    Apr 16 2026

    World news has us deviating from the norm this week, as we dive into how China became the world EV leader, under what circumstances the war in Iran could lead to increased EV adoption, why the price of diesel could affect the purchase price of your next electric vehicle, and why the world could never be “oil free.”

    265: Finding Their There
    Apr 9 2026
    This week, we discuss a number of automotive brands finding their “there” in the EV world.

Revealing the good, the bad, and the ugly, Andrew recounts his ownership experience and offers his advice as to whether YOU should consider owning a fuel cell vehicle.
