Welcome to Spike's car radio. We're here with Magnus Walker. Friend of the show,

0:08.8

longtime friend. I remember a long time ago. Along back in the olden days, being on Sunset Boulevard,

0:16.0

getting coffee by the Tower Records. And I saw a beautiful 9-11 on the side of the road and then I saw what I thought was a homeless man breaking into this 9-11 and stealing it.

0:27.3

Well, about a week later, I got a call from the Esquire Network and they said, you know who Magnus Walker is?

0:33.5

And they sent me a picture of this guy. And it was him. It was this guy. And they said, would you like to do a little segment with him for our show? And I said, absolutely, tell me more about him. And that was how you and I, I think, were introduced. And now here we are all of these years later. Years. Literally, 13 years later, I think. A long time ago. Time flies when you have. Car matchmaker,

0:56.2

this show, you know, we hang out, and now you're selling cars. Now we're at a point where you're

1:03.8

getting rid of some of your cars. Tell us what's going on. Getting releasing. Releasing back

into the wilderness. You can relate to that, right? Yes.

1:11.6

On many levels.

1:12.6

I think we all can.

1:13.6

Yes. I mean, I mean, Jerry was just asking me about the green 718. When are you guys letting that go? I go any minute. How long you go? He goes, you don't get precious about, we've had it for what, seven months? He goes, you don't get precious about stuff.

1:25.2

And I go, not really anymore.

1:26.4

There seems to be an ebb and flow of things.

1:28.3

And I, you know, I find as I get older, I want to experience new things and new stuff. Variety of life. And I also like to curate. But tell us what's going on with you. Give us the whole picture here for those folks who don't know what's happening. Timings and everything. This year is my 40th anniversary of being in LA. Wow.

1:45.0

That's a long time.

1:46.0

I've been here 40 years.

1:47.0

I arrived in 1986 as a 19 year old.

1:49.0

Next year I'm turning 60.

1:51.0

So I'm reflecting back on where I've been and where am I going and what do I need and what means things to me and what is sort of not quite as relevant and important as it once was.

2:03.4

And I've been fortunate over the past 35 years to have owned a lot of cars.
