That was amazing

Pretty typical path for 3rd gen nepo baby. Cash in your chips and then dick around doing lots of nonsense.

This guy seems like he's 95 years old.

Nice guy who doesn't know what he doesn't know.

Nepo baby.

Great interview. Thanks gentlemen.

Thank you so much to Jennifer for being such a great guest :)

I used to look on RA first but now that there is precisely 0 customer service and straight up wrong parts listings with inaccurate pictures Rockauto is starting to suck donkey balls. I bought rear shocks for my motorhome and they were wrong. The only thing you can do is send them back and with no guarantee they will send the right ones next time. Also you pay for the shipping back for a mistake on their end?!? So now it’s Amazon or parts geek where if they mess it up they at least pay the return shipping.

Great interview - Kim, you are humble, thoughtful, impatient (yet patient), and you have a great command of this industry. Keep advocating and sharing your wisdom...and to borrow from one of the quotes you referenced from Steve Martin...YOU are so great you cannot be ignored!

A very well organized and presented interview that stayed in touch with the underlying focus of women in the aftermarket.

Hey, I am Suhayb a 17 years old entrepreneur. I do short video editing and was wondering if I could do it for you, for free, no strings attached, just to help me get experience and to grow your business?

My mechanic says the 99 cent oil filter works just as well as the 12 dollar oil filter. Should I fire him?

Hey Rick - glad to see you are doing well!!

What a great ihra career the man was unbeatable

Rock auto is great to Canadian customers too

Great podcast. Rockauto is my go to catalog to buy and purchase parts. The O'reilley and Autozone in every town around me sells parts I am not comfortable using due to poor quality and OEM prices. Their staff at these places are also hit or miss. I would love to see Rockauto get a reman transmission supplier again. I have used a few remans with great success and at a reasonable price. I can see the complications though. A lot of the newer transmissions have the TCM built into the trans that requires a reflash.

A decent amount of changes this year. I hope things are moving smoothly for them.

Great video! Thanks for the recap!

Great interview!
