I don't know what I find harder to believe, the fact you got Daddy Miata on your show, or Daddy Miata is an absolute G.

Was not expecting the designer of the Miata to be a comedian. He’s genuinely funny.

[BruceHurley]

This kid is a natural. Keep him in front of the camera. He's funny, confident, and articulate.

Exactly what I would expect the designer of the Miata to be like. Only someone this fun and lighthearted could make a car like that.

[SAnkalp]

"the last designer is the buyer" - that should be framed by donut. This is gold and pure genius !!!

1:12 "Can I have my money now" BRO IS A LEGEND

I think my favorite part about this (next to Bob just being epic) is the fact that his vision was a fun blank canvas. It was intended to become a million things to a million people. He doesn’t love every idea, but he loves that people made it their own. That’s just really cool to me.

Engineer at day, stand-up comedian at night. This dude is a legend. Thank you so much for inviting him.

I love how he’s so jokey and jovially but when it gets to talking Miata specs he gets serious. A true professional.

[TommyOnTheRun]

Getting roasted by the inventor is CRAZY! And his character is perfect for the Miata cult!

[TaofikiGafar]

This dude is humble and hilarious! We need more of him.

[CoRsaMan]

No way you actually got the inventor himself on the channel. Really shows the dedication to the channel, props!

[TheRealOTK]

This guy has an incredible sense of humor, please get him on Donut for literally any reason.

"This is one of the downsides of living in a free country." 100%!!!

[stupidskr]

Dude literally hit us with the " c u" at the end. Most legendary interview ever

[DamnAwesome]

Bob Hall is actually so damn quick and funny, the fact that he also gives props to the other people who helped make the Miata an actual thing, is so awesome!

[DarkHorse]

This was absolutely the best guest that donut media has ever had on any of there shows. His wit was through the roof and made this a real blast to watch.

[MrJekum]

One of the best interviews I have ever seen. This guy just became my hero and I will never look at a Miata the same.

[All-For-One-]

What a great guy...
His integrity and honesty was 100% amazing..
Kudos to you him and your team...
Just a great clip with sincere honesty...
Loved it ...

[Spo]

The fact that he immediately deflected the compliments and instead directed them to other people speaks volumes. What a cool and hilarious dude.
