Episode 98: Or-Engine Stories: Ben 10/Generator Rex

The Ka-Chat ·

2021/06/21

Hey, do you happen to have the time? Because I've got a feeling that it's hero time. That's a Ben 10 reference. This episode is our Ben 10 and Generator Rex episode. Really, it's supposed to be our Ben 10 episode, but that was too hard so we cheated and used another show to do all the hard work.

Episode 97: Grand Theft Auto

2021/06/07

But like, not the video game. The crime. But like, not the stealing of a car, more like a Car stealing something? Listen, Lucas had some trouble coming up with the title this week, so cut him some slack. Anyway, this week we are coming at you with a look at the world of crime in the Carsverse! How hard would it be to commit murder? What would heisting be like? And what's up with the Easter Buggy, a Car-ified version of the Easter Bunny who appears in 1 book and has nothing to do with the topic of

Episode 96: What to Expect When You're Expecting (a Car)

The Ka-Chat ·

2021/05/31

Listen, the title may be dumb, but it made Lucas laugh, and that's all that matters. Anyway, with John just weeks away from the birth of his first child, we figured we would use this opportunity to milk his new knowledge of the exciting world of pregnancy! Join us as, honestly, we get a bit too in depth into the details of pregnancy and childbirth, doing our best (but not that good of a job) at applying them to Cars.

Hey wait, it's been a year? ANOTHER ONE??? Well, you know what they say, time flies when you're making a weird podcast about some children's movies with your best friend! Anyway, for this one, we decided to celebrate by having a game night for us and anyone who wants to play along with us. Join us for exciting trivia about the movies, our podcast, and every in between. Or, you can choose to sit back and relax to the calming noises of John and Lucas not knowing nearly as much as they should about

Episode 94: The Soul Tangent

The Ka-Chat ·

2021/05/17

You remember when we did an episode about Toy Story 90 episodes ago that had very little to do with Cars and we were like "Yeah, we're gonna do this sometimes! It's not always gonna be about Cars!" and then we never really kept to that except for the time Lucas talked about Netflix Christmas movies for a long time? Well, good. Cause this one is about Soul. Also, a little bit about Cars, because at this point, it's second nature. Sorry.

Episode 93: Auto-Biographies: Leroy Traffik

The Ka-Chat ·

2021/05/10

FINALLY, we've got around to exploring this fan favorite! We know you've all been clamoring for, uh... let me check my notes... the guy who has a mattress on his head from Cars? Really? You have? Well, who am I to judge, John and Lucas made the episode so there must be something there. And what's there is an incredible journey where (due in large part to the lack of content they decided to base this episode on) things get a little weird. Could Leroy be unto Sisyphus, forever cursed to transport a

Episode 92: Bike-roorganisms

2021/04/19

This week, John and Lucas sweat the small stuff. .......That's all I came up with for the episode description, I really thought more jokes would start flowing after that. Well, anyway, we're talking about microscopic beings this week! Are bacteria minuscule submarines? Are viruses and computer viruses one and the same in the Carsverse? And would masking even be effective on their giant, giant mouths?

Episode 91: Pix-Car Studios: Fueling Nemo

The Ka-Chat ·

2021/04/12

Hey uh, we're doing another one of these! Like the Toy Car Story episode, but this time exploring Finding Nemo and it's sequel. Anyway, join us as we examine the implications of underwater society of sentient submarines and whatnot that are also fish, I guess. How do they breath down there? What's up with them eating each other? And what are the implications of the prominently featured dentists office from Finding Nemo?

Episode 90: TikTok on the Clock but the Racing Don't...

The Ka-Chat ·

2021/03/30

Well, us two old fogeys decided to finally get with the times and check out TikTok. And boy, is there ever a wealth of content for us there. Cosplay, skits, mind-probing quesitons, and of course, the sexualization of fictional characters who are also, ya know, Cars. So join John and Lucas as they basically siphon content from others on an app they aren't too great at using. *Note: If you'd like to watch any of these TikToks, all links and creators are together in a handy thread on our

Episode 89: Auto-Biographies: Luigi & Guido

2021/03/23

Oops, Lucas needed a bonus day to get this one done. Oh well! It's here now, and boy is it a doozy. We finally go into the two best tire salesmen this side of the Mississippi, their background, their jobs, and everything in between. Two notable moments: 1. Lucas and John spend a while comparing one of these characters to a USA network show that hasn't been on since 2013. 2. Lucas realizes that their show is basically just talking about Cars headcannons each week and has a bit of a personal crisis

Episode 88: FAST Food & Big Macks

The Ka-Chat ·

2021/03/15

Order up! This episode was slated to be about the service industry in general, with the fast food and dining industries just being a portion of it, but we got caught up in them, as we are want to do. So! Go ahead and pull around to the second window for your helping of speculation on what they eat and why they eat it, how portions would work in a society with both forklifts and aircraft carriers, a small discussion on how drive throughs and delivery services would work, and a side of fries.* *Note:

Episode 87: Or-Engine Stories: WALL•E

The Ka-Chat ·

2021/03/08

You remember when we talked about WALL•E a bunch in our first few episodes, but before we had enough structure to make into an entry in a mini series? Well, now that we have that structure (and Lucas has actually watched the movie) we decided to revisit it, 80ish episodes later! Did the humans merge with their chairs and become the Carfolk we know and love? Did the robots take over and become even more capable of emotion, speech, and sick racing maneuvers? Or maybe, it was some sort of sick combo of

Episode 86: Pokémon Legends: Car-ceus

The Ka-Chat ·

2021/03/01

My first thought was to theme the episode description around the Pokérap, but then I remembered that is 95% just Pokémon names with some singing in between, and that doesn't really translate into a, ya know, podcast episode description. Anyway, in honor of Pokémon's 25th anniversary, we decided to go ahead and do a full episode on the franchise that has been with us for a majority of our lives and how it could relate the franchise that we have forced ourselves to be obsessed with for the past couple

Episode 85: Chopper-gangers

2021/02/22

So in the Carsverse, there are characters like Jay Limo and Boat Reynolds that are just car versions of real life people. So... what's up with that? Join us as we discuss the implications of these dopplegangers, including a large amount of evidence from a promotional Youtube video in which 2 children berate professional NASCAR drivers about the process of being physically transformed into Cars in order to make tiny toys of their Carsonas. Oh, also we do a tiny Or-Engine story on The Iron Giant? It's

Episode 84: Parking Lots of Questions

The Ka-Chat ·

2021/02/08

Listen. This is an entire episode on parking. But like.... parking is important to cars! So what's up with that in Cars??? Somehow we manage to fill our time on that, and we do so by diving into their relationship with sleep, personal belongings, and property itself. We also do that by going on an extended Westworld analogy. So.... a pretty good episode, all told.

Episode 83: Harry Pott-Car

2021/02/01

Grab your Floo Powder, folks. We're going on a quick trip to the Potterverse. This week, we're knocking out all things Harry Potter, what it's like as a story in the Carsverse, what magic would be like, and we even throw a mini Or-Engine in there, just as a treat! So get your fill of chocolate frogs and Bertie Bott's Every Flavour Beans from the trolley, cause this time, Lucas and John solemnly swear they are up to no good.

Episode 82: Pixar Popcorn

The Ka-Chat ·

2021/01/25

My God. It finally happened. After almost two years of doing this podcast (not to mention the almost two years before that of talking about doing this podcast) Pixar has deemed fit to give us fresh, new Cars content. Of course... What they gave us were two shorts whose combined runtime totals at less than four minutes and are completely without dialogue. So we're really gonna have to reach for this one. Oh well! Join us as we discuss two brand new Cars shorts, Unparalleled Parking and Dancing With

Episode 81: Pix-Car Studios: Toy Car Story

2021/01/18

Oops! We made another mini-series. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ We didn't even mean to this time, though! We set out to discuss the Car-ified versions of other Pixar movies that are shown in the end credits of Cars, and had so much to say about Toy Car Story that we decided to revisit the others in a later episode. And BOY is there a lot to say about the Toy Car Story series, even if we only see two,

Get the Delorian ready everybody, cause we taking another trip back in time! That's right - the award-winning* mini series Moments in Hearse-tory is back for it's third installment, and we are tackling some big ones today. How did spoken language come to be, and much more importantly, how did written language happen period? In the Great Emu War, what were the Emu's? And last but not least.... what's up with this official piece of concept art depicting the American Revolution???

Episode 79: New Cars Revolutions

The Ka-Chat ·

2021/01/04

Look out folks, we're coming at you from 2021! To celebrate the need to buy a new calendar, we decided to both go through how we feel the Cars would celebrate the New Year, as well as setting a few New Cars Revolutions ourselves. (Like resolutions. This pun was a bit of a stretch.) And you'd be surprised, by the end of the episode, we've already accomplished one of the goals we set for ourselves. So grab some bubbly and come enjoy us bringing in the New Year four days late.
