Curb and Canyon: A Porsche Podcast
Welcome to Curb and Canyon – a podcast for Porsche enthusiasts BY Porsche enthusiasts. A collaboration between Porsche tragics, Andy Gaunt of ‘Last Rasp’ and James McGrath of ‘Auto Amateur’, Curb and Canyon is all about the lifestyle choice that is Porsche ownership. We’re not experts, we’re mates having a laugh about owning and driving these great cars, the roads we’ve driven, the upgrades we’ve made, the mods we’ve messed up and the great people we’ve met along the way. We want the world to know how awesome it is to own a car with the Porsche crest on the hood! New episodes dropping weekly with regular guests and panelists from across the Porsche world.

IS THIS THE END OF PORSCHE?! THE END OF CURB & CANYON?!
Okay… we dropped the ball and completely missed June. But we’re back—and apparently making up for lost time by questioning absolutely everything.
James nearly sold his 991. Andy is flirting with selling his 964. One of us has been test-driving potential replacements, so naturally we play “Guess the New Car.”
Meanwhile,...
Porsche has released a new update on its finances and business strategy and, somehow, managed to talk about Porsche without really talking about cars. Bold move. So naturally, James and Andy are here to overreact responsibly.
This month on Curb and Canyon, we dig into Porsche’s latest corporate brain dump: what it says, what it doesn’t say, and whether anyone in Stuttgart remembered that the wh...
Ear Muffs. You've been warned! We're often a little swear'y here at Curb and Canyon but in this episode we're not holding back. James gives us his views on the recent launch of the convertible GT3 (it's hard to type that let alone talk about it), Andy launches into a segment on a term that gets thrown around inappropriately and inaccurately by many Porsche owners and both get rather vocal about the rumore...
Welcome back to Curb and Canyon! The podcast for Porsche enthusiasts made by Porsche enthusiasts who love talk all things Stuttgart and don't mind getting a little swear'y as they do it - but then what do you expect when you give an Australian and a Brit their own show and just let them have it...?!
Join us in this episode where we talk about a recent guest spot we enjoyed on '9 Werks Radio', the Por...
Andy and James close out the year with a Christmas cracker of an episode covering everything from the recent bombshell news of Porsche's financial problems to mods, maintenance, Andy's recent Alpine Range Rally #12 road tour and James' recent tours of the Black Hills and the Smoky Mountains. James talks about the conclusion of his 991's sports exhaust modifications while Andy talks about the most recent b...
Andy and James dive into a candid discussion about Porsche's new limited-edition models, the ‘Spirit 70’ edition specifically, DIY maintenance challenges, and the joy of mountain road driving.
• Critical analysis of the new Porsche 911 Spirit 70, questioning its price tag and cabriolet configuration
• Celebration of the 992.2 GT3's impressive Nürburgring lap time with a manual transm...
The perfect sports car should look incredible, handle with precision, and sound like it means business—but do modern Porsches deliver on that final criterion? In this episode, Andy questions why a Cayenne GTS sounds more aggressive and exciting than the flagship 911, sparking a debate about whether sound is even essential to the sports car experience.
James shares his recent journey to Amelia...
Back for more! James talks about his recent adventures with 991.2 exhaust mods with Soul Performance components going on and off and back on again in various combinations. Andy talks about his 10th Alpine Range Rally. We’ve got an absolute cracker for Video of the Week and much, much more! Welcome to Curb and Canyon.
Tommy from 'Tommy L Garage' joins us for a chat about his journey from a young extreme sports and skateboarding vlogger to a respected figure in the ever expanding Porsche YouTube community.
We talk about Tommy's early days when YouTube first launched, where his blend of skateboarding and car content laid the groundwork for his current success. We venture into the exhilarating world of Porsch...
Welcome to the 40th episode of Curb and Canyon! Thank you for sticking with us, we promise another ripper in this anniversary - and certainly not last - episode. We're talking about James' recent adventures tuning his base 991.2 and the list of upcoming performance mods his has in store for his Auto Amateur viewers over the next few months. We say goodbye Total 911 magazine, paying tribute to its former e...
Two pods in two weeks?! You can't get rid of us. In this episode we're going somewhat unscripted because Andy's dog ate the show notes but don't let that put you off, this one's another cracker. We're talking about Andy's recent 'Mega-Loop' Rally and his upcoming 'Alpine Ridge Rally 10' while James is getting ready for his annual pilgrimage to the Smoky Mountains for some dragon slaying at Tail of the Dra...
Andy and James share their reactions to the 992.2. Porsche just recently announced the second generation 992 and besides adding a T-Hybrid engine that comes with the GTS variant, they're throwing everything else away - no rear seats, no manual transmission, no more key-start ignition, no more analog instrument cluster gauges. The cheek!
In this episode we're also talking about the recent laws...
Andy and James are back! We've missed you, but after some hilariously over-the-top scheduling snafus, we're back and broadcasting from Minnesota to Melbourne for the start of our FOURTH season of this podcast for Porsche enthusiasts by Porsche enthusiasts.
Buckle up as we share our Porsche escapades from over the last few months, from the laughable to the downright heart-pounding.
Welcome to another episode of Curb and Canyon! Come along with us as we reflect on a recent local car show that stirred up nostalgia-filled emotions with some epic examples of truly classic Porsches.
Swapping car show tales for adventure stories, we recount recent road trips and the thrill of maneuvering through curving backroads both through the Rocky Mountains of Colorado and Wyoming for James as...
