The Flag Time hosts all have experience with switching shops. So we tell you our experiences and give advise for those who may need to make that kind of move themselves. Don't do it on a knee jerk emotional reaction though, always make a plan. Plan your next move carefully so you're not hung out to dry. It's all strategy when you're dealing with the people with the money. Toolboxes have wheels for a reason, this week on Flag Time.

2026 is here. So is SEASON 4 OF FLAG TIME WHAT. New season, same humor. We talk about what we wanna accomplish in 2026. Some of us already achieving said goals which is nuts. So sit down with a good drink and snack as we air our grievances and aim to GET FIT this week on Flag Time

Many things were edited out. You can find a minimal cut version over on the Patreon when Serrated is done editing it cuz holy shit.

The automotive technician industry is flawed. Full Stop. In this weeks episode we discuss, complain, and brainstorm ideas of what can be improved. Elitist Flat Rate gatekeepers need not apply.
