Theme: A freewheeling, irreverent mix of car talk, classic rock, workplace dramas, and American life—full of banter, real listener calls, and wild stories that push the edge of FCC decency.
Overview
John Clay Wolfe and his crew bring another raucous Saturday morning. The main thread combines the show’s signature car-buying live action—real listeners, real offers, real banter—with stories about workplace mishap (“Man Bun vs. Lieutenant Dan”), nostalgia about classic rock and youth, sports talk, and plenty of Texas attitude. Recurring bits (like the “Get you some, b*tch!” catchphrase) endlessly surface as the team and callers riff on everything from gonorrhea to racing Demons to family drama. The episode’s through-line: Keep it fun, sometimes wild, and definitely unpredictable.
MAIN SEGMENTS AND DISCUSSION POINTS
1. Car Culture and Live On-Air Appraisals
-
Just about every car you can imagine (Corvettes, Mustangs, Demons, Wranglers, old trucks, Volvos…) gets discussed, appraised, and occasionally trashed.
-
Listeners call in trying to sell cars—John gives quick, often blunt offers, making the car-selling process sound easy, immediate, and fun.
- “Go to givemethevin.com, load it up, and let’s get it bought!” - John Clay Wolfe [07:55]
-
Seasonal trends: Convertibles and "sex cars" (Corvettes, Wranglers, CTS-Vs) are in demand in spring.
-
Car-mania and market insights: John and crew comment on spikes and drops in market values (e.g., the Dodge Demon’s price trajectory, value drops in diesel trucks).
Notable Quotes:
- “Sex runs the world. And a man right now is thinking about his summertime love. So he’s buying Corvettes, Porsches, sports cars. Sexual appealing. Not sexual healing, sexual appealing.” – John Clay Wolfe [94:00]
2. Givemethevin.com Bow and Jim Bash & Classic Rock Nostalgia (Party and Music)
- Promotion of the upcoming Bow and Jim Bash headlined by Styx, Joan Jett and the Blackhearts, and Tesla.
- The team debates which acts deserve more hype, especially Tesla (“Tesla rocks my lame ass” – John [19:04]).
- Wistful reminiscing about favorite bands, albums bought as kids, and the real role of classic rock in their youth.
- Listeners interact with music trivia, correcting or being corrected on rock facts (“It is Ariel Speedwagon.” “No, it’s Emmylou Harris!” [63:58]).
Notable Quotes:
- “Joan Jett is, I think, really underrated, especially for a female rocker.” – Crew [03:18]

3. The “Man Bun vs. Lieutenant Dan” Saga: Workplace Meltdown
- Centerpiece Story: A new hire ("Man Bun") is on a tryout in GIVEMETHEVIN’s buyer division. He quickly becomes a disaster—skipping work, allegedly poaching customers, being generally “weird,” and eventually getting into a blow-up with a respected, one-legged employee ("Lieutenant Dan"), threatening to "take your other effing leg."
- The show plays real (censored) audio from the confrontation, making it both hilarious and cringe-worthy.
- Crowd-sourcing memes for this tale—listeners are invited to submit their best “Man Bun vs. Lieutenant Dan: Fight Night” posters for NASCAR tickets. [49:00, 65:38]
- John weaves the escalating drama through the show for maximum comedy, ultimately cementing “Get you some, b*tch!” as a show catchphrase. [44:22, 46:24]
Notable Quotes:
- “Man Bun gave him an excuse to kill him...I was like, oh no, Lieutenant Dan’s gonna kill Man Bun. This is gonna be bad.” – John Clay Wolfe [42:05]
- “Get you some, b*tch!” – The new in-house meme, repeatedly played and referenced [44:24, 46:24, 53:06]
4. Rock and Roll, Sex, and Youthful Hijinks
- Amusing, sometimes risqué stories: first crushes, awkward childhood romance, small-town misadventures.
- Self-deprecating tales of “accidentally fooling around with my cousin” and old-school discipline.
- Side barbs about Oklahoma’s “family tree” (incest) reputation, made funny with real-life anecdotes. [151:01]
5. Listener Calls: Selling Cars, Telling Stories, and More
- Real people call in to get offers and share their own tales—some wild:
- Mechanic and car-maintenance tips from "Puerto Rican Norm" (e.g., why your “check engine” light might be on [83:15]).
- Strip Club DJ from Louisiana describes a medical mishap (hydrocele, vasectomy gone bad, “scrotum popped like a zit”).
- Randy the Chipmunk checks in with animal kingdom gossip and VFW drama (attempting to confront a "polecat" over Facebook threats).
- Many calls end with John giving rapid car offers and telling everyone to “get you some.”
6. “White, Black, Latino, or Other”: Streetwise Game Show
- DJ Pre-K hosts a recurring bit where the team guesses the ethnicity of a character in a news story, based on details of their (often criminal) antics.
- This week: a drunk Arizona bride is cuffed at her own wedding—crew debates whether she’s “white with vodka,” "Hispanic with tequila," or "black with Henny," before the answer is revealed.
Notable Quotes:
- “Vodka is a pre-event drink. Tequila’s a post-event.” – JD [79:12]
7. Sports and Celebrity Skewering

8. Miscellaneous Mayhem and American Life
- Attitude toward “FCC boundaries”—in-jokes about what will or won’t get them fined.
- PSA-style tips about car-related scams, fix-its, and how not to be cheated.
- Cheech & Chong–styled song about gonorrhea: “Stupid old me, I forgot to wrap my wiener...” [133:54]
- Lively debates on gun laws, school safety (“bucket of rocks” defense), and political rumblings (Rush Limbaugh calls in, sort of).
