Episode notes

Rivian has raised ten and a half billion dollars since just two thousand 19. They've filed confidentially to go public. The vehicle was tested by its employees in real world camping and off roading situations numerous times. And it all kind of coalestes and comes together like screetlik they just seem to really know who their customer is. It definitely goes to the subru aba, 100%.

The gang is getting back out from behind their computer screens, bringing back tales of test drives and conferences for the latest discussion episode. Kirsten has been the busiest of the bunch, as her first drives of the hot new EVs from RIvian and Lucid (and a factory tour of the latter startup) prompt discussion of their execution and manufacturing. Ed's also just back from Micromobility America, where he notes on some of the changes in that scene, and Alex would tell you what he's been up to but then he'd have to kill you.
