Real people Real cars Real Nutella 👌
This is a real bona fide talk about all things cars, life, careers, business and...nutella! Listening to Doc dog and CJ is like hanging out with your close group of car friends at a local cars and coffee while sipping on hot coffee and munching on a Nutella filled donut. 👌

My Favorite Automotive Podcast!
The Throttle Dogs quickly became my favorite automotive podcast due to the knowledge and humor that is displayed between CJ and Rich. Keep up the good work!

Fun and factual discussion with true car lovers
Candid discussion about cars and related topics that are relevant to a broad audience, not just gear heads. I’m all caught up and looking forward to the next podcast.

Perfect for any Automotive Enthusiast
These guys have great chemistry and a lot of great insight on what it’s like to be a supercar owner. The best part is they do it without sounding pretentious (like many supercar owners usually do)

Informative, hilarious, real, no fluff or ego. Just cars and racing. (Rare I know)
Have listened to every episode, as I am an avid car and Motorsport enthusiast. This episode (or two part series) is hands down the best yet. A lot of detailed and articulately delivered information about super cars and racing in various capacities. Who would have thought that two very successful guys ( in their own worlds, respectively) would have so much knowledge on another topic, especially Motorsport. Where do they find the time? I think the answer is passion. I don’t know how they can be so good at sharing their insights from their on-track experiences as well as memories of times during their professional careers. One of the hosts is a surgeon who is tasked with performing life-saving surgeries, and the other is a renowned MLB Pitcher (retired) turned Racer, Car dealer. Both of their professions required precision. Failure came with heavy consequence. I think this helps give them credibility in their podcast because while they joke around a lot, and have fun with it, they really do take racing very seriously. They have invaluable insights to things most of us will never have access to. They respect motorsport. They know what it takes to compete. They love cars and appreciate/ celebrate the best in automotive engineering. These dudes leave the ego at the door and they like to party!

Great show for people who are truly interested in cars, racing, and car culture.

Funny, informative, insightful, and entertaining
I love all of the car knowledge along with the funny car takes. I also think it’s hilarious when they roast people. The medical stories combined with the baseball stories are an added bonus. I won’t miss an episode.

Another great car podcast
CJ and Rich have a good rapport and cover interesting topics, with enough personal stories and knowledge to be entertaining and informative. Pretty funny too.

My favorite podcast
Awesome to listen to. If you're a car guy, you'll feel like you're listening to similar conversations you've had with your buddies. It's awesome.

Great podcast
I’m not a big podcast person, I only really listen to 2 of them, but these guys always always make me laugh. A very good listen imo

Good stuff
These guys are exactly how we hope we would behave if we were in their shoes - seriously not taking themselves seriously. Informative and entertaining. If you love cars, this podcast is for you. If you enjoy just listening in on interesting conversations covering all sorts of wacky topics, this podcast is probably for you. If you like Nutella, this podcast is definitely for you. Keep up the great work Rich and CJ! 5 leg humps and 5 hazelnuts!

Soundtrack to my commute
Easy way to burn through an hour or two. Wildy different perspectives on the 'scene'. Give it a listen and learn about hazelnuts and leg humps.

I thought this was about Nutella & dogs?
Very misleading title, these two jokers tried to pull a fast one on us. I came here for Nutella and I assumed advice on how to throttle dogs.. not that I would want to as I love mine but maybe in a real emergency? Anyway, I don’t understand what is going on here.. but I gave them a 5 star rating because I’m sure eventually they’ll get to the Nutella part..

Unique on Every Level
Fantastically entertaining, shockingly down to earth, and many other positive adjectives. Only podcast I’ve ever checked for episodes every day. The way these two dogs lay out success and the driving force cars had/has on their careers is extremely relatable and inspirational. It’s a definite treat. Dog treat that is🤣

Great pod. Very entertaining. Rich could be a little less monotone but both dudes are awesome and I’ll keep listening.

Great combination of knowledge, fun, and "let's just say what we think."
So far so good. A great listen on drives. They have a great chemistry, both are deeply knoweldgeable, and both have the balls to call out some people in the car world. They also talk about the world of automotive social media - which is often left out in traditional auto media. It's exciting to see a new attitude to the scene... I'm lookign forward to more!

Podcasts are the new “I’m a DJ”
Rich and I met on instagram! I really enjoy doing this podcast and can not wait to start putting some TV sriracha together. Most car dudes are snobs and have no feel for the community- we still wear blipshift t shirts and eat burgers in our cars.

FANTASTIC Podcast!!!
This has to be my new favorite podcast! It’s a fresh take in a new look at what an automotive podcast or show can be. CJ and Rich have excellent chemistry and I have an insane amount of knowledge, plus it’s really refreshing to hear things from the perspective of and get the viewpoints from owners rather than media! This is a definite #1 podcast and I think it has the potential to be bigger than just a podcast! Keep it up dogs!!!
