Tesla Under Attack
269 - Tesla Under Attack , that is right, the people have waged war on Tesla but is that a smart move? Is it basic protesting or domestic terrorism when people try to set Tesla dealerships and charge stations on fire? The Tesla's camera's are catching unhinged people doing damage and most are arrested days, sometimes hours later. Was it worth it? Is our economy on the brink of failure due to all the tariffs? Would you rather buy a used Honda Civic FL5 Type R or an Acura Integra Type S?

Conspiracy theories abound, focusing on DEI policies and the female pilot's connection to the Biden administration. The host emphasizes the tragedy and cautions against jumping to conclusions. The official explanation of a continuity of government drill is mentioned. Philly Plane Crash: An air ambulance from Mexico crashed in Northeast Philly, initially sparking missile attack fears. It was confirmed to be an air ambulance with six fatalities. The massive explosion raises questions about the cargo. Segment 2: Dank DeMoss vs. Lyft (~5:00 - 15:00) The Incident: Dank DeMoss (Big Dank), a plus-size hip-hop artist, is suing Lyft after a driver refused her service. The driver cited concerns about his tires and the car's capacity. The Debate: The host discusses the complexities of the situation, acknowledging DeMoss's weight while also pointing out the driver's poor handling of the situation. The host criticizes the driver for mentioning the tires, suggesting he should have simply cancelled the ride. Legal Angle: DeMoss's lawyers argue that weight is a protected characteristic in Michigan, making the driver's refusal discriminatory.

Stick To Cars
EP240 Jhae reflects on a recent vacation to Minnesota and how his family has become even smaller since the passing of his father in 2020, emphasizing the value of spending time with loved ones. The latest podcast review suggesting they "stick to cars," and how this feedback as an opportunity for improvement and learning but also how the Dan Lebatard Show with Stugotz inspired Hard Parking so a review asking the show to "stick to cars" is almost a compliment. Jhae defends the content of this podcast, which includes a mix of automotive topics and other interests, and explains the approach to covering various subjects based on their curiosity and audience feedback. Jhae reviews a 2023 rental Subaru Outback, noting its features and their mixed feelings about it, emphasizing its practicality but not being a preferred choice. Southwest Airlines is shifting away from its open seating policy to a reserved seating system starting possibly in January, which may address their current struggles. Jhae expresses frustration with Southwest's check-in process, which requires prompt action to secure a good boarding position, and recounts a recent experience where they ended up in less desirable seats despite their efforts. Southwest's business class upgrade as overpriced and share their relief at improving their seating situation on the return flight. Jhae reviews Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (2005) , finding Johnny Depp's portrayal of Willy Wonka odd and the film a strange but enjoyable remake. They also watched Breathe (2023) but found it disappointing, citing poor acting and a lack of tension. Did you know the stunts and practical effects of the Fast and Furious movies, revealing that many stunts were done with real cars rather than CGI. Upcoming Events: September 14-15: Las Vegas September 21-22: Southwest Speed Festival: Podium Club in Casa Grande, Arizona. October 13: Future Collector Car Show: at Barrett Jackson. Jhae is the Emcee October 23-27: NSXPO: Podcast Review Request: The speaker encourages listeners to leave a review on Apple Podcasts, especially if they use Spotify or YouTube.

Hawk Tuah
Ep230 It seems the internet remains undefeated as the less known Tippah County Tribune published an article stating that the Hawk Tuah girl, Hailey Wellington has been fired from her job as a pre-school teacher. This satirical article set the world on fire faster than Amazon Prime's Fallout TV series. Whether Hailey is even really a pre-school teacher or not, the question is still, Can people still be fired from things on social media? I guess it depends on what those things are. Also in this episode, the Honda Z get's its first oil change and the NSX is back in the garage. Why did Jhae pick the Acura RDX loaner over the Acura Integra? The Q&A segment has returned.

Is Electrification one big scam or are people just stupid?
ep207 I recently uploaded a segment about a small area of road that had been equipped to charge a van while the van drove over the road. Some people say the EV movement is a big scam. What is the difference between a scam and an overly idealistic hope of a full EV near future? Do people who read poll questions but skip without asking guilty by default of not answering the question?

Bonus: Brittney Griner part 2(so I made a mistake)
ep 141.5 I was recently called out on my YouTube video that Brittney Griner was caught with allegedly cannabis oil, and not CBD oil. Cannabis oil contains far more THC and is illegal in most states still. Although her doctor sent over proof it was medically prescribed which does supersede the legality in many states, it was still far more of a potent product that CBD oil. With that being said, CBD is still derived from the cannabis plant and is still 100% illegal in Russia. Would that have made any difference? Further more, this is the third time a woman from the US has been detained or jailed in Russia over this. This seems to be the only time the US has made an actual prisoner trade. In one case, the woman was released after 30 days and paid a small fine. The other case, President Putin pardoned the Israeli American woman because Israel refused to trade her for a Russian hacker.
