About this episode

Robert and Tom are at the helm this week and what a week it has been. The Super Bowl was all EV all the time, with a massive number of ads for EV's ran during the broadcast. Ford has shut down the F-150 "lightning" assembly line in the wake of some battery issues and Tesla is recalling 300,000 + vehicles for problems with FSD. Large scale solar projects are being piloted in California with the hope of someday covering the aqueduct in solar panels. All that and more on  this weeks show.
