Dan Franklin + Metal Militia M.C.

The Rollback Show

When the neon glow of the city lights meets the roar of engines, it's not just about horsepower—it's about heart. Join me, The Hood Florist, and my esteemed guest D. Franklin, the founder of Metal Militia Motor Club as we navigate the twists and turns of car culture, from the adrenaline-fueled underground takeovers to the community-forging power of organized car meets. Daniel brings a wealth of experience, from his roots in the scene influenced by his mechanic father to his pivotal role in steering enthusiasts towards more respectful gatherings that pay homage to our shared passion while prioritizing safety.
This episode throttles up a conversation that's turbocharged with stories of evolution within the car community, where the rubber of personal anecdotes meets the road of broader cultural shifts. We share the visceral experiences that underpin our love for the scene and the sobering moments that have redirected our course. You'll ride shotgun as we reflect on heart-wrenching tragedies, the dynamics of car clubs, and our personal journeys that drive the quest for a space where enthusiasts can converge safely and legally, away from the city's watchful eye.
Amid the growl of engines and screech of tires, there's a symphony of community and connection waiting to be heard. We don't just shine a spotlight on the high-octane thrill of takeovers; we illuminate the power of the car community to rally around good causes, support local businesses, and build bridges over the divides that can stall the wheels of progress. From my own experiences with law enforcement to Daniel's admirable efforts in activism, we put the pedal to the metal on discussions that could shape the future of our culture—one where respect, collaboration, and diversity aren't just buzzwords, but the fuel that drives us forward.
