The Kibbe and Friends Show
Internet automotive personalities Rob Kibbe (kind of famous-ish), Justin "Corndog" Cornette (less famous-ish) and producer Bernie McPartland (actually famous....in Dallas, TX) talk cars, funny movies, and give a fanboy review the Dukes of Hazzard TV series, episode-by-episode. If you grew up idolizing flying orange Dodge Chargers, ever climbed through your mom's station wagon window, or just like to laugh so hard Diet Coke comes out your nose, this is the show for you.

For the first time ever, the original team behind my Chevelle build all sat down together to revisit the journey from 2011–2013. This wasn't a "sponsored" build or a corporate project. It was a leap of faith between friends who believed we could pull off something big long before we knew how. We started ...

In this week's episode of The Kibbe & Friends Show, the crew kicks off the Christmas season with one of the most beloved holiday films of the modern era: Elf. Rob, Corndog, and Bernie dive deep into what makes this 2003 classic so timeless—from Jon Favreau's intentional "Rankin/Bass meets live-action" style, to the practical effects and forced-perspective tricks that give the movie its handmade, storybook charm. They break down eve...
Few movies capture the chaos, heart, and humor of the holidays quite like Planes, Trains, and Automobiles. Steve Martin's tightly wound Neal Page and John Candy's endlessly lovable Del Griffith deliver one of the greatest odd-couple road trips ever put on film — a journey packed with missed flights, broken-down cars, and moments that somehow make you laugh uncontrollably and tear up at the same time. It's loud, ridiculous, heartfel...

Our goal is to raise $3,000 by December 5th—and explain how Patreon plays a direct role in that push.

Thank you SO MUCH to those of...
It's one of the biggest months of the year — SEMA, MCACN, and Thanksgiving! In this episode, Rick Schmidt joins Rob to tackle the real questions everyone's asking: turkey, beef, or ham?
