The Kibbe and Friends Show

Every once in a while we take a break from Hazzard County and revisit another piece of automotive pop culture, and this week we're looking back at one of the most quotable comedy films ever made—Wayne's World. Mike Myers and Dana Carvey turned a popular Saturday Night Live sketch into a movie that defined the early '90s while giving us unforgettable characters, classic rock, and one of the most recognizable movie cars of the decade.

We discuss why the flame-painted AMC Pacer became an icon, how Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" found a whole new generation of fans because of the film, and why Wayne's World still works more than thirty years later. Along the way, we revisit memorable scenes, behind-the-scenes trivia, the 1966 Pontiac GTO driven by Benjamin Kane, and the pop culture moments that made this comedy a lasting classic.

Party on! 🤘

Season 2 continues with "The Rustlers," as the Duke Boys team up with country music legend Mel Tillis to protect his prized racehorse from Boss Hogg, horse rustlers, and one crooked horse dealer. While the General Lee doesn't get as much screen time as usual, this episode delivers plenty of memorable moments—including a race between the General Lee and a thoroughbred, Uncle Jesse's now-famous climb out of the General, and Boss Hogg's hilarious attempts to impress Lulu.

In this review, Rob, Corndog, and Bernie discuss Mel Tillis' unforgettable guest appearance, the real-life story behind his famous stutter, and the surprising appearance of Dorothy Collier, who would later marry James Best and become Dorothy Best. Corndog also breaks down several production details, including one of the rare General Lees without a roll bar, continuity clues, classic vehicle sightings, and hidden details that longtime Dukes fans will appreciate.

The crew also plays another round of the Automotive Celebrity Birthday Game, Bernie brings the latest automotive news, and everyone debates one important question: Could the General Lee really outrun a racehorse? Whether you're a longtime Dukes fan or simply love classic TV and vintage muscle cars, there's plenty to enjoy in this week's review.

This week on The Kibbe & Friends Show, the guys kick things off by discussing the growing rumors that Dodge could return to NASCAR competition in 2027. With new reports suggesting progress on both the race car and engine program, Rob, Corndog, and Bernie debate what Dodge's return could look like, how manufacturer-supported engines compare to the competition, and whether NASCAR has become too standardized compared to the glory days of stock car racing.

Next up is another hilarious edition of the Automotive Celebrity Birthday Game, featuring movie and television trivia from Ghostbusters, Risky Business, Apollo 13, Friends, Herbie: Fully Loaded, and more before Bernie delivers this week's news, including Ford's efforts to improve quality control, a wild Costco tequila sampling story, and a few Fourth of July laughs courtesy of National Parts Depot.

Finally, the crew heads back to Hazzard County for Season 2, Episode 2: "Gold Fever." They revisit the fake gold bar scheme, Boss Hogg's latest bad investment, the unforgettable mobile dentist, and one of the early episodes that truly established the fun, action-packed formula that made The Dukes of Hazzard a television classic. Along the way they break down Al Wyatt's incredible stunt driving, General Lee trivia, production bloopers, and the behind-the-scenes details that only lifelong Dukes fans tend to notice.

Season 2 of The Dukes of Hazzard gets underway with "Days of Shine and Roses," an episode that takes fans back to the moonshine-running days of Uncle Jesse and Boss Hogg. What starts with a collection of old "home movies" quickly turns into one last Ridge Runner race as two longtime rivals settle an old score the only way they know how—with fast cars, back roads, and plenty of Hazzard County chaos.

This episode is packed with memorable automotive moments, including Uncle Jesse's blacked-out Mustang, Boss Hogg's Camaro, the return of a familiar blown big-block Chevy engine, and some fantastic stunt driving throughout. From Buzz Bundy's smooth two-wheel driving to Luke's daring mid-race transfer between the General Lee, Uncle Jesse's Mustang, and Cooter's tow truck, there's no shortage of behind-the-scenes details for the guys to dive into.

Join Rob, CornDog, and Bernie as they break down the episode, point out filming mistakes and continuity quirks, discuss one of the wildest General Lee landings of the early seasons, and share the kind of observations that only lifelong Dukes of Hazzard fans can appreciate. If you love classic television, vintage muscle cars, and practical stunt work, this is another fun trip back to Hazzard County.

Disney's The Love Bug wasn't just a hit movie—it created one of the most recognizable automotive stars in entertainment history. Long before KITT, the General Lee, or Lightning McQueen, a little Volkswagen Beetle named Herbie captured audiences with personality, charm, and a racing spirit that made generations of car enthusiasts believe their own vehicles might have a soul.

In this episode, Rob, Corn Dog, and Bernie revisit the original 1969 classic that launched an entire franchise. From Dean Jones' role as struggling racer Jim Douglas to the villainous Peter Thorndyke and the practical effects that brought Herbie to life, the crew explores what made this Disney film such a phenomenon. They also discuss the movie's racing action, behind-the-scenes movie magic, and why Herbie remains one of the most beloved automotive characters ever created.

The Love Bug was a massive box office success, earning more than ten times its production budget and becoming the second-highest-grossing film of 1969. Nearly sixty years later, it still holds up as a fun, family-friendly movie that combines racing, comedy, and heart in a way few automotive films ever have. Join the guys as they celebrate the movie that started it all and revisit one of the greatest car stars ever put on the silver screen.
