| Fine Dining and Tires with Hugo from Seize the Means Shirts | 20 janv. 2026 | 03:13:33 | |
We're back after a hiatus with the story of how a tire company got into the business of restaurant reviews, with our guest Hugo from Seize the Means Shirts. Hugo has done it all: fancy waiter, real estate agent, purveyor of tshirts, and most importantly, anti-capitalist puppeteer.

| Fast and the Furious (2001) with Left of the Projector | 24 juin 2025 | 01:49:51 | |
In this episode of Left of the Projector, we explore the cultural impact of the 2001 film The Fast and the Furious, diving into its portrayal of car culture and masculinity. Joined by Zach, Connor, Bryant and Brandon from Cars and Comrades, we dissect the film's iconic racing scenes and memorable characters, debating the significance of vehicles like the Toyota Supra and Nissan Skyline. We examine the evolution of the franchise from street racing to grand action heists, and analyze themes of loyalty and exploitation through the lens of Dom Toretto and Brian O’Conner’s relationship. Additionally, we reflect on early 2000s fashion, memorable quotes, and the film's legacy, teasing exciting crossover potential for future installments.

| One Star Reviews | 26 mai 2025 | 01:48:23 | |
Some products deserve one star reviews, but sometimes the customer is wrong. We found a few examples of the latter case. But first: Zach is in trouble with HR, Conner gets heated, Bryant buys tires (and is tired), and Brandon tries to Fit in with the import scene.

| News: Goodbye Supra, Texas vs GM, Chinese EVs Stay Winning | 28 oct. 2024 | 01:49:47 | |
Our roundup of the latest* automotive news, from a leftist perspective. The Supra is going away (again), Texas is suing General Motors, online influencers are destroying their cars for fame, Biden is bailing out Chrysler, and Ford is just realizing that selling more cars makes more money. Meanwhile, China is selling EVs that people actually want. *This episode was recorded over two months ago so some of the news might not be as fresh. Sorry for the delay on that. Also, Bryant sold his Saabaru, so too bad for anyone that wanted it. Conner's Camaro and Zach's Ranger are still for sale, so please email if you're interested.

| Left of the Projector: Smokey and the Bandit (1977) | 10 oct. 2024 | 01:47:32 | |
In this episode, we analyze the iconic 1977 film "Smokey and the Bandit" with the hosts of Cars and Comrades. We share our personal connections to the movie, discussing how it shaped our views on truck driving and outlaw culture, particularly through Brandon's experience. The conversation revolves around the Bandit's wild quest to transport Coors beer and critiques the comedic representation of law enforcement, exemplified by Sheriff Buford T. Justice. We delve into the film's themes of working-class solidarity and anti-authoritarianism, highlighting the camaraderie among truckers and the Bandit’s folk hero status. Our analysis also touches on the humor, improvised dialogue, and gender roles, particularly through Sally Field's character. As we reflect on the film's lasting legacy, we share personal ratings and recommendations, reiterating its significance for car enthusiasts and fans of classic comedy, all while reinforcing our mission to explore car culture from a leftist perspective.

We all went on vacation together in Colorado's Rocky Mountain National Park, and a comradely good time was had by all.

| [FIXED AUDIO] News: Rusty Cybertrucks, Union Busting, and Goodbye to Kum & Go | 01 avr. 2024 | 02:11:08 | |
Rollout of the new Tesla Cybertruck has been less than smooth, and it turns out that their stainless steel body panels aren’t very resistant to stains or corrosion. Meanwhile, the UAW is fighting to unionize auto plants in the South, Chinese companies are getting ready to sell electric cars in North America, and beloved gas station Kum & Go considers a name change for some reason.

We're joined by JT Chapman from the First Thought and Second Thought YouTube channels, and The Deprogram podcast, to recap the recent UAW strike, how the working class won big, and how this might lead to a general strike. Plus: Elon is up to his usual union-busting antics, but this time he's up against nearly every union in Sweden. And the Cybertruck roll out hasn't gone as smoothly as he would've liked.

| Used Cars Part 1, With Guest Alex | 01 déc. 2023 | 01:52:43 | |
We were going to make a serious and informative episode about what you should look for when buying a used car, but instead we goofed off and dared each other to buy shitty unreliable cars for $5,000. We did sprinkle in some practical advice here and there, or at least you might learn what not to do from our bad decisions. Alex will be back for a Part 2 soon, where we'll discuss practical, economical, and boring cars that you should buy if you're smarter than us.
