Wild tale indeed...and a good reason why this guy doesn't care much for the collector car scene. It's too full of flippers, strippers, and pimps...not to mention criminal types.
Much higher moral standards can be found in a pool hall located in Chicago's South side. (not that I've ever been in one.)

Muy Interesante!
(yeah, I know, that's Spanish, and they speak Portuguese in Brazil, but I don't know how to say "very interesting" in Portuguese. Obrigado!)

This guy is easy to listen to.
FWIW, reminds me a touch of Simon Whistler (YouTube) but less scripted. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JNWPLKoWr24

eleven minutes of building up the story, getting the listener involved, lots of anticipation, and then at the peak he says...... it didn't pan out so we walked away. End of story. Nothing happened.
Are you friggin kidding me? |

   Every story in the history of man, going back to the Paleolithic age, can be distilled by PWD into a pool hall allegory. It's kind of brilliant, in a way. |

Nearly 12 minutes wasted on the video...I could have run a rack, maybe 2 in that time.

This guy's videos are the worst. I wish I could block them from showing up in my youtube suggestions, along with Hoovie and Doug DeMuro.

I did not watch one second of it, I'm proud to say. What was the title, "click bait?"

It was an interesting story, albeit with a bit of an anti-climax at the end.

Burn the fire.

The guy can tell a decent story, but what a crappy ending. Petered out really bad. "So we passed, yeah. Fin."
