Author: ROADSTERSHOP August 18, 2025 Duration: 2:01:07

In this episode, we sit down with Mike Finnegan, Co-host of Roadkill and Faster with Finnegan, to talk about building cars, making TV, and the wild road that led him here. From starting out as a writer and editor to becoming a face of automotive entertainment, Mike shares stories about working with David Freiburger, the early days of YouTube car culture, and balancing family life with constant projects and filming. The guys also dig into hot rod culture, unforgettable builds, and what keeps Mike chasing horsepower.


There’s a certain alchemy that happens when raw mechanical passion meets the kind of relaxed, behind-the-scenes conversation usually reserved for a garage late at night. That’s the atmosphere you’ll find on Oil and Whiskey with Roadster Shop. Hosted by Jeremy Gerber, Phil Gerber, and Josh Henning, this podcast pulls back the curtain on the world of high-end custom muscle cars and chassis building straight from the experts who do it every day. You’re not just getting a polished show; you’re getting a seat at the bench in their shop. Episodes dive into the nitty-gritty details of current builds, break down emerging technology and techniques, and swap stories from the road and major events. It’s a mix of practical tips, industry news, and the unfiltered insights that come from a team with decades of collective experience. Whether you’re deep into a project of your own or just appreciate the craft, this podcast connects the dots between hard work and the camaraderie that fuels it. Tune in for genuine shop talk that feels like hanging out with the crew.
