Chad & Steve Have a Podcast

Hey everyone, we are still alive and back with episode #118 of Chad & Steve Have a Podcast! We are joined by Robert Dunn (Aging Wheels) and diving into a whirlwind chat that spans everything from camera settings, AI video creation, and the charm of old-school analog photography, to the mixed reactions we've seen in the comment sections.

We also get into the nitty-gritty of car safety, ponder over the beauty(?) and design(?) of things like the Cybertruck, and share our personal stories about handling the good, the bad, and the ugly comments online.

Plus, we can't forget Robert's head-turning cars, run-ins with vehicle regulations, and how politics plays a part in what we drive.
