Bailey Clayton | Hand Paint vs. Vinyl. Why It Matters Who Wins
Bailey Clayton is a sign painter who taught himself the trade before he knew it had a name. He started with calligraphy in a school notebook and now points squirrel-hair brushes and oil-based one-shot at the sides of race cars, recreating historic liveries by hand. He stands for permanence in a world that re-vinyls everything every five years, and for the belief that a number painted by hand outlasts the business that commissioned it.Support Overcrest:https://patreon.com/overcrest

Paul Kramer / Selling Cars, Rallying, and How to Not Die.
Paul didn't set out to run a dealership. He set out to build a clubhouse for car people, and AutoKennel is what happened along the way.In this episode, I sit down with Paul, the driving force behind AutoKennel, the Southern California shop that has quietly become a gathering place for enthusiasts as much as a licensed dealer and brokerage. We talk about how a passion project turned into a real business, what sets his approach apart from the typical consignment outfit, and why the people around the cars matter as much as the cars themselves.Paul also opens up about his cancer diagnosis and the road through recovery, and how the experience reshaped his perspective on the business, the community around it, and what actually matters when you strip everything else away. It's an honest conversation, and one that goes deeper than the usual shop talk.Find more on Paul here:AutokennelShifted Opinions - YouTube

Forgotten Explorers of America / Pt 2
Past the edges of the maps were mountains that killed ten men at Christmas. A bridge in New York where a man became someone else every night for thirteen years. And an Arctic camp where twenty five soldiers were abandoned by their own government and left to eat whatever was left. These are the stories nobody tells anymore. Not because they aren't worth telling, but because the men at the center of them have faded into memory, replaced by time.Support this show: https://www.patreon.com/c/overcrest
