Your opinion matters, and I will greatly appreciate your support.
Bogi’s interview was the most upbeat, interesting one I’ve heard on Cars Yeah to date.
She is so optimistic, I love her Can-Do attitude. She is definitely someone I’d love to meet in person.
I hope that all of her fans from All Girls Garage find and listen to this.
Thank you Mark & Bogi for a very fun to listen to, insightful Podcast.
Bogi, Please encourage your sidekicks Christie Lee & Rachel from AGG to come on with Mark for their interview.
I’d also love to hear Jared & Lou from Car Fix’s stories also.
Keep making shows, I’ll keep watching!

BTW Bogi & Mark, besides Mustangs I used to own 70’s era Saabs including a 78 EMS Turbo. What’s your thoughts on those. I’m sad that GM killed Saab.
Bogi, you are my favorite on All Girls Garage. The other ladies are awesome too. My name is Terry and I live in Campbell Ca. I have been a car and motorcycle nut sine I was little. Hopefully you will be at some cars shows this side of the country so I can meet you and talk cars which I love. Wish you all the best in your career. Take care and have a wonderful holiday.
