What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Jack and Chris gave candid and balanced reviews of the Volkswagen Jetta and Hyundai Sonata Hybrid they were covering, and their positioning the cars in relation to the Tesla S and the oncoming E-vehicle entries was particularly useful. Electric cars are certainly coming, but the transition from IC engines will take time, especially in more rural settings such as Teague’s. And the interview with Ms. Moreo of Nissan provided good insight into Nissan’s marketing of the new Rogue. An excellent show.

Motormou · Jun 2020

Well done, accessible reviews. The host are clearly knowledgeable. I’d love to have them include a discussion of the ethics of overpowered and/or very expensive cars in a time of rampant inequality and environmental degradation. I all for people making whatever decisions they want to but feel those decisions should be made with knowledge of their full implications.
