For more than three decades, the familiar voices of Under The Hood show have been a weekend ritual in garages and driveways nationwide. Originating from Nordstroms Automotive Inc., this long-running conversation feels less like a formal broadcast and more like hanging out with your most knowledgeable car-obsessed friends, the self-proclaimed Motor Medics. While the landscape of automotive media has shifted, the core of this podcast remains a unique blend of reliable troubleshooting, industry news, and genuine camaraderie. Listeners dial in with real-world problems on everything from classic truck carburetors to the latest electric vehicle quirks, receiving practical advice that demystifies complex systems. The charm lies in the balance between education and entertainment, where a deep dive into transmission repair might be followed by a lively debate on vintage muscle cars or the future of autonomous driving. It’s this consistent, engaging mix that has sustained its presence on hundreds of radio stations and as a directly-downloaded podcast, building a community of enthusiasts who just want to understand their vehicles better. Tuning in means joining a vast, ongoing dialogue where no question is too simple and the passion for anything on four wheels is always under the hood.
