Description
I am an automotive designer but people are always asking me, "what does that mean"? And, how do you "design" a car? My favorite question, though, is what makes "good" design? This podcast will answer all of those questions and more as we talk about the latest in automotive trends, major car shows like NAIAS and SEMA, and what influences these designs. Every now and again, I'll talk product design too. So come on, check out an episode or two and let's take this journey together!

Ever Heard of Fisker? Or Fisker Automotive? Or how about Henrik Fisker ?
Whether you have or haven't heard or Fisker, you should have a listen about basically, everything Fisker

There is some very interesting news going around about the Biden Administration potentially reversing or slowing its push for Evie's here in the United States which could have implications the world over. But what does that mean for the automotive market and buyer? Well basically, right now would be the best time to get an EV because dealerships are flooded with stock that nobody wants.
Did you know that the KIA Carnival is not really just a minivan? Did you know that it also used to have a totally different name? And did you know that it's actually pretty cool?
Last but not least, the Mini Countryman isn't so "mini" anymore but does that mean it doesn't belong in the Mini family anymore? Personally, I think it is a fantastic option for those looking for a compact crossover, but it does stick out like a sore thumb amongst all of the other Mini Cooper vehicles.

Well folks, I am back!
Its been awhile and I had to do some soul searching, but here I am! Back and better than ever! (Maybe haha).
Big shout out to my fans for keeping me going! You all asked for more, so here we go!
This is a bit of a Christmas present to you all and me as I was offered the chance to review a really nice dashcam from a brand called Pelsee. The cam is called the P2 Trio, and it features 3 cameras, 5ghz connection, 4k recording (audio and video), voice commands, a GPS (for speed) and a slew of other very nice features.
Check out this video to see my full reaction and impressions on the unit. Heres the link to it on Amazon.

Oh, and I have some new video editing software so its taking me a minute to learn the ins and outs of it. Expect some higher quality videos in the future! And, if you liked this product review, I will try and get some more. Tech is definitely something I am passionate about and it fits in with product/industrial design discussions.

President Joe Biden is looking to replace the entire fleet of storm troopers, I mean federal vehicles, with Electric ones built right here in the US!
Which vehicles do you think he will choose? A fleet of ridiculously expensive Teslas? Maybe an army of Chevy Bolts...cute little things.
Speaking of Tesla, the Model S and Model X FINALLY got refreshed and they look pretty good! Love that Yoke steering wheel.
A bunch of new cars were recently revealed including the refreshed mini 2 door and 4 door hardtop and convertible lineup; Hyundai showed off a Tuscon N-Line for Europe (forbidden fruit) and Nissan is poised to show off 2 new vehicles (likely the Pathfinder and Frontier)
But ya gotta give a listen to get all the details!

What do you guys think about electric cars? Are they stupid? Should the be the new norm? Would you buy one?
Stick around and get all of the shocking news (yeah, I said that) about the latest and greatest in electrified cars.
P.s. thats not an electric Fiat 500 burning in the background of this week's episode art, but, it could be.

The 2022 Outlander is finally out of the proverbial box (thanks to Amazon Live) and we get our first full look at the inside and outside of the family-friendly crossover. Why is this a big thing for MItsu? What does it share with Nissan? How much will it cost? These are the questions I will get you the answers too and more!
OK, Movie time people! A switch and change of pace from cars for a moment because for awhile, most people in the world have not had the ability to go to movie theaters to catch the latest releases. Even now that most states and countries are allowing theaters to be open, people aren't flocking to them like the good ol' days. So how are we to catch the latest releases?
HBOMax and Disney+ are two options, so lets take a look at what's coming out in the very near future!

This is going to be a fun episode for everyone, I think.
Ive enlisted the help of a good friend of mine, Anthony, to join the show and share his opinions about upcoming movies for 2021, and what the pandemic has done to the movie industry. Covid be DAMNED but 2021 might be a beacon of hope for many.
Lastly, because I always talk about cars, Anthony and I will argue about which Batmobile was the best Batmobile, ever.
P.s. When both of us are in the same room, our filter's go out the door (but we kept our facemasks on!) and therefore, this episode is listed as explicit. Sorry Kiddos, but maybe ask your parents to listen to this one!

While the automotive industry is laying low (except, did you see that the Ram 1500 TRX just won Motor Trend's Truck of the Year aware?!), I'm trying to find more content for everyone both through my podcast AND through my youtube channel (see below for links).
That said, lets shift gears over to art and what you SHOULD be doing right now.
If you are serious about becoming a designer or creative artist of any type, you NEED to be on behance.com and ArtStation.com
At both of these sites, you can essentially create a portfolio full of projects that you can share your process/progress and then get feedback from other artists. You can even apply for jobs, right through the site, using an uploaded resume and your portfolio from either site.
Lastly, Id certainly appreciate a follow and a like (or two) on my youtube channel which is: https://www.youtube.com/user/that1guyftw
On my youtube channel, you will find new vehicle reviews and simple how-to videos for doing quick repairs or upgrades in your car. Everything from chaning air filters to replacing halogen bulbs with LEDs!
So go check out Artstation and Behance and get to work on your creativity! And be sure to check out my youtube channel!

Welcome back everyone! I know it has been a long time since I last had an episode but Im back for good! Had to get things sorted out with my day job and finding a good time slot to get a consistent, new episode up each week for my listeners.
Well I am back and this week I will be talking about SEMA and the LA Autoshow...that never happened! Well, sort of.
Lots of awesome cars revealed over the last 2 or 3 weeks and while I wont be breaking every one of them down, I will touch on some key points and highlights.
Oh, and definitely check out the Honda N-one because it has this really cool interior feature that I think ALL cars should have.
And dont mind my cat...hes just curious.

BMW wasted little to no time bringing their (unloved and heavily criticized) big-mouth grilles to more of their lineup, but this time, the M3 and M4 are taking advantage of what I assume is a whole lot of air-intake.
VW shows off the second ID model, the ID4 and guess what?! You can reserve one RIGHT NOW for $100.... just not in the gold they showed or in awd... or in a GTi/R variant. Sad face. But on the brightside, its pretty awesome looking and quite potent for something its size. The range is, well, acceptable for right now. Especially consider VW is the brand that recently got slammed for passing too much gas, er, i mean for dumping too many pollutants into the atmosphere. Ah whatever, they are trying to fix it! And frankly, I am on board with the ID4.
