Closing Gratitude and Full‑Circle Moment

Whistlin’ Diesel (Cody Detwiler) - YouTube content creator and personality best known for publishing a variety of videos about motor vehicles including cars, trucks, bulldozers, farm equipment, and off-roading vehicles. His videos have been viewed more than 1.7 billion times.

Cody Detwiler aka Whistlin’ Diesel sits down with Cameron Hanes for an almost 2-hour no-holds-barred conversation. From growing up as a Jehovah's Witness and getting shunned by his friends and some family, to accidentally blowing up on YouTube, burning supercars, why the court is trying to get him for tax evasion, and how he’s still dreaming way bigger. This is the most open he’s ever been!
