We went over Sanjay's brief CyberTruck ownership experience, social media and kinda what it's done to hype level enthusiasts, the M5 being heavy (and why), and some touches of market strategy. This episode took place during my last week in Miami before moving to Tampa & my nephew was visiting before shipping off to college. A solid good time.Also, following this recording Sanjay took an impromptu trip to...2024-08-211h 43The Motor Culture Podcast@_Imran_arshad "never settle, Evolve" - #077This session features Imran Arshad of Evolve Automotive. A name synomous with BMW tuning for the past several years, and one that I have been a personal fan of since my E46/teenage years.

High speed situations, engineering and second hand knowledge that can only be absorbed through the tuning factories of Japan.

There's people who do the other, where the cars largely sit around and even while well kept, just stationary. Then there's those who don't; Jordan, for example. The caretaker of quite a few speed machines, namely in the darkest available shade of paint. The caretaker of the legendary R33 GT-R T-002 built by one of the industry leaders in automotive tuning; HKS. The fascination Jordan has with cars is awesome in itself, let alone that he's based out of a dese...2024-03-042h 02The Motor Culture Podcast@Rickyboada "Muscle Head" - #073I am so slow with the uploads, but theres a good reason. I moved to Miami to pursue a cool but challenging opportunity at..., you guessed it; RMC Miami. Now in Miami, life's been hectic to say the least. Moments to breath aren't easily found, juggling more than one gig at a time isn't for the faint of heart. It's all for the better. I am hit with a daily splash of imposter-syndrome however, I need to get over that. This is now life.

The direction of my life was altered a bit over the course of this year and I had to take a pause to focus, fix & adjust. A process that I am still knee deep in but well on the way. Even with just a handful of months off the air, I truly missed this shit. The nights preparing, the enlightenment, the unique stage upon which I get to know somebody new - or chat with one of my old friends. We're back, and it's about to get crazy during the c...2022-10-262h 03The Motor Culture Podcast@JannThaMan "GT Academy to Super GT+" - #070Welcome back friends.

This is no simple task as Jann beat out 90,000 entrants to secure his victory.

This was such a relatable episode for me, having a family background with several Honda models. Chances are, if you're apart of a brown family that was on the up n' up during the 90s then you too, can relate. The Phoenix based Tyson is somewhat of a declared Honda historian and currently sits on a lovley rotating collection of Honda/Acura models that evade us in regularity these days.

On this session we take a stroll into quite a few territories. FOR instance, will the cars we adorn - most of which are included in the surge of pricing be expensive, forever? Will BMW surprise us with the (G81) M3 touring in the USA? Toyota is taking the high road and ensuring that brand enthusiasts + are well fulfilled with their current and future array of sports offerings, widening to the U.S. market. Why aren't more manufacturers doing this? Long gone are the days of questioning whethe...2022-04-271h 56The Motor Culture Podcast@SCHAEFCHEN "Automotive Adventurer" - #066Hello all, and welcome to episode sixty-six featuring Schaefchen. A kind, very intelligent personality that called in from the mountains of Austria to talk cars with yours truly. This guy's a true talent as it comes to wheeling a vehicle through some endearing situations and as I recite on this session's intro, pause what you are doing and head to his IG to look for yourself. He provides a very unique angle indeed where his specialty is less about the mystique of the car, but more so about the ability along with his abilities.

This session was very enjoyable thanks to my boy Sean Troy of European Road & Racing. I came across Sean via social media in 2015, a year after I moved to Florida. He is a BMW afficionado like no other and that has yet to change. The owner of many iconic models of the brand, both past & present including his recent pickup; a Valencia Orange E82 1M. A legendary parts bin excercise by BMW of which Sean was pushing around town during our call!

Evan produces aero kits geared toward BMWs setup to slide & shit, it's a crazy world. You'll learn about specific considerations in drifting, my favorite part being the huge consideration for the setup at the front axles. One of our biggest topics of discussion was Evan's accident.

Our friendship started a few years ago when Instagram brought us together via some BMW related algorthym, thanks Zuck. At the time, he had a Hellrot E36 M3 & we hit a chord given his love of BMW (cars generally) & passion for visual arts. Both areas I can relate to. We have a long overdue conversation going over a few things included but not limited to the uprise of his company, projects, & of course- cars. Plenty of car talk.

We recorded this the night before our journey to Daytona for the 60th year of the Rolex 24. This was my 5th time, all while being an inaugural experience for Danny & Drew. The weekend started Thursday with Drew flying in from the DC area & Danny arriving from Miami with his Andial 993tt racer in tow. The guys & I really get into it about driving disciplines, preferences & general automotive related shit talk. The next day we had a journey on our hands which would consist of the previously mentioned 993tt, @rollinartworks 997.2 GT3, & my humble F56 JCW.

Tonight's episode features the homie Michael Barr, a super [JDM] enthusiast from the Tampa Bay area. We've known eachother in passing for a couple of years now so this was a great oppurtunity to chat, get to know one another. He showed up in a Bayside Blue (repaint) R32 GT-R fitted with a Do-Luck kit and an ultra set of Nismo wheels. The car sounded fucking fabulous. That was a nice suprise. We go over tons of shit including Barr's start into automotives & his past job at BMW as a product specialist. He's gone to great heights to build t...2022-01-231h 11The Motor Culture Podcast@mr_lan_evo "Rolling Guy" - #057LADIES & GENTS, Welcome back to an overdue episode of Motor Culture. This is your badly-planning host Imraan A Shameem, and its time for some podcasts. The last couple of months has been a tough time to get shit done, and that's saying the least. A lot has happened between business movement, & possibly being infected by Omicron (though never confirmed). Along with that, life is just moving & changing as it should! I have been diligently seeking out and scheduling individuals/groups of human beings that will continue to make Motor Culture the go-to automotive podcast, believe that. 2022-01-201h 34The Motor Culture Podcast@rowdydaoudy "Way back" - #056Welcome to episode fifty-six of MCP! This session features my boy Daoud, a spiritual motoring addict based in Ohio but with links throughout the country particularly here in Florida.

We were both 18, both hustling at AT&T at a time where the world was transitioning to the "smart phone" and killing it. He's honed a very simliar tuning & taste outlook to mine and it's kept us homies ever since...2021-12-232h 27The Motor Culture PodcastConversation Street feat. @Sanjaydotcom "Now in Color" - #3CWelcome back to the sub-series within the Motor Culture podcast, Conversation Street featuring brother from another, Sanjay Tohan. We're self titled masters of talk, talk about everything...talk about nothing. Today's chat about nothing was a series of niche subjects ranging from the re-popularity, resurgance of the station-wagon body style from the eyes of the manufacturer. To be crystal clear, not the enthusiasts, whom have had their wagon niche groups since before I was around. We then transistion into the topic of colors, what was & what is popular because of the populace. Is it cool to replicate an outfit you s...2021-12-141h 55The Motor Culture Podcast@mrm3man @3rdtakahashi "General Topic Forum" - #055Gents, ladies, welcome to number fifty-five of Motor Culture.

These boys are also equipped with automotive culture knowledge, with deep rooted opinions that have been built over the course of years, over a course of experiences. On this episode, we spin the ball and go from topic to topic, generally shit talking. It's a nice session in which we (non-intentionally) cover some niches in the auto community. This episode was recorded on-site at my house in Maryland which was also lovely. In person > remote, any day.

This is a great session coming to you with all credit to my boy, Ariel. A fella that has always been very interesting to me since first crossing paths on social media. By profession, he's in the Navy and works on an active aircraft carrier. That in itself is uber interesting but the other angle is his automotive side. He's always had cool, useful, and very personally styled cars which have been enlig...2021-11-262h 21The Motor Culture Podcast@German_Motor_Group "to E61 M5, or to E46 CSL today? - #053My friends, welcome to session number fifty-three of Motor Culture.

This episode is just fucking idealistic of what I imagined the podcast to be, to feel like by now; listening to it today made me REALLY feel that and I hope you guys do too, particularly with my OG audience that has seen the stream change from 0 to now. With that, I was invited to a small private kitchen plotted dinner with some pals at "Shadow Wagyu" here in Miami. By a fucking random coincidence, Ricky was com...2021-09-171h 39The Motor Culture Podcast@Tedward_ig "Ted Talk" - #051Tonight's episode features the man behind Tedward, Tom.

He has amassed a large following on YouTube and it's immediately apparent why that is.

Tonight my pal David and I have a lovely laid back chat about what we know best; automotives & imagery.

From motorsport photography and motivating factors to casual chill sessions, we cover a whole lot. He rolls around in a Melbourne Red E90 M3, and has had a plethora of random M cars both old and new and unusually, in no particular order (love that).

Tonight I have on Charles Wong out of Vancouver, BC-CN (my third international poddy). I've been a fan of Charles and his absolutely wild obsession with JDM sports cars with a polarizing eye always aimed at a GTR. The R34 GTR to be specific is his thing, and theres no shortage of experiences gained as he's anti-low mileage, and anti-sitting-the-fuck-around. We cover one of his R34 GTRs very throughly, I believe the one that represents his character and aura the most. It's a blue car built to Charl...2021-09-031h 04The Motor Culture Podcast@AMSAutowerks @Fish2556 "Boiler Room" - #047Welcome friends to a lovely episode 47. This was a dope conversation with Diogo from AMS Autowerks (NJ) and Fish from the Autobarn Imports (IL). I thought it'd be perfect to pair up the two since they've historically done business together and have become pals through it all. It's worth mentioning that my individual conversations with the two were fun in themselves, creating the perfect meshing for a conversation spanning a variety of topics. From random shop talk regarding both business fronts to VW's 'Dieselgate', to Fish buying an RS2 (whilst recording) to Diogo driving an Accord everyday lmfao, and PLE...2021-08-292h 51The Motor Culture Podcast@MannyFraga @Sanjaydotcom "Xanthophile" - #046Episode 46 is brought to you by the color, yellow. As a matter of fact as it turns out, if you are addicted or infatuated by the color yellow then you are considered a xanthophile. This session comes appropriately titled as there are 3 yellow Porsche's between the two guests featured. Manny Fraga, new pal whom I met at a wind down session at RMC Miami the same weekend that Sanjay picked up his Racing Yellow 991.2 turbo.

Episode forty four features my boy Danny, of RMC Miami. Last time we had a session, it was madness to say the least and while I thought it was a riot- we didn't get to focus on what we really wanted to chat about. This then was perfect. Light background noise from cars being moved around and setup for DRT, but trust that it's tolerable. We focus on a barrage of characteristics of Japanese tuning and theory behind why they do what...2021-08-222h 04The Motor Culture Podcast@directorlukeh "if you're a lazy creative or have bad vibes, maybe we won't be a good fit"- #043Ladies a gents, this is a special one for me. A filming legend from New Zealand but based in Japan, enriched by the [automotive] culture - Luke Huxham. This was a lovely conversation that stretched from Tampa to Tokyo crushing my previous record with one of my close friends from Canada ironically named Lucas lol. Back on topic, Luke is behind some of my favorite automotive films such as the Redbull-F40 ski slope climb, the Hakone turnpike run featuring a retired Z4 GT3 and Kawabata piloting the fuck out of a R35 over the most gorgeous geography. There is a ce...2021-08-102h 02The Motor Culture Podcast@MRK.RCNL "The illest" - #042Here it is, episode 42 featuring an automotive living legend- Mark Arcenal. This was a delightful converstaion with a fella I've long looked up to and luckily it went just as I'd imagined. Like the laid back lo-fi music that lines his life, Mark is a super chill - hyper automotively enlightened person. Now I've said this before and will say it as many times as its heard but pre-social media widespread movements of anykind are nothing short of fascinating. The factor of fascination is hard to fathom unless you were in the game before being able to key in a ha...2021-08-031h 03The Motor Culture PodcastConversation Street "Turbo Talk" feat. @Sanjaydotcom - #2CBack to back, I love it. Welcome to episode 2C of a special segment of the Motor Culture podcast which I coin as 'Conversation Street', a series of sessions accompanied by my younger brother from another; Sanjay Tohan or @Sanjaydotcom. This segment comes as a special one as a new vehicle has been acquired, a very special vehicle. A vehicle Sanjay has talked about for years over, which came along with a hell of an adventure in retreiving the 'Racing Yellow' sports-coupe. The yellow 2-door in question is a 2018 991.2 [Porsche] 911 Turbo. A sexy, efficient yet brutal machine it is. A quic...2021-07-311h 57The Motor Culture Podcast@AMSAutoWerks "Dream it. Build it. Race it." - #041Forty-One, a GREAT session featuring Diogo of the legendary NJ based, AMS Auto Werks. Known across the states, AMS has had their hand in some serious automotive dreamery. In this no-fucks-given chat, Diogo highlights his business strategies and the route he's taken to gain the noteriety in which AMS carries today. Going over the highs, and more uncommonly the lows - the brash reality of a one-stop shop inclusive of a top level auto body facility is really brought into light. As an East-Coaster I can truly appreciate Diogo's fast talking, fast thinking sensabilities and the absolute obsessive nature he e...2021-07-301h 26The Motor Culture Podcast@Brooklyn_Auto_Sales "A goal is a dream with a deadline" - #04040+ EPISODES IN!

Back in January I took a few days to myself and went to Miami to record some juicy content. I had the pleasure of recording with two, Miami based 'special car segment' automotive dealerships.

Will started @PTSRS with passion for special colors and specifications but also as a form of education for himself, and the viewing world. Dually carrying a strong passion for Porsche which is shared by millions across the globe, the popularity and support of the account skyrocketed.

This exceedingly overdue episode features my boy Danny, his father Peter, & their iconic place of business known as Real Muscle Car Miami or RMC Miami. First, I just want to say long before I considered these guys family - I was a big fan of their institution. The cars they offer along with their associated mental on-set is what drew me to the legendary Miami institution. Their revolving inventory always consists of some of the greatest put together street and track cars, of our time.

The former and latter counties are based in Maryland btw. There was something about those times that brings a smile to the face, my first insertion into the Hoco tuning atmosphere which was vividly different (at the time) to Moco auto culture.

This time Harry and I go over some H20i (2020) highlights, and the many negatives that arose this year. Including, but not limited to OCPD's overzealous policing + the sheer idiocy brought in by the modern fuckboy. The latter of which isn't supported by true H20i fans, like ourselves.
