The Rag Company Podcast | A Detailed Look Inside Car Care Culture

110
Automotive #224

The Rag Company Podcast is all about car care culture through auto detailing, community-building and an unusual look behind the scenes of one of the world’s largest suppliers of premium detailing products. While companies and business-oriented programs often come across as stuffy, self-important and unrelatable, The Rag Company Podcast trio of Dane Hennen, Levi Gates & Anthony Fisher seek to buck that trend with their irreverent humor, lively community and a unifying goal of never taking oneself *too* seriously. (After all, we’re making cars shiny, not solving world peace)

    I can’t handle the snot sucking…
    Actual podcast is okay. Probably 2/3 helpful and 1/3 rambling. But man… I can NOT handle the host snorting/clearing his nasal passage. Not quite sure how to describe it. But the sound makes me gag.
  • IvanRamos
    Best Detailing Podcast!
    Is it true the delight listening to these guys talk about cars are passion detailing and giving out helpful tips and tricks that has helped them throughout their many years of experience.
  • Kacper Hil
    Listen to this podcast!
    I love listening to both podcasts although i don’t get to listen live most times it’s a great one to listen to dane levi and anthony anytime i’m detailing or driving!
  • Bummy G
    All around great podcast!
    Monday/Tuesday’s show are super fun as the guys go over their weekends. It’s great to hear what projects they were completing over the weekend. Then Thursday is the best free detailing advice you could get! They’ll answer any detailing questions you have, they have helped me out a lot and just overall great guys to listen to!
  • Ralph Deorio
    Rd from Jersey City NJ
    Listening at work in the Post Office working night shift 9-5:30. Love the camaraderie between these 3 superstars and the knowledge they share is unsurpassed.
  • Forced Induction
    Regular Bro session
    While I do mostly watch or listen to The Rag Company boys on one of their many YouTube channels, my employer just bought me a handy dandy iPhone so now I can make a review in apple world. These guys are great. Detail knowledge. Product demonstrations. A WHOLE freakin week of vendors stopping by to showcase their goods. Not to mention a weekly chill session to discuss weekend activities. If you are even remotely interested in detailing or maybe just want to hang out with the guys for a comedic hour or 2 a week while commuting to work. This is the show for you. Not just a grambassador but also a superfan
  • Soggy Dollars
    The best
    The Rag Company Podcast is, in my opinion, the best detailing podcast available. Not only do Dane, Levi and Anthony deliver a ton a valuable detailing information, they do so in such a way that makes it approachable for novices and pros alike. Couple that with an easygoing, unpretentious and frequently humorous delivery and you will not only learn a bunch, you will be thoroughly entertained in the process!! Keep up the great work, TRC!
  • Babblemaster
    Solid Detailing Advice and Entertaining
    How can it be entertaining to listen to three strangers talk about their weeks? Loose meats? The Deep South of California? Don’t know but these guys pull it off. To top it off they offer real help for detailers and truly build up on the strong detailing community. Keep it up guys and thanks for all the advice!
  • Dustin96Duallay
    Love this Podcast!
    As the title states, I love listening to this podcast while commuting or while in the shop detailing. What I really enjoy about this Podcast is that it is a detailing podcast that discusses real life as well. It’s like being a fly on the wall listening in on a genuine conversation, especially when the guys are discussing their weekends. I literally laughed my butt off when the “straight shaft” discussion occurred. Haha Keep it up guys!
  • be4tnut
    Learning so much!
    I just found The Rag Company recently and I have been learning a ton on how to maintain and protect my new car! Loving the content, and ordered some products to try out as well. Really looking forward to seeing how your microfiber compares to the 80/20 I have been using. The fact that you answer questions that are submitted is great too. My go to for detailing content!
  • Asink1
    Detailing’s Best Information and Entertainment
    This is a great podcast and I never miss an episode. I learn something new with each show. The team is very entertaining and has the industry’s best guests. Show production quality is also first class. I’m surprised this podcast has not been discovered by a larger audience. You should give it a listen — Hello, hello, hello - 5 stars!
  • Darrin Lee
    Waxstock to Back Stock!
    These guys are the best at helping anyone from a weekend enthusiast to professionals! Enjoy listening to them each and every week. You won’t find a more engaging and fun group!
  • G-Details
    TRC is better than a four day weekend without your family
    I consider the podcast more of a hanging out with friends session versus something I download on my Google machine. They’re fun, informative and most of all uniquely genuine. From the occasional risqué joke to news and info from the auto detailing world they’ve got you covered.
  • The Real Jeff C
    Love these guys
    If you're into cars, detailing cars, microfiber towels, inside jokes, or just want to listen to 3 guys talk about their weekends...this is the podcast for you. They have taught me so much, and they work for a great company to do business with.
  • 123nicknamenick
    ASMR fail
    I’ll be back when you stop doing 2 hours of ASMR. ASMR Fail Revised to 5 stars once again guys! Laughed so hard today when Dane read the review on the pod. I knew it would get Danes attention lol. Love you guys, been listening for years, even met multiple times at MTE Orlando. Keep up the great work- minus the ASMR. Lol. Anthony saying that friggen guy ☠️ P.S. Still will not listen to the ASMR for the “gold”
  • Jiggyjarjardoodeedee
    Meh
    I love the products, I love the knowledge that these guys have, buttt there is few and far in between useful knowledge. You have to sit and listen to hours of content of these guys just rambling on about nothing.
  • joey ppppo
    Love it
    Love the products and the podcast
  • BlaineEndo
    Great team chemistry makes it all come together
    Thanks for entertaining us and having great people on to learn how to use everything in your arsenal to detail.
  • kidder06
    These guys know there stuff.
    Great podcast. I would recommend this to anyone that in to car detailing.
  • RigdonRyan
    Proceed with caution
    You will become addicted to these quirky fellas and waste your life away listening to them. Don’t say you weren’t warned.
  • Dave Cervantes 243
    Second family
    These guys are the realest of real. They will not only keep you entertained but if you so happen to want to watch them live on their youtube channels (the rag company /the rag company podcast). You can interact with them. They will answer your questions with honesty and with as much knowledge as they can (which happens to be a lot). It is the right amount of humor and knowledge to keep you entertained. But the best part of all they will treat you like a second family because if you listen long enough thats what they will turn into.
  • Arevalobabies002

  • Vera Paz Annabell Garcia
    One of my favorite podcasts
    Love their content, their products and of course, their rags. I’ve worked In the collision repair industry for 7 yrs and Just started venturing into detailing about 2 yrs ago and I must say that listening to these podcasts really sparked the motivation to invest in knowledge. I stumbled up on onr while listening to Jimbo’s adp and it was then, that I opened the pandora box. Research on YouTube led me to opt and the trc and have since become my go to whenever I have a questions relating detailing and paint correction. Love their creature towels, dry me a river, I use their rags for all of my correction work. I Keep up the great work!

    Detailing Podcast and SO Much More!
    The Rag Company alone is one of the best companies I've ever done business with. The fact that they extend their customer services and relations to a podcast platform makes life even better! Dane, Levi and Anthony are some of the best podcast personas in the industry and they're easy to listen to. Humor and fun-packed podcast here. Listened to every episode that overlaps with youtube and can't wiat for Tuesdays (sometimes Mondays) to roll around to get my fix! Keep up the great work, TRC team.
