Auto Off Topic

Auto Off Topic is a weekly podcast where we talk cars, adventures with cars or anything that might be related to cars. We’ll even have the occasional guest.We’ll share the highs and lows of old car/project car ownership. We’ll tell cautionary tales about rusty bolts, blown head gaskets, snapped timing belts, spun bearings, janky wiring and how we fixed them. When not wrenching, we enjoy back road driving and our local Cars and Coffee. The hosts Brad DeSantis and Andrew Pascarella are two car enthusiasts who have been best friends for over 30 years. Auto Off Topic is based in Peabody Ma and Phoenix Az. Our closing song is part of ”Z/28” is graciously provided by the band Z/28.

Euphoric Driving Experience

Friday Jan 05, 2024

Friday Jan 05, 2024

OK lets kick off 2024 with some small project car talk. We're pumped for the Rolex 24 hour race. We discuss how the same amount of time has passed between 1980 and 1917 as 1980 to 2023, which is wrong, it's actually 1937 to 1980. Hey it was late and we're bad at math, I mean we do a podcast about old cars. However we had a great game of Craig Craig don't tell me.
