can't get this kind'a gearhead awesomesauce without a license... or a warrant... The Garage Hour goons assembled at Location A for an hour of hard parts and broken bits. The Diesel Ayatollah and Gringo Rich performed a complete Harbor Freight compressor teardown during the show, much to Hostus Maximus Justin Fort's chagrin (poor bastard was trying to run a show...).

Once the fleer diaphragm and hoseplot dialopter were adjusted to spec, however, it was all trucks and rocks and bonk, with extensive tales from the depths of high-mountain Colorado. Nothing like a weeklong diet of boulders, scree fields, knobby tires, murderous hyraxes and brewery after brewery to make the Ouray-Silverton-Durango off-roading mecca go like a champ - one of the best FJ Summits in memory. Thanks to Rock Hound Off-Road and Marlin Crawler for making getting there (and get-back) possible.

Download yourself some Garage Hour now before Uncle Donald summons the Gearhead Consultancy to the Oval Office (because everything goes better in the garage).
