Andy’s back in the studio with Matt, Rick, and even Andy’s wife (aka the real chaperone / brains of the operation). We catch up on what they’ve been up to since the last time Andy was on. Including a major Slonaker win, how they took a rare “quiet year” to focus on the shop and actually be home for the kids’ stuff, and what they changed internally to keep everything moving. Then it turns into classic O&W shop talk: big projects, what it’s like when a client trusts the team and lets them push it, and the behind-the-scenes excitement around a seriously next-level Roadster Shop chassis project . It’s a long-form hang with a killer crew\n"},"annotations":[{"startTime":668.6,"endTime":6759.1,"type":"company","title":"Eddie's Rod Shop","url":"/glossary/eddie-s-rod-shop","quote":"What have I seen?
