We went on several very long digressions in this episode that are both funny AND would benefit from extra audio cues, so episode 95 will be a bonus bits fun one for our Patreon subscribers later this week.

mea culpa for audio issues in this one, good headphones are outta commission & yr producer pal matty had to edit+QA on bad earbuds. hopefully sounds good enough for the 10 or so people whose patreon pledges DIRECTLY deliberately funded the ongoing psychic attack on me ˖⁺‧₊˚ ♡ ˚₊‧⁺˖ thank youuuu

Peter came back from Indy with some driver sightings, parking lot curiosities, and tales of romance in the Snakepit. Plus, personnel shout-outs for Heart of Racing and god's strongest soldier at AO. And Rory drove the new Leaf! Also, an entire digression on this subject:

Reminder: if we're above $200/mo, Matty has to come out of a 12-year retirement from AO3 browsing and read motorsports fanfiction. And a lot of it. And then he has to explain it to Peter & Rory like he's recapping The Young And The Restless.

PLUS! For our Patreon subscribers, Rory's report on all the cool stuff he saw. A few anecdotes got cut for time, but don't worry: they're coming in the next Bonus Bits episode. Look forward to that planned ep previewing another song from Peter's new record, too! soundcloud.com/tired-podcas...

......at some point before September 5th, we're going to preview another track from Peter's new record on the Patreon! There's an automotive thing involved. You'll love it. Get in there and pre-order 'Half-Staff Blues' to snag the first single, too! peterpeterhughes.bandcamp.com/album/half-s...

Your producer pal Matty has also been busy IRL but is working on editing down a bunch of recent chit-chat into episodes. Look forward to the update from Rory about his Penske trip, another Car Professor style episode from Peter, and some very funny digressions.
