    The Baddest Pod on the Block!
    OBS Talk is ready to shift gears and take these beauties back to the future! Happy New Year to Ronnie, his guests and new crew!

    Love it!!!
    I have been catching up on the last 6 or 7 episodes this weekend while driving tractor in Kansas, and I was pondering about what I love so much about OBS Talk. Binging it for 10 or so hours a day is so enjoyable, not just because of the trucks and the cool vendor stuff, but because every story that you guys tell is a story of family, of redemption, of lifelong dreams being realized, of the everyday person learning he or she can do big things, and more. Once again, you have made my long trip going back and forth into one of the best times I can remember! I even went over to C10 Talk for several hours today and found the exact same awesomeness over there. Thanks again, Ronnie, and look forward to seeing you at a big event again in the future.—Marcus Rogge, Sublette KS (93 RCSB SSweet N Low, 94 XCSB Prairie Rattler, 97 XCLB Old Paint, 99 XCSB Paladin, 00 CCLB Night Train)

    Blast from the past.
    So many memories are in these trucks for me. I grew up with these trucks, learned to drive in them! Met my wife while driving my first one. I’m addicted to this podcast now. Keep it going!

    First Podcast Ever Listening To. ADDICTED!
    I’m 29 and just recently bought my first OBS a month ago. Teal RCSB with a color matched ARE camper topper and have a 6/9 drop on it. I was told by a buddy to listen to this podcast and I can’t stop. I started all the way back to the beginning and listening every day. Keep doing what you’re doing. Learning so much. @dialupdanny_ on Instagram if you want to check out the truck!!

    Happy to find you guys!
    I own a 1989 OBS 2-wheel drive 5.7L 5 speed Cheyenne 1500. I run a collision and restoration shop and you always offer lots of really good information on builds. I love listening to your podcast while working! Much love and keep up the good work!

    Motivational
    Love the show!!!! I’ve had several of these in the past years and love them. Y’all keep me motivated on my 97’ Cheyenne scsb with a 5.3 swap and on intros.
  • @rdt_squaremax
    We all blame you
    Way to go Ronnie. To think I was ate up with trucks before I stumbled onto C10 talk I was hooked. Nothing better than hearing someone talk with big names involved in the trucks I learned to drive in. Doesn’t get much better right?? Wrong then he comes out with OBS talk. To talk about the trucks I learned to hot rod in throughout school. It’s your fault I have to have one of every body style Chevy since 72 LoL. Now if you wanna get OBSessed this is a must listen.

    I Just Bought an OBS
    I started listening a few months ago while lowering my ‘91 S-15 Jimmy. A few quick things: 1) I’ve been actively watching RAD since about ‘88 - my dad taped it when it was on HBO, or something. I’ve lost count, but I’ve seen it no less than 100 times. 2) Haro bikes 3) I always hated the square dash, but now I kind of prefer it, even though the OBS I bought is a ‘98. The particular ‘98 OBS I bought was from QA1 (through Facebook Marketplace), who used it as their development platform for their OBS coilover kits. Mine has their Level 3 front and rear kits and an AGR quick-ratio steering box and pump. QA1 is located about 35 miles from me, and I feel like that fact coupled with this podcast made it too hard an opportunity to pass up. Thanks, and keep up the good work!

    Rad pod
    Love the pod guys. I really appreciate the hard work you guys put in to get us rad content. I’m onto my 3rd obs so far, I’m sure it won’t be my last one. Looking forward to meeting you all at LST. Thanks, Nick P.s. - I nominate Arnie from PTTS for that east coast connection for a new moderator. #arnieforobstalk

    Love the show
    The show I one of a kind and love hearing venders and builders discuss about 88-98 trucks
  • Belowaveragec
    Feed that OBS addiction!
    Been listening to C-10 talk since day 1. Been a OBS fan since high school. I have had 11 OBS trucks over the years mostly extended cabs. Since I started listening to OBS talk the need has gotten too strong for another one so I found a regular cab short bed and picked it up for $800 delivered. Going to be a father son project so I can try and get that addiction in him. Keep up the great work love the show.
  • obsMorgan
    Killer shows!
    Ronnie, thanks for putting in the work and putting out such awesome shows! I recently inherited a 93 GMC long bed 1500 from my dad and am really looking forward to making it my own. LS swap and slammed stance are most definitely in the future for this thing. Thanks again!
  • Dustin96Duallay

  • dillydilly97
    Awesome podcast and great info!!
    This podcast is so informative and I love it! If you have a 88-98 Chevy truck, this is a must listen, I’m more into lifted trucks and they talk more about lowered race trucks, but still love this podcast. 98 k2500 ext cab.
  • Willie W OBS
    Best Truck Podcast out there

    The best Podcast EVER!!!
    Ronnie, you are the MAN!! Thank you so much for all that you are doing to bring the OBS scene back to its glory! Love the pod, can’t believe that it took me so long to find it. I have had my first OBS (RCSB 4x4 5Speed) for 20 years as of August this year and just picked up the OBS unicorn (93 Indy Pace Truck) that will go through a cosmetic restoration first and then power plant. All the guests and information being shared keeps the inspiration going. Keep up the great work!!

    Shorty’s pod
    This was a great podcast! I thought Mark and Shorty was the perfect combo for Mark to do his first one. Being a painter and around the same age as those guys I really enjoyed the stories of them reminiscing about the custom trends and the stuff we did back then. Keep the great content coming!!✌🏼

    OBS TALK
    I love these podcasts the best OBS talk in the world , I’m myself setting up a 89 OBS I can’t wait to see how much more info I can get from OBS TALK .
  • obs_cameron
    Awesome 💪🏽
    Great podcast with good ideas and discussions throughout the 88-98 Chevy/gmc platform.
  • Robert obs
    Love the podcast
    I’m 16 just bought my first truck last year. I got a 96 k1500. Got some aftermarket rims and parts installed here in there. I may not be able to do to much now because of the budget but I enjoy listening to the pod getting to know now about these amazing trucks and community.
  • JJM1990OBS
    Very Appreciative You Did This
    So cool that you put this together and you do a great job interviewing and getting awesome guests. Thanks for the work. While everyone has suspension parts (AZ Pro Performance killing it there and with the brakes!) these trucks need someone to step up and produce quality headlight replacements, steering, and repo interior parts. The interior plastics in these trucks are literally falling apart.
  • slammedbronco
    Killing It!!
    I’ve been listening to C10 talk for years now and it was easy to jump into OBS Talk! I was in the car for 20 hrs recently and binge listened to all the episodes! I’m a Ford guy but cool old metal is cool old metal! Keep the great content rolling and I will definitely keep listening!
  • JeffryMMartin
    Ok Ronnie, you win - Starting to like them
    As usual Ronnie and his guests bring the best talk on the topic and OBS talk is Munssey approved. A show so well done that it starts to convince even an OBS doubter like myself that these trucks are very cool. Maybe with more episodes, I’ll fully convert to being an OBS lover. Guest personalities are as cool and wild as the 90s neon paint jobs that covered OBS trucks. A show highlight for sure was Tricky Air Arnie who bright more plugs than a hair restoration clinic. Check it out and get hooked. 5 neon, pastel and leopard print paint job stars for this pod.
  • JKnudsen27
    Love this scene and this podcast
    I thought I did this when you put out the first episode on OBS Talk. But I am so glad you are doing this. I’ve had about 5 OBS’s in my life and it’s all I’ve really driven. Love these trucks. And I think you’re doing a great job Ronnie. Keep em coming. Loved the Alan Budnik legends episode. Can’t wait for more. Thank you thank you
  • k1500on35's
    Greatest pod!
    Love the pod definitely makes working on my obs that much cooler! I’ve owned 5 all square dash and currently have a 91 k1500. It’s awsome to see these trucks come back and kill it! Thank you for helping these trucks comeback. The trucks are cool but the people are cooler! 😎

    10/10 best truck podcast, every episode i look up every person, garage or build on the gram because the suspense kills me, love what you do! hope to see you out on a road soon from DFW TX! full time grocery store 22 year old with an ‘88 OBS, and the drive for the builds never stops #fire
  • JesseWsmith98
    OBS
    Around 2005 my dad and grandpa decided to make a show truck out of a 1996 single cab. My dad painted it maroon with ghost flames, lowered it, and some 15s on it. Long story short, when I turned 16 my grandpa gave the truck to me. 6 years later, I’m loving it still and will never get rid of it. It now has a 4/6 belltech drop with 20s and I did a brake upgrade on it. Keep up the great work! I’m loving the podcast.
  • FordFan786

    Keep dominating Ronnie!
    Hey brother my name is Brian (obstrends) and I can’t get enough OBSTALK! I’m 43 yrs old and I started driving in the heart of this OBS scene. My first vehicle was an ‘88 stepper and I’ve owned more than I can count since, these trucks are in my blood through and through. Keep doing what your doing Ronnie and keep being on the forefront of making this scene grow. Thanks again brother! 👊🏻
  • Chuy OBS
    Great Podcast!

    I learn so much from the show!
  • Door Dragging Chevy
    Since 96
    I began listening to podcasts 3 weeks ago and this has become my favorite. I have a 90 Silverado I’ve been upgrading to the ground since my dad got it for me to drive at 15 years old. It started as a sport truck when first bought. I got it published in Sport Truck Mag in their first Bustin’ Knuckles feature(Jan ‘05 issue). Listening has got me motivated to get back on it after it’s been sitting for 6 years, due a bad deal with a shop. Keep up the great guests and content! Matt
  • Dean Legler
    Awesome
    The Show is great. Listening makes me want it actually by an OBS truck to be part of the scene. Thanks for all the great content.
