The Carmudgeon ShowAuthor: Hagerty Media
Part of the Hagerty Podcast Network, the Carmudgeon Show is a comedic, information-filled conversation with Jason Cammisa and Derek Tam-Scott, two car enthusiasts who are curmudgeonly beyond their years. Proving you dont have to be old to be grumpy, they spend each episode talking about whats wrong with various parts of the automotive universe. Despite their best efforts to keep it negative, they usually wind up laughing, happy, and extolling their love for cars. Which just makes them angrier and more bitter. Jason Cammisa is an automotive journalist, social-media figure, and TV host with over 300 million views on YouTube alone. Jasons deeply technical understanding, made possible by a lifelong obsession with cars, allows him to fully digest whats going on within an automobile and then put it into simple terms for others to understand. Also, a Masters Degree in Law trained him to be impossible to argue with. Derek Tam-Scott still tries. Hes a young automotive expert with old-man taste in cars, and a Masters Degree in Civil Engineering which means he knows how to be civil to Jason. Or at least he tries. With a decade and a halfs experience buying, selling, driving and brokering classic and exotic cars, hes experienced the worlds most iconic cars. And hated most of them.

Monday, 9 March, 2026
What makes you the car enthusiast you are today? It’s an idea we don’t always think deeper than surface level about, but one that is intrinsically associated with our connection to cars and the community that surrounds them. === Visit http://JasonSentMe.com to get a Hagerty Guaranteed Value (TM) collector-car insurance quote! === Jason found an instant connection with Volkswagen Beetles, buying his first at age 14. Derek took a liking to all things Porsche early on, being able to explain the difference between a Porsche 962 and 956 to his local specialty dealership at age 8. (Producer Mike learned how to read at age 3 by observing makes and model names on trunks and tailgates). Rather than focusing purely on the genesis of our car enthusiasm, today’s episode discusses our most formative years of being a young enthusiast and how those years shape us as adults. From observing neighbors and friends cars, to our first cars, to the driving experiences that set the pace for our automotive enthusiasm for years to come, this episode discusses the cars and life experiences that make us whole. Needless to say, no one journey is the same… Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
