Healey Brothers Pod

In this episode of the Healey Brothers Pod, Brian Healey and Jay Healey break down the used car market heading into January 2026. They discuss where pricing is actually moving, why the pre-owned EV market is changing, which used vehicles are holding their value, and how manufacturer incentives on new cars are impacting used inventory.
 
The conversation also covers certified pre-owned value, current buyer behavior, trade-in values, how vehicles are really appraised, and what Healey Brothers’ used inventory looks like right now. If you’re thinking about buying, trading, or selling a vehicle in early 2026, this episode gives you a realistic look at what to expect.

In this episode of the Healey Brothers Pod, we’re on location at the new Healey Brothers Chevrolet Cadillac in Newburgh, sitting down with Dylan Healey to talk about what it’s really been like taking over and leading a brand-new dealership.
 
From the challenges of inheriting a store with a tough reputation to rebuilding trust in the community, Dylan breaks down the hard, humbling, and rewarding realities of stepping into a leadership role. We dive into what it means to put customers first, why service sets the tone for the entire dealership, and how the right leadership and culture can completely transform a store in just a few short months.
 
We also talk Cadillac — the brand, the inventory push, the EV lineup, and why this store is positioned for massive growth heading into its next phase. From expanding service bays to increasing vehicle selection and foot traffic, this episode gives an inside look at how Healey Brothers approaches growth the right way.
 
If you’ve ever wondered what really goes into turning around a dealership — or what separates a great customer experience from a bad one — this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

In this episode of the Healey Brothers Pod, Jason Healey sits down with Brian Boolukos to break down the future of the Kia brand and why momentum is building faster than ever.
 
Fresh off Kia’s national dealer meeting in Las Vegas, they discuss the brand’s long-term vision, leadership direction, and how Kia is listening more closely than ever to both dealers and consumers. The conversation covers Kia’s rapid rise in U.S. retail sales, how it’s positioning itself against competitors like Hyundai, Honda, and Nissan, and what that means for customers right here in the Northeast.
 
They also dive into the most anticipated upcoming models — including the redesigned Telluride, the updated Seltos, the new K4 hatchback, and Kia’s approach to EVs with the EV4 — focusing on design, affordability, and real-world demand. The episode wraps with insight into what’s happening at Healey Kia in Newburgh, from facility growth to what customers are already asking for in the showroom.
 
If you’re curious about where Kia is headed and why so many buyers are paying attention, this is a must-listen.

In this special episode, we take a moment to talk about Wreaths Across America — what the mission is, why it means so much to us, and how the Healey Brothers team gets involved every single year.
 
We break down the meaning behind ‘Remember. Honor. Teach.’ and talk about the veterans, families, Gold Star moms, and local organizations who make this day so powerful. From the annual parade to the laying of wreaths on December 13th, we share what the experience looks like, how the community shows up, and why it gives you chills every time.
 
We also highlight the incredible work of the Nam Knights, local military support groups, and Chevy’s national involvement in sponsoring Wreaths Across America — including events at West Point and Arlington.
 
This is one of our favorite days of the entire year, and it’s an honor to support the men and women who protect our freedoms. We hope this episode helps more people understand what Wreaths Across America is all about and inspires you to get involved locally.

At the Healey Brothers Pod, we’re at FDR High School to shine a spotlight on the Roosevelt Racing program and our partnership with the Winners Circle Project.
 
In this episode, we sit down with Sean, Derek, and Lisa from FDR to break down how their students build a Factory Five Shelby Cobra nicknamed “Black Lightning,” create a full visual brand, and run real marketing campaigns — all while still in high school.
 
They share how the program ties together three classes — Build, Visual Communications, and Marketing — plus a Pathways to Success component that focuses on careers, internships, and life skills. From learning deadlines and teamwork to presenting, fundraising, and competing against other schools for a single trophy, these students are getting real-world automotive, media, and business experience long before graduation.
 
We also talk about why Healey Brothers is so invested in supporting programs like this, how alumni have already moved on to colleges, racing programs, and internships, and why giving students hands-on opportunities like Roosevelt Racing is a win for the whole community.

In this episode of the Healey Brothers Pod, Jason Healey sits down with Justin Friend and David Raminick from Proficy Digital to break down what omnichannel, data, and AI really mean for car dealers.
 
They talk about how dealers can stop guessing with their ad budgets and start using predictive, AI-driven insights to reach shoppers where they actually spend time—Instagram, Pinterest, TikTok, YouTube, streaming, search, and more. Jason shares how Healey brands itself first, ties in community and creative content, and uses video to put real faces to the stores, while Justin and David explain how their platform forecasts demand 90 days out and helps dealers spend smarter, not just more.
 
Whether you’re trying to understand omnichannel, wondering if Instagram actually sells cars, or looking for a better way to plan your marketing budget, this conversation shows how data, creativity, and AI can all work together to grow market share and profitability.
