On the Electrek Podcast, we discuss the most popular news in the world of sustainable transport and energy. In this week’s episode, Seth is on vacation and it’s just me, Fred, so we are going to discuss EV news as usual, but we are also going to make the episode more interactive by taking more questions from you, the audience.

The show is live every Friday at 4 p.m. ET on Electrek’s YouTube channel – except for this week, we are doing a special time of 10 a.m ET.

As a reminder, we’ll have an accompanying post, like this one, on the site with an embedded link to the live stream. Head to the YouTube channel to get your questions and comments in.

After the show ends at around 5 p.m. ET, the video will be archived on YouTube and the audio on all your favorite podcast apps:
