We asked, you responded, and we listened. So here it is – an ALL-NEW format for our Mustang Owner’s Podcast that incorporates several different aspects of the Mustang hobby all in a single, fast-paced episode that we call the “Mustang Roundup.” Why did we try this? Because we’d received so many emails about how we can keep growing the Mustang Owner’s Podcast that we thought it’s time to test out some format enhancements.
You’ll recall that John spent a whole episode seeking your input here:

It’s Time for Some Mods to Our Podcast –And Your Comments Will Fuel What We Do! Your responses helped us put this first effort together, incorporating many of the “Mods” you suggested in the Comments section and emailed to jclor@carsincontext.com.

We’d love to hear what you think.

People who’ve known John for many years will see similarities between this Mustang Owner’s Podcast “Roundup” trial episode and John’s popular cable access TV Show, which moved to YouTube years ago as CarsInContextTV - YouTube (Go ahead and check it out for yourself!). He figured, what worked then may still work now! But we’ll let you be the judge. So get set for a new podcast experience by watching til the end:
Mustang News Roundup:John: Why the Mustang Lineup No Longer Features a Shelby
Mike: ‘GTD Competition’ Obliterates Corvette ZR1X’s Record at ‘The Ring’

I Saw It On the Internet:

Set of Vintage Mustang Buttons on FB Marketplace
Today’s Hot Topic:
Is it Time for Mustang III?

(Could a clean-sheet Redo Make Mustang Great Again (and Sell in Big Numbers)?

Trivia Time:
What is the name of the famed 1975 Mustang II Fastback built by Roush Performance for Detroit-area street racer Joe Rugirello that terrorized the Motor City’s illicit racing scene throughout the late1970’s?

My Mustang Story:

You’re not gonna believe the story about how Ryan Girardot snagged his 2024 S650 Mustang GT on the same day he was supposed to be picking up a new Escape for his wife. (Yes, she’s still with him. Blame it on Mustang love that dates back to 1984.)

Mustang Mailbag:

John: An idea about sharing Mustang owners stories prompts a suggestion from one of the podcast’s biggest fans.

Mike: Watching the podcast with Chuck Cantwell Shelby GT350 Legend Chuck Cantwell Shares Inside Stories You Gotta Hear! brings a call for a GT350 reunion to bring together both the people and the cars that made this nameplate so iconic.

Here’s another fun Mustang Owner’s Podcast episode from the Halderman Mustang Museum in Tipp City, Ohio, just north of Dayton off I-75. This time John and Mike take you on a tour of the show field from the “Gathering At The Barn” all-Ford car show, an annual museum fundraiser event hosted by the Mustang Club of Ohio, and sponsored by Dave Arbogast Ford of nearby Troy, Ohio. Yes, this show had showcased the custom "Mach-X" award-winning show car – a vintage-looking 1969 Mustang Mach 1-inspired modern classic built off a 2012 Mustang GT California Special chassis by Zero-Given Garage. That’s why the boys featured the Mach-X in its own episode of the Podcast, including an exclusive test drive and in-person interview with Aaron Duncan of Duncan Brothers Customs fame, now the creative master behind Zero Given Garage. Go back to the channel and check it out!This year’s “Gathering” also featured special presentations (and an autograph session) by not one, but two famed Mustang designers – Bud Magaldi, Design Chief of the Fourth-Generation 1994 SN95 Mustang, and Bob Aikins, Chief Stylist for the Mustang SVO and the 1979 Mustang Indy Pace Car. What’s more, two members of the Mustang Club of Ohio – Dave and Pam Rose – were inducted into the Halderman Museum Mustang Club Member Hall of Fame in a ceremony emceed by John Clor himself.All that – along with this idyllic venue, some superb weather, an enjoyable food truck, mellow DJ, lots of celebrity-chosen awards and lots of really great cars on display – make this show one worth experiencing. Take a walk with John and Mike to witness some of these fine rides!

The Mustang Owner’s Podcast had the honor of kicking off Show Day Saturday at this year’s Carlisle Ford Nationals, recording a special podcast episode in front of the Fairgrounds Stage right after the 9 a.m. playing of the National Anthem. To showcase the podcast’s theme of “Everyone Has A Mustang Story, co-hosts John Clor and Mike Rey chose seven Mustangs representing all seven generations from some 2,500 Mustang show field entries as part of a special stage-front display. There, the owners shared their car’s story in live interviews recorded in front of hundreds of Mustang fans and friends who assembled in the Grandstands.The “7 Gens of Mustang Stories” participants were:1st Gen (1965-73) – 1968 Mustang GT Fastback Owner: Frank Radio, Franklinville, NJ2nd Gen (1974-78 / Mustang II) – 1978 Mustang II Cobra IIOwner: Arnold Rill, Westminster, MD3rd Gen (1979-93 / Fox Body) – 1980 Mustang Ghia CoupeOwner: Amy Rebecca, Mountain City, TN4th Gen (1994-2004 / SN95) – 2003 Mustang Mach 1Owner: Jonathan Woodward, Rutland, MA5th Gen (2005-14 / S197) – 2011 Mustang GT Owner: Bill Watkins, Wilbraham, MA6th Gen – (2015-23 / S550) – 2015 Mustang GT 50th Anniversary EditionOwner: John Olesuk, Long Island, NY7th Gen – (2024- Present / S650) – 2025 Mustang RTR Owner: Ben Nero, Milford, NHOur thanks to all of the above who appeared in this very special podcast episode, including all the fans in the Grandstands who came down after the recording session to meet the owners and check out their cars. And a special thanks goes to Carlisle Ford Nationals Show Manager Ken Appell (who promoted the live recording session and put it on top of Saturday’s action-packed show program), and Mustang Unleashed Influencer and noted Ford Performance photographer Joe Deladvitch (who managed all the episode’s recording duties). Of course, Carlisle hosts the world’s largest all-Ford show each June, featuring nearly every Ford, Lincoln, Mercury and even Fords from all over the world on the nearly 3,500-vehicle show field for a three-day extravaganza in central Pennsylvania of all things related to the Blue Oval. As usual, all sorts of other special events and attractions were planned this year – with 3,538 total entries, the second largest in the show’s history, beyond seeing all the hottest new Ford products – even the Mustang GTD – and thousands of classic and collectible Fords on display. Those included a 60th Anniversary Bronco Showcase celebrating the past, present, and future of the iconic SUV; a 50th Anniversary celebration of the Starsky & Hutch Torino, featuring three screen-used vehicles, nearly two dozen additional examples on the Showfield, and one of the stars of the television series, Antonio Fargas, who portrayed Huggy Bear. There were also displays commemorating the legacies of Roush, the Ford Taurus, and the Olympic Sprint special editions as well as all the other regular attractions such as the Vehicle Parades, Select Displays, Car Corral, Manufacturers Midway, the massive Flea Market and Vendors area, great food, the Women’s Oasis and even Kids Activities.
