On the Feb 8th episode there was a good interview with MrBlaine about Black Magic brakes on the Jeep Talk Show podcast.

He spoke about a 10% discount on his website but I couldnt understand it.
Good job, Sir (MrBlaine). With ALL due respect; After years of seeing your extremely knowledgable, but somewhat condescending final comment posts on the forums. I have a NEW level of respect for you, Sir.
Personally, I'm NOT a malleable aluminum skid guy, so Savvys claim to fame is a no go for me. But Currie is awesome anyday.
But I'm an opinionated older SOB guy like you.
God Bless. You did excellent.

And then there is the obvious, if it was a failure prone application of materials, the internet would waste nary a second attempting the shove the failures down our throats in every aluminum discussion.
It may be all for some but I really enjoy educating folks on how stuff works.That’s all that really needs to be said.
People will write a shitty review on a $3 cable on amazon when it’s garbage.
Do we really think they’d shy away from lambasting a multi-hundred dollar item?
I’ve seen nothing but glowing reviews.
One of these days when the kids stop siphoning my Jeep fund in other direction, aluminum armor is on the list.
If we all do what we love to do we will make a contribution to people’s lives and the naysayers can kiss off. That’s the way I see it.It may be all for some but I really enjoy educating folks on how stuff works.
I thank you and offer up a bit of something from my study of humans. Arrogance and associated condescension is generally perceived as such by those that are wrong, not always but with enough frequency to warrant the rule to which there are as always, exceptions.
The fact that you used the word "malleable" means that like most anti aluminum folks, you don't fully understand what it can do and why it is a great choice that typically defies our preconceived notions and ideas of what we think about aluminum.
If malleable were the key property of aluminum alloys used for skids (definition-(of a metal or other material) able to be hammered or pressed permanently out of shape without breaking or cracking.) it would not be desirable for such applications. In fact, great care has to be taken when working with the aluminum for skid and bumpers due to the ease in which it will break when forming it due to its resistance to being formed.
And then there is the obvious, if it was a failure prone application of materials, the internet would waste nary a second attempting the shove the failures down our throats in every aluminum discussion.
I didn't think you were abrasive, had you been, no worries since I use aluminum armor.Oh Geez. I shouldn't have mentioned Savvy. Abrasiveness aside...
I was actually trying to say that although we disagree on many points from time to time. Whether verbalized or just while I'm lurking on a forum....
I do have great respect for your knowledge in the Jeep world. And to comment that you did a great interview.
I'm sorry for being abrasive.
