Three distinct voices from the LA car scene, Brian Kadorian, Nate Rodriguez, and Marshall Garlington, are in the studio this week to examine the various forms of prejudice against the car community from the general public, law enforcement, and car enthusiasts themselves. 

In this full-length genuine conversation, Brian, Nate, and Marshall dissect and critique the nuances behind how the police selectively enforce laws, how the general public’s mindset towards the canyons differs from that of car enthusiasts, the counterculture nature and roots of the car community, judgment amongst enthusiasts themselves, the influencer culture, dealership experience, speed limit, modifications, financial implications of having nice cars, the paradox between the car market and the law, social media algorithm’s role in shaping the car community’s image, Montana license plates, self-expression through cars, the failure of “Leno’s Law” and the underrepresentation of car enthusiasts in the lawmaking process.  

Listen in on this unhinged discussion with three active members of the LA car community for a daily dose of inspiration and enlightenment!
