What is going on everyone and welcome back to TT! This week, I welcome back my good friend Jeff Sutton aka Jalopy Jeff, automotive reviewer and influencer extraordinaire.

You find us recording in the rodeo section over at West World during the Fall auction for Barrett- Jackson. First off, thank you Barrett-Jackson for the media passes.

We discuss why now is the right time to buy third gen Vipers, recapping some of the great deals that occurred over the respective weekend, Jeff's new project where he is wide bodying his new to him C43 AMG, his view point on changing his garage and so much more. This was a fun episode record as per usual when it comes to Jeff and I. It's become tradition at this point and one we continue to uphold moving forward.

Please make sure you follow Jeff on his social media handles @its_jalopy_jeff and more importantly his YouTube channel.

And of course make sure to follow Barett-Jackson on all of their socials as well and be sure to check out the winter auction coming from January 17-25, 2026.

Hi everyone and welcome back to TT. This week, I am honored to welcome J Ryan of the Late Night Playset and founder of the Good Vibes breakfast club in Los Angeles.

J is best known for the two things above as well as going adventures in his yellow 997 911. Based on the name of his show, it is clear that he is also a fan of older late night TV. We chat about working for Conan O'Brien back in his youth, why David Letterman is such a big inspiration, driving in Deloreans with Kobe Bryant and so much more.

Additionally, what I really loved about this episode is that it's very different from anything we have done in the past. This was a very vulnerable conversation and J and I really opened up about life, things from when we were growing up and of course, we have to talk about his lovely late wife, Nicole.

I hope this episode can serve as a reminder that life is fragile, short, yet beautiful. And remember to always try and live it to the fullest, like Nicole did. And that people will be there along the way to help you, encourage you and you are not alone in this life. I am incredibly grateful to J for sharing everything he shared with me, and I can honestly call him a friend after this and a man I very much admire. Cheers to you J, and cheers to Nicole.

Follow J on social media @porschelife111 where you can find him on another massive road trip as we speak.

Those who we love that pass on are always with us. They live through us, so let's make them proud.

What is going on everyone and welcome back to TT! This week, we welcome Alana Carter to the program.

Alana is a race car driver who races in SRO for a few different teams including Toyota, Hyundai and more. We chat about the challenges about racing in the rain, random playlists that pop in her head while driving, why she loves a 3RS and so much more.

This was a great conversation and I cannot thank Alana enough for her time. Her personality is infectious and she is a great person to chat with.
