Rad Recaps takes you back to when there were fast cars, endless jumps and a bright orange legend flying through the air. The Dukes of Hazzard wasn’t just a TV show, it was pure '80s chaos.

In this episode of Rad Recaps, we take a deep dive into the real story behind one of television’s most unforgettable series:


How the General Lee became the real star of the show

The shocking number of cars destroyed during filming

Why Bo and Luke were briefly replaced, and why fans revolted

The horn, the jumps, and the myths that grew bigger than the show itself

Why The Dukes of Hazzard still has fans decades later


From outrageous stunts to little-known facts (and a few tall tales), this is the story behind the show that never slowed down.

If you grew up watching the General Lee fly, this one’s for you.
