    The Carmudgeon Show

    Part of the Hagerty Podcast Network, the Carmudgeon Show is a comedic, information-filled conversation with Jason Cammisa and Derek Tam-Scott, two car enthusiasts who are curmudgeonly beyond their years. Proving you don’t have to be old to be grumpy, they spend each episode talking about what’s wrong with various parts of the automotive universe. Despite their best efforts to keep it negative, they usually wind up laughing, happy, and extolling their love for cars. Which just makes them angrier and more bitter.

    Jason Cammisa is an automotive journalist, social-media figure, and TV host with over 300 million views on YouTube alone. Jason’s deeply technical understanding, made possible by a lifelong obsession with cars, allows him to fully digest what’s going on within an automobile — and then put it into simple terms for others to understand. Also, a Master’s Degree in Law trained him to be impossible to argue with.

    Derek Tam-Scott still tries. He’s a young automotive expert with old-man taste in cars, and a Master’s Degree in Civil Engineering — which means he knows how to be civil to Jason. Or at least he tries. With a decade and a half’s experience buying, selling, driving and brokering classic and exotic cars, he’s experienced the world’s most iconic cars. And hated most of them.

    Random Number Generator Car Reviews #3 — Carmudgeon Show with Jason Cammisa & Derek Tam-Scott Ep 109 Aug 24, 2023
    Show notes

    Back by popular(-ish) demand, and because the Carmudgeons were at Monterey Car Week instead of podcasting live, we have another episode where Jason and Derek dig into their vast spreadsheets of automotive reviews.


    The boys use Random Number Generator to call up cells in their spreadsheets of automotive nerdery, forcing Jason and Derek to take a trip down memory lane — and then read aloud their sometimes-embarrassing commentary on cars they've driven in the past.


    Cars that they'd often forgotten about it.


    In this episode, we hear about some of the following cars:


    Alfa Romeo GTV6

    Mercedes 300SL Roadster (W196)

    2009 BMW E92 M3 Coupe DCT in a Hypermiling challenge

    2023 BMW 760i xDrive

    2001 Dodge Viper

    2007 Mercedes CLK 550 Cabriolet

    Lancia Fulvia HF

    2009 Jetta TDI (Mk5)

    2009 Honda CR-V Diesel Bosch Prototype

    1991 BMW 318is convertible (E30)

    1994 Porsche Speedster

    2011 Audi A8

    2015 Volkswagen Golf Mk7

    Suzuki XL7

    1961 Jaguar E-Type

    2017 Aston Martin V12 Vantage S 7-speed Dogleg Manual

    2024 Aston Martin Valour

    1985 Ferrari Testarossa Monospecchio

    BMW 850i (E31)

    Bentley Continental W12

    2008 Mercedes C300 Sport 6-speed

    Bugatti's Next Car Has a V8; The Carmudgeons Don't Approve — Jason Cammisa & Derek Hyphen — Ep 108 Aug 14, 2023
    Show notes

    This is the Surprise Bugatti Episode, and it happened when Jason revealed that the Bugatti Chiron Replacement would have an electrified V-8 engine.


    What resulted is Derek Tam-Scott admitting he knows nothing about Bugatti's history, but reciting it like an encyclopedia anyway. Jason has some experience with vintage Bugattis and a lot of experience with the W-16-powered Veyron.


    And both of them agree: a V-8 isn't the correct engine for a Bugatti — even if it's a bespoke unit and not the VAG-group corporate 4.0-liter twin-turbo V-8.


    However, they could be wrong: the Carmudgeons have both driven the Rimac Nevera, and it's absolutely spectacular. It could be that Mate Rimac and his team will make an incredible followup to the Chiron that's worthy of the Bugatti badge.

    Radwood Is Not An Ordinary Car Show — The Carmudgeon Show Jason Cammisa & Derek Tam-Scott — Ep 107 Aug 07, 2023
    Show notes

    More than just a car show, Radwood is a time-period event — with music, costumes, and cars from the 1980s and 1990s.


    Derek Tam-Scott and Jason Cammisa attended the 2023 Norcal Radwood, which took place in downtown San Francisco for the first time — on a storied pier overlooking the city.


    The show's fascination is about far more than just the typical, expensive cars you see at Concours d'Elegance and such - it's filled with attainable stuff, including cars that were once ubiquitous but now are gone. Things like a perfect-condition Isuzu VehiCross, a pristine Previa, or a showroom Chevrolet Cavalier convertible.


    Jason brought out their new-to-the-Carmudgeons 1980 Rover 3500 (SD1), freshly back from its Canadian road trip home, and Derek brought his magnificent Citroën CX, which delighted the audience with its self-raising hydropneumatic suspension.


    But what were the stars of the show? You'll have to listen to find out.

    2023 Civic Type R vs 2024 Integra Type S — The Carmudgeon Show Jason Cammisa & Derek Hyphen — Ep 106 Jul 31, 2023
    Show notes

    Which is better, the brand-new Honda Civic Type R, or the Acura Integra Type S?


    That's the question the Carmudgeons answer this week — in a festival of Honda's Greatest hits, that also discusses the NA1-chassis original Acura NSX, the original Integra Type R, and the AP2 Honda S2000 CR.

    Filming Ultimate Drag Race Replay — The Carmudgeon Show w/ Jason Cammisa & Derek Tam-Scott — Ep 105 Jul 24, 2023
    Show notes

    What's it like on the set of Cammisa's Ultimate Drag Race Replay? This week, Derek finds out.


    Hyphen joined Jason and his team at Willow Springs during the filming of three different episodes — and gives his perspective of what it's like to be part of the production.


    The episodes haven't yet aired, of course, but this episode of The Carmudgeon Show podcast gives a sneak peak of what's to come.

    Everything you ever wanted to know about Citroën — but didn't know you wanted to know it.

    This episode of the Carmudgeon Show is all about the French brand Citroën, sparked by Jason's recent drive of Derek's magnificent CX.


    Purposefully weird, it's not only a monument of design, but of engineering, too, with incomparably smooth hydropneumatic suspension.


    Tune in to learn everything about the history of Citroën (including its Dutch name), the Traction Avant, DS, ID, CX, BX, and other models. And of course a discussion of modern Citroën, its history, and innovations.

    The Raptor R is Jason's Favorite Car — The Carmudgeon Show w/ Jason Cammisa & Derek Hyphen — Ep 103 Jul 03, 2023
    Show notes

    There's something wonderful about driving a vehicle that's the opposite of all the things you love. And for Jason, that's the Ford F-150 Raptor R.

    Jason, lover of simple, lightweight, nimble sports cars, is enamored of the Raptor R — even more so than the Bronco Raptor. Why? Because it's unabashedly what a Raptor should be. And everything that Jason ostensibly hates in cars:


    It's heavy, it's inefficient, it's loud, it's an automatic, it has forced induction, it doesn't go around corners or stop, and it's huge. But it's also perfect.


    Jason's highway encounter with a Rolls-Royce Cullinan made for some of the biggest laughter he's ever experienced in a car, and this leads the boys to discuss cars they love that are out of sync with what they typically appreciate.

    The Impossible Rover SD1 Road Trip — The Carmudgeon Show w Jason Cammisa & Derek Hyphen — Ep 102 Jun 26, 2023
    Show notes

    The Carmudgeons buy a 1980 Rover 3500, and attempt to drive it from Edmonton, Alberta, Canada to San Francisco — 1600 miles, over the Rocky Mountains.

    This is the kind of road trip that only the brave would attempt, especially in a 43-year-old British Leyland product that hasn't traveled that far in the previous 20 years combined.


    But Jason Cammisa and Derek Tam-Scott are brave, if not crazy, and flew to Canada to rescue their newly aquired Persian Aqua Metallic SD1.


    In this episode, the boys recount their stresses and successes, and teach us a couple things about the world's first 5-door luxury hatchback.

    Is There A Successful Facelift? — The Carmudgeon Show w Jason Cammisa & Derek Hyphen — Ep 101 Jun 19, 2023
    Show notes

    Has any automotive facelift ever made a car better than its original design?


    This episode of the Carmudgeon show is sponsored by Lucid Motors, who has special lease and finance offers on available 2023 models of the Lucid Air Touring and Grand Touring. Visit lucidmotors.com for offer details.


    What Carmudgeon episode would complete without a discussion of Bruno Sacco's Mercedes masterpieces, including the W201, W124, W140, and R129?


    Then, there's the Ferrari lineage: 246 Dino to 308 GTB to 328 GTB to 348 tb to F355.


    And perhaps the most successful facelift ever, the Bangle-Butt BMW E65/E66 7-series — which was vastly more successful in showrooms after BMW"s "LCI," or "Life Cycle Impulse," BMW-speak for a facelift.


    There's the Mk1 Volkswagen Golf, with the Clipper Kit Cabriolet and the Citi versions, the BMW E30, the Jaguar Series III to XJ40 to X300 to X308.


    And what if all the Radwood-era cars only got prettier because of relaxed and harmonized bumper standards, like the W116 Mercedes S-Class did when it was replaced with the W126.


    Discussed is also the Lamborghini Countach, Renault R5 Turbo, Lancia Integrale and Evo.


    And of course the Ferrari Testarossa Monospecchio, turned into the Testarossa, the 512TR, and ultimately 512M.


    How about BMW's prime era of the E38 and E39 and E46? The original Chevrolet Cavalier? The ovoid Taurus? Or just the Miata NC Miata, in NC1, NC2, and NC3 revisions?


    It's all an interesting discussion and a fun brain-dump from two curmudgeonly car experts, one of whom probably needs a facelift himself soon.

    Hoarders R' Us: We Bought More Cars — The Carmudgeon Show w Jason Cammisa & Derek Hyphen — Ep 100 Jun 12, 2023
    Show notes

    This 100th episode of the Carmudgeon show is sponsored by Lucid Motors, who has special lease and finance offers on available 2023 models of the Lucid Air Touring and Grand Touring. Visit lucidmotors.com for offer details.


    We've made it to episode 100! This week, Jason and Derek confess that they've bought another couple of cars: Derek took delivery of his gorgeous Bornite-purple, dogleg 5-speed-manual Mercedes S124 wagon. And a JRG W140 S420.


    ...and Jason bought his first shared-car. He and Derek purchased a 1980 Rover SD1 3500! This has been a dream for Jason for (literally) 30 years.


    What Jason Cammisa and Derek Tam-Scott did NOT record is the long-awaited Piëch-isode. Why? You'll have to watch for yourself.
