With Agent Emi

"Real Catalytic Converters" only consist of the OG two-way converters from the 70s and the refined three-way converters of the 80s. What is known as "aftermarket universal converters" is nothing but knockoff emissions tech with questionable real catalytic influence. When people try to argue that modern, high-flow converters are not real catalytic converters, while saying that OEM converters are, I can't help but cringe because they are just as fake catalytic as cheap eBay parts (plus the inefficiency). Real catalytic converters work CLEANLY, EFFECTIVELY, and somewhat MERCILESSLY against hydrocarbons. Fake converters are inefficient, poorly designed, and a failed attempt to direct exhaust gases and reduce pollution properly. Some examples of REAL CATALYTIC CONVERTERS are the OG Johnson Matthey designs, CARB-certified units, and genuine OEM Toyota converters. Some examples of FAKE CATALYTIC CONVERTERS are knockoff eBay parts, test pipes labeled as "performance converters," and anything labeled “universal” that can’t even pass an emissions test. CATALYTIC CONVERTERS BELONG TO EMISSIONS CONTROL, NOT TO PERFORMANCE MODDERS, CHEAP MANUFACTURERS, OR ANY OTHER POLLUTION-IGNORING TREND.

KEEP IT GOING.

heyyyyy y'allllllll

we are SO back

HI JON

Hello and welcome back Agent Emi!

HIIIII ROB

we missed you

loving this new time slot

This I Would Set Myself On Fire For You song almost sound like Guy Picciotto from Rites of Spring & Fugazi is singing

YES YES YES

god

that is the perfect description

rites of spring if you can hear us save us

Drink deep, it's just a taste, and it might not pass this way again

!!!!!!!

Biologist/birder me loves "spectacled bear vs. convulsing scout" as a title

good thing bears don't actually sound like that :-)

hahahaha i kind of wish they did smh

Agent Emi, do you ever listen to A Minor Forest? They have a melodic into yelling / chaos and back again over a 12 minute song thing I suspect you would appreciate...

🐻 🎤

I LOVE a minor forest!!! i played "the dutch " on my show 2 seasons ago!!!!!

Excellent. My work here is already done!

always appreciate a rec thoughh!!!

Le Banger.

in a french accent is key

oh dope, this is your slot now! sick; my fall has just been made

YES! sooooo stoked i am so glad you are tuned in!!!

Yay!

yayayayyayayaa

Man, I just don't get why you take a show this established at a certain time slot and move it. I guess there's some things about college radio I don't get and I'll still take it over commercial radio any day. But I don't know this doesn't make sense to me.

Love!
