Movie Review: Big government and big business used big media to crush the little man who was just trying to build a better mousetrap of a car! That’s right, our beloved Big 3 all agreed on something – and that something was getting their corrupt state senator to smoosh the competition of Preston Tucker for daring to want to offer a high speed, disc brake, seat belt equipped new car that could really move. I’m betting Elon Musk watched this movie, took notes on what NOT to do, then launched a car company without getting killed. That’s all tongue in cheek of course (hopefully)!
This is a movie that will inspire you, intrigue you, and make you want to learn more about the Tucker Automobile….but definitely the man who gave it name. It’ll also make you want to smoke, drink whiskey, and wear suits with fedoras. I don’t know how historically accurate it was in truth but let’s assume that it was in the ballpark. Sure made for a good movie!

Dukes Review: We’ve been telling you for years that The Dukes of Hazzard was a modern day Western, just with cars instead of horses. Well – this time – it’s literal. This is the episode of the Dukes in the old west (and by that we mean the South, but that’s harder to explain). If you’re a fan of the Dukes you’ll like this episode. It’s fun. If you’re in it for the car, skip it.
I really think this was yet another Season 7 metaverse episode – like the Waylon visit – where they know it’s tv, we know it’s tv, they know it’s a western, we know it’s a western, and with a wink and a nod they just did the obvious next metaverse move. Frankly, the only thing they didn’t do in this episode was paint a horse orange and put numbers on it.

K&F Show #219: Fave Pies and the new Batmobile; Dukes of Hazzard S7E06 Review “The Dukes in Hollywood”

Dukes Review: In this episode – a fake movie star played by Barry Van Dyke comes to Hazzard – a real TV show – to shoot a fake movie inside of the real TV show – and then they all go to Hollywood to a fake movie studio – that’s really the real Warner Brothers Studios – to shoot the movie as if they were in a TV show about creating a fake movie. Everyone got that?
Barry Van Dyke is someone you may know, but you definitely know his dad……none other than Dick Van Dyke, star of stage and screen, a TV show of his own name, murder mysterious, and the beloved Disney classics. Anyway, they shoot the entire episode on the real Warner Brothers backlot, and SHOW YOU the backlot. The General drives up Hollywood BLDV even. Maybe this was just a gift to we fans who knew the end was near, who know. This is a great episode – in fact so great that the second Dukes of Hazzard reunion TV movie was based on it (Hazzard in Hollywood). Corndog’s real screen used General did the jump in that episode!

K&F Show #213: How-To Drift Brake Setups For Everyone! Dukes of Hazzard S7E02 Review “Welcome, Waylon Jennings”
Presented with Holley! Visit Holley.com and make SURE you tell them we sent you!
Dukes Review: The metaness of the multiverse – as now popularized in Spiderman 3 – and as categorized in the last episode – apparently came from the Dukes of Hazzard. This is the episode of the Dukes where Waylon Jennings, the real life show balladeer comes to visit Hazzard. And he does so, because he knows the Dukes. Because it turns out – this entire series – up to now – has been a real-time story telling of the Dukes to we the watching audience by Waylon Jennings. Meaning, he knows this is a TV show. And they know this is a TV show. And they know that we know that they know that this is a TV show. And before this is all said and done you’re going to learn when the song “American Pie” has a whole lot to do Waylon Jennings Tennessee based museum (from 1984) and the worlds most famous flying orange Dodge Charger!

K&F Show #210: Our 2021 Christmas Show! Movie Review: Tim Allen’s “The Santa Claus”
Presented with Holley! For some reason, this show and Holley go together like tires and smoke – a perfect fit! We are happy to announce that we have signed a long term arrangement with Holley as Title Sponsor of this wacky show for the next year. If that doesn’t make you want to buy an awesome speed part, nothing will! Visit Holley.com and make SURE you tell them we sent you!
Movie Review: Just when you thought you had heard every Santa origin possible….this is the one where they kill him, and could completely care less. No one is even sad. And apparently, we shouldn’t be either! Tim Allen goes on a movie tear in the 1990’s that’ll melt your bank account. But this one is a Christmas classic about a divorcee father that loves his kid, makes something of himself beyond just that of a wisecracking Ford Taurus SHO driver, and a North Pole that’s filled with elves played by children. Yessir, Tim Allen may just be everyone’s favorite Santa too…until he falls off a roof and is forgotten forever.

The DEEP DIVE REBROADCAST: Since the dawn of time man has wondered what really happened to all the General Lee’s from the Dukes of Hazzard TV series. We’ve been told through folklore that 19 cars remained and 17 were sold into private hands in 1991, with Warner Brothers keeping the remaining two. The problem is….there’s enough proof out there to indicate that when the series ended in 1985 that there may have been MORE than 19 General still alive….and that some may have found their way to other Hollywood productions. This is our way too involved attempt at solving these mysteries once and for all.

Industry News: Fun’s Over? GM has announced they’re going to all electric vehicles by 2035, and carbon neutral by 2040. That means that any R&D one the internal combustion engine there…..is ending. Better get your ZL1’s, Hellcat’s, and killer Mustangs while you can! (Buy two – one to drive, and one as investment!)
Dukes Review: A new season of Dukes is upon us…but the final formula of the Dukes is now in place that will take us to the end. The dramatic music specifically is….a lot. The General looks great, cars are freshened up, the clothes are a little less spray painted on, and for now the stunts DON’T involve miniatures….but knowing it’s coming may make you wretch in advance. This episode though, pretty good, and they film at Six Flags I think. To conclude… Lulu is kidnapped for ransom and then rescued. The end.

Presented with Holley! It’s a new year, and maybe a new (old, kinda crappy, still cool) ride is in your future! Holley is giving away Freiburger’s very own ’66 Buick convertible – the car that started Roadkill! If that’s not enough….did you know that Holley is hiring? Maybe 2021 could be the year you get that dream job! Click here: http://bit.ly/TMCPHolleyRoadkill, and here: http://bit.ly/TMCPHolleyJobs
Projects: In this episode…we debunk the real facts behind movie car license plates you can buy today. Also, Corndog’s black ’66 Charger needs a whole new serpentine pulley system….and he’s got it. The red ’69 is about to get a Holley 600 to replace the Rochester carb someone put on it!
Dukes Review: This is the Season 5 finale episode that features “Bull” from the TV sitcom “Night Court.” It also features a section on forced marriage. Also ultralight aircraft. Meh. Its OK. The highlight might be one jump scene followed by a weird split second when you see a bunch or random people off camera. There appears to be some in car audio taken of the GL as well, which is awesome. 5 Corndogs.

Fun-Fun: This is our final non Patreon episode before Thanksgiving…..so we did what had to be done: the best of the best from Planes, Trains, and Automobiles!
Dukes Review: As they said in Jurassic Park, Life Finds a Way. The universe has righted itself. The legal process of suing people until they sue you back for more, has worked. Bo and Luke are back in the General Lee and Coy and Vance have rode off into the sunset, never to be mentioned again. John Schneider and Tom Wopat may go down in history as the actors that set the precedent that would be used in film and TV forever going forward: bringing back a gone but beloved character. Remember Bobby Ewing on Dallas, or Han in the Fast and Furious? Ding ding ding! Also in this episode, the Chevelle Cooter from Season 3 is back, but now it’s silver. And it has thermoquad carbs on it. 10 Corndogs!
