On the latest episode of the All Red Everything Podcast I'm chatting with Loz Glen, founder of Hardtuned.

A wild story of a kid from South Australian who had a keen interest in tech who went on to create a global automotive icon.

In the late 90's he imported a Nissan Silvia S13. This sparked the creation of nissansilvia .com, for those of us old enough to remember it became a titan of the scene.

The rise of social media giants in the late 00's became the death knell of the glorious days of forums. A hoodie was made and sold out to help cover the costs of servers.

What came next is about as wild a story as you could imagine.

A genuinely fascinating chat with an extraordinary man. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

Available now on Spotify, Apple and wherever you get your podcasts.

Delighted to welcome Dylan Cothill to the All Red Everything Podcast.

Hailing from South Africa, Dylan experienced the complexities of his home country first hand. Being stabbed in the rib cage for a camera was reason enough to look abroad.

The journey to Australia was a long one, with the UK being his first experience building a life in a new country. An S13 and a set of turntables... Quite the stories in this chapter.

Making his way to the land down under didn't happen until later and was far from a simple journey.

His company Skid Control came together like any great side quest, getting some friends together.

Now with a fleet of cars, constant events and a growing automotive community, Dylan has built something very special.

A wonderful chat with a fascinating man, I hope you enjoy this conversation as much as I did.

Miriam Payne and Jess Rowe are the powerhouse duo behind Seas the Day.

Having just landed in Australia, they share their epic story as the first all-female team to row nonstop and unsupported across 8,200 nautical miles from Peru to Australia.

From the raw challenges of massive swells, equipment breakdowns, and the mental grind of isolation, to the incredible moments few humans will ever witness.

A wonderful chat with two exceptional humans and I hope you enjoy this one as much as I did.

A humble titan of the Australian automotive scene. Mal Wood shares tales of 50 years building, designing and developing automotive solutions from his workshop in Warwick.

A long way from the strawberry farm where he made his first paycheque to get that dragster push bike, Mal found ways to build solutions for the challenges he faced.

Expanding to the USA, I first met the team in person at SEMA in Las Vegas back in 2024. Their under dash hydraulic clutch assembly took out SEMA Best New Product that year, no small feat.

A wonderful chat with a man who needs no introduction, but so happy to give this one as we share another record breaking 3+ hours of the All Red Everything Podcast.

I hope you enjoy this wide ranging conversation as much as I did.

Artist I believe is the best way to introduce the one and only Ally Mayhem.

Her creative talents are most obvious working as a tattoo artist, where her discipline to her craft shines. What blew me away is that she only started four years ago.

We met though drifting, where Ally and Grant Grinter have built their own series drift outlaws.

Ally shares the story of how she would drive to QR learning to drift, when she was working as an apprentice mechanic. Feeling out of place and uncomfortable, a guy came up to her window and said she was doing great. That guy was Levi Clarke. Forever a gentleman.

Remembering the awkwardness of learning, Ally launched Sakura Drift Days. A friendly and supportive way for women to come and learn to drift.

Ally has so much to her story and so much more to come. I hope you enjoy this chat as much as I did.

Dane Wilkinson hails from NZ, where he first learnt his craft. From backyard resprays for mates, to a pumping custom shop on the Gold Coast.

His mix of Cali Lowrider and love of drifting takes his custom shop to another level. Part of the reason his paint and panel business has such a list of stunning cars coming through the shop.

Raising a family, building a business and finding ways of building and expressing through automotive art are what set apart Dane and his shop LowCo Customs.

A privilege to chat with the main man and also learn about his deep love of offshore fishing! You can learn more and follow their work on the links below.
