    248: The Other Side Of The Table, With Zack Mcclain

    Zack Mcclain joins me on the show this week to share a different perspective on the subject of NASTF and the upcoming immobilizer tool updates. This will be counter to last week's episode with Tanner Brandt, but in my opinion, an important discussion to have.

    246: Why The Ohmmeter Is Awesome

    246: Why The Ohmmeter Is Awesome

    This week on the show I share why I think the Ohmmeter is a great tool. It gets a lot of hate when it comes to diagnostic test methods, some of it valid, but it's all about understanding the capabilities of our test methods. I'll share why this is a powerful tool and the best way to utilize it.

Realistic Greatness!

Great podcast! Sean is awesome and I love how he is willing to share the vehicles that kicked his butt. Too many people want to be the hero and that’s just not reality. This is one of the only automotive podcasts that I have found that focuses on diagnostics and I’m grateful for it!
