    New JaGUar; '26 Hyundai Palisade; VW ID.Buzz & BTS of MotorWeek w/ Jessica Ray

    Episode 4: The New Jaaaaag featuring Jessica Ray Produced by Erik Maier We start off the show with an update from Byron and then dive into the news to discuss the 2026 Hyundai Palisade. An Oldsmobile Delta 88 is referenced. Then, we turn to a topic that's transcended the automotive world: the reimagined Jaguar. We touch on the Type 00 concepts, plus great Jags we've driven and what went wrong. Later, we're joined by MotorWeek's Jessica Ray, who shares her experiences with the Volkswagen ID. Buzz. We somehow end up comparing it to a Cybertruck. She also shares what it's like to put together a MotorWeek segment and discuss the long-running show's legacy.

    LA Auto Show; Hyundai Ioniq 9; Star Trek cars!; Auto Show BTS w/ Joel Stocksdale & James Bell (Episode 3)

    Episode 3: LAAS 2024 featuring Joel Stocksdale and James Bell Produced by Erik Maier   We talk about the new car introductions at the 2024 LA Auto Show, including the Hyundai Ioniq 9, Honda Passport TrailSport, VW Tiguan and Kia's EV9 GT, EV6 and Sportage. Byron, James and fellow journalist Joel Stocksdale also talk about what it's like to cover an auto show as a reporter and video host -- or rather, what it used to be like and how it's changed. To double the number of Canadian-born Jameses on the show, our Interview in a Car this week is with James Bell, Kia's head of corporate communications and public relations. He details what's new about the various new Kias at LAAS 2024 as well as what it's like to plan and put on an auto show press day. Finally, in an attempt to suck in as many new listeners as possible, we introduce our new audience-attracting feature, the High Priority SEO Evergreen Listicle of the Week: Top 10 Cars of Star Trek. Hard-hitting stuff for the masses to be sure.

Next, they talk about the updated Porsche Taycan and how it's definitely more functional as the Cross Turismo wagon. Then, James talks about the new/old wagon he just bought before interviewing Reese Counts from Edmunds about vehicle testing. Editor: Erik Maier
