Podcasts about BMW

In Autoblog Podcast seizoen 2, aflevering 4 gaat het van Renault-retro tot elektrische Ferrari’s en alles daartussen. Zoals altijd begint het met de weken van Wouter en Nicolas. Automatisch inparkeren blijkt nog steeds een soort loterij (lantarenpalen zijn geen vrienden), er wordt hybride gereden voor twee euro per volle accu en Wouter test een 992.2 911 Turbo die zó snel is dat hij bijna saai wordt. Bijna. Het duo bespreekt het nieuwe Alpina onder de vleugels van BMW en ook komt de elektrische Ferrari ter sprake. Dit en meer in deze nieuwe aflevering!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A feedback pod today with some cracking messages to chat through.We start with a couple on the Australian Open cancellation, on day one, that Nick and Mark spoke about recently. Raymond has written in and he was caddying that day, and remembers it very clearly, he runs through what he was seeing on the day. And Brad, who narrowly missed qualifying for the Open that year and went along with his wife to watch the tournament - unfortunately the day was, obviously, cut short!Phillip has some news on the Australian Women's Open which he asks Nick to confirm, or otherwise.McDougal has a view on this weeks comments about The Players Championship. Mark heard us discussing conceding holes last week and Nick and Mark noting how rare it is, he points out a very famous occasion from an Aussie! Andrew listened to Nick and Mark's 7 predictions, and has a prediction of his own.And after the turn, we review the putting technique of journalist and wolfpacker Jon Ralph who was playing with Mark last week, and was caught on camera putting to save par. We ask Nick O'Hern to analyse Ralphy's putting technique. Is he impressed or underwhelmed?Kevin from Vietnam writes to Nick with his views on the courses in that country, Nick knows it well having played golf there a number of times.And we read a note from Brenton of the Woodburn-Evans Head Golf Club in NSW who recently had a significant theft at the club, and are putting on a great day in March to raise funds for recovery.

We’ve got the voice of Radio Le Mans on the pod for the first time and they recorded the ep in the National Motor Racing Museum at Mount Panorama! Let’s face it between Rusty and John it was always going to be a big ask to keep the chat to a shortcast duration so there’s over half an hour of convo for you to enjoy ahead of this weekend’s race. From human interest stories like the Quinn entry where driving duties will be shared across three generations of the family to the headline grabbing return of MotoGP legend Valentino Rossi. He’s here because he wants to be! Why this event has become so well regarded internationally not just because of the lure of this classic race track. Can Maro Engel break a bit of a Bathurst hoodoo? And some of the standout Aussies in the field including Supercars champion Chaz Mostert and his rival who went so, so close to claiming that title last year - Broc Feeney. Plus some of the other stories to follow like Kenny Habul, Matt Campbell, BMW’s hopes of going back-to-back and the highly anticipated grudge match between Chev and Ford as the Corvette and the Mustang GT3 machines line-up for this unforgiving 12 hour race. Make sure you visit the National Motor Racing Museum the next time you get to Bathurst.

Is the "Zero Day" infection spreading across the pond? In this episode, we dive deep into the heart of the Eurozone to see how record levels in the DAX and the explosion of 0DTE options are reshaping the landscape for retail and institutional traders alike. Host Mark Longo is joined by a powerhouse panel to break down the macroeconomic shifts, sector rotations, and the structural innovations making European derivatives more accessible than ever. In This Episode: The 0DTE Contagion: Lex Luthringshausen (Tradier) explains why European traders are beaming into US markets to sling intraday iron condors and how that behavior is translating to cash-settled European indices. DAX to the Max: Eugen Mohr (Eurex) breaks down the "Conservative Shift" in German politics under the new Chancellor and how government spending in the defense and industrial sectors is driving the DAX 40 to record heights. The Economic Cycle: Dr. VSTOXX himself, Russell Rhoads, analyzes why the DAX might offer more "juice" than the S&P 500 in 2026 and why the "Potholes" in the US economy might make European exposure a smoother ride. German Engineering vs. Italian Style: A heated debate on the automotive sector—from BMW and Mercedes to the "Poster Car" aesthetics of Italian design. Micro-Sizing the Market: Why notional size matters and how the Micro-DAX (at just 1 Euro per point) is becoming the ultimate tool for retail risk management. The Red Phone: The panel tackles listener questions on Eurex 0DTE liquidity, "Weekend Risk" trades using V-Stocks, and Tradier's unique "All You Can Trade" subscription model. The Panel: Mark Longo: Founder, The Options Insider Media Group Dr. Russell Rhoads: Clinical Professor at the Kelley School of Business, Indiana University Eugen Mohr: Product & Business Development Specialist at Eurex Lex Luthringshausen: SVP of Business Development at Tradier Resources Mentioned: The Leap Trading Competition: Join over 50,000 traders in the Eurex/TradingView paper trading challenge.

Like everyone Chris from Rutherglen on the NSW/Victorian border was excited about Elvis Smylie's win on debut for LIV last weekend, and in the lead-up to LIV Adelaide this weekend he watched a video on the LIV YouTube channel with every shot of Elvis' final round in the Riyadh tournament and left a voicemail recommending it and explaining why and what is in it. Have a listen to Chris' voicemail, and you can see the video he's referring to here.

Thanks to our Partners, NAPA Auto Care and NAPA TRACS Watch Full Video Episode In this episode, Carm Capriotto reconnects with industry veteran Peter Rudloff to explore his transition from shop owner to consultant, his “stay in your lane” philosophy, and the future of EV repair. Rudloff shares how a 25-year exit plan allowed him to retire from shop ownership at 47 and transition into his home-based “Pete Cave,” where he continues hands-on work without managing employees. He later founded Rhino Collective LLC, helping manufacturers connect engineering with real-world repair. A central theme is specialization. By focusing on domestic and Asian vehicles and avoiding brands like BMW, Rudloff improved efficiency and profitability. He argues that staying within your strengths leads to “profit by default” and long-term stability. Looking ahead, he predicts EVs will dominate, and repair will shift toward modular, aircraft-style maintenance. He encourages new shop owners to consider EV specialization as a growth path. Rudloff also emphasizes ongoing education, recommending 60 hours of training per year and crediting the Delaware Training Group as a major influence on his career. This episode delivers clear, practical insight on focus, future-proofing, and lifelong learning in today's repair industry.

Will Arnett sparks debate with a controversial take on tattoos as San Francisco shows signs of a comeback while hosting the Super Bowl. Andy digs into Sam Darnold’s jaw-dropping California tax bill that somehow beats his Super Bowl winnings, breaks down BMW’s major U.S. recall over a fire risk, and asks why Gen-Z is avoiding driver’s licenses altogether (hint: fear plays a role). Plus, a late-night-style crossover with George Noory brings an unexpected twist.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

No time to muck around - right off the bat we reveal the BMW Touch of Class recipient this week, and it had to be Elvis Smylie....a huge win in his LIV debut, individual and team and a well deserved Touch of Class for BMW. Nick and Mark discuss how Elvis played, particularly with Rahm on the tear in the late stages, and how he has moved from 130 to be in the 70's now, on the verge of a Masters spot if he can have another couple of solid performances.His timing was pretty good given this was the first LIV tournament eligible for OWGR points, although both Nick and Mark feel the structure of how many points is not yet right. Obviously this weekend is LIV Adelaide, which as usual will be crazy - Adelaide being consistently LIV's best event.Brandel Chamblee made some controversial comments about The Players this week, Nick and Mark discuss and respond to his comments, around the field, the prestige, and Mark asks Nick if he could choose, which one major would he like to win. Nick also gives a recommendation for a restructure of the Women's Majors.Mark watched the Waste Management tournament in Phoenix and loved plenty of it, but was disappointed with two things. He explains.He has also brought in a ridiculous photo regarding aim point and straddling the line - it is truly insane we'll put it on socials, and show it on the YouTube show. We decide that were straddling the line to be banned, and it should be, that would be a plus for golf, and we reckon our friends at Hostplus, who are mad golfers, would completely agree.Oh dear.....the Chili Dip that was seen around the world from Colin Morikawa. We've all done it, but most of us not on international television. We discuss using the leading edge and 'hands of gold' when chipping. Nick and Mark watch the video, and give their thoughts on his technique.After the turn, following a chat about the OWGR points, we look at what you get for each tournament and if it is equitable. Then, for Betr, Nick's Top 5 is the Top 5 Chili Dips in golf....there are some classics, and a couple of very heavy hitters in there!Feedback for Southern Golf Club - we read a couple about Elvis, there were plenty, lots of comments on the Top 10 list - including a ripper of a suggestion from wolfpacker Jack who'd love a Top 10 Public Course list....which we reckon wolfpackers are better to suggest as there will be bunch we've not played. So....let us know what you reckon are your favourite public access courses, shoot a message through via the website, a voicemail, or comment on socials....you might have 1 suggestion, you might have 5, or somewhere in the middle, doesn't matter....give us your views and we'll compile a list.Nick runs through the results in the PING Globals - plenty of golf, the season is away with a bang. And during them we have a look at Tour Pro Chris Gotterup's swing - Mark has noticed something and wants to discuss it. Nick also has another killer Scottie Scheffler stat....this is becoming a habit, maybe we need a stats theme song opener?And predictably, Mark tries to search something on Grok and it goes pear-shaped....We wrap the show with a Masterclass for the Golf Clearance Outlet from Mark inspired by Colin Morikawa's awful chip at the weekend.We're live from Titleist and FootJoy HQ thanks to our great partners:BMW, luxury and comfort for the 19th hole;Titleist, the #1 ball in golf;FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in golf;PING will help you play your best;Golf Clearance Outlet, they beat everyone's prices;Betr, the fastest and easiest betting app in Australia;And watchMynumbers and Southern Golf Club.

The girls have taken over, and John is the only guy brave enough to stay for the podcast. Wendy, Jo and the Kerry's came to town for a fun weekend of riding the PCH, dirtbiking, good food, shenanigans and spending the day in the garage with the Misfits. They share their experiences riding the Niken, Ibex 450, TTR125 and Kerry reviews her brand new WR125R dirtbike. They also share some of their experience and frustration teaching new riders how to ride in the dirt. Stumpy John is back from Cuba, and talks about what they are riding there. Emma talks about big twins; why a Harley, BMW and KTM sound and perform so different when they are all two cylinder bikes. Then we talk about the Mecum auction and what trends are selling big, and what bikes are going for Craigslist prices. With Sophia, Liza, Stumpy John, Jo, Wendy, Kerry 1, Kerry 2, Miss Emma and Bagel. www.motorcyclesandmisfits.com motorcyclesandmisfits@gmail.com www.breakingawayadventures.com/shop/p/mi…-rally-v4 www.patreon.com/motorcyclesandmisfits www.zazzle.com/store/recyclegarage www.youtube.com/channel/UC3wKZSP0J9FBGB79169ciew womenridersworldrelay.com/ motorcyclesandmisfits.com/shop

This week, Ivy Slater, host of Her Success Story, chats with her guest, Lulu Essey. The two talk about building a successful global creative career while navigating bipolar disorder, the power of true self-love as a foundation for resilience, and how Lulu helps ambitious professionals achieve meaningful, sustainable success through her coaching and podcast.  In this episode, we discuss: How Lulu built a 30-year global creative career, from theater and television in South Africa to experiential marketing and executive creative director roles across Europe, the U.S., Hong Kong, Greater China, and Southeast Asia, while quietly managing severe bipolar disorder. What it was like to move to New York City in the middle of the pandemic, visa bans and all, and simultaneously build a coaching business after years of doing workshops, speaking, and mentoring on the side of her agency career. When being let go from her senior vice president, executive creative director role during a major bipolar relapse felt "brutal" in the moment, but ultimately became the push she needed to fully step into her own work and redefine success on her terms. Why self-love (not just "liking yourself") is now at the core of her work, defined as refusing to abandon yourself, your needs, and your voice, and how that perspective completely reframed resilience, failure, and bouncing back from hard seasons. How shifting her worth off "quicksand" metrics like titles, awards, and deals, and onto an inner sense of value, helped her stop chasing external validation and start feeling worthy now, even when goals are still in progress.   Lulu Essey is an award-winning Executive Creative Director who has spent three decades working with global brands like Porsche, BMW, Cartier, and Google across four continents. Finding her way through a 30-year journey with severe bipolar disorder while building an impressive career, she discovered that external achievement and awards mean nothing without authentic Self-Love as the foundation - the missing infrastructure most driven women never build. Now a Speaker, certified Life Coach, and host of The Lulu Essey Podcast, Lulu helps ambitious professionals create success that actually feels good. Her message: sustainable success isn't about pushing harder or doing more - it's about building from the inside out.

During Race Industry Week, IMSA President John Doonan delivers a powerful, in-depth breakdown of why the International Motor Sports Association is entering “another golden era” as the countdown begins toward the 2026 season and the Rolex 24 At Daytona.Fresh off an electrifying 2025, Doonan explains how IMSA's unprecedented momentum across manufacturers, teams, fans, and partners is reshaping the global sports car racing landscape—from the explosive growth of the GTP prototype class to record OEM engagement across all categories.

As U2 famously said: 'there's been a lot of talk, maybe too much talk' about Top 100 golf course lists, and last week there was another addition that caught Nick and Mark's eyes. Golf Australia Magazine gave their Top 100 Australian courses list, you can see it here. Like all lists, there is a degree of subjectivity to it and there's plenty on this list we agree with, and plenty we'd question, but that's part of it.Having said that, we decided to do the official Talk Birdie To Me 'Top 10 Australian golf course list'.So today Nick and Mark list their Top 10 Australian courses. We'd love your feedback, whether you agree or disagree, and if there are any standout courses that belong in the Top 10 that weren't AND what course you would remove to put it in there.We won't list them here, but we will list the state breakdown:On Nick and Marks list is:6 courses from Victoria;2 from Tasmania;1 from New South Wales;and 1 from South Australia.mmmm this could get controversial...We're live from Titleist and FootJoy HQ thanks to our great partners:BMW, luxury and comfort for the 19th hole;Titleist, the #1 ball in golf;FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in golf;PING will help you play your best;Golf Clearance Outlet, they beat everyone's prices;Betr, the fastest and easiest betting app in Australia;And watchMynumbers and Southern Golf Club.

This week, Alex, Randy, and Beck talk about the correct way to staff a pickup and/or a 911SC; our recent experience at Motoring Club Cars & Coffee in San Francisco; handling good friends in bad cars; Trooper apologies; "black plates" on black cars; the true meaning of car culture (hint: it involves stealing from children); the overall event situation in and around SF; Alex's looming family trip to Disneyland, God help him; the wrong way to think about a nature preserve; and Pro 7 memories.Next up is our favorite recent Question of the Week, wherein the crew covers a failed bumper backdate, vice-and-hammer metalwork, and extremely questionable battery mounting techniques. They briefly explore the differences between Mr. Sandman and Enter Sandman, then lust after green-dial 911s, a vintage Texaco gas station, a John Oates/Emory 356, an SVO Mustang, and other watchlist favorites.Mentioned in this episode:6:43  March 16 BaT Meet-Up, Encinitas Event Gallery14:20 First BaT Alumni Gathering: A Fun Morning with Friends Old and New17:47 The_one_they_call_The_Spaniard19:50  BaT Meet-Up, February 21 at Desert Dunes in Palm Springs, California19:59  BaT Local Partner Compass Collective23:24  Question of the Week: What's Your Best Temporary Fix That Turned Permanent?28:08 Beck's 1974 BMW 2002tii36:02  1997 Porsche 911 Carrera S Coupe 6-Speed37:54  1961 Chrysler 300G Hardtop Coupe38:25 Texaco Service Station Replica w/ Pumps & Memorabilia40:12  427 SOHC “Cammer”-Powered 1959 Ford Thunderbird Coupe 3-Speed41:21 John Oates' 1960 Porsche 356B Emory Special Cabriolet44:19 1958 Porsche 356A Emory Outlaw Cabriolet Race Car  and 1958 Porsche 356A Cabriolet Outlaw Racer45:43  Twin-Plug 2.8L-Powered 1967 Porsche 911S Coupe Emory Outlaw45:48  1968 Porsche 912 Emory Outlaw Race Car46:51  24k-Mile 1986 Ford Mustang SVO47:17  1978 Plymouth Sapporo48:21  Preserved Euro Market Rarity: 1982 Mitsubishi Sapporo Turbo Convertible50:59  Group 4-Style, AAN-Powered 1988 Audi Quattro 51:10 1988 Toyota Celica All-Trac Turbo and 1991 Toyota Celica GT-Four RCGot suggestions for our next guest from the BaT community, One Year Garage episode, or (B)aT the Movies subject?

Things go completely sideways on the Carton Show as Craig Carton and Chris McMonigle react to some of the wildest WFAN callers you'll ever hear. From Limo Driver Ed pitching his insured BMW limo services, to a BMX-riding superfan offering to be “Gay for Craig,” the phones deliver nonstop comedy. The conversation spirals into the viral “Gay for May” slogan, Super Bowl fandom insanity, and Craig's classic off-the-cuff humor that only WFAN can deliver. Pure chaos, pure laughs, pure Carton Show.

A feedback pod today with some great comments and questions to run through.We start with Graham who heard Nick's advice last week about not aiming for the flag, and he explains where he aims. Nick and Mark talk about they do, and did when they were on tour. Plenty of feedback on Marks 'gimme' theory from a couple of weeks back.Bean disagrees with Mark and explains why, Andy says gimmes are a slippery slope, Gary believes unmissable putts are too subjective, Peter accuses Mark of a double standard, and Robert reckons the main issue with gimmes has to do with beer. Phew....After the turn, Tom in Arizona has a request for content on the pod...it's a nice idea...! Arthur disagrees with Mark that the BMW PGA should move from Brisbane to Sydney, he wants it to stay where it is. Kevin is a new wolfpacker and is working through the prior episodes and has a question about something Nick and Mark discusses in episode 7 (?!?!?!??!), back in 2023!!!! Welcome aboard Kevin!And then to Duncan. Oh Duncan. He has messaged in defending Monty, and risking incurring the wrath of one Mr Mark Allen.Dave agrees with us from last week that Scheffler is a gun, but says he is not yet run the same conversation as Tiger - and provides some stats to support this. We discuss if Scheffler will get to ten career majors or not.And a couple of final comments from Darren, and Malcolm, both of whom enjoyed the chat with Peter Senior (it was great fun).

If you saw or read about what happened to Calum Hill in Bahrain at the weekend, you'll no doubt have found it as difficult to watch as we did. He had a very tough weekend, completely lost his game and it didn't end well for the poor fella. We had a couple of messages from wolfpackers about it - Josh on email, and Gordon on voicemail - the thrust of the messaging was how do we prevent happening to us, what happened to Calum.Firstly Nick and Mark chat about the weekend in Bahrain for him, Mark didn't see a lot of it, Nick saw plenty and runs through the various scenarios that played out. In the end, it comes back to routine, and Nick and Mark explain why that is the case, and how you should look to construct yours to ensure what happened to Calum doesn't happen to you.We're live from Titleist and FootJoy HQ thanks to our great partners:BMW, luxury and comfort for the 19th hole;Titleist, the #1 ball in golf;FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in golf;PING will help you play your best;Golf Clearance Outlet, they beat everyone's prices;Betr, the fastest and easiest betting app in Australia;And watchMynumbers and Southern Golf Club.

This week we talk about the European Union, India, and tariffs.We also discuss trade barriers, free trade, and dumping.Recommended Book: The Kill Chain by Christian BroseTranscriptA free trade agreement, sometimes called a free trade treaty, is a law that reduces the cost and regulatory burden of trading between two or more states.There are many theories as to the ideal way to do international trade, with some economists and politicians positing that complete free and open trade is the way to go, because it allows goods and services to cross borders completely unencumbered, which in turn allows businesses in different countries to really lean into whatever they're good at, selling their cars to countries that are less good at making cars, while that recipient country produces soy beans or computer chips or whatever they're good at making, and sending those in the other direction, likewise unburdened by stiff tariffs or regulatory hurdles. Each country can thus produce the best product cheapest and sell it to the market where their products are in high-demand, while they, in turn, benefit from the same when it comes to other products and services.This theory leans on the idea that everyone is better off when everyone does what they're best at, rather than trying to do everything—specialization. But those who oppose this conception of international trade argue that this creates and reinforces asymmetries between different nations and businesses: a country that's really good at producing soybeans may be at a substantial disadvantage if the country that makes cars ever decides to go to war, because they won't have the existing infrastructure to build tanks or drones or whatever else, while the country that specializes in computer chips might hold all the cards when it comes to generating economic pressure against its enemies or would-be enemies, because such chips are in everything these days, from military hardware to kitchen appliances.This also creates potential frailties for countries that specialize in, say, buggy whips, only to have a new technology like the automobile come around and put a significant chunk of their total economy out of business.This theory may also leave local businesses that don't lean into a regional strength kind of in the lurch. If a country with a decent-sized automobile industry decides leaves their borders completely open to international competition, there's a chance that could light a fire under those local producers, forcing them to become more competitive, but there's also a chance it could collapse the market for local offerings—their cars might no longer be desirable, because the international stuff flooding across the borders from a nation that has heavily prioritized making cars are just so much better and cheaper, whether naturally or artificially, because of subsidies by that foreign government meant to help them take out international competition.This is why most nations have all sorts of tariffs, regulations, and other trade barriers erected between them and their trading partners, and why those trade barriers are ultra-specific, different for every single possible trade partner. The goal is to make international options less appealing by making them more expensive, or making it trickier for foreign competition to smoothly and quickly get their products on your shelves, while still making those things available in a volume that aligns with local consumer demands. And then ideally making it easier and cheaper for your stuff to get on their shelves.The negotiation of all this is massively complicated because Country A might want to favor their soybean farmers, who are an important voting bloc, and Country B might want to do the same for their car industry, because tax income from that industry is vital, and these two governments will thus do what they can to ensure their favored local industries and businesses have the biggest leg-up possible in as many foreign markets as possible, without giving away so much to their trade partners that they create worse situations for other industries and businesses (and the people who run them) on the home-front, as a consequence.What I'd like to talk about today is a recent, massive and potentially quite vital trade deal that was struck in early 2026, and what it might mean for global trade.—At the tail-end of January 2026, the European Commission announced that they had struck what they called “the mother of all deals” with India, this deal the culmination of two decades worth of negotiation, its tenets impacting about 2 billion people and around a quarter of the world's total GDP.The agreement, as is the case with most such agreements, is fairly complex. But in essence it reduces or eliminates tariffs on 96.6% of all EU goods exported to India, which means about 4 billion euros of annual duties that would have otherwise been paid on European products in India will disappear—a savings for Indian consumers, and a boon for European producers whose products will now be cheaper in India.This is expected to be especially beneficial for European automakers like Volkswagen, Renault, and BMW, which have long been weighed down by a 110% tariff in India; that tariff will be reduced to as little as 10% on the first 250,000 vehicles sold, following this agreement. Lower priced vehicles will still face higher tariffs, to help protect India's local carmakers, but electric vehicles will benefit from a five-year grace period, as India has been focusing on allowing as many cheap, renewable energy assets and infrastructure into the country as possible, regardless of where they come from.Tariffs on machinery, chemicals, and pharmaceuticals coming from the EU will be almost entirely eliminated, down from tariff rates of 44, 22, and 11%, respectively. Wine, which has long been tariffed at a rate of 150%, will be cut to between 20-30% for many varieties, and spirits from the EU coming into India will see 150% tariffs cut to 40%.On the other side of this deal, the EU will also open its market to Indian goods, reducing tariffs on about 99.5% of all such goods, including seafood, textiles, gems and jewelry, leather goods, plastic products, and toys. Several of these categories, like Indian seafood, textile-making, and other labor-intensive industries, have had a rough time of late, because of high US tariffs enforced by President Trump's second administration, so this is being seen as a significant win for them in particular.Interestingly, while the reduction in trade barriers is substantial here, and the number of people and industries, and amount of money that's involved is massive, this deal doesn't include, and in some cases explicitly excludes, any agreements related to labor rights, climate commitment, or environmental standards.This means that while the European Union has thus far been pretty strict in terms of ensuring incoming products align with their policies and values regarding things like carbon emissions and ensuring goods aren't produced by people laboring in slave-like conditions, this deal falls short of such enforcements, allowing India to operate with relative impunity, with regards to those issues, at least, and still sell with dramatically reduced barriers, on the European market. That's a big deal, and is perhaps the biggest indicator of just how badly the EU wanted to make this deal work.The EU was also able to keep significant protections in place for important local sectors like beef and chicken, dairy, rice, and sugar—all industries in which India would have liked to compete in the EU, but which, because of those maintained barriers, they practically can't. That would likely have been a feverishly negotiated topic, and it's likely an indicator of how much India wanted this to work, too.On that note, both India and the EU were apparently especially interested in making this multi-decade deal work, now, because of increasing pressure from China on one side and the US on the other.China has been rerouting many of its cheap products that would have previously gone to the US market, elsewhere, engaging in what's often called ‘dumping' which slowly but surely puts businesses that produce comparable products at a profit in those local target markets out of business, at which point these Chinese companies can then ratchet up their prices and profits, operating without real competition.The EU and India have both been targeted by Chinese companies taking this approach, because they're still producing at a feverish pace and because of US tariffs and the general unpredictability and irregularity of US policy overall under the second Trump administration, they've been firing that cheap product cannon more intensely at other large markets, instead—and India and the EU are the next two big markets in line right now, after the US and China.On the US side of things, those same tariffs have been hurting companies in both the EU and India that would otherwise been shipping their goods to the rich and spendy US market, and in many cases these tariffs have been fine-tuned to hurt important local industries as much as possible, because that's one of Trump's main negotiating tactics: lead with pain and then negotiate to take some of the pain away.This deal, then, serves multiple purposes in that it creates a valuable, newly polished trade relationship between a rich and powerful existing bloc and the newly most-populous country on the planet, which is also rapidly expanding economically and geopolitically.One last point to note, here, though, is that the European Union has been trying to create these sorts of mutually beneficial deals with non-US partners for a while, now, and the two most recent wins, trade deals with a South American trade bloc and with Indonesia, in early January 2026 and in September of 2025, respectively, have borne mixed results.The deal with Indonesia seems to be moving forward apace, and while it's a heck of a lot smaller than the India deal, only worth about 27 billion euros, that's still important, as Indonesia is increasingly important, both economically and geopolitically, especially in a Southeast Asia that's slowly reinforcing itself against China's economically and potentially militarily expansionist tendencies.The deal with that South American bloc, however, was referred to the EU Court of Justice in mid-January for legal review due to its lack of alignment with other EU treaties, and that could delay or prevent its ratification.This new mother of all deals with India could likewise face holdups, or could fizzle before being implemented—though most analysts who are keeping eyes on this are seeing it not just as an economic agreement, but a gesture of solidarity at a moment in which China and the US are signaling their intent to carve up the world into hemispheric hegemonies, when those who might otherwise be forced into subordinate positions are scrambling to figure out who they can team up with and create counter-balancing forces capable of standing up against current and future aggression and coercion.There's a chance that even if politics and propriety threaten to get in the way, then, India and the EU will figure out a way to work together, on this and potentially other matters of global import, as well.Show

Durante más de dos décadas, tres letras dominaron las carreteras europeas y pusieron en jaque el concepto tradicional de deportividad: TDI. Lo que comenzó como una búsqueda de eficiencia para vehículos de trabajo terminó convirtiéndose en un fenómeno cultural que cambió para siempre nuestra percepción del gasóleo. Es la historia de cómo el Grupo Volkswagen llevó el motor diésel de la monotonía de los taxis a la gloria de las 24 Horas de Le Mans, para terminar enfrentándose a su capítulo más oscuro con el Dieselgate. Para entender la revolución que supuso el TDI, debemos recordar qué significaba conducir un coche diésel antes de los años 90. En aquella época, comprar un diésel era una decisión puramente racional y económica. Eran motores atmosféricos, lentos, extremadamente ruidosos y con unas vibraciones que hacían que el habitáculo pareciera una hormigonera. Eran coches para taxistas, viajantes de comercio y conductores con una paciencia infinita. Volkswagen ya había dado un primer aviso en 1982 con el Golf GTD (MK1). Utilizando el chasis de un GTI y un motor 1.6 turbodiésel de 70 CV, demostraron que se podía ir "alegre" gastando poco. Sin embargo, todavía faltaba ese ingrediente secreto que transformara la eficiencia en emoción. El "Big Bang" tecnológico ocurrió en 1989. Aunque otros fabricantes como Fiat habían experimentado con la inyección directa, fue Audi quien perfeccionó la fórmula con el Audi 100 TDI (Turbo Direct Injection). A mediados de los 90, la tecnología evolucionó hacia lo que muchos entusiastas consideran la cumbre del carácter diésel: el sistema de Inyector-Bomba. En lugar de una bomba común, cada cilindro contaba con su propia unidad de presión accionada por el árbol de levas, alcanzando presiones de hasta 2.050 bares. Esta arquitectura técnica generaba una combustión violentísima. No era una entrega de potencia lineal como la de un motor de gasolina; era una "patada" de par motor a bajas revoluciones que lanzaba el coche hacia adelante con una fuerza inusitada. Esa entrega de potencia bruta, especialmente en modelos como el Golf MK4, enamoró a una generación que descubrió que podía tener prestaciones de deportivo con consumos de utilitario. El éxito de estos motores creó un lenguaje visual propio en los portones traseros de los vehículos. Las siglas TDI y el color de sus letras se convirtieron en un indicador de estatus prestacional: -TDI (Plata): El motor estándar de 90 o 100 CV. -TDI (I en rojo): El motor de 110 CV o el primer 115 CV. -TDI (DI en rojo): El equilibrio perfecto. -TDI (Todo en rojo): El "Santo Grial". El éxito de Volkswagen obligó al resto de la industria a reaccionar, dando lugar a una de las épocas más interesantes de la ingeniería automotriz, donde el diésel se aplicó a conceptos impensables: -Seat León FR y Cupra TDI. -Mercedes-Benz C30 CDI AMG. -Skoda Fabia RS. -BMW 123d. -Renault Mégane RS dCi. En un alarde de poderío técnico, el Grupo Volkswagen llevó el TDI a extremos casi absurdos. El Volkswagen Touareg V10 TDI y el Audi Q7 V12 TDI de 500 CV y 1.000 Nm de par, fueron las cumbres de esta era de exceso. Pero donde realmente el diésel dictó las reglas fue en los circuitos. Audi dominó las 24 Horas de Le Mans ganando 8 ediciones entre 2006 y 2014 con sus prototipos TDI. La clave no era solo la velocidad punta, sino un par motor descomunal para salir de las curvas y una eficiencia que les permitía pasar mucho menos tiempo en boxes que sus rivales de gasolina. El principio del fin llegó por dos frentes. Primero, el límite físico de la tecnología Inyector-Bomba. Aunque era brillante para generar potencia, su dureza de funcionamiento y el ruido impedían cumplir con las normativas Euro 5 y Euro 6. En 2008, el grupo tuvo que migrar al sistema Common Rail, más suave y refinado, pero que perdió esa "patada" característica que definía a los TDI clásicos. El golpe de gracia fue el escándalo del Dieselgate en 2015. El descubrimiento de un software diseñado para engañar en las pruebas de emisiones destruyó la imagen de "tecnología limpia" que el diésel había ostentado. De ser la solución ecológica por sus bajas emisiones de CO2, pasó a ser el villano por sus altas emisiones de óxidos de nitrógeno (NOx). Pese a este final “infeliz”, aquellos TDI de "letras rojas" permanecen en la memoria como los últimos representantes de una era de ingeniería auda.

Phew it's a big show, so much to get through!We start today by discussing the phenomenon of Justin Rose. Nick and Mark both love how he plays, his attitude on the course and his focus off it. They explain why. Nick recalls playing with him as a young pro and even in Justin's difficult earlier days on tour, his attitude was always great. Nick gives Justin the BMW 'Touch of Class' today on the show, and shares a great story about his partnership arrangement with Morgan Stanley. We look at some of Justin's stats from the Underdog Golf Twitter page.Mark found the seemingly relentless coverage of Brooks Koepka at Torrey Pines at the weekend amusing. He reckons they showed nearly every shot of Brooks, and has a theory as to why.News broke last week after our main pod that Patrick Reed was leaving LIV, Nick speculates as to the reasons why and we discuss who they might replace him with.Bahrain at the weekend....goodness. Calum Hill had a pretty tough time. We touch on it, but we'll come back tomorrow and do a mini discussing what happened to him and how you can prevent it happening to your game.Okay...we need to discuss this. Keegan Bradley is out of control. For viewers on YouTube we watch an extraordinary clip, which Nick and Mark commentate through on the pod. His aim point technique is 'terrible' and Mark says that Keegan needs to be 'shamed' for it. He gives his solution to the problem, Nick has a different one and gives his. Both agree it's out of control and the PGA are allowing it to happen. Mark says that if this can be fixed, then it's a real 'plus' for golf.Another bad look for golf was the LPGA opening tournament in Orlando. Weather issues sure, a shortened event, the course was unplayable until it wasn't. The whole thing was a mess. That said Nelly Korda played incredibly.Marks Top 5 for Betr today is the Top 5 farces in golf....one player makes two appearances ! And Nick and Mark discuss refusing to sign another players card when they knew he had cheated.And then - we're about to hook into the PING Globals, and our great mate, David ,The Ox, Schwarz, wanders into the studio unannounced! So of course we have to chat to him.....he has a couple of ripping stories from his golf club - one about the disastrous spring roll situation, and another about the time the drinks cart was cancelled on a 40-degree (celsius) day. He also tells us about our mate Scotty Cummings getting his first Ace !!! Always great to see The Ox.Anyway back to the PING Globals, and there's been a boatload of results over the last few days and Nick runs through them. Into some feedback and we start with a brutal one....a member of the pod gets a serious whack from wolfpacker Daniel. Plenty of other feedback on the dress code conversation, and a wolfpacker who tried Marks 'tip of the century' last week to great success.And we wrap the show with a masterclass on taking spin off the ball from Nick O'Hern for Golf Clearance Outlet.Fun show today!We're live from Titleist and FootJoy HQ thanks to our great partners:BMW, luxury and comfort for the 19th hole;Titleist, the #1 ball in golf;FootJoy, the #1 shoe and glove in golf;PING will help you play your best;Golf Clearance Outlet, they beat everyone's prices;Betr, the fastest and easiest betting app in Australia;And watchMynumbers and Southern Golf Club.

Produktmanagement wird dauernd erwähnt, aber selten wirklich erklärt. Und genau da entsteht oft der Frust: Feature Requests prasseln rein, das Jira Backlog wächst wie Unkraut, Stakeholder eskalieren, und am Ende fragt sich jede:r im Team, wer hier eigentlich was entscheidet. Klingt bekannt? Dann ist diese Episode für dich.In dieser Episode schließen wir eine längst überfällige Lücke und steigen tief in das Thema Produktmanagement ein. Zu Gast ist Michael Gasch, Product Manager bei AWS im Serverless Umfeld. Mit ihm schauen wir uns an, was Produktmanagement wirklich ist, warum es nicht einfach Projektmanagement mit neuem Label ist und wie AWS Rollen wie PMT, SDM und TPM trennt, um Delivery, Priorisierung und Ownership sauber zu verzahnen.Wir sprechen über Working Backwards und PR/FAQ Dokumente, datengetriebene Priorisierung unter Dauerbeschuss, Paper Cuts vs. große Launches, Disagree and Commit, Bias for Action und wie Erfolg nach einem GA Launch über Metriken, Telemetrie und Kundenfeedback messbar wird. Als Praxisbeispiel nehmen wir ein echtes AWS Feature: Durable Functions in AWS Lambda, von der Idee im Kopf bis zur AWS re:Invent Bühne.Zum Schluss gibt es noch ein paar Tips:Wie kannst du proaktiver in Produktentscheidungen werden, bessere Inputs liefern und vielleicht sogar selbst Richtung Produktmanagement wechseln?Spoiler: Anforderungsanalyse, Ownership und ein bisschen STAR Methode können viel bewegen.Bonus: Wenn du dachtest, AI macht Produktmanager:innen überflüssig, warten hier ein paar ziemlich gute Gegenargumente auf dich.Unsere aktuellen Werbepartner findest du auf https://engineeringkiosk.dev/partnersDas schnelle Feedback zur Episode:

This week we are still in Palm Springs, and so is Dennis. Golnessa quickly decides he needs to vacate the premises. There is a scary moment when they race BMWs, followed by an even scarier dinner, where Sky goes at it with Greg, Reza, and finally Golnessa.If you enjoyed this episode please share it with your Bravo friends and follow us on Instagram at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@taglinetwinks⁠⁠

Mientras la Fórmula 1 no quiere darnos nada de emoción y se oculta, el mundo del motor ya ha vivido tres grandes citas competitivas que han marcado el inicio del año: el Dakar, el Rally de Montecarlo y las 24 Horas de Daytona. Este segundo episodio del Podcast Técnica Fórmula 1 nos pone al día con los últimos eventos, muy distintos, pero unidos por la intensidad, la emoción y la aparición de protagonistas inesperados. Montecarlo y su idilio con la nieve. El Rally de Montecarlo volvió a demostrar por qué es una de las pruebas más especiales del calendario. Nieve, hielo, tramos mojados y condiciones cambiantes ofrecieron un escenario clásico y exigente, en el que el talento al volante marcó la diferencia. El gran nombre propio fue Oliver Solberg, que firmó una actuación sobresaliente y se impuso con autoridad frente a rivales de primer nivel. Ni la regularidad y velocidad de Elfyn Evans ni la experiencia y agresividad de Sébastien Ogier fueron suficientes para frenar al joven piloto, que dominó el rally prácticamente de principio a fin. Toyota volvió a mostrarse como la referencia técnica del campeonato, mientras que Hyundai quedó muy lejos de las posiciones de cabeza y Ford pasó prácticamente desapercibida. Aunque solo se ha disputado una prueba, el rendimiento mostrado plantea interrogantes sobre la capacidad real de sus rivales para plantar cara a la marca japonesa a lo largo de la temporada. Además, el gran momento de forma de Solberg y Evans abre el debate sobre si a Ogier le saldrá a cuenta no disputar el campeonato completo. Daytona: 24 horas dan para mucho. Al otro lado del Atlántico, las 24 Horas de Daytona ofrecieron un espectáculo irregular pero emocionante en su desenlace. La carrera estuvo marcada por una elevada cantidad de neutralizaciones debido a la niebla, lo que restó continuidad y ritmo durante muchas horas. Aun así, las fases finales devolvieron la emoción, con luchas cerradas en prácticamente todas las categorías. Alex Palou volvió a marcharse de Daytona sin el ansiado trofeo, esta vez por una penalización que condicionó el resultado final de su coche. En GTD Pro y GTD, la variedad de marcas y equipos volvió a demostrar la excelente salud de las competiciones de resistencia (y eso nos encanta, después de unos años de bajón), con BMW, Mercedes, Porsche, Ferrari, Corvette y Aston Martin protagonizando una batalla constante hasta la bandera a cuadros. A mal tiempo, buena cara. Mientras la F1 se esconde, el resto del automovilismo ya ha empezado a ofrecer grandes historias, actuaciones memorables y preguntas que solo el paso de las carreras podrá responder. Y es que Montecarlo y Daytona han servido como un potente aperitivo de lo que promete ser una temporada apasionante. Esperemos que la FOM espabile y se una a la fiesta de los aficionados.

Shoot us a Text.Episode #1255: Waymo gains ground on rideshare rivals as Tesla undercuts them all. A global study shows bad CX drives customers away faster than high prices. And automakers pull back from Super Bowl ads, choosing more flexible, efficient buys.Only two automakers — Toyota and Cadillac — are confirmed for Super Bowl 2026, as most brands step away from the pricey event. Facing budget pressure and chasing efficiency, car companies are shifting spend to longer campaigns across other live events.Brands like Ford, BMW, Kia, Honda, Nissan, and Stellantis are sitting it out, citing affordability and better ROI elsewhere.With a $9 million price tag per 30 seconds plus production, the Super Bowl is losing appeal amid industry cost pressures.Automakers are turning to the Olympics, World Cup, and NBA All-Star Game for more cost-effective, multi-week campaigns.“There's no secret that the premium of being in the Super Bowl certainly would come at the expense of having some additional investment,” said Sean Gilpin, Hyundai CMO.Waymo is becoming a real contender in ride-hailing while Tesla goes for a classic price war play. A new Obi study compares autonomous and traditional services, showing a market reshaping rapidly — especially in San Francisco.Waymo's robotaxi pricing has dropped and is now only 12.7% more than Uber and 27.3% more than Lyft, compared to 30–40% higher in mid-2025.Tesla Robotaxi leads on price at just $8.17 per ride, but lags with 15.32-minute average wait times.Obi CEO Ashwini Anburajan: “They're using the playbook that Uber and Lyft used... and we know that playbook works."Consumers now prioritize customer experience over price with 59% abandoning a brand after one bad experience versus 55% fleeing due to price hikes, according to a global Havas CX study. Consistency and emotional connection are key drivers of loyalty.A global survey of 59,000+ shoppers shows experience matters more than cost — more consumers ditch brands after poor service than high prices.Consistent, seamless experiences across digital and physical channels top what customers value most.Emotional connection and personalization now weigh as heavily as functional efficiency in shaping CX.“Loyalty can only be earned by delivering unwavering consistency, authentic personal connection, and experiences that create lasting emotional memories,” says David Shulman.This episode of the Automotive State of the Union is brought to you by Amazon Autos: MeetJoin Paul J Daly and Kyle Mountsier every morning for the Automotive State of the Union podcast as they connect the dots across car dealerships, retail trends, emerging tech like AI, and cultural shifts—bringing clarity, speed, and people-first insight to automotive leaders navigating a rapidly changing industry.Get the Daily Push Back email at https://www.asotu.com/ JOIN the conversation on LinkedIn at: https://www.linkedin.com/company/asotu/

Sports cars comprise around 1% of new car sales these days, sadly. We discuss, and Steve-0 and our trauma surgeon Dr Stephan Moran pick our five favorite sports cars of all time.Trauma surgeon safety segment: For many years, Dr Moran has been advocating for better crash dummies ("They should have 20 different size and gender dummies lined up, and the tester can pick any one and put it into a car and run the test", is what he's been saying). Chinese manufacturer Geely has built a safety testing facility that can test 60 crash dummies, so finally someone out there has been paying attention and making cars safer through better crash testing. Dr Moran discusses.Stephan spots an insane Honda Accord. Us old guys think it's Fugly, but presumably "da kids" love it.Steve-0 gets into 2025 new car sales data and draws some conclusions: big pickups rule, compact crossovers and big SUVs are selling like crazy, BEVs are fading fast, and BMW is dominating the luxury market (with Lexus close behind).#carsoncallpodcast #automobile #traumasurgeonsafety #sportscar #bmw #lexus

As we continue our quest through season 7, the hosts knew they had to reunite with a central figure (and roommate) from Boy Meets World: Jack Hunter himself, a.k.a. Matthew Lawrence. Matthew explains why he finally felt comfortable during the final season, and how making Will crack up on set was easier than you’d think. The gang also dives into Jack’s underdeveloped storylines, the abrupt end of his love story and why BMW was unlike any other sitcom set. All this on a new Pod Meets World, buddy!
