Fast Guys, Rich Guys, and Idiots is a personal odyssey that peers over the cliff of change and into the pit of obsession. From small-time races to glittery grands prix, it lays bare the greed, lust, and desperation of every driver for time behind the wheel and a faster car.

Join Michael Griffiths as he attempts to understand the ever-changing world around us. I (Michael Griffiths) don't have any fancy qualifications, I'm no philosopher, and I'm certain that I'll never be regarded as an intellectual. That is why I wanted to do the show, so that real people can come together and figure stuff out. I will change my mind often as I grow through understanding. The more I learn, the more my perspective will (hopefully) shift. I would love for you to join me on this journey of discovery as I attempted to quell the Idiot inside and grow into a useful human.
