Customer Reviews
Loved the pod but why are random 2017 pods showing up now?
I haven’t seen a new pod show up in a month and now random old 2017 podcasts are appearing?
Thank you John Davis and team!
Decades of fandom that has followed you all to the podcast world. You are all appreciated!
Out of Date
I’ve been a very long-time Motorweek viewer and listener - since the 1980s. But the pod is getting further out of touch lately, often including info on EVs, AI, etc., that is simply wrong or missing key elements. And when John Davis asserted in this week’s episode that full EVs are a bridge to a future of hydrogen cars, that was a bridge too far for me. They really need to hire someone like Marques Brownlee, Laycee Schmidtke (Miss Go Electric), or Tom Moloughney to join the team and bring them up to speed. If you want general info about the cars and tech of the past, they’re fine, but if you want to understand the latest technology and future direction of transportation, sadly, you’ll need to look elsewhere.
