Our main topic today is John’s EV Epic where he talks about all the cars he had as loaners while his Kia was out of commission. Is this better or worse than talking about whiskey? Maybe! Also some Minnesota music scene talk and concerts Phil’s has seen this Summer, John talks about the early post-apocalyptic movie, 1959’s “On The Beach”.
