The Muscle Car Place online podcast episode number 600.

This week, a return from our long-lost pal Mike Finnegan.

As you may have heard, Mike and everything else that used to make shows go at Motor Trend

are no longer employed there.

I asked Mike everything you'd want to know, including how it really went down.

Who's to blame?

Will the events go on? And even

might what happened now that Hearst is buying all the Motor Trend IP for magazines and events? And

how could that affect the studio's ability to return? But I'm not waiting around to find out.

You know, it's like myself and all of my friends got laid off. It's been months now. And so none of us are waiting around to find out if they're going to fire the machine back up again.

And then all that conglomerate talk aside, we'll get into what he's doing now, including feature movie production,

and chat about who else is doing it right on YouTube.

Might just be Cletus McFarland. His Freedom 500s, the 24 hours of Mullets, or 2.4 hours of Mullets,

he doesn't charge any of us to go do that. And he provides the car, the live stream, everything for you to go out there and have fun and be successful,

because he understands that all those drivers bring an audience.

This is the Muscle Car Place online podcast, brought you by National Parts Depot.

Yes, indeed, I am Rob Kibby, and welcome to the Muscle Car Place podcast.

Well, here we are, everybody, a fun episode with a return from, I guess, our long-lost pal Mike Finnegan, and lost is wrong.

It's just been a long time
