And recently, in the last two years, I’ve seen some photographs of this guy. He’s been in a little bit more trouble recently.
Ben Bowlin
Oh no.
Scott Benjamin
Yeah, there’s some scary photos like mug shots – face covered with sores from exposure.
Ben Bowlin
Oh, man.
Scott Benjamin
I know. And if that doesn’t intrigue you, I don’t know what will. So check it out. It’s a fascinating story.
Ben Bowlin
Oh, wow. So let’s try to segue out of this. Find us on Facebook. Find us on Twitter – Car Stuff. Hope you enjoyed this as much as we did.
Scott Benjamin
Nice salvaging that one.
Ben Bowlin
Is it salvaging?
Scott Benjamin
I guess.
Ben Bowlin
It’s damage control.
Scott Benjamin
I threw you way off with the book recommendation. It’s like Scott’s Book Club.
Ben Bowlin
Scott’s Book Club. And also our blog. And of course, if you have any questions – I don’t know if we have anything about The Radioactive Boy Scout on the site yet.
Scott Benjamin
I doubt it.
Ben Bowlin
I doubt it, too. But if you have any automotive questions that aren’t answered on the site, or if you have something you’d like to hear in an upcoming episode, please send us an email at -
