These episodes are a perfect length and the de-bunking is well-communicated in a chatty, friendly way that uses real life examples. I would love to access your transcripts, as I sometimes miss the detail of the conversation in some of the phone interviews. (Especially the one with your mum and dad on their EV.)
Listened to the first few episodes available and it’s ok. It’s light, not too much in-depth on the meatier topics and it’s presented in a way that’s accessible and digestible. Maybe sometimes a little too accessible. There were points where I expected someone to say ‘isn’t science just great’ and the guy from The Fast Show to appear and say ‘Brilliant!’
A lot of vocal fry and Aussie end-of-sentence lilt also but you get used to it. Not bad.
Loving this podcast. A fun way for my science-illiterate self to learn more about EVs. Time to start thinking about going electric…
2 episodes about electric cars? Neither were that enlightening pretty simple debunks
