Max Maddox, Head of Creative at Donut Media
Episode 133
Alex sits down with Max Maddox, the new Head of Creative at Donut Media, at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca during Monterey Car Week 2025.
With an aural background of vintage race cars on track and fresh off a test drive of the new 1,064-horsepower C8 Corvette ZR1, Max talks about two run-ins with Horacio Pagani; a brief IQ test; branded soap; Car Week traffic; the mystery Hella air dam on his E30; sage advice regarding BMW window regulators; the Porsche 911 he bought on BaT for $850; a new flagship show for the channel; whether "more expnesive is more better"; a daring take on Y2K-era spinners; the Great Host Departure of 2024; becoming a Civic liker; tailoring Donut for a TV audience; and whether he'll turn into a roof tent guy now that he's got a diesel Cayenne.
