Ep 5. Puddins Fab Shop | In the Aisles w/ Derek Bieri

You never know what-or who-you’ll run into in the aisles. In this episode, Derek talks to Jacob from the KZbin channel Puddin’s Fab Shop. Hear Jacob discuss his journey from jet engine mechanic to “I wasn’t cut out for customer service.” He talks about his work on Datsuns, box trucks and Internationals, his dream of owning a ’64 Impala Wagon, and his lying under a truck in a flash flood, bench-pressing a transmission into place. At which point, Derek and Jacob agree: wrenching in the rain is the worst.

Vice Grip Garage has been gracin’ the interwebs since 2019 and has persuaded countless clunkers to run over years. Maybe only half of ‘em had brakes (and that’s being generous). Derek focuses on budget builds, rescues, and how to's for the common folk. From classic cars to tractors Derek has been there and driven it home 600 miles.

We desperately need a Derek and Puddin collaboration or 3. These 2 NEED to work together on something cool!

[@dsc420247]

Puddin can interview Derek next!!!👍👍

[@jmadden805]

That would be a collaboration for the ages.

[@greylocke100]

I've been thinking the same. Maybe Derek and Puddin can swap projects for a charity build.

[@MaxNafeHorsemanship]

I would watch it for sure.

[@joshuajohnson7332]

Awsome my 2 favorite utubers

[@rebelonwheels]

I'm Puddin's Logo, Tshirt & sticker designer. I create the majority of his merch from day one. And i have to say, Jacob aka "Puddin" is as humble and a great guy to work with. I'm proud to see my art do so well. And i've grown to be a fan of his channel over the years. In fact i'm working on the "Luv Tap" design as i watched this video. I'm also a fan of vice grip garage. This interview made my day.

[@benjaminjohnson2888]

Great job sir, those are fabulous designs.

[@buckeyejim2989]

Would love to see Fab Rats also

[@sshomesteaders1776]

[@tildenharper]

Totally agree with your great choices. Polebarn Garage is an awesome channel and I've met him and he's a good guy.

[@PoconoJoe13]

Wow looks like we are all following the same you tubers !!

[@goaway3717]

These are the 2 automotive guys I watch most consistently because no matter what they're doing it's all entertaining and fun to watch. I love these guys attitude on what they do more than anything. I have absolutely no talent or real interest in doing automotive things so it seems weird to me that I love watching what they're doing but I think it's more that they do what they do in an fun way more than anything.

[@That70sChannel]

Same.

[@robertwilliams2623]

I remember the video that puddin quit his fall time job and so happy to see how much he has grown he's channel. He worked this butt off for what he got and he deserves more

[@akubura]

Derek helped me get over my fear of messing up my car if I work on it, and here comes Puddin' the most stand up dude out there who motivates me to be a better father, worker, heck just a better person in general. These guys are my fuel each week to keep crushing life. Right now I'm a 38 year old with two jobs and just enrolled in college and I'm going to crush it like a Towrolla with mud tires.

[@tallboy2234]

[@sethbarnes7608]

These are the 2 funniest guys ever. Can't wait to see a collaboration with these 2

[@THETuerre]

What I love about the KZbin Auto Resurrection genre is that all y'all get along so well. It's a community rather than competition. Props to Orielly for supporting 'Tubers like Derek and Puddin. It is nothing short of brilliant marketing.

[@greenpoles]

Dang, how long have I been waiting for this one? Moses' sandals! It's been a minutes. Thanks to Derek and Puddin to putting this on.

[@shanes_bs2659]

Finally it's the Derek and Puddin interview!

[@IR-nq4qv]

2 awesome dudes just jawing , you gotta love it! Thanks Derek & Jacob for all you do...Thanks O'Reilly for making this possible.

[@chrisgolding1259]

Puddin is a humble solid craftsman. Glad your getting your shine brother!

Thanks for having us out!!!!

[@mikeys_Rydes]

Two of my favorite guys. Very hard workers growing their channels!👍🏻

[@vw0514]

Y'all got me through a rough year with health issues, and you gave me something to look forward to every week. I can't believe my two favorite KZbinrs on one show, but I got to... I'm looking right at it while your shootin from the hip!

Two really down to earth men , who love their kids , families and having a good time entertaining us all , love and respect to you both, 👍🇭🇲

Puddin is highly underrated

[@deuceinfinity]

The two coolest youtubers, with just a great sit down chat! Play this one back O'Reilly's make Puddin interview Derek now! THE FANS NEED A PART 2 TO THIS ONE!

[@JimFlanagan4206]

Puddin, the Pott County Legend, has the best automotive content on KZbin. Every working class guy can relate and he's absolutely hilarious.

When I've had one of those days that everyone is getting on my case, from my mother down to my best girlfriend, I watch these two. Makes all days better.

[@kellismith4329]

Smokin in the boys room!

[@pfpdlt]

Top 5 (my opinion) vice grip garage, puddin fab shop, morske, junkyard digs, zip ties and bias plies are the top you tubers for automotive content i think

[@robertwilliams8010]

Puddin’s Fab Shop and Vice Grip Garage are by far my 2 favorites! The entertainment and how genuine both fellers are is a huge part of that. And these guys love their families and just have good souls. Thank you both for the awesome content you provide us with each week. God bless you both and your families 🙏

[@buckgraham9195]

My 2 favorite dudes! I watch them everyday, it can't hurt to watch them together and maybe some Mordskie too! 🎉

Cool interview with 2 guys that love bringing old cars back to life. Got to get Mortske in the seat soon. I think that would also be great to see.

[@robertserumgard2344]

Yup, its time.

[@joshlansford1706]

These are the only 2 car related "influencers I'm subbed to on youtube and I'd love to see these 2 just sit down and chat for a while. Not an "interview" with predetermined questions just 2 guys sitting down having a chat about life and wrenching.

[@braxtonnelson5375]

This popped up in my feed and I was like "Finally! These two are in the same place at the same time talking to each other!" I love all of their channels (since they each have 2) and it would be awesome to meet each of them in person. Maybe I should get out more...

[@unclejim2330]

My two favorite car channels, obviously for the humor. Puddin always has fresh stuff that makes me spit a beverage through my nose. 😂

[@Randrew]

Yup. I quit drinking alcohol a few years ago... now I have to suspend *all* beverages for the duration of a PFS video ;)

[@100PercentYourNeighbor]

Great interview! Two of my fav KZbinrs. Throwing this out there. O’Reilly should consider sponsoring a weekend “will it run” competition between @MortskeRepair, @PuddinsFabShop and @ViceGripGarage.@O’ReillyAutoParts supplies the parts! Winner gets bragging rights for first vehicle to run, drive, stop. And a homemade trophy. Audience votes for the winner

[@nicknackdaddyack]

Derek, Puddin, and Mortske! Would be hilarious!

[@aprilhilliard3302]

Great to see Puddin and Derek together...when you started talking about wrenching in weather, I immediately thought of Syracuse winter of '76 (I think). Had my '65 Dodge Polara 500 Sport parked behind a fraternity (yeah, I know, but don't start with me). Got it for free, it needed multiple freeze-out plugs, and everyone had already left for winter break, so there was nobody to help me. Said "I got this shot", crawled under her and made it happen. Started snowing just as I started, and by the time I was finished, the snow was about 15" deep, and I literally had to dig myself out from under the car! That was fun....

[@noahfuller197]

A couple fellers that definitely deserve their success. Keep it up boys

I'm so happy to see these fellas got along and had a great chat, when Puddin mentioned he had a talk with Derek at the track a few months ago, he seemed dour and a little angry. But I'm certain that was mostly due to him being tired and outta sorts from all the fans and meetings. This was a great chat. Fist bumps from Canada
