Harley Earl's story is a force to be reckoned with and the current leaders at GM are still standing in the way of it being told. This is one of the primary reasons why General Motors needed the bail out. Are they destined to repeat history and have another brush with the death by one of America's and the world's colossal institutions? Do the current executives really "get it" or is their arrogance going to have its way with them, again? Harley Earl is the father of design in the automotive industry. His visionary ideas caused the entire industry to change its thinking as it concerned the styling of automobiles and prompted the tremendous sales that captured the globe. His ideas and innovation caused the other members of the "Big 3" to covet his processes and procedures, not to mention those designs. This led to corporate espionage that would make the CIA and the KGB proud. Whatever you think you know about automotive history in the heyday of the once great City of Detroit, Michigan is sure to be put to the test with this show. Learn the story of Harley Earl as only his grandson Richard Earl can tell it. Richard is our special guest on The Boomer and The Babe Show on October 5th at 10 AM. Don't miss it.
