I just watched it and it was coolI thought I recorded the show but ran out of space on my usb thumb drive and only recorded 6 minutes of the show. I will try to record the show later when they show the rerun later tonight.

Verizon is showing episode 22 this week (Detroit Auto Show) 2/13 on Velocity. So I guess next week 2/20 they will show episode 23 the Calloway Sledgehammer story.
