Spike's Car Radio

The Spike's Car Radio podcast provides listeners with an insider perspective of the automotive world. It does so from a unique and compelling angle. Instead of only talking to car manufacturers and experts, the host interviews celebrities.

Host Spike Feresten invites comedians, actors, and writers to his podcast. They are people who also happen to be car fanatics, like Matt Damon, Christian Bale, and Dick Van Dyke. They share their best car stories and what they have currently parked in their garages. Most of these celebrities' abundant expendable income goes toward their passion for cars. Another recurring guest host is Jerry Seinfeld, who has an enviable Porsche collection. Even Feresten's most famous guests have cars they dream of owning. Discussions often revolve around car ownership aspirations.

Feresten is not a car professional by trade. His day job is as a comedian and writer for popular shows like The Simpsons, Seinfeld, and David Letterman. His true passion is cars. He spends his every hour off work checking eBay motors. He's always searching for the next vintage car to add to his collection. Currently, he owns treasures such as a 1972 Ferrari 365GTC/4. As a "car guy," Feresten's friends tended to ask him questions about cars. This led to him creating the TV show Car Matchmaker, a car fanatic's equivalent to Say Yes to the Dress. His podcast Spike's Car Radio provides him with another outlet to discuss his favorite topic.

Spike's Car Radio also shares car news and innovation. Feresten talks to experts from the Tesla Design Chief to IndyCar drivers. Thanks to his chemistry with cohost Paul Zuckerman, conversations are always entertaining. They never focus on too many technical details. Instead, they profess their automotive passion using wit and charming banter. New episodes arrive weekly.
