Positive and inspiring
Love listening to this to pass the time, and often find a bit of inspiration. Great hosts and guests. Thanks Emelia, Sung, and their podcasting team!
Great Show!
I've really been enjoying this show! They have such interesting, inspirational, genuine, down-to-earth discussions. They've talked to a lot of interesting people from car culture, and it's been interesting hearing their stories and insights. This show really gets at the human element of the automotive hobby - the connections people have to their cars and to each other. The hosts have great chemistry and are fun to listen to and the sound design is good, both of which which help. Thanks for the great show!
