- On this episode we find ourselves at Jimmy Oakes shop in Connecticut! Jimmy is an automotive content creator, a parts retailer, and a drifter! If you are not aware of him, make sure to go check out his CZcams in the link below and follow him on social media. Jimmy was nice enough to let us stop by while we were running errands picking up parts nearby. He is a true automotive enthusiast and I believe that shines in this podcast. We get his origin story all the way up to present day. We also got a look into what is involved with becoming a CZcams content creator. A lot was learned on this trip. I was also taken back by the amount of top notch work I saw in his shop on our visit. By the time we left we were telling him to open a restoration shop for these old Japanese cars! Our first traveling podcast episode was a complete success and we hope to do more this year!

This whole podcast hit so many points I think about in life daily and things I faced in college. Tryna to make life work and hearing y’all have similar experiences and making things work is inspiring!
I a : I’m I’m
“Jimmy saying If anyone’s has been here for 3 hours” I’m like yup that’s me 😅😂 love this podcast , the vibes were great!
If Jimmy ever quits CZcams it would mess up my morning routine a lot he’s a good guy
man the time jimmy was in LA i met him at a car meet i had just got my beat hatch with a NA sr swap ,shit paint, ugly wheels and dude still showed came up and showed love and was surprised that i had a NA Sr and was cracking jokes, i gave me suggestions but he still clowned why NA 😂😂 got to say one of the coolest youtubers I've met in person ! it's mind blowing to see how far he's come ! great episode !
Jimmy isnt just my favorite automotive youtuber, hes my favorite youtuber period! The only patreon I pay for and the first "merch" Ive ever bought. Hes been genuine, humble, down to earth and just a good ass dude since day one. I knew with the right budget and team he'd build some insane shit so I always supported as much as possible. Not only is he finally making a decent living with a ton of amazing cars, he brought his friends up with him and seems to have stayed true to who he is. Crazy whats been done with less than than 1 million subs. The channels hes showed us have been rad too. Proud to have been a part of the journey and I'll be here til the wheels fall off. Dope podcast dudes! 3 hours went by fast af!
Agreed! Also the 1st merch I've ever bought was from him
It's pretty amazing to see Jimmy actually relaxed and open. You can tell he's more reserved in his videos and tries to keep it as "clean" as possible. He's actually a really funny guy.
This deserves wayyy more views, great pod
Jimmy is the best been watching him since his mom’s garage he’s apart of my routine for yrs now
Hearing about Jimmy's college experience was very relatable. I was too far away to go home every weekend but it did get to a point where I was like "just gimme the fancy paper so I can leave." haha. So hyped you guys made this episode happen. Keep up the great work!
“Scared money don’t make money”
Facts.
Jimmy is one of the best in the biz. a real dude with a big heart and a great collection of builds.
I have never sat through a 3hr podcast before let alone watched the whole thing 😂 the on camera chemistry between you guys is awesome!
Jimmy is probably one of the most humble and just chill guys I’ve ever met. Met him a few times, and he’s just so low key and humble. If anyone hates on him they suck.
I relate so hard to this story. I had zero friends in college and hated every minute of it. I drove from Tampa to Orlando every weekend to do car stuff and hang out with my real friends. Saving every scrap of money and doing every bit of random side work to make money for parts. Finally graduated with info tech degree and I’m a Nissan tech now😂 crazy how many of us had the same college experience
great podcast, i love this man so much. he’s a huge role model for sure to my group of car guys here and my biggest inspiration. Love how humble and intelligent jimmy is. Everything he says sticks with you and hits you with intent from his confidence.
This honestly just inspired me so fuckin much
Look along time ago Jimmy talked about leaving CZcams and I couldn’t comment enough no because he’s great at what he’s created he’s positive he’s great at creating videos he’s a routine for us I’ve preached this for yrs CZcams needs Jimmie’s
Jimmy there’s so less hate on your ch. then any other CZcams channel google it Jimmy gets more love then any car CZcams ch.
Jimmy is the man. Always my favorite CZcamsr. This was a good listen
jimmy is an amazing tuner and good friend and person .... HE IS SO TALENTED AND WITH ELITE TASTE OF MODIFYING .... love from cairo egypt
The T14 question HAD ME! When I was in the industry I was chompin up all the deals that I could 😂
LOVED this podcast with Jimmy, looking forward to more content from you guys ❤️
Jimmy there’s nobody that hates you and if there is it’s a tiny amount you just notice the small amount because it’s what bothers you there’s way more ppl that love you he has to know this
A1 all day! I was glued till the end!
You guys gotta have Jimmy back on!!
Tell him!
love it~ what a unrael ,see u around.💯
This pod was great, really motivated me to start getting after it
Learning that jimmy dealt with and goes through the same shit as me, and enjoys doing the exact same shit. It gives me hope for the future
Make some more reels of this podcast it’s full of gold!
When I done Mechanical Engineering I was lucky to find a fellow car nut in my year and he ended up being from the same town we ended up driving to college every day together it halfed the cost of travelling to college 🎓 💯🤙
this podcast was sick! cheers for the motivation guys
Jimmy intelligence shows with his tuning ability......good chat
I am west coast and older but I was a Volkswagen bug guy and 69 67 camaro guy
Great job everyone
Man I wish this got recommended to me sooner. I had bothered him about that black IS back then too, still wish he built that car 😂
I know Jimmy well enough to know he could spend 20k happily rolling dice, no shame either
Something that would be awesome is for jimmy to take all of his employees and put them into his cars and go for a car ride together.
Great 3 hours ❤🥰🤘🙌
Man the good olde days when the only car CZcams channel around was haggard garage😂 before all the drama
Love the red dog beer knock off poster
Jimmy you could sell some of your cars, buy some new projects and build them up and do it all over again
The FC is beautiful to me
yo this was a great episode 🙌🏼
“You’re not selling wallets.” BWAHAHAHAH 😂 Ouch.

Loved this podcast with Jimmy!!
Mind sharing what audio mixer/board you use with the sound effect buttons?
RODECASTER PRO II

Kind of bummed Jimmy didnt shout this out. Luckily algo did its job albeit 3 weeks late
Jimmy pushed Adam lz into drifting so probably pushed him more into cars
Street meats and cauliflower soup

2:59:26
I like to call it “embrace the suck”
How about the shop that burned down Jimmy
Bro I’ve watched Jimbo slice since he started and I’ve never related to him more then in this podcast
Ok. I'll sub.
🎉
I went on a red and black randomizer and it came up red sorry
Jimmy just need to start actually driving his cars instead of thinking he only needs to build cars I personally hate that he thinks that way as I just want to see him improve as a driver
FIRST 20 STACKS A N**** GET HE JUMPIN ON A BRICK
Who’s the guy in the hoodie on the left front he’s kinda useless on camera
He says nothing
This is the best podcasts ever 😎🤌
