Technically, You Can Make Car Tires Out Of Cheese, But It Won't Be Easy-April 2024

Good Mythical Morning Cheese Wheels

Generally speaking, the algorithm sucks. You’d think it would be better because it’s owned by . But no. For some reason, it loves to recommend videos that you’ve already watched and that YouTube definitely knows you’ve already watched. Or it will decide you never finished a video that you absolutely finished and keep recommending it to you. But sometimes, it hits it out of the park with something appropriately and .

In this case, it’s a three-year-old video from Good Mythical Morning, a channel with more than 18 million subscribers that you’ve probably either never heard of or have watched for years. Personally, I had never heard of it before a friend shared that one of the hosts, Rhett McLaughlin, was going to release an Americana album under the name James and the Shame. Turns out, and not just good for a YouTuber. Especially if you grew up in evangelical culture and later had to deconstruct your faith.

But while that’s a heavy, serious topic, the video that popped up in my recommended feed today is essentially the opposite of that. It wants to know if you can drive a car on wheels made of cheese. If you think about it, cheese comes in wheels, and cars have wheels, so it’s not the dumbest question ever asked. But only two North Carolina boys with a multi-million-dollar YouTube empire would waste the time and money required to figure it out. And we’re grateful that they did.

As it turns out, technically, it is possible. Sort of. If you’re willing to stretch your definition of “cheese wheel” and don’t expect it to last long. But the process of watching them make it work is definitely entertaining enough to spend 17 minutes watching (or 8.5 minutes if you speed it up to 2x). Now don’t mind me, I have to go downstairs and find some cheese to snack on.

Kia Vastly Underestimated Demand For The Telluride SUV
Kia’s initial production plans for its new three-row SUV were 60,000 units built per year. With actual production capacity now peaking at 100,000 units and still not enough cars to meet demand, Telluride buyers are going to have to wait. My colleague Tom McParland, who is also an automotive...

I Don't Understand Why This Old Brazilian VW Is Not The Accepted Baseline Design For Nearly All Cars
I’ll admit, when it comes to cars, I often find myself drawn to the outlier designs, the weirder engineering, the trends that didn’t catch on just because, well, that’s what’s interesting to me. Sometimes, though, an example of one of these engineering roads-not-taken surprises me in how, well, rational...
