I got 100% on the quiz.  Now I will do my little superior dance.

Have we seen this on yet?

The electric cars are made out of corrugated cardboard.  Seems fitting.

Couldn't stop laughing... not at the crashed Tesla, but a footer from one of the posters on the forum:

"I would love to have an affordable, efficient hydrogen car. I could park it next to my unicorn."

Great Show Bo...BTW it would suck to be rear ended by that as well.   Didn't you say you were buying a red tesla?

And who wouldn't want affordable, efficient unicorn transportation.  But sadly I live in Massachusetts and the State Legislature does not allow them on the roads.

Good show guys!  Enjoyed Darryl and Sebastian very much.

I only got 9 out of 10 on the quiz:-(  AND I missed the easy one- the small picture and soft, germanic voice came on and I clicked on Elon Musk too quickly- never thought about how many South Africans have a German Accent.  Oh well- makes up for the two I guessed on;-)

Good link to the Tesla with the truck on top of it, John- needs a caption, though, like "Big Oil says 'bring it on little EV nut!'"  or "Exxon does not go quietly into the night!" or, in Humphrey Bogart's voice from the Big Sleep, "I'll slap ya, and you'll like it!"
