These folks need a history lesson

I just love this podcast and there YouTube channel

It pains me to write this but at this point it feels like this is all I can do to voice my concerns. The big three and past gas have been my go to favorite podcasts for the past year. I really enjoyed the banter, jokes and knowledge that the hosts James, Nolan and Joe had. However, since James has left donut, both podcasts have dropped in quality drastically. Though not their faults, the guests they’ve had on recently have been terrible, with the exception of Jimmy and Justin. The guests are awkward and clunky, and the chemistry is notably bad. It hurts to say since I believe both Joe and Nolan care about these podcasts, but the effort definitely has been lacking. I’ve gone from being a weekly listener, to having to change the podcast after 5 minutes due to how weird the podcast has become. When I listen now, all I hear is awkward conversations and bad jokes and very little knowledge about the car industry. My only recommendation/want would be to have consistent hosts, such as Nolan, Joe, Jimmy, or Justin. Unfortunately, donut media has one foot in the grave, with the mass exodus of key hosts, and it is probably only a matter of time before both Joe and Nolan leave as well.

I listen to past gas every time it comes out and my other favorite podcast is the big three so go listen to both

Stupid complaints I know. I want the best for the success of the pod and channel but there are a lot of ads compared to the past. And I get it you want more money to make it all worth but some are 2min long and every 10 min. First world problems I know. Other than that it’s a great pod.

Listened to almost every episode and will revisit many again! I love this show and keep up the good work. Donut is not a great as it once was since the Kentucky cobra is gone but still love you guys 👍👍👍

Cyber truck. Please get rid of the Cyber truck!

I absolutely love this podcast, but it’s sad to see one of Donut’s greatest hosts go. James will be missed. Absolute legend🫡🫡😭😭💔💔😭😭😭 I guess we’ll never know if he got his son back.

I have been listening to this podcast since the first episode aired several years ago. I’ve always enjoyed and looked forward to each weeks episode. Donut helped me through Covid more than I even realized. But over the past couple of months, they have lost their best writers and hosts. But when the Kentucky Cobra slithered off, that was the final straw. The executive should not make all the money then tell the employees to do more with less. Although Nolan is still there, and he’s wonderful, it feels like the heart is gone.

You guys rock . Here in Jax Beach Fl there is a Medical Marijuana store called Subburn Cannibis . Yes it’s the same guys that you talked about . Thought you like to know !!

I still listen every week but there is a James sized hole in my life. We’ll never know if he ever got his son back

I started from the beginning currently on Mickey Thompson, only gripe so far is James voice levels, seems to trail off/moves away from the mic.

I really enjoy donut media on YouTube, and normally am not a stickler on pronunciations but hearing them mispronounce a highly anticipated drifting persona “Ueo” as “Yoo-E-OH” in the introduction was just very disrespectful imo for such a huge car enthusiast channel. I couldn’t finish it.

“The Velvet revolver of cars” is one of the greatest statements I’ve ever heard. Started working on my truck about 4 years ago w a friend and started getting into car culture since then. Never really watched much YouTube either and wanted to get some car knowledge so I found this cast and then realized it was donut media who is only really heard about. Love the content and info and goofs and gafs.

This podcast is a great way to learn about automotive history and laugh at the same time. My only criticism would be for James to dial it back a little. He’s a funny guy, but the tangents and jokes can go on way too long sometimes.

These giggly boys really make great content here and on the world wide web. Thanks doNUTS!

Good info with perfect amount of jokes Love this podcast

Hey guys, You guys should cover the crazy story of Hamiltons rookie year and his title fight with Alonso, one of the craziest f1 stories out there, and that same year there team mclaren was caught cheating and received the biggest fine ever dished out in sports. It’s an incredible story and I would love to hear you guys tell it!

Love the Donut Guys it’s very interesting and informative and funny. I do however have a gripe with the ads played during the podcast. Specifically Angi and the amount it’s played. Way way way tooo much!

This is the best pod cast I love to listen and love your you tube channel aswell keep up the amazing work guys

🤫🧏‍♂️

Was a little astounded to see the amount of dislike in the reviews but there’s too many people on Earth to please us all. Really enjoy the podcast keeps me entertained while at work, the bits & tangents are great it’s not just a bunch of facts thrown in your face, you get a few laughs or sometimes a bit of personal connection with the hosts. My suggestion to the folks who aren’t a fan due to that is to open a book & research the “facts” you seek so badly as the creators of this podcast have!

Super funny. love the youtube channel as well. #buff horses Why y'all hating, if you want a dry ,no humor podcast that just tells a story, your looking for a book.

Do these guys have any idea how high they sound? Just an awful podcast. Unbearable conversation.

These guys don’t deserve this hate bro😭 So what there’s a whole bunch of ads, u can skip through them. How else can they make money?😭 And with the woman laughing in the back, Womp Womp, let her laugh in piece 💀

A fabulous example of the stopping power of a group of blithering idiots who in just a few short minutes can take what should have been an excellent topic and grind it quickly to an unlistenable mass of tangents and uninformed noise that provides little information and no entertainment. It did however induce my first ever review of a podcast so I guess it has that going for it!

None better

I love this show. Automotive history is a fantastic idea for a show and leaves us with a huge catalog of awesome episodes. Keep it up guys!

James isn’t funny. He flat out isn’t. Every time he opens his mouth to discharge something he thinks is funny, he derails the episode and ruins the tone of the whole thing. You can tell Nolan works hard to research topics and cares about what he’s doing but James brings the whole thing to a grinding halt. It’s a comedy podcast that isn’t remotely funny basically, and only marginally useful if you’re trying to learn something and willing to put up with the hyena laughs and constantly repeating jokes.

I really wanted to like this, but the ratio of dumb frat boy to car info is unbearable.

The most annoying part about this show is the woman who keeps laughing in the background, some good content, but the F1 stuff has really played out.

Starts with 5 minutes of ads, before a short intro, followed by 5 more minutes of ads. Then 5 minutes of ads ever 10 minutes after that. Feels like they’re just burning time between ad reads.

I LOVE all of their content. I have watched their YouTube channel since 2020, and listen to the podcast every night now. Thank you guys.

Love the show along with DRS. How about a show about E.J. Potter from Michigan?

In the slim chance this is is seen I would just like to say that the stories are awesome and I love all the jokes and humor that go on. Also the Donut YouTube is just as awesome. Go donut, Mo Powa BABY!!

Interesting stories, 5/5 performers, funny banters. The only negative point of this show is tons and tons of annoying ads throughout the podcast.

Quality show with even more quality hosts. Thanks for doing what y’all do at Donut. 🤘🏻

Go past gas

Love this podcast, hosts are the bomb, really to life the stories they tell. Personally enjoy all the accents and voices they do for characters in the stories.

I love these guys! I watch them as much as I can on youtube. #MOPOWAHBBABEH

I have listened to almost every episode of past gas and I truly love the show. I have learned so much from the stories told here and I also find it very entertaining! I have one suggestion though, 30 second limit to James tangents, as they tend to lose their comedic value after that.

Slug nation represent

good content, dumb hosts. gigley guys making stupid jokes. the content is good but 1/3 is these dumb guys.

I am a fan of history, cars, and comedy. Which all three you encase perfectly in the podcast

I’m a car enthusiast and never really cared about other stuff on racing but appreciate the Donut Media guys being so informative and enthusiastic with their podcast! #MOPOWAHBABEH

I’m a truck driver so podcasts are my life. I deliver cars to auctions and have always loved cars. The ‘90 model 300ZX is my dream car. I consume and love all of your content. I love that you are in forza 5. Keep it up guys

Hey guys I absolutely LOVE YOUR PODCAST it teaches me new stuff all the time I LOOOOVVVVEEEE cars there my most favorite thing. I just have one request can y’all stop dropping the f bombs? I don’t know if you guys have noticed but some of the swear words are bleeped out and some aren’t. We’ll you guys have a good day. MO POWA BABEH!!!!!!!

Very informative, eagerly wait for each new episode

Recently they just play to the annoying person laughing in the back of the studio. Old episodes are good, new ones not so much.

Very entertaining and the guys are hilarious!
