Honestly seeing these two split off to do their things, get big, and come back with nothing negative between them is just so awesome. Hats off to both guys!
Right it’s crazy how far they have come!!! Besides the success, I love that they are still friends. I don’t know if it got awkward behind the camera, because it could have gotten ugly. Much respect for both
Cleet is a damn savage. He grabs his water off a coaster takes a sip and puts the bottle back down on the table top and proceeds to plays with the coaster.
That is a proven way to build a channel but not so good if the goal is to win races. It's a form of buying content that only works if your channel is entertaining enough to get subs/sponsors and can sell a bunch of merchandise to pay for all the blown up engines. Not many people have all the necessary talents needed to do it successfully, other than Garrett the only two that come close are Mike Finnegan, who had a ready made fan base from TV, and Tom Bailey, who has a profitable business than could fund his channel until he ventured into the Sick business to take his channel into the next level.
When they are young it's pretty easy. The bigger challenge will be when they are a little older and he's trying to balance work/content/travel with not missing school activities and sporting events. That's when things really get hectic.
Eh. Id say he will be fine. Cleetus looks and talks like us "poors", but, he can afford a nanny, or a helper if needed. I am partially disabled and have 3 kids under 5 years old, and 47 years old, and I dont consider any of my 3 being a "curve ball". (The part of my injury doesnt pertain to my johnson.. obviously😂)
It’s nice to hear other guy talk about being a dad and fatherhood because I got two boys that are straight going ham 24/7 and I got no friends that have kids or anything so this is nice
It will come. When the wife asks you to go to birthdays and bbqs say yes. Meet other dads, talk about the things you enjoy and see if you can build a new circle. "I have a V8 and a shed" is a good start, as is "I have a boat, who likes fishing?"
I know cleetus has always said he wants to build a super bird but I think a promod crown Vic would be more on brand for him I think it would be awesome to see him build a big tire crown Vic like Steve’s wagon
Yes, project meteor interceptor looks awesome with the hood cowel so a promod crown vic sould be visually pleasing. However it would not be enough to take the title of coolest crown vic from the meteor interceptor...
I've always enjoyed hearing the entrepreneur side of Garrett. He definitely sets the bar for our generation to be successful and do what we love to do. Thank you for having him on again.
Ain't gonna lie, I still get a kick out of seeing my band sticker and autograph on the bottom of Leroy whenever there's a shot of a clutch adjustment or something. So many good times back in the early days.
Gotta love seeing Cleet and Coop back together again. It’s always entertaining and relatable. Watching this episode makes me feel like I’m a normal dude and we all go through the same struggles and successes. Can’t wait for World Cup and seeing the racing content but this is a cool perspective into these guys as normal relatable dudes.
Man seeing these two together is so nostalgic. I remember watching some of the first videos coop and Cleet where making back in the day. Man was it great seeing what you two accomplished.
She will be daddy’s little girl no matter what you think. I was a stay at home dad for my second daughter for 5 years after a bad car accident. you do get to know what they want the more time you spend with them and having 2 daughters and being with them full time give us a special bond that my ex wife misses out on.
I normally don't watch long podcasts because they are too long. But dang, 46 minutes into this one and I have not stopped smiling yet. Cleet is my favorite person on the planet and Coop was there from the early days. Such cool stories!
first time i actually connected with people genuinely, so hard to explain parenthood to people who dont have kids, love listening to these guys talk about what im living, and connecting with them
I love that cleetus is supporting bogetti. You can tell that bogetti was an idea man for cleeter. Cleeter needs him back in all honesty. I know he is doing fine without him, but I think together they are unstoppable
Best part of Cleetus goin through the work of blowing engines is it makes such a cool evolution and learning show and great to watch. We all discover the flaws and maximums through the lens.
Yep, when my wife left me solo with my son it was like when my FTO stepped out of the patrol car and I took my first call solo as a LEO.....scared to DEATH.
I have enjoyed your podcast Cooper. In this case it's cool to hear you and Cleeter just conversate. Two guys that genuinely like and have a great deal of respect for each other.
A cool thing they do for diesel events for “street truck” class is they make them do a 1-2hr road cruise no popping hood before they can race in street class
This is the podcast we all love to see notifications for. Love the life talk and reminiscing. Cooper you're in for a wild amazing ride when you become a daddy
Awesome. For those us who came along for the ride from the very begining with you two and never missed a single video... What a great walk down memory lane. It's amazing what you've both accomplished and inspirational how much family is woven into the very fabric of who and why you are who you are.
Im really excited for Freedom+ That sounds like such a great idea. You can stream so many smaller events that don't get shown because it's not NHRA/Nascar or some other big time show. A LOT of folks, like me, would pay for a streaming service that is dedicated to drags/racing and other great content that you don't get anywhere else. Great bang for your buck and wish you the best of luck with it. I bet it will take off and be the most successful adventures Cleet will end up doing. Always a joy to see you two just talk it up! Congrats on soon to be Bogetti Jr as well!
I wish Cleetus would do something with that cougar sitting out by the shop, nobodies running one that I've seen and it'd be badass to see it built for Mr. Sam to run in drag and drives or something.
He's already doing that in one car, there's no content in doing another coyote fox. But depending on the trim level it might already have an old 302 in it, so building that might be OK. Both foxes, both 302s, but both different. Edit: the both being foxes thing is only true if the cougar is like an 89 or older I think they changed the platform for them around then.
@dalebryant5754 it's an 83 or 83, I own one. It has a flat tappet 302 with an AOD. Great platform to start with. Few things have to be modified because it's just barely different from a fox mustang
Wish this was a monthly or bi monthly thing with these two sitting down and talking. Natural friend chemistry and interesting with both lives taking different paths from the beginning of the channel its infinitely interesting.
Cool to see these two just shooting the shit like old friends! I've lost so many old friends I can't do this very often anymore. Very few left alive really at this point as crazy as that is to say at 37.. wow I miss my homies!!
Love seeing Cleetus on ur podcast. You need to have him on like once every few months. You two talk about everything most car ppl like to here thank you for the great podcast keep them coming
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Tye does seem good at explaining stuff and he knows his shit. 9/10 times he crawls under a car, it works better when he crawls out from under it. Haha
Cooper, I’ve offered build consultation services for years and have rarely had customers purchase them. Typically unless I’m doing the actual build, people are completely unwilling to pay for my knowledge. They’re happy to ask questions and get answers for free at cruise nights or car shows, but typically people won’t pay you to help them with the planning/scope of their project. I’m not sure why.
unwillingness to leave their ego at the garage door is typically the problem.. until they hit that wall of frustration men are god awful at asking for help that could of kept them from having to hit that wall.
To add to what Sir Monkey typed there's also the matter of money and the need to purchase parts often is the priority as opposed to buying knowledge, especially if they have access to the Internet and are willing to spend the time and effort to research different setups.
@@indianaslim4971 yeah, it’s really easy to fall into the “I saw a guy do it on the internet” or “I read how to do it on a forum” and feeling like you’re betting off spending your entire budget on parts, rather than adding in an expert’s labor. I also find that the people who hire me to build projects for them are much more worried about the finished project than people who “do it themselves” 100%. The do-it-yourselfer tends to find more joy in the process, specially seeing as how many of them never finish their projects.
@@indianaslim4971 one inexperienced mistake will destroy all those fancy parts you just bought. Remember, knowledge might be free on the internet, but experience costs real time and real money.
Cleet is right about airports not having good guidelines, I worked with a salesman who taught my old boss how to fly his plane, the salesman got drunk one night and stole my boss's plane, flew it to another city, then showed up at my old boss's house drunk and wanted to take him flying, well, long story short he got fired.
I’m loving channel more and more! Thank you Coop! Super proud of what you’ve built your name to be outside of the McFarland camp. I came for the support I’ll stay for the content!
As much as I thought the Godzilla engine swap is a sweet engine it was always meant to be a truck engine and for that it does a fantastic job. Still fun content but maybe some after market support they can be more reliable in a race car 😊. Can’t wait to hear the coyote scream 😀
Look at the current Coyote Cleetus got? how do you compare a complete solid deck Coyote with Top fuel Hoops and receiver grooves in it to that Coyote? I'll bet the Godzilla has the right amount of torque to Horsepower ratio of any other ford engine. Brodix just modified a stock block to handle more power then Cleetus pushed out. Now add in the Top Fuel Hoops and Receiver grooves in that Godzilla? Your looking at 2000 plus horsepower and still have more turbo to play with. No comparison between his new Coyote to the Godzilla. The Coyote is a true aftermarket block to a factory truck engine block🤣.
44:12 I see Cleetus as being the worst teacher ever. He probably goes like: "I sat in it and did the thing, and the vehicle did its thing, and now I am a pro doing it"
The best do’ers are the worst teachers because they get to the point of where they don’t think about it they just do it so it’s hard to teach it because you never have to think about it when doing it
I’m sad that y’all aren’t in each others videos much anymore, but I’m glad you’re still great friends. Your chemistry together is awesome. Keep ‘em coming, Coop. These pods are great.
I'd like to see Cleetus get into rally racing and building a Rally car. I watch those road rallies from Sweden and other Scandinavian countries and those drivers are freaking insane. I bet he would love it especially after participating in those jet boat events in Washington State. Just a thought.
there aren't a whole lot of amateur options in the states. did it on and off for about 6 years myself and unless you're doing it to become a pro driver or sell your soul to sponsors it's just not enjoyable for the cost(way too many rules). something like pikes peak or the mt. washington hill climbs are far more interesting but that s... is sketchy as hell.. one day i'd like to do pikes peak though.
For the Jr. Dragster talk I grew up doing it and it was some of the best memories with my dad even if there was some controversy at some times at the track but that’s drag racing! With the Jrs most of the classes are dial ins so you really can only beat yourself whether it’s on the tree or the dial. Regardless it’s a point in my life I will never forget
Cooper has NOOOO idea what he is in for. The level of joy he finds in racing will quickly take second place to being a dad. It is the single best thing ever. Once you hold that little mini version of yourself, you will hopefully find a love and a sense of purpose like that has no rival. Enjoy it, journal it, take selfies, don't blink....as cliche as it sounds, it is true advice.
Wow that was great, the other day I was wondering about what Cooper was doing. I often wondered how Leroy got away with so much, now I understand it was not all just show up and beat up the competition. Can't wait til the next one... thanks for this one.
Freedom+ just makes sense. Other than a few great original shows, Motortrend+ is just the discovery channel with a different logo. I think a true motorsports network for enthusiasts is sorely needed. Hearing Cleets plans for it convinced me to subscribe. Excited for LeMullets. Going to road trip down there from Indiana in my 85 Vette.
Great episode…. I know top gear inside and out, absolutely a nobody and ready to move to Florida to be part of the tv show on Cleets channel. Let’s go!!! 🎉❤
That too cool to plug your ears thing was gold. There are so many of those ppl at the track. Our track has a "smoke box" set of bleachers right next to the burnout box/staging area. It's LOUD and awesome. So many cool adults there...in the stands...with no ear protection...looking cool.
It happened in Irish drifting when they had the live stream less people showed up but Ireland has bad weather and a 2 or 3 hour drive is massive to us .
I remember back when me and my buddy raced jr dragsters the track we raced at always had 15-20 jr’s show up it was so fun I can’t wait till I graduate college and have a job that funds my racing addiction so I can finish building my truck and get back on the track
Honestly seeing these two split off to do their things, get big, and come back with nothing negative between them is just so awesome. Hats off to both guys!
Yes it proves there was really nothing bad. They can say there wasn’t but this more proves there really wasn’t
I mean why would there be bad blood. Their never was in the first place but i agree it is cool to see that Coop was able to succeed on his own
I know faster proms and them two go into a heated battle.
@@FrankHoneycutt I don't think that actually happened either. I am sure there was some tension, but there was never any battle that I am aware of.
They are brothers....
Hearing them talk about the early 2017 and 18 days brings me so much nostalgia 😢 proud of the boys
Right it’s crazy how far they have come!!! Besides the success, I love that they are still friends. I don’t know if it got awkward behind the camera, because it could have gotten ugly. Much respect for both
Cleet is a damn savage. He grabs his water off a coaster takes a sip and puts the bottle back down on the table top and proceeds to plays with the coaster.
I can't unsee this
He did it in the last video. Lol

Another that comes to mind is Kyle from boosted boys, he's blown up some engines and grown his channel enough to pay for the parts.
Love the Dad talk. Cooper is in for a rude awakening but cletus doesn't understand how much of a curve ball that second kid is going to be.
Hahahahah, ya then when twins happen instead of just a second. You really get a surprise!!
Yeah the second is so damn hard but when they start becoming best friends when the second one hits 18 months it’s so fucking awesome
When they are young it's pretty easy. The bigger challenge will be when they are a little older and he's trying to balance work/content/travel with not missing school activities and sporting events. That's when things really get hectic.
2 is simple.... now 3, oof!

I know cleetus has always said he wants to build a super bird but I think a promod crown Vic would be more on brand for him I think it would be awesome to see him build a big tire crown Vic like Steve’s wagon
Pro mod crown vic would be crazy
That's the best idea I've ever heard
Yeah, then he could sit in the back seat like Steve’s wagon.
Yes, project meteor interceptor looks awesome with the hood cowel so a promod crown vic sould be visually pleasing. However it would not be enough to take the title of coolest crown vic from the meteor interceptor...
Yeah but the issue with Mullet is weight and Crown Vic isn't going to help in that department. A Superbird probably won't either!
Man this casual conversation is better than all the drag race only stuff, good to hear about the background life of all you guys

George is now Garret's idea man, he's been moved out of the shop and into the office for that purpose, along with the camera duties.

Once you hold that little mini version of yourself, you will hopefully find a love and a sense of purpose like that has no rival. Enjoy it, journal it, take selfies, don't blink....as cliche as it sounds, it is true advice.
Agreed, almost at 2 yrs old and being a dad has been the one thing that changed my life significantly for the better.
I don’t think you can really compare having kids to hobby/recreational activities.
There are hellcat 300s but they’re all swap cars! They are the same platform as the charger so it’s a pretty easy swap!
I just want to say that a Cletus/whistlin/vice grip top gear remake is the single greatest ideas i have heard in a very long time
Dude! Hell yeah! Would be better then every other top gear except the og with the big 3!
Nice to hear Cleet speak without the rubbish sponsors and showmanship
Nothing wrong with a pint of AG1 while smothering your nutsack in Keeps
Spoken like a forever employee and not a business man.
Great show coops , keep it up..... you to cleetus.....
Glad you two stayed tight with each other!
Always good when you two get together! Appreciate the content from you both 🇺🇸
Wow that was great, the other day I was wondering about what Cooper was doing. I often wondered how Leroy got away with so much, now I understand it was not all just show up and beat up the competition. Can't wait til the next one... thanks for this one.
Super cool to hear Cleet and Coop talking about cannonball records!
Cooper you always do great talks with tall people 😂 another wonder episode!!
@23:53. Subtle but very high level check mate from cleet.
Basically told coop not to be negative without substantial reasoning. Love that.
Freedom+ just makes sense. Other than a few great original shows, Motortrend+ is just the discovery channel with a different logo. I think a true motorsports network for enthusiasts is sorely needed. Hearing Cleets plans for it convinced me to subscribe. Excited for LeMullets. Going to road trip down there from Indiana in my 85 Vette.
Probably the funniest and best pod cast out there
What a great conversation!
Great episode…. I know top gear inside and out, absolutely a nobody and ready to move to Florida to be part of the tv show on Cleets channel. Let’s go!!! 🎉❤
Coop, you should try to get someone like David Frieburger on one of these days, that'd be a good watch. Keep up the good work !
Great episode love the talks with Cleetus,congrats on your baby, I myself expecting my first granddaughter the same month 🤘🤘🤘 keep up the great work
My 2 favourite racers. I've follwed cleeter from when he used to put whistles in his exhausts to sound like a turbo lol
That too cool to plug your ears thing was gold. There are so many of those ppl at the track. Our track has a "smoke box" set of bleachers right next to the burnout box/staging area. It's LOUD and awesome. So many cool adults there...in the stands...with no ear protection...looking cool.
I look forward to watching this, gonna have to listen to this when I'm working on chores... on daddy leave now
I remember passing you guys regularly on 275 headed to Bradenton for test and tunes.
Subbed you up today Cooper, thought I already was. Good stuff from the OG's
It happened in Irish drifting when they had the live stream less people showed up but Ireland has bad weather and a 2 or 3 hour drive is massive to us .
Enjoyed the dad talk, future dad myself come Dec.
I ran jrs for 10 years and went to the ihra world finals in 2020 and loved every minute of it and moved up to top bulb racing
Definitely worth the watch
22:33 - 😮 I didn’t know that about Honda tires either! That’s wild 🎉
My dad put me in a gokart at 6, to this day I’m thankful for that
I remember back when me and my buddy raced jr dragsters the track we raced at always had 15-20 jr’s show up it was so fun I can’t wait till I graduate college and have a job that funds my racing addiction so I can finish building my truck and get back on the track
Great show. Both of you are better than what's on TV. So when I hear you striving for a killer TV show y'all are better than what's available on TV.
