Episode #068:
Once the silliness subsides between our cohosts because Janet stumbles on her words. Somehow, she turns truck electrical into "truckaluckal" and you know Patrick enjoys when she stumbles on her words.

They are talking about electrical and how it pertains to the lights on Big Rigs. They reminisce about how “back in the day” you could pull thing out after banging on it didn’t work. And then just fix the light or the wire that was loose or frayed. But now, they exclaim! You must get permission to even change a trailer light or bulb, or loose wire. And they rewind!

Do you have basic knowledge of automotive/Rig wiring? Well, even if you do you have to ask for permission first from the company As they go through how it was when they both drove, they fill you with laughter and stories to entertain and inform you as well.

As they chit-chat they  manage to get out some very important information about lights, electronics, and tools. As Janet gives tips on how to do things if you don’t happen to have the right tools to do the job, Patrick (a.k.a. Mr. WD-40) of course teases and gives her crap over it. They still use all the old-time terms, like “chicken lights”. Be sure to listen for that sound that is in the background that brings out some unexpected laughter.

They even debate pigtails, (not Janets’ either), power inverters, wiring harnesses, brain drains, motorcycle trickle chargers, chrome,  and more! The things these two get into debates over!
