05/08/2018

A discussion on the state of mandated periodic motor vehicle inspections.

There are only 14 states in the US that have some sort of mandated vehicle inspection. There had been almost twice that amount. There is momentum to eliminate these safety inspection programs.

The panel discusses the reason we are at such a low level and what needs to be done to help arrest additional states from phasing out any more inspection programs.

With Carm, recorded live with a studio audience is Robert L. Redding Jr., ASA Legislative representative, Joe Battista, the Vice President of Sales and Business Development for Parsons Corporation, and shop owner Sybren van der Pol, an ASE Master L1 Technician and owner of Adolf Hoepfl & Son Garage, in Houston, TX and serves on the local ASA Houston chapter Board of Directors.

This is one of the few auto podcasts I’ve come across that delivers niche, actionable value. Our industry is changing. If you aren’t preparing, if you aren’t enabling innovation, you are putting an expiration date on your business. Take some time during your commute to listen to this show. It will be time well spent.

Finding “the surprise” inside the CrackerJack Box
November 26, 2015 by beeze78 from United States
Carm is taking the lid off of the independent automotive aftermarket and shining lights where they haven’t been shown before. Each episode is filled with guests that share a amazing amount of insight so that others can learn from. With Carm’s style of interviewing and his “smooth jazz” voice, he’s able to get the true personality of his guest out onto the airwaves. Every episode is filled with gems that we can take back and use in our shops immediately. It’s like finding that surprise toy buried in that box of Cracker Jack’s. Every box there’s something different.
Really great show!

Carm is very insightful, he gets to the heart of the matter in very candid conversation. He also stays up to date on technology and social media trends. His industry specific interviews are right on point and very helpful. Every shop owner should tune in!
Great natural radio personality!
May 21, 2015 by Greekfire15 from United States
Carm has a natural, easy interviewing style that makes these interviews fun and interesting to listen to. It's kind of like Car Talk, but instead of cars and issues, it really goes after aftermarket shop talk; getting to sit down with successful car shop owners and hear about how they manage their shop, techs, and stand out. Great work!
