Exploring the Intersection of Cars and Psychology In 2024

We are going full blown psych this week with guest Blake Brisboi. The youth psychologist with a very nice collection of classic cars talks about why many 'kids' these days don't have the mindset or the social skills to carry on the auto restoration torch. We dive into a topic that is dear to our hearts, the disappearing trade skills from upholstery to body work. Blake has his theories, see if you agree with him. We also look at his newest Citroen and his 3-wheel Morgan. We hope you enjoy this week's mind-blowing episode of West of Tulsa. And please, like, follow and subscribe.
