Episode 3: LAAS 2024 featuring Joel Stocksdale and James Bell

Produced by Erik Maier

We talk about the new car introductions at the 2024 LA Auto Show, including the Hyundai Ioniq 9, Honda Passport TrailSport, VW Tiguan and Kia's EV9 GT, EV6 and Sportage. Byron, James and fellow journalist Joel Stocksdale also talk about what it's like to cover an auto show as a reporter and video host -- or rather, what it used to be like and how it's changed. To double the number of Canadian-born Jameses on the show, our Interview in a Car this week is with James Bell, Kia's head of corporate communications and public relations. He details what's new about the various new Kias at LAAS 2024 as well as what it's like to plan and put on an auto show press day. Finally, in an attempt to suck in as many new listeners as possible, we introduce our new audience-attracting feature, the High Priority SEO Evergreen Listicle of the Week: Top 10 Cars of Star Trek. Hard-hitting stuff for the masses to be sure.
