K&F Show Summary:

Note: In honor of Valentine’s Day 2024 we gave Bernie the keys to the show and told him to make a re-run episode! Listen in for a rundown of whatever Valentine’s Day stuff that Bern came up with….which is probably super duper weird, but kind of adorable too. Following that is a re-broadcast of our review of “Cleetus Falls in Love” from KF Episode 252. Godspeed. -Kibbe and Corndog 

Poor Cleetus makes the mistake of being #MeToo’d by Daisy Dukes, and his heart has to pay the price until she finally confesses to using her sexuality for personal gain. Poor Cleetus. But, love know no boundaries – and just like Cleetus we all have to take the high road and go on to date a bank teller anyway. This episode features Sheriff Little and is the second episode after the shift to the wide push bar General Lee. Also noted in this episode, no-one suffered from food poisoning and was stricken with vomiting and diarrhea for 4 hours straight.

K&F Show #273: MOPARTY 2023 – Tony Angelo’s Flying 440!

Presented by Holley! This is a special edition of K&F and features a run down of everything we did at Holley Moparty 2023! Visit holley.com for more fun and details (and to shop for EFI!)

We came, we saw, we Mopartied! This event has become THE place for Mopar wackos with gather and enjoy all of the weirdness and greatness that Mopars bring. Its also a great place for people that love to thrash their cars on the dragstrip and autocross! We had a great time seeing and hanging out with listeners, as always. The only bummer of the whole trip is that it wasn’t long enough! We will feature several key interviews from the event on this week’s episode of The MuscleCar Place podcast.

This episode also features the one and only Tony Angelo. We all have known Tony’s escapades through his time with Motor Trend with Lucky Costa on Hot Rod Garage, and today he makes his living on his YouTube channel “StayTuned,” which you should subscribe to yesterday if you haven’t already.

He did make the event in his Dodge 440…..barely….and we were there to catch up and see what happened. We also learned from Tony just how badly Finnegan took the news when Corndog let him go from the podcast. No we feel worse. (Kibbe does. Corndog doesn’t. Bernie is indifferent, but happy to still not have to wear pants.)

K&F Show #271: Guitar Hero with Car Horns; Dukes Review S1E9 “Limo One is Missing”

Presented by Holley! Phase 3 of Kibbe and Friends is officially here, and Holley is back for more fun, foolishness, and flying orange Chargers!

BIG NEWS: The fall events at Holley are just around the corner and Holley MOPARTY is less than 60 days away. We’ll be there and you should be too! We are ONCE AGAIN the media partner for the General Lee jump, too!

Visit this website RIGHT NOW to get details and tickets: https://moparty.com. We will see you there!

K&F Show Summary: Finally – the political Dukes episode we’ve been waiting for! Kinda. If there was an episode that could combine Nathan Warren with Ben Jones portraying Cooter, this would be it. Cooter – with God’s blessed skills – steals President Jimmy Carter’s car.Bo and Luke get him out of it, but not before using their smoking hot cousin to position herself as a faux-prostitute to distract the bad guys. Who are the bad guys in this one you ask? Boss Hogg – who has a car theft and chop shop ring. And Boss thinks his guys stole the car and wants it recovered to meet Jimmy Carter personally, but in the end it’s Uncle Jesse that gets the call of thanks from the Oval Office. And before the episode is over we will once and for all know whether Boss and Uncle Jesse are Republicans or Democrats. The 2024 Presidential race had nothing on this!

9 Dogs.

KF Show Summary: If there were ever an episode where I learned the love of a good car, it was this! Luke gets hypnotized into selling the General Lee so that Boss can have it demolished (i.e. murdered) and out of his life, once and for all. And as the smartest and best shot Duke boy….he does what no one else could do; not Boss, Rosco, Uncle Jesse, the President of the United States, or even Bo…..he gets rid of the General. And by doing so unknowingly sentences the General to death. And when it looks like the General is indeed doomed, Cooter without hesitation gambles his life to get the General back – and wins. And then Luke comes to his senses. And then he without hesitation gambles his life to save the General. And wins. All to save the life of a car….that as we know is just an inanimate object, but for some reason seems as alive to us as our dog. We’ve all had a car or a truck that we knew we loved and that loved us back. This episode sends that home.This is also the episode that we see the new look of the General that will last until the show ends. 10 Dogs.

K&F Show #260: The OG Corndog Interview (circa 2014) – All the Screen Used General Lee’s Left!

Presented with Holley! https://www.holley.com

Normally our presentation for Holley features a kick-ass Holley event or a kick-ass Holley speed part, but in this episode we’d like to thank a kick-ass Holley person who (as of May 5) will be moving on to newer endeavors. Specifically, we’d like to publicly acknowledge and thank Bryan McTaggart for the time we’ve been able to work together. Bryan is one of the many voices at Holley that you’ve certainly read on MotorLife, but his collaboration with US specifically over the years has been pretty epic. If you like flying orange Chargers, know that you have a friend in Bryan too. Thanks, Bryan!

Check out the brand new KF Show Shirt! It’s the CNH 320 Edition: https://teechip.com/themusclecarplaceIn this KF episode, kick back to hear a feature interview that will tickle the ear drums and whatever the thing is that makes that “ASMR” stuff so brain-tingly appealing. Specifically, in this one we are re-playing the very first “OG” discussion between Kibbe and Corndog, circa 2014. It was a feature interview on The MuscleCar Place back during a simpler time, and a time when young Corndog was just stretching his might of General Lee knowledge into the internetspehere. Kibbe tracked him down due to his mighty flexing of knowledge on Dukes of Hazzard forums and had to know how this guy knew so much about the General Lee.

Long story short, it was this interview that launched the era of Dukes of Hazzard nerdlandia into The MuscleCar Place podcast network in a permanent way. The KF Show as we know if today (and Kibbe Lee) are all a result!

Also….we couldn’t record a “regular” show this week and had to pun next week. We needed to run something….so here ya go. The Bernie on the News is new and fun though, and thanks to Jason Roberts for hanging out with Bernie last week.

Enjoy!

Check out the brand new KF Show Shirt! It’s the CNH 320 Edition: https://teechip.com/themusclecarplaceKF Show Summary: Less than one year into this wonderful show this episode features fashion-model twin sisters who drive a semi, the most wacky on screen kissing I’ve ever seen, lady car strippers, intense in car footage of drifting, high-speed 180’s so beautiful you’ll cry, and then General Lee configured as a trophy truck. This is the episode that proves you can’t make a show like this anymore but are so glad they could then, blondes do have more fun, and it ends with a team of beautiful bad guy women being pulled to prison – in chains – on foot – behind the offroad General Lee. And then back to the twins in a semi. The End. Rating: 9 Corndogs!

K&F Show #245: Oldsmobiles, Leg Lamps, and BB Guns! Movie Review: “A Christmas Story”

We are kicking off the Christmas season with a 3-week long Holiday Trifecta! This week we’ll re-air our 2019 review of “A Christmas Story,” the top choice of our man Corndog for Christmas Americana. Next week we’ll review the new “A Christmas Story Christmas” sequel movie, and the week after that will be a full run down of the one and only Dukes of Hazzard Christmas epidote: The Great Santa Clause Chase!

If you haven’t yet joined us on Patreon, please consider it – if just for this month. We’re making a mad dash to have a great donation to Toys for Tots on on Dec 16.  Links are below to sign up! http://www.patreon.com/kfshow.

Presented with Holley! We’re happy to let you know that Holley is doing another amazing engine giveaway but you only have until Dec 5, 2022 to get signed up for it! This time it’s the latest and greatest LT motor filled with some of the best parts money can buy, including a forged rotating assembly that brings displacement to 427 cubic inches, Mast Motorsports Black Label cylinder heads, a custom ground camshaft, and as many Holley parts as we could throw at it. All of this will be controlled by a Holley Terminator X EFI system, making it capable of up to 700 horsepower. https://www.holley.com/win/ltenginesweepstakes/

Movie Notes: If there was one movie to review that best summed up the mind of kid-dom at Christmas it definitely has to be A Christmas Story! The tale of Ralphie Parker and his desire for a Red Ryder BB gun is ingrained in Americana, thanks in part to the 24-hour marathon on the Turner Broadcast networks beginning in the late 1990’s. It’s set in the late 1930’s and is laid over with Jean Shephard’s voice telling the tale of his youth. From fighting bullies with green teeth, to being tricked into radio commercials for Ovaltine, to his old man’s desire for a MAJOR AWARD, this movie has it all and never gets old. There are even old cars, a tongue stuck to a frozen pole, and a duck that gets his head cut off.  PERFECT 10 LITTLE DEBBIE CHRISTMAS TREE RATING.

K&F Show #242: The Thanksgiving K-Cars Movie Review – Planes, Trains and Automobiles!

Movie Review: Planes, Trains, and Automobiles!

The KF Show is off at SEMA 2022 this week! That’s good news though, because we’ll come back with plenty of stories and content for you. In the mean time we are kicking off the month of November with a “re-run” of our famous review of Planes, Trains, and Automobiles! 

So here’s the thing – when it comes to a Thanksgiving themed highly quotable slapstick-yet-tearjerker movie to review there’s really only one that is worthy of doing so for: Planes, Trains & Automobiles. Let’s admit it – John Hughes plus Steve Martin plus John Candy equals perfection. And yes, before you even say it, we have reviewed this movie years before with Finnegan (Episode 51) in fact. And yes…it was so funny then that, like this movie, it’s worth a repeat of because it’s as timeless as it gets….plus the re-enactment of the “you play with your balls” scene was pretty epic!

Better yet….the entire second hour on Patreon (www.patreon.com/kfshow) does a deeper dive on the car, the quotes, the unaired plot points that explained so much more, and another movie re-enactment of the most famous scene in the movie. You know the one….those aren’t pillows!

Kick back and enjoy – and have a Happy Thanksgiving!
