  • Used to be great

    I listen to this podcast every week. You need to tune down the politics. In the last few months this has basically become a political podcast. I get it influences EVs, but it doesn’t need to be 2/3 of the podcast. Please stay away from podcasts and go back to the good old days when this podcast, and better yet when the Inside EVs podcast used to be a five stars.

  • extremely political

    they get entirely too political and have many negative things to say. If I want to hear complaints about the President and no useful information, I can watch CNN or MSNBC. I Was hoping for EV news and discussions not talking points without facts. Dom is the only reasonable person and represents any and all that is good about this podcast.

  • Mad and disappointed

    This week on this podcast all I heard is China is allowed to make there own rules and policy’s that are good for China. When the USA makes their own rules and policy’s that benefit the country of the United States of America it’s not ok and the President enjoys making people hurt. All you podcasters know best don’t you? You are wrong constantly and if the democrats won it would have caused this country to enter in financial ruin. It was there plan they made policy to destroy the American dollar ... more
