You know, here in my car I feel safest of all . I can lock all my doors. It’s the only way to live. In cars. Well, with all due respect to Gary Numan, this movie may give the lie to that sentiment. Yes, this week we’re taking on “Cars 2,” the sequel to . . . ok, you can figure that one out.

Give a listen, hear what we think (and smell what we imagine) and also enjoy our ravings, I mean, the TRUTH about the terrifying secret of the world of . . . Cars 2.
