This week on Spike's Car Radio, Spike claims to be the first person outside of Subaru's bubble to drive the new Uncharted EV — 338 horsepower, off-road modes, and a starting price of $46K. Jonny Lieberman then goes deep on the Mercedes-AMG GT 63 S E Performance: 831hp, 1021 lb-ft of torque, 0-60 in 2.4 seconds, and a whole 1 mile of electric range. They debate whether it looks good. The verdict is complicated.

The hosts also weigh in on LA's incoming 125 speed cameras, Nantucket's surprisingly drug-heavy wastewater, and a product called the "D**k Laser" that somehow gets a full design consultation.

The main event: Agent Sebastian from Cart Narcs sits down to explain how a simple question about shopping cart laziness turned into a viral empire. They review clips of people threatening lawsuits, dropping racial slurs from an Audi R8, and one guy in Texas going full unhinged over a cart. Spoiler: one of them works for Jimmy Kimmel. Plus, Spike is deputized as a Cart Narc and heads to Costco to accost the lazybones of L.A.

The crew also debates the impact of Chinese cars entering the Canadian market, seeing both consumer benefits and industry concerns.

The crew dives deep into the Ferrari 12Cilindri Spider's effortless speed and dual personality as both luxury cruiser and performance beast. Peter Nam's CTR Ferrari 458 project showcases the best of aftermarket engineering with its quality modifications and performance upgrades. The Lamborghini Urus SE's plugin hybrid status raises eyebrows; does a silent Lambo miss the point? The Toyota MR2 revival is unveiled, and the guys cautiously celebrate the budget sportscar.

In tech news, Waymo self-driving cars make headlines for all the wrong reasons as the hosts humorously dissect recent incidents. The episode takes unexpected turns with a bizarre Florida man vacuum story and appreciation for William Shatner enjoying cereal in his car during his "f**k it years." The show closes with a touching tribute to James Moylan, the unsung Ford designer who invented the arrow indicating your fuel tank's side.
