Hello and welcome to Mom's Car. Oh, what a pleasure it is today to introduce you to Nate Tuck. Maybe if you listened to Armchair Expert, you would have heard him tell an incredible rattlesnake story on Armchair Anonymous. But Nate and I have been friends from, I don't know, virtually since I moved to LA. 30 years we met in the groundlings. He's just the sweetest guy. He produced the three movies that I've directed and I call him my creative soulmate. It's not often that I get to hang out with my East Coast and West Coast best friend, but it was a blast. Please enjoy Nate Tuck. You know what's smart? Checking Allstate First for a quote that could save you hundreds on car insurance. You know what's not smart?

Riding with three people in a car was standard biz from 16 to 22. And then as you become an adult, you're never just cruising around in a car. You're right. They're with your buds. Yeah. We did so many years like this. Yes. It's just very nostalgic and very fun. Nate, is this the longest you've had off work in five years, this 90 minutes you've committed to this?
I'm so happy. I had a huge meeting this morning.
He was on a meeting walking through the door here.
I was. Yeah. Yeah. I was on speakerphone. Always. Your tombstone will say he was in a meeting.
Oh, man.
He died doing what he loved, taking a meeting. I walked in with my phone up to my mouth. The doors open, and that's how weakly he saw me. No, we didn't run a 4K. We ran a 10K. 13.5. 13.5.
13.5. No one said 13.2. Guys, better hold the four down for the next 90 minutes. I bet everything's going to fucking fall apart.
All this shit in your absence. You don't have the acceleration you usually do, big guy.
Oh, yes, I do. This thing's got a lot of get up and go. Oh, look at that. Yeah, the joke about this car is I was like, Kristen, let's get you something rad. Like, let's get a fucking Escalade or something. What'd she say? This is her car. She loves it. And I'm like, oh boy. But I have been driving it every day to school in the morning for years now. And now you love it. I fucking love it.
quiet it is in here. Yeah, it is kind of nice. No ADR necessary. I just felt for a minute you pulled out of your driveway and there was a car coming pretty quickly. 99.9% of the time, it's no problem because you have a lot going on. A lot of ponies under the hood. This, I was a little nervous back there for a split second.
I'm never nervous. Nate had an incredible idea for, was it your bachelor party? Because of you, yeah.
Yeah, we went out to the desert and rode the play cars.
Yeah, so Nate had ridden with me on the very first time I got that class one car. I had never driven anything like it. And we went out and the dude who I bought it from, you know, he's like, come ride with us. So much adrenaline.
And I had never even, he knew all about it.
Well, I didn't, but. I had never even watched it. I didn't know.
Dan pretended he knew all about it. Yeah, exactly. I didn't know the speeds. It's hard to fathom the speeds until you're in that thing with all open air around you and zero understanding of how the car stays on four tires.
How about his speech before we took off, too? Because we just jumped behind these dudes that have been doing this for a decade racing.
Right.
And the guy's like, okay, you fucking see something scary? Hammer down. It's always better to have the front end light. You're about to hit a tree? Punch it. Yeah. You want the front? And I'm like, oh my God. So every time I'm scared, Florida is the edict. That was true. Because remember, like we came around a corner and there was, what are they, arroyos? The water had come through and it was a pretty good sized cliff. It was. And the instinct was like, oh shit, there's a cliff.
