  • Episode 68: The Forgotten Cars MMO

    Hey, so uh.... Cars had it's own version of Club Penguin called World of Cars Online from 2010-2012? And this week, your favorite Cars-casters have put on their cool hats and busted out the bull whips to try and reconstruct as much as they can about this ancient society. Why are there zombie Cars? What are the implications of tens of thousands of Cars moving to Radiator Springs? And WHY can't my RACING NUMBER be 69????????

  • Episode 67: Moments in Hearse-tory 2

    The Ka-Chat boys are taking you back to history class once again with another installment in Moments in Hearse-tory! This time, they're diving deep into the books for some new queries, like... did Joan of Arc blow up when she was burned at the stake? Did the Salem Witch Trials actual manage to locate some real Car witches? And how did the Donner Party... ya know... do Donner Party stuff to their metallic brethren?

  • Episode 66: Teen Beach Buggy Movie

    Hollywood's darlings have returned with yet another hit on their hands. This time, they decide to cash in on the summer energy that has already left this year, and make a summer flick. Being the professionals they are, they do some heavy market research on the most on the nose film in this genre they know, Teen Beach Movie. Now I already hear you asking: "Guys, do you spend most of this episode making a Cars ripoff of this weird DCOM?" and don't you worry, because we also steal heavily from it's sequel, Teen Beach 2. (I know we never actually use this title for the movie in the episode but the options we mention are "Teen Cars Movie" and "Car-kini Babes" so I made an executive decision.)

  • Episode 65: The Rust-ice League

    Listen, we already did a superheroes episode. We know this. But the thing is... we really like superheroes and comics and stuff and it's our podcast so here is another episode about superheroes. ALSO, we did the "Rust-ice" title pun, like 4 episodes ago, but I wanted to be a good counterpart to the "A-Van-gers" title pun.  Anyway, we're talking about superpowers/heroes in the Carsverse again! Also, Lucas gets really mad about Quibi for a while. And the Snyder Cut. And DC movies in general.

  • Episode 64: Health and Wheel-ness

    Alright, drop and give me 20! Miles, that is. Because this week, those wacky Ka-Chat boys are talking about how Cars keep healthy in the Carsverse! Do they pump iron to get swole? What exactly would a swole car look like? They are (probably) made of iron, so is that, I dunno, weird for them? These are not the exact questions we ask during the episode, but you KNOW they're the general vibe we were going for!

  • Episode 63: Drugs and Alc-U-Haul

    Ha ha, nice, looks like John and Lucas finally decided to do cool episode of their podcast. That's right everybody, this week it's all 420 and keggers as those Ka-Chat fellas discuss the world of recreational drugs in the Carsverse. And by "all 420 and keggers", I do mean stark discussions about addiction and alcoholism, realizing the latest craze in mobile bars would be grotesque monsters, and the thought that Mater might be drugging and gaslighting all his friends. Man, do these guys know how to party, or what??

  • Episode 62: Honey, I Shrunk the Cars

    Well, we didn't shrink the Cars. There are just, like, tiny vehicles that we want to talk about. Ya know, like, Hot Wheels, model cars and planes, toy planes, roombas, etc. It may not sound like a lot, but it turns out that Roombas are a biomechanical military experiments who are programmed to hate and destroy dirt. That's literally canon within the Carsverse, so imagine the nonsense we come up with on our end.

  • Episode 61: Man v Car: Dawn of Rust-ice

    Over the year or so, we've been doing this podcast, we've said a few different times: "Oh, this is the one you should share with your friends" or "This is the most important episode we've done so far." But that title is now permanently taken. This week, we might just save some lives as we analyze the matchup between humans and Cars, both at a one-on-one level and an all out war. We won't sugarcoat it, it doesn't look great for us, but if you take these tips and do some preventative steps, we might just come out on top.

  • Episode 60: Or-Engine Stories: Rubber

    In the podcast The Ka-Chat, why do the two guys try to connect any movie they can to the Cars franchise? No reason. (Except that the reason is that it's the concept of the show we do and we just kinda like it and it's fun for us and kinda easy with this weeks movie, Rubber) That's right, this week we are taking a closer look at America's favorite killer tire in Rubber. Honestly, this one is tailor made to connect to the Carsverse, but maybe in a few ways you wouldn't expect. That tire and his ungodly powers are starting to remind me of someone....

  • Episode 59: Moments in Hearse-tory 1

    Listen, long story short, yes, we made another series. We like them, ok? This one is all about reimagining specific moments of human history in the Carsverse. This week, we start off with some heavy hitters. Did the Wright Brothers invent.... people? What is the existential horror of being a living Titanic sinking into the icy Atlantic Ocean? How did the rise of moving pictures work in this universe? And just what did they use to behead the bourgeoisie during the French Revolution?
