Jay Leno pulls no punches as he discusses the importance of free speech in comedy, referencing Jimmy Kimmel's return to television and drawing parallels to historical censorship cases.
The conversation shifts gears to Ford's electrifying Mustang GTD, with Leno arguing it represents excellent value despite its high price tag, thanks to its advanced technology and Multimatic construction. Spike and Jay also dive into Chris Harris and Max Verstappen's incredible Nürburgring run, the reimagining of Willow Springs Raceway, the growing threat of Chinese electric cars, and they pay tribute to Tom Matano, the late designer of the iconic Mazda Miata.
Throughout the episode, Jay shares candid stories about his experiences with corporate responsibility, his failed attempt to pass "Leno's Law" for vintage car emissions, and why he'll never run for political office, quipping that "politics is show business for ugly people."
