Hour 2: Sicilian Souls and Sardinian Loners | 12-19-25

Dive into a late-night mix of muscle car nostalgia, global conspiracies, and the fascinating world of linguistic nuances. Lionel explores why manual transmissions are a lost art, the hilarious (and potentially ghostly) mistranslations of Coca-Cola in China, and the "dangerous" hidden meanings of car names like the Ford Pinto. Between debating hit squads and the cultural differences between Sicily and Sardinia, Lionel celebrates the unsung heroism of sanitation workers and the revolutionary history of the indoor toilet. It is a fast-paced, informative journey through listener stories, "dashboard fails," and the "scholarly" side of verbal aggression.
