Thanks been a listener for 4 plus years

Non-biased information with the real world experience. Can’t beat it for once a week ev catch up. It is always good to have experienced perspective of our changing EV world.

Craig Garghan ,

Best EV podcast

Thanks so much for keeping us up to date with all things EV. Good and bad, love to hear it all as I am looking to get my first EV.

123Chuckle$ ,

Best balanced EV podcast

Great, knowledgeable, balanced discussion on the state of the EV market. Especially when it comes to Tesla, it’s hard to find content that gives credit where it’s due and criticism where it’s warranted. Fred and Seth get a lot of flak from both sides for maintaining their journalistic integrity and staying above the fray. Keep it up!
