About this episode

Victoria shares her experiences from Europe while discussing automotive news and industry challenges.

Hello, and welcome back to (almost) on-schedule podcasting from Jordan and Victoria! Vicki has returned from her whirlwind tour of Europe and Goes Off for 45 minutes, because she tasted the fruit of the fae of functional transit systems and walkable cities. She got Reverse Paris Syndrome ( Stendhal Syndrome ???), and now America tastes as ash in her mouth, and she has some thoughts. Sorry you gotta deal with it y'all Then the girls touch on the new Corvette Grand Sport and discuss Max Verstappen's absolute dominance at the Nurburgring feeder series in preparation for the 24 Hours later this year. Then the girls get into THE AMERICAN CENTURY OF HUMILIATION ROUND ∞: EPISODE HONDA, with the Series 0 and Afeela dying in the final stretch of development in the final months of development. Also, new name for Kodak Portra! Thank you deeply for your patience while Vicki was out on vacation! With this episode, we hope to return to a normal schedule yet again for the foreseeable future. Shirts coming extremely soon, I am literally working on the website today!
