K&F Show #260: The OG Corndog Interview (circa 2014) – All the Screen Used General Lee’s Left!

Presented with Holley! https://www.holley.com

Normally our presentation for Holley features a kick-ass Holley event or a kick-ass Holley speed part, but in this episode we’d like to thank a kick-ass Holley person who (as of May 5) will be moving on to newer endeavors. Specifically, we’d like to publicly acknowledge and thank Bryan McTaggart for the time we’ve been able to work together. Bryan is one of the many voices at Holley that you’ve certainly read on MotorLife, but his collaboration with US specifically over the years has been pretty epic. If you like flying orange Chargers, know that you have a friend in Bryan too. Thanks, Bryan!

It’s the CNH 320 Edition: https://teechip.com/themusclecarplaceIn this KF episode, kick back to hear a feature interview that will tickle the ear drums and whatever the thing is that makes that “ASMR” stuff so brain-tingly appealing. Specifically, in this one we are re-playing the very first “OG” discussion between Kibbe and Corndog, circa 2014. It was a feature interview on The MuscleCar Place back during a simpler time, and a time when young Corndog was just stretching his might of General Lee knowledge into the internetspehere. Kibbe tracked him down due to his mighty flexing of knowledge on Dukes of Hazzard forums and had to know how this guy knew so much about the General Lee.

Long story short, it was this interview that launched the era of Dukes of Hazzard nerdlandia into The MuscleCar Place podcast network in a permanent way. The KF Show as we know if today (and Kibbe Lee) are all a result!

Also….we couldn’t record a “regular” show this week and had to pun next week. We needed to run something….so here ya go. The Bernie on the News is new and fun though, and thanks to Jason Roberts for hanging out with Bernie last week.

Enjoy!

Check out the brand new KF Show Shirt! It’s the CNH 320 Edition: https://teechip.com/themusclecarplaceKF Show Summary: Less than one year into this wonderful show this episode features fashion-model twin sisters who drive a semi, the most wacky on screen kissing I’ve ever seen, lady car strippers, intense in car footage of drifting, high-speed 180’s so beautiful you’ll cry, and then General Lee configured as a trophy truck. This is the episode that proves you can’t make a show like this anymore but are so glad they could then, blondes do have more fun, and it ends with a team of beautiful bad guy women being pulled to prison – in chains – on foot – behind the offroad General Lee. And then back to the twins in a semi. The End. Rating: 9 Corndogs!

K&F Show #258: The Masters and Adam Sandler’s ’74 Duster; Movie Review Revisit – Happy Gilmore!

Presented with Holley! It’s time to look forward to spring break. How about April 28-30 in Las Vegas at Holley LS Fest West?? If an LS based (or current generation LT V8) engine is powering your ride or if you are considering a swap to LS power, this is your event!

K&F Show Summary: Movie Review: In honor of the Masters PGA Tournament we bring you our review of the best automotive golf move starring Adam Sandler known to man; Happy Gilmore. Think of it like Billy Madison, but it’s about golf, has Apollo Creed in it, and stars a ’74 Duster with a sweet aftermarket sunroof! Happy Gilmore is a man who wished he was a hockey player and who was raised by his grandmother after his mother ran out of him and his dad was killed by an errant hockey puck. While his hockey dream would never become a reality, the slapshot he mastered would help him to become a long drive golf hero of the common man. It would also somehow get him beat up by Bob Barker, host of “The Price is Right!” Aside from the slapstick humor, this also gave us the chance to do a deep dive on A-Body MOPARS and investigate the magic “1973 and newer” front disc brake swap phenomenon that changed MOPAR humanity as we know it. All credit goes to Happy! 10 Corndogs!

K&F Show #257: Fried Easter Bunny and Women’s NCAA Tourney; Dukes Review – S2E19 “Jude Emery”

Presented with Holley! It’s time to look forward to spring break. How about April 28-30 in Las Vegas at Holley LS Fest West?? If an LS based (or current generation LT V8) engine is powering your ride or if you are considering a swap to LS power, this is your event!

KF Show Summary: Just a year after debuting, the Dukes was now so popular that it was the launch point for spinoff series. about a Texas Ranger named Jude Emery who “cut it a little different” but could “still cut it!” Jude came to Hazzard to arrest hijacker Snake Harmon complete with a non functional gun, a guitar that was really a suitcase, and a Korean War surplus transport vehicle that runs so poorly that Jude keeps a horse saddle in the back just in case. This is another example of the Dukes of Hazzard debuting a fantastic idea that would later go on to be reality elsewhere (I’m looking at you, Chuck Norris). This is quite possibly the *coolest* episode of the Dukes ever made! Some episodes are bigger on stunts and some are shorter on shorts, but none are as cool and as fun. Also, Dick York from Bewitched is in here as temporary Sheriff Grady Bird (because James Best was on strike), and actor Sam Melville makes his first appearance as a bad-guy-of-the-week (he’ll be back in two more episodes). Rating: 10 Corndogs!

TMCP #536: The Ring Brothers: How Two Brothers from Wisconsin Went from a Gas Station to Battle of the Builders!

This week we are joined by car building royalty, the world famous Ring Brothers! We typically interview the Rings each year at SEMA, but at SEMA 2022 they had a “surplus” of vehicles on display (4)….and they were so busy accepting accolades and competing in the Builder of the Year competition (which they won) that we were never able to connect onsite. This is the long overdue follow up! As with all things, it was worth the wait. For the first time we were able to have a discussion about not only what they had a SEMA 2022 but how the two brothers from Wisconsin went from working construction, to owning a small gas station (for 7 months), to where they are today.

K&F Show #256: Knight Rider Guys and LiDAR Fuel Senders; Car Movie Review – “Black Sheep”

Presented with Holley! Holley has come out with the newest and coolest gizmo we’ve seen in a while: a LiDAR sensing fuel pump sender!

KF Movie Summary: This is like when you read the ingredients for a new dish you’re interested in….and all the ingredients are perfect. Peanut butter. Bacon. Chocolate. Fancy Cheese. And then you eat it….and you can taste some of the good things in there, but the combined end product – which should be good….is not good. It’s not bad. But it’s definitely not good. Tommy Boy has mostly the same ingredients and it’s amazing. This one should not make a Michelin book. Chris Farley is the Roger Clinton to Tim Matheson in this movie, the idiot brother of an up and coming politician running for Governor. Dave Spade is a nerdy worker for the governor, assigned to keep Farley out of sight and out of the news. A road trip in a ratted out convertible muscle car ensues until they right the wrongs of voter fraud putting that had placed the wrong politicians into the highest office. There are a few redeeming points and laughs….but this ain’t no Tommy Boy. Rating: 6 Corndogs.

KF Show Summary: If there were one episode – that had THE jump of the General Lee – it would be this one. This is the final episode of Season 1 of the Dukes of Hazzard, and what started just a few months ago as a more redneck version of Smokey and the Bandit has become the car hoppin’ comedy western we all wanted…..with tassels in just the right spots. Hazard County is robbed by the likes of Laurel and Hardy impersonators, done under the ruse of a fake health quarantine of all the government officials by an illness. The illness was supposedly highly dangerous…but in the end was just a case of poison ivy that was totally misdiagnosed, causing the tax payers millions. This episode has it all – comedy – jumps – and well placed tassels. In addition, there are NO scenes that utilize in-car green screen! Rating: 10 Corndogs

Friends, after the debacle in the February Patreon Show our man Corndog put Kibbe on suspension for one single show. Luckily it was with full pay, full benefits, and zero accountability. Kibbe will be back next week! In the meantime, as many of you have requested, pull up a chair around Uncle Corndog to hear the REAL story of the Wheelstander General Lee, built by Richard Sephton at the tail end of the filming of the Dukes of Hazzard TV series. This is the REAL story of the car….and is a little different than what you hear recently on the VinWiki YouTube channel.
