Stick To Cars

Hard Parking with Jhae Pfenning

EP240

Jhae reflects on a recent vacation to Minnesota and how his family has become even smaller since the passing of his father in 2020, emphasizing the value of spending time with loved ones. The latest podcast review suggesting they "stick to cars," and how this feedback as an opportunity for improvement and learning but also how the Dan Lebatard Show with Stugotz inspired Hard Parking so a review asking the show to "stick to cars" is almost a compliment.

Jhae defends the content of this podcast, which includes a mix of automotive topics and other interests, and explains the approach to covering various subjects based on their curiosity and audience feedback. Jhae reviews a 2023 rental Subaru Outback, noting its features and their mixed feelings about it, emphasizing its practicality but not being a preferred choice. Southwest Airlines is shifting away from its open seating policy to a reserved seating system starting possibly in January, which may address their current struggles. Jhae expresses frustration with Southwest's check-in process, which requires prompt action to secure a good boarding position, and recounts a recent experience where they ended up in less desirable seats despite their efforts. Southwest's business class upgrade as overpriced and share their relief at improving their seating situation on the return flight.

Jhae reviews Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005), finding Johnny Depp's portrayal of Willy Wonka odd and the film a strange but enjoyable remake. They also watched Breathe (2023) but found it disappointing, citing poor acting and a lack of tension. Did you know the stunts and practical effects of the Fast and Furious movies, revealing that many stunts were done with real cars rather than CGI.
