61. Music Maek Brain Go Brrrrrrrr

Mon, 09 Dec 2024 05:01:14 GMT

This week we asked our Instagram following a question that ended up being completely unrelated to the topic we discussed. We talk about music in this episode.

No the Thermostat is not considered a Go-fast part. Motorcycling through Italy and comparing a AR bolt to an axle half shaft ahoy on this episode of Flag Time!

57. This is an Automotive Service Podcast*. Allegedly.

Mon, 04 Nov 2024 05:00:50 GMT

*That talks alot about not that.

You know what you're getting into at this point. If not, if this is your first episode. What an introduction. Welcome to the dumbness. You're not gonna find technical discussions about auto repair even when were talking about exactly that. We might be Mechanics/Technicians, but what were not is professional in any way. Probably for the best. This week on Flag Time, the episode that made Serrated cry laugh while recording and also editing it.

56. Get Mad At Companies, Not Co-workers

Mon, 28 Oct 2024 04:00:52 GMT

Misdirected anger is more worthless than decaffeinated espresso. Focus that energy towards something more productive. Something might actually change when you do that. Weird how that works. Anyway, we got another random story episode for you this week. Is the title related to current events? Probably. Some of y'all might be tuning in cuz of misinformation going around concerning one of the hosts. Tune in and learn a thing maybe, this week on Flag Time.

Fun fact: they were in the same competitive online team in AC6 back in the 2009-2012 time frame. The stories of this team still keeping in touch to this day can be heard here. Including the story of what the Ace Combat Community did for Serrated back during a dark time. Reminiscing and video games, this week on Flag Time!

53. A Medium Size Fast Food Meal Should Not Be $13

Mon, 30 Sep 2024 04:01:22 GMT

Pixy wanted this episode to be the Distractible ripoff episode. So that's what we do for the first half. Then we complain about how expensive stuff is for no reason other than to keep the lifestyles of the corporate higher ups afloat. "The market decides the prices" Yeah the market can shove an extra large bad dragon up its ween. Anyway, check out the video version of this episode on our Patreon! Capitalism! This week on Flag Time!

This extended episode also includes a special cameo of one of our past guests. Yet another episode where things go everywhere this week on Flag Time

51. Memories and Gaming

Mon, 16 Sep 2024 04:00:45 GMT

We asked our Patreon and our Instagram two separate questions cuz we inconsistent like that. The Paid members got to answer a thought provoking question while the Instagram got to brag about which game they be gooder than everyone at. Pretty much the result of one medium having a larger character count for responses than the other. hee hoo.

Anyway, this episode of Flag Time is brought to you specifically by the Modern Warfare 3 (2011) SMAW that is wielded by Serrated in Hardcore TDM that he will shoot at you even if you're standing right next to him. It is also brought to you by an Ace Combat 6 F-22 Raptor fitted with QAAM's piloted by Serrated who is pressing B every 5 seconds while locked onto you.

...Serrated what the hell man.

50. Know Your Worth pt. 2

Mon, 09 Sep 2024 04:00:44 GMT

If you're fed up, stop dealing with it. You are one decision away from making your situation better. Nothing is stopping you from making that decision, like actually. Go out there and grab that shit cuz you are worth more than what your current situation claims you are.

Vague inspirational messages aside, if you're working somewhere that just drains you, nothing is making you stay. 2/3rds of the hosts of this show have left toxic workplaces very recently which is what we talk about this episode. Improved moods and decreased gas expenditures this week on Flag Time!

49. How Did We Get Zack Klapman On This Show?

Mon, 02 Sep 2024 04:00:41 GMT

Zack Klapman from "The Smoking Tire" joins the shidhead trio of mechanics to talk about making automotive content on the internet and what goes into that. We also talk about whether we're genuinely happy, what its like having a high profile guest on a podcast you produce, and inclusivity. All while one of the hosts has top level ADHD distractions. Just take a wild guess who that might be.

Go listen to The Smoking Tire if you don't already. It's an gud show.

48. Automotive News Kinda Maybe Almost

Mon, 26 Aug 2024 04:00:53 GMT

This episode of Flag Time has the three headasses pick a recent automotive news article to discuss. As you're aware by now by the tagline of this show, this was barely talked about. Enjoy them attempting to stay on topic for as long as possible, however futile that may be.

47. Friendly or Lone Wolf?

Mon, 19 Aug 2024 04:01:38 GMT

There are countless influencers on social media that will say to keep to yourself in the work place and don't share too much information. We feel like environments that require that kind of mindset are toxic and not worth the trouble. So we asked our listeners of this automotive-service-but-not-really podcast what they do concerning that subject. Are you friendly in the shop or do you keep to yourself and why? These three professional yappers discuss this and many other work related things in this weeks episode of Flag Time.

46. Blue Cheese = Pureed House Ants

Mon, 12 Aug 2024 09:51:42 GMT

Tapinoma sessile. They are a species of house ant that is documented to have a pungent odor when crushed. The odor has been compared to rotten coconut, rancid butter, or blue cheese. Which begs two questions. Why does blue cheese smell like rotten coconut and rancid butter? And more importantly, what is wrong with people who actually like blue cheese? It's got mold in it for gods sake. This week on Flag Time, we discuss this and other things cuz Serrated forgot to ask our listeners a question. We hope this ruins blue cheese for you.

45. Ay Em Ay or something iunno

Mon, 05 Aug 2024 04:01:06 GMT

We told our listeners to ask us anything they wanted to ask us. Turns out it was alot. This episode is nearly two hours long wtf. Anyway. Enjoy this extended episode of Flag Time cuz wow

44. Why'd You Name It That?

Mon, 22 Jul 2024 04:00:36 GMT

This week we asked "What was your favorite vehicle you've ever piloted?". Turns out yall have navigated some cool stuff. Some cooler than others. Anyway, yet another good ol episode of Flag Time for ya.

42. ASE? What?

Mon, 15 Jul 2024 04:00:54 GMT

Technician A states that listening to Flag Time can extend life expectancy. Technician B states that 30 minutes of uninterrupted Flag Time exposure can damage neurons. Who is correct? A? B? Both? or Neither?

We asked our listeners for the dumbest ASE style questions they could think up. They definitely delivered. Confusion ahoy on this episode of Flag Time!

41. Cars, Lightly Roasted

Mon, 08 Jul 2024 04:00:48 GMT

We were supposed to be pure haters to whatever cars were mentioned but it ended up being just a light roasting session almost. Diluted Haterade on this episode of Flag Time where we talk about common problems that cars have.

40. Forty Episodes Already Dang

Mon, 01 Jul 2024 04:00:35 GMT

Attempting a weekly upload schedule while also having a full time mechanic job is hard. Which is why were on Episode 40 instead of like 67, which is how many weeks old this podcast is. But were back to weekly episodes now cuz we've figured some stuff out. Happy 40th episode everyone

38. Each Shop Is Its Own Universe

Mon, 10 Jun 2024 04:00:47 GMT

The differences between one shop to another can be insane. They all have their similarities, yes. But one built in 1960 cant be compared to one built last week. Plus all of the different owners and managers dictating how draining or not it is to all of the shop's employee's mental health. That cant be understated. Anyway, the difference between all the shops we've worked at is the topic for todays episode. Also Pixy cant describe objects to save his life omg.

37. s h i d b o x

Mon, 27 May 2024 04:00:38 GMT

The question we asked our listeners for this episode was "What makes a good shitbox?". Little did we know that a large majority would take the term literally. Y'all are gross. Anyway enjoy this haphazard episode of Flag Time as it goes everywhere. oh my god its on the ceiling.

36. Motorcycles are cool too

Mon, 13 May 2024 04:01:08 GMT

Mon, 29 Apr 2024 04:00:54 GMT

In this episode of Flag Time, the main topic is our favorite automotive memes. No were not already running out of topics. Yes were an automotive service podcast. No you don't have to be miserable to be a mechanic. You just gotta be a bit nutso in the head. Which is why ur here probably. Enjoy this weeks episode ya walking ball of chaos energy.

33. Raecor

Mon, 01 Apr 2024 04:01:01 GMT

32. The Mr. Regular Episode

Mon, 18 Mar 2024 04:00:55 GMT
