Esto es un extracto de la tertulia de AutoFM que se emite cada jueves en Onda Cero Mayo cerró con 99 víctimas mortales en las carreteras españolas, ocho más que en el mismo mes de 2024, a pesar de que la movilidad volvió a crecer un 3 %. El dato destaca por la gravedad de algunos siniestros: se contabilizaron tres accidentes con varias víctimas en los que perdieron la vida tres, tres y cuatro personas respectivamente, reflejando una tendencia al alza en los choques con saldo múltiple. El perfil del fallecido cambia este año: los usuarios de turismos y camiones concentran el repunte, con siete muertos más en cada uno de estos medios de transporte respecto a mayo del año pasado. En contraste, las colisiones frontales y los atropellos a peatones descendieron, pero el principal enemigo continúa siendo la salida de vía: provocó 57 de las 99 muertes, es decir, 23 más que hace un año y casi seis de cada diez decesos del mes. Persisten, por último, las carencias en el uso de sistemas de retención. Diecinueve fallecidos –quince en turismo, dos en camión, uno en furgoneta y uno en moto– viajaban sin el correspondiente cinturón o casco en el momento del siniestro. Estas cifras confirman que la protección pasiva sigue siendo un eslabón clave para reducir la letalidad en un escenario de tráfico cada vez más intenso.

Hey everyone, welcome to the VO Boss Podcast. 01:04 - Anne (Host) I'm your host, Anne Ganguzza. Hey everyone, welcome to the VO Boss Podcast. I'm your host, Anne Ganguzza, and today I have the pleasure and honor of being with a very special guest, Jennifer Sims. Jennifer, yay! Hi, hi. 01:17 For those bosses who do not know Jennifer, she is a voice actor coach and 100% certified smarty pants. I'm so jealous, so jealous of that branding. She's known for her authentic, conversational, confident, and playful delivery and has a unique perspective from both sides of the glass, and works for clients such as Hyundai, Wells Fargo, CVS, Vons—the list goes on and on and on. She honed her quirky sense of humor studying comedy and improv, which is always so important, I think, for us as voice actors, at the Upright Citizens Brigade and The Groundlings, and that helped her to land on-camera commercials for Uber, Snapchat, and WebMD. She began her acting career out of high school and basically was on her own for a short period of time in LA as a very young girl, which is great, and also as a producer, has had the pleasure of collaborating on hundreds of radio, television, and promo spots and has worked with some amazing talent along the way. And what haven't you done, Jennifer Sims? 02:18 - Jennifer (Host) I'm telling you, so much, so much. Thank you, Anne. That was lovely. Not as much as I'd like, and hopefully more. Yeah, thank you. It's great to be here. Thanks for having me. 02:28 - Anne (Host) Yeah, absolutely. Well, I met you—well, I met you not like physically, but I met you through our VIP room and I was so, so impressed with your background and your wisdom and everything. So I wanted to make sure that I had an opportunity to have you on the show and so our bosses could also get to know you. So let's talk a little bit about your varied career, because I think it's super important in terms of why you're so successful now and how you started off with acting and then as a producer. Talk about that for a little bit and tell us how it's helped you become successful in your voiceover career. 03:06 - Jennifer (Host) Yeah, that's been very, like, it informs most of my career, certainly in the beginning, because when I decided to leave my director of broadcast job, I was working for an ad agency here in Los Angeles as the director of broadcast and I was bringing in a lot of voice actors for promo and commercials, etc. You know how it is when you see somebody and you're like, "Boo, why do they get to do it? I want to do it too!" But as I started my career, realizing that we're a part of the process, voice actors are part of a process, particularly in commercial, since that was my area, and when I was bringing in voice actors to record them, it comes very late in the process. Recording the voice actor for a commercial is one of the last things we do as a process in creating a commercial. 03:52 So, knowing that we're just—not just, I shouldn't say this, but we're part of a collaborative team, we're now brought into the team. We're problem solvers, we're creatives, along with the creative director, copywriter, and understanding why the copy is the way it is. I know a lot of us will—problem solvers, we're creatives, along with the creative director, copywriter, and understanding why the copy is the way it is. I know a lot of us will go, "Oh, this copy is terrible. It's poorly written," and, like, you don't know where that copy has gone. 04:12 - Anne (Host) Isn't that the truth? I love that you just opened up with that perspective because, honestly, like the nuggets of wisdom that people get out of listening—you brought them right at the front when people get for listening to a podcast or being educated. I love the fact that we are part of a process and you brought that to our attention because I think a lot of times we're in our bubble in our studios here and we forget that it's not just all about our voice, but it's part of a process and there's reasons for so many things. Right? There's reasons, and you're so absolutely right. 04:46 How many times have you gotten a piece of copy and I've heard my students, "Oh my God, this copy sucks!" Or I've read on some forum where people are like, "Oh my God, the copy sucks," and "Why does the copy suck?" But I think it's important to know that, yeah, we are part of a collaborative process and it doesn't begin and end with us, and that's an important part to understand so that we know where we fit in. And the more that I think we can predict how we can fit in best to complete the process, I think will really help us as actors. 05:13 - Jennifer (Host) Yeah, exactly, really well said and so true. It's like, how do we fit into this process? Because we do, and even now, as an actor working on my, I will sort of forget that there's a lot going on and that when I get copy and I'm like, "Oh, well, I don't know how many R&D, research and development meetings they had on this copy. I don't know what focus groups might have said about this copy." Like, big companies spend a lot of time and money making sure that their copy is delivering a message that they want, money making sure that their copy is delivering a message that they want, and a lot of things. On the ad agency side, we're looking at things—that copy, and I'm like, "Well, legal says we can't say that." 05:51 Right, or legal says we have to say this. So, you know, when we're sort of like, "Boo, the copy couldn't be you," it's like, "Well, you don't know why." Yeah, it may be a legal thing. 06:06 - Anne (Host) It may be a client directive, it may be, who knows. I always try to remember that because, like somebody, somewhere was paid money to write this copy, and they know that product, or there's an intent with that product, or there's an intent with that copy that we are not necessarily aware of, nor do they tell us, but it's something that I think that we, as actors, we need to create that story, even if they're not telling us what it is. We need to create that story so that we can connect as much as possible to that copy and fit into like what they hear in their head. Right? We need to fit that spec there. 06:34 - Jennifer (Host) Exactly, and I think it also goes to the idea of given a level playing field of extremely talented actors. Most often, I only needed one person to do the job to solve the problem of whatever problem we were trying to solve creatively. And so I think it's easy to start to feel like, "Oh, I got rejected. I don't book this kind of work." It's like, given a level playing field, just assume that somebody got selected. But it—a level playing field, just assume that somebody got selected, but it doesn't mean that everyone else was rejected. Honestly, as I was listening to actors, I'm like, I wouldn't get in all my auditions for, say, a television commercial voiceover, and I would maybe listen to 50, a hundred, and then call it down to present to my boss, my creative director and client, maybe 10. And any one of those people could have booked it. Somebody got selected, that's all. 07:27 - Anne (Host) It's just a matter of selection, and the thing of it is is that you're at the beginning of that process, listening to all of those auditions. You would narrow it down to a particular amount of people, but then, ultimately, the decision is not necessarily yours. So I think, voice actors, we forget that, that it can go to your boss and your boss is not. Maybe a casting director doesn't have an ear for it, or just this is what he had—he or she had in mind. And so the pick from then. I don't think it's always necessarily based on your acting skills. It's just like a feeling, maybe, that they have. "Oh, yeah, this sounds right." 08:02 - Jennifer (Host) Yeah, it's very subjective. Yeah, it's very subjective. 08:05 - Anne (Host) And I think we forget that. 08:07 - Jennifer (Host) Yeah, and I know that, being that it's so subjective, if you sound just not quite what they want. I had a creative director. I was presenting talent. This woman was extremely talented. I was advocating for her. He's like, "Eh, she sounds a lot like..." I forget if it was his cousin or his ex-wife or somebody. He's like, "And I don't like that person." So she just reminded him vocally of somebody in his world that he's like, "Don't like." She was very good, like perfect for the role, and, subjectively, my creative director was like, "Nope, reminds me of someone, and I don't like that person. Bye." And I'm like, "All right. Well, that's how that's going to go." Or we get replaced. I was the voice of a promo for a really, really long time. It was a great recurring gig and somebody new came in at the top. The client switched positions, new client, and they're like, "No, I want to pick the voiceover," and so, like, I was out. They felt like that was the prior stamp. 09:06 And now they wanted to stamp it with their own. 09:09 - Anne (Host) That's such a good point because a lot of times, like companies change directors, companies change in departments, and a lot of times you may be the indirect result of that or not like being let go because of things like that that you have absolutely no control over. And so that is also a big part of the process in our heads as actors. We need to remember that on any given day, that it's not always—I think that if you can come into your audition with the skills that you need—the actor skills. Everybody says, "What's trending? What's trending these days? What's the sound these days?" And I'm like, "I think just be an actor, have good acting skills." 09:48 Maybe have good acting skills, because I feel like if you have good acting skills and the person, like say you, right, that is at the initial level of listening to all of the auditions, right, you're going to be able to hear that from the get-go, from the first few words. You're going to hear, "Okay, here's an actor. Now, what I like about this actor is that I can work with this actor." So maybe they didn't give the precise read that you were looking for at the time, but you know that they're an actor and that they'll be able to be directed. Exactly. And I think that's so important—best that you can come in with in your audition, to be armed with your acting skills, to showcase those acting skills, because all the other stuff we just have no control over. 10:25 - Jennifer (Host) Exactly. Control what you can. You know, getting auditions in a timely—Anne, naming them properly, file naming. I always talk about like naming those. 10:34 - Anne (Host) Like, why is that so difficult? I don't know. I come from a technology background. It always amazes me how many times people like don't understand how to name files when here's the convention and yet somehow. Right, just copy and paste it and then write your name. 10:50 - Jennifer (Host) I don't know why, but I don't think actors realize that if they mislabel a file, it's going in the trash. That'll piss off somebody. 10:57 - Anne (Host) I mean, like me, especially somebody that I'm handling a lot of files, right, and especially like if I have control over it, like you're not hired, and if you're going to argue with me about the name of that file, or if I gave you a confusing—no. I mean, sorry, just follow the following instructions. 11:12 - Jennifer (Host) But yeah, I think that actors may not realize that if you are missing those little details, like not following the spec, or because you're just like running and gunning and just like, "I'm in a hurry, I'll just read the copy," or not connecting to the copy, or mislabeling the file, it's like that's going to get you booted out of the mix because there's just not enough time and people don't understand. "Oh, so I put my name before the client's name." It's like if you're in casting or you're producing, you're not just casting one thing. So if you put your name first before the client's name, I don't know what to do with this file. Or usually it goes into a database and so the database is just going to go, "I don't know what to do with this. Garbage." I think people just realizing like why it's so important could be helpful. So people just slow down a little bit and go, "Oh, what's the file convention?" That's it. That's my TED Talk on file name. 12:03 - Anne (Host) There you go. I like that. Well, I'm right there with you on the file—I'm on the file name, I know, because you're dealing with hundreds of files, I know, right? I mean. So I touched upon this a little bit in your bio, which I think is so interesting, is that you studied comedy. Talk to us. And improv, of course, everybody always says, "Yes, improv, improv," yes, and improv, of course, is so important. But I also think comedy, too, is important, because this is just my outside looking in perspective, right? When we're listening, right, we need to command the attention of the audience. Right? Whether we're voicing a commercial or a corporate narration or whatever it is, we need to engage the attention of the listener and that is important. And I feel like comedy is absolutely one of those techniques that can be used to get people's attention and keep it, and I think it's important that if you have comedy in your script, that you can find it and you can execute it. So talk to us a little bit about that and the importance of comedy and improv. 12:58 - Jennifer (Host) Definitely. Have you been seeing a lot of scripts or a lot of castings where it's like we want people with comedy and improv, even though they may not ask you to necessarily be super hilarious or improv, they're listening for a nuance? A nuance, exactly. Comedy is like very subtle, I think, in voiceover, because when I was producing on the agency side back in the day, comedy in commercials was a lot more prevalent. We had double copy. We very rarely have two characters talking anymore, so it was a little more like in your face kind of comedy. 13:33 Yeah, back and forth kind of. Yeah, back and forth, you could riff off the other person. Now we're pretty much just doing one person voiceover, so that comedy has to be layered in, but never steal from the actual hero—our product or our client. And I think a lot of times when we're newer as voice actors, we're going for the "yucks" like, and it's like, "No, that's going to get you also noticed for all the wrong reasons." So I think I agree with you entirely. It's got to be layered, it's got to be nuanced, and you have to be able to find it. Sometimes people when I'm coaching, they miss the joke. I'm like, "Do you see that there's like a little pithy wit here?" 14:10 - Anne (Host) They're like, "No." I'm like, "Great." Or a play on words. And here's the thing too, you know, in writing scripts for demos and for my students, comedy is tough to execute in a certain time, like comedy is tough, especially if you're doing comedy writing in a demo. It's very tough to execute without sounding like a one-liner dad joke, right? Yeah, oh gosh, so true. And especially if you need to execute that time and just in a 30-second, 15-second commercial, to execute comedy and a sale at the same time is tough. 14:38 It's tough to do, it's really tough and so it does become very nuanced, right? And corporate, like when you get into like something longer, like corporate narration, you're not going to necessarily find too much humor, unless the brand itself doesn't mind making fun of itself, right? There's not many corporate—not many companies, I know, that make fun of themselves unless they have quirky products, right? If that's our corporate culture, great, but a lot of corporate is like, "No, very straightforward." 15:02 But they might have a nuance, right, and so I love the fact that, yes, if they're looking for that nuance and that is something that is it's maybe a nuance, right, and so I love the fact that, yes, if they're looking for that nuance and that is something that is it's maybe a note, it's a wink, it's a point of view that I think if you can execute and it only needs to happen like a little instant, then that to me, I can hear it right away and people can hear it right away. 15:23 They might not put their finger on it and say, "Oh, that was funny, like ha ha, knee slapping funny," yeah, but the execution of it is really it's key, and I think that comedy and improv is wonderful for people to have as a background in their acting skills. Yeah, I agree, comedy's tough. Did you perform like stand-up comedy? 15:42 - Jennifer (Host) No, I actually took a couple. I'm like, "No, I'm a smart-ass," but that was tough. So I took—a friend of mine was teaching. She is a comic and she taught classes and I did two of her classes, and after the first class, she's like, "Okay, and you know, as you know, we're going to an open mic," and it was torture. It was brutal. Just a bar room full of people going, "Make me laugh," and I'm like, "This is hard." 16:11 - Anne (Host) Yeah, I can't imagine. I have a friend who did stand-up in Burbank. Right? Everybody's at Flappers. Everybody's at Flappers and, "Come see my show at Flappers," and if you want to feel challenged, I mean stand-up at a mic in front of an audience. That's like, "All right." 16:26 - Jennifer (Host) Yeah, like just staring at you and you're sitting with the mic going. 16:29 - Anne (Host) Make me laugh. But there's where I think, like the thinking fast on your feet is going to help you, and I think it's going to help you no matter what. I mean those of us who aren't necessarily doing comedy like stand-up comedy, but here we are in our booths and we're doing auditions, right? I think, if you have the time to evaluate and analyze your script and find the humor—I mean we have the luxury of some time of finding that humor and being able to execute upon that. I think if you can do that, if it's there in the copy, that's what you try to put up front and showcase. 17:02 - Jennifer (Host) I always say I'm going to zag. If everyone else is going to zig, I'm at least going to zag appropriately, because they also don't want to be the actors like. "Well, I remember her for the reason that she went off the rails." It has to make sense. 17:15 - Anne (Host) It has to make sense for the copy, right? And so I feel like that improv also, when I ask my students to create the scene, right? Be actors for a corporate narration that might be talking about investments or something that might sound dry. What is that story? Who are you talking to? Why does it matter? 17:31 You've got to be able to have that quick, like, let me create the scene and let me respond to it, right, and that just helps to enhance your script analysis, the speed at which you do that, and also if you're being asked live, like, "Give me an AB of that," or an "ABC of that." 17:45 - Jennifer (Host) Yeah, how are we going to do that if you haven't created exactly scenario? I always think about how, in scene work and acting, we think about the moment before. Yes, and it's always because you'll hear actors, or I've heard this in auditions lots, where I'm listening to an audition, particularly when I was producing, it's like, "I don't even know why." I hear them saying the script. Why are they saying those words? Why are you even talking? It feels like you just sort of like dropped in cold and started talking, but I don't know why. Yeah, and I always can hear an actor who's a little bit more connected to the copy. Yeah, absolutely, and that's because they created some reason for talking in the first place. 18:21 - Anne (Host) Yeah, they created a reason to say those first words. There's got to be a response or a reaction. I say that even for corporate copy, definitely. 18:29 - Jennifer (Host) Even for e-learning. 18:30 - Anne (Host) You know what I mean. Like you've got a student that just asked you a question and so otherwise, it sounds like to me, I'm always telling my students, it sounds like once upon a time I started a monologue. 18:39 - Speaker 2 (Announcement) Yeah. 18:40 - Anne (Host) And it just became like, "Oh, I picked this thought out of the air and I just started saying it." 18:44 - Jennifer (Host) And there's no reason for it, and so it's weird how we can hear that, isn't that weird? It's like the microphone, sort of like picking up your thoughts, sort of like the camera records thought. That's why you've got to have something going on behind your eyes. 18:55 - Anne (Host) I think it's like you can hear somebody reading, right, because there's a certain melody and—and I know there's got to be scientific evidence, right? There's a melody that we have when we read words and I know it very well because I'm always telling people to stop reading. Start talking. 19:08 - Jennifer (Host) Stop reading. You sound like you're reading. 19:11 - Anne (Host) And so there's a melody to just reading the words, and it seems to start at the same pitch, like, "Hi, I'm Anne, I started here once upon a time." I've heard casting talk about this. 19:21 - Jennifer (Host) Voice casting agents will talk about this all the time. It's like, again, given a level playing field, the first people we're going to boot out of the running are people who sound like they're reading as opposed to talking, and it's a challenging skill set because we are literally reading scripts, but we're interpreting written speech into spoken speech, and it's a skill set. So it takes time. And I was thinking about how, whenever I'm auditioning for something, I think, well, I'd love to book it, of course, but I always think I'm not auditioning for this one, I'm auditioning for the next one, because, let's say, you know, I don't get selected for this one. I want you to remember me for the next one. So, something I do in this audition, I want to spark a little like, "Well, let's keep her in mind for something else down the road," because that's all I can control, absolutely, absolutely. 20:13 - Anne (Host) Speaking of auditioning and being an active voice actor and a woman of a certain age, and I say that, you look amazing. 20:19 - Jennifer (Host) Well, thank you, but let's face it. We've been in the business for a while, not a teenager. 20:25 - Anne (Host) Yeah, I cannot sound millennial, no matter what. 20:27 - Speaker 2 (Announcement) I do, even though I have a younger sounding voice. 20:29 - Anne (Host) No, it's mostly in the attitude. But let's talk a little bit about having been in the community and been in the industry for a while. What's it like these days being a little bit older in this industry? How are you finding work? Is it plentiful? Are you finding? 20:42 - Jennifer (Host) Yeah, I mean it's plentiful, but I still think that in general we're youth-oriented. 20:49 So if you're over a certain age, 40 or beyond. Oh, let's face it, I haven't seen 40 in a minute. Yeah, me either. And look at us, we're thriving. There we go. The voiceover industry is definitely very inclusive. It's getting more diverse all the time. Like when I was producing commercials, you most definitely had to sound a certain way, be of a certain demographic, and now we're hearing all sorts of wonderful, diverse voices. I still think there's room for us to include more voices that are definitely over 40. I'm still hearing people on the air where I'm like, "You don't sound old enough to tell me about retirement or having a baby." 21:27 - Anne (Host) You sound like a kid. I always try to tell people I start with the product, because I feel like companies are going to promote their products to the demographic they can sell to. 21:38 So it starts there, right? So what sort of a product would you sell to a demographic of females over 40 or females over 50? And I feel like that's where it starts. I feel like the younger sounding. I think it's because the company is trying to expand their demographic to make more sales. I think that's where it starts anyways, because I'm always saying, "Well, the trend right now is a little bit towards more millennial, and that's just the way it is." But I feel like there are certain products that a millennial does not sound realistic. 22:04 - Jennifer (Host) Talking about like Depends, right, or retirement or certain financial instruments or mortgages or things where it's like wouldn't you have to be a little older to be getting? An elder millennial, at least to talk about that. 22:17 - Anne (Host) Go you elder millennials. It's hard to believe. I know that in automotive that was a big thing because with Uber and bosses out there, if you study like it's not hard to study, like demographics and marketing, right? I mean during the pandemic nobody was buying cars and younger people were not buying cars because they were really reliant on Uber and Lyft and the rideshare stuff. 22:38 And so car companies started really marketing hard towards younger people and that changes who they hire right to do their voiceovers, and so I think it's something, bosses, that you need to really like spend a few minutes every day studying the market that you want to sell into. Really, it's not hard, it's Google. 22:57 - Jennifer (Host) Yeah, it's iSpot, Google. And. 23:00 - Anne (Host) Google says that honestly, like you can just type in, like, you know, demographic, automotive demographics or, you know, trends, it's easy to find that out and that can help inform you educationally what you might be auditioning for, how you would respond to an audition, right? What is the company? 23:18 - Jennifer (Host) Who are they targeting their sales to, or who you're, if you're doing direct marketing, which I think every voice actor should be doing, if you're directly marketing yourself to a client. It's like, do you vibe with that client? Are you appropriate for that client? So that's basically how I'm represented. I have talent agents across the country and it's very clear to me that my reps are very good about knowing what my wheelhouse is. So I do get a lot of healthcare, insurance, tech, things like that—healthcare, insurance, tech, things like that, because that's who I vocally appeal to. 23:53 It makes sense, and women have an enormous buying power because we make most of the household buying decisions in most households, and so, even though I still think the guys are doing about 60% of the commercial voiceover work, we're at 40%, so we're catching up, but I think companies are starting to realize that women's voices are appropriate for their products and they want to market to us. So I think we're doing better all the time. So, yeah, there's a lot of content out there. 24:22 - Anne (Host) So I would say that, with all our wisdom, with all your wisdom—with our collective wisdom, with all our—no, with your wisdom. What would be your best tip for people that are just starting out today? Because the industry has evolved over the years and it has definitely changed. So today, if somebody's interested in pursuing voice acting, what do you say to? 24:41 - Jennifer (Host) Them? Brand spanking new, I'd say, and I know people are like, "But you all are coaches, so of course you're going to say this," but I would say this even if I didn't coach it: it is a skill set. And so I think you've got to start with good training, and I tell my students this all the time: Get involved in the voiceover community, get your squad together, get an accountability group, a voiceover workout group. You and I were just at the Nava Gala. Is it Gala or Gala? 25:07 - Anne (Host) Gala. 25:09 - Jennifer (Host) I think Gala. 25:09 - Anne (Host) Gala sounds more elegant. 25:11 - Jennifer (Host) Nava Gala. 25:12 - Anne (Host) We're the Nava Gala. 25:13 - Jennifer (Host) And it's just, it's a constant reminder that when we're so isolated and working on our own, if we don't have community around us, this job is hard. It is. I love the voiceover community so much, and so we have a community around us. We're learning things, we're sharing things, and so I always suggest to people, they're like, "Oh, I don't know what to do. How do I help myself in this career?" I'm like, "Well, get good training and get involved in the community so that you're constantly learning from your peers." Or at least, because we're working by ourselves, it can feel a little lonely and isolating. 25:47 - Anne (Host) Get some VO pals and get lifted up and listen to podcasts like the VO Boss podcast. 25:52 - Jennifer (Host) Yes, please. Listen to VO Boss, listen to VO Boss, guys. I've been doing this for eight years now. 25:59 - Anne (Host) Oh my gosh, it seems so forever. Eight years, amazing, every week. 26:03 - Jennifer (Host) I love it. Oh, my goodness. 26:04 - Anne (Host) Wow. 26:16 - Jennifer (Host) So if bosses want to find out more about you, where can they find out more about you? 26:18 - Anne (Host) I'm a busy kitty on the Instagram at Sims, my website, Sims. I'm busy there too, so, yeah, awesome, come see me. Well, Jennifer, it has been so much fun. I think we could probably talk for another hour or hours. 26:27 - Jennifer (Host) It would be a delight, but I know you're booked and busy, so we'll get on to other things. 26:31 - Anne (Host) But I thank you so much for spending your morning with me and bosses, make sure you look up Jen. Can I call you Jen? Jen? 26:40 - Jennifer (Host) Yeah, go by Jen. Look up Jen. I want to say Jennifer. Jen. 26:42 - Anne (Host) Check out Jen's website and check her out on her socials. Jen, check out Jen's website and check her out on her socials. Yes, please, bosses. 26:49 - Jennifer (Host) Yes, absolutely. 26:56 - Anne (Host) Thanks again, I'm going to give a great big shout out to our sponsor, IPDTL.

Send us a textI was reading "Born of This Land" by Chung Ju-Yung, the founder of Hyundai, and one passage stopped me, causing me to whip out my legal pad and really think it through. “When a small idea, the size of a grain of rice, is implanted in my mind, I nurture it until it grows into a major project I can visualize in my head.”That's the key. Most people dig up their seed(s) too early. They let circumstances, rejection, or bad news convince them it's not possible.But if you're blessed with a thought, plant it. Protect it. Nurture it. Visualize it. And don't sabotage it with your own words, actions, or habits (nor anyone else's words, actions, or habits.) This episode serves as a reminder to stop giving your energy to doubt and start directing it toward what you say you want. If people tell you you're crazy, you're probably on the right track.Support the show
El número 18 de “nuestra” revista CEROaCIEN que dedica el BMW M3 E30, el primero, un verdadero deportivo muy “humano”. La revista le dedica casi 80 páginas… ¿Qué os voy a decir? Para mi esta revista sigue siendo una referencia, una fuente fiable y una inspiración. En este número te cuentan como este coche, nacido para la competición, revolucionó el mercado de los deportivos de calle y se convirtió en una nueva referencia que llega hasta nuestros días. Por si hay algún despistado, os recuerdo que CEROaCIEN solo se vende online, ¡no vayas a preguntar por ella en el quiosco! Y también te recuerdo que si eres garajista, tienes condiciones especiales… te lo contamos todo en el texto descriptivo. Y es que hubo un tiempo en que los deportivos eran más “humanos”. Tenían una potencia elevada, pero no exagerada… Eran ligeros, con bastidores muy afinados, se “comunicaban” bien con su conductor y eran muy divertidos de conducir. Y no existían las ayudas electrónicas para “domarlos” y disfrutarlos. ¿Seguro que la necesitaban? Os voy a hablar de este asunto desde un punto de vista diferente.... Antes de que nadie se rasgue las vestiduras: Todo aquello que contribuye a la seguridad, a salvar vidas, nos parece bien. Eso es indiscutible e innegociable. He insinuado que esos deportivos más “humanos” de los años 80 y 90, que algunos ven como potros salvajes y a lo mejor no lo eran tanto, quizás “no necesitaban” ayudas electrónicas. Resulta exagerado decir que “no necesitaban” ayudas electrónicas, pero quizás no lo sea decir tanto que las necesitaban menos… Porque ahora la deportividad no se mide en disfrute de conducción, sino en caballos… gran error. Como siempre “nuestra” revista CEROaCIEN, que patrocina este video, es una fuente de sabiduría. El último número está dedicado al BMW M3, aparecido en 1985, un coche al que le bastó un motor 4 cilindros de 2,3 litros, 16 válvulas y 200 CV para convertirse en un coche deportivo mítico. Eso sí, con solo 1.200 kg ¿Alguien se atreve a decir que este M3 no es deportivo y divertido? Nos venimos al momento presente. Os leo un titular de una página Web, no voy a decir cuál, pero hubo muchas en la misma línea: “El Hyundai Ioniq 5 N de 650 CV la promesa de un deportivo eléctrico”. Un coche que declara 2.200 kg y mide más de 1,6 metros de alto en el que la electrónica no para de inmiscuirse en la conducción… ¿esto es un deportivo? Aquí llega el planteamiento que os citaba: Vamos a imaginarnos que subimos a un elevador al citado BMW M3 y al Este Ioniq… ¿Qué veríamos? La mecánica antes que la electrónica. Hablemos del BMW. Las suspensiones del primer M3 eran una verdadera maravilla, con muy buenas geometrías y unos amortiguadores de máxima calidad, lo que hacía que, pese a su propulsión trasera y ausencia de control de estabilidad electrónico, fuera un coche predecible y muy noble, incluso en mojado. Este BMW M3 lo “sentías” al volante, te “entendías” bien con él enseguida, inspiraba confianza, pero a la vez era un coche muy eficaz y endiabladamente rápido. Y desde luego resultaba muy divertidos de conducir. Los ingenieros no contaban con la ayuda de la electrónica en forma de control de estabilidad y por ello “echaban el resto” en la parte mecánica, con suspensiones de geometría sofisticadas, muy buena puesta a punto, frenos potentes pero modulables y dirección con buen tacto… esas eran sus herramientas. Sin duda un M3 con electrónica sería más seguro… y seguramente la electrónica seria menos “intrusiva” en la conducción, porque solo lo haría en casos limite… por decirlo de alguna manera, sería una “red de seguridad” no un recurso imprescindible. Esto que digo del M3 se puede aplicar a otros muchos coches, por ejemplo, al Honda NSX un “superdeportivo” que tenía solo 270 CV, poco más de 1.250 kg y un chasis y suspensión puesto a punto por el mismísimo Ayrton Senna. Quedaos con este concepto: Chasis muy afinados en los que la electrónica no era una “ayuda” en la conducción, sino una “red de seguridad” para cuando te equivocabas. La electrónica antes que la mecánica. No me voy a cebar con el citado Hyundai, porque muchos coches modernos, SUV y no SUV, chinos y no chinos, recurren al mismo sistema: Suspensiones simplonas asistidas electrónicamente. ¿Para qué complicarse con sofisticadas suspensiones, carísimo amortiguadores y afinadas puestas a punto? Antes las marcas hablaban de los tipos de suspensión y de su geometría… ahora dedican ese espacio a hablar de la conectividad y el info-entretenimiento. Una forma de dar por supuesto que ese coche es endiabladamente aburrido de conducir, por mucho que en recta aceleren como un cohete. Veo en algunos coches modernos el esquema de suspensión y me parece que hay carritos de golf con suspensiones más “curradas”. Y es que en el fondo les da igual a las marcas, porque saben que será la electrónica la que ayude a conducir ese coche. El cambio de paradigma es que los sistemas electrónicos pasan de ser un sistema de seguridad solo para casos extremos, a ser una ayuda “imprescindible”, muy intrusiva y sin la cual, el coche, sería un verdadero peligro. Por supuesto esto sucede en unas marcas más que en otras. Hay marcas que hacen deportivos con buenas suspensiones, sería el caso del BMW, Porsche o Toyota, por citar algunas, que tienen buenos bastidores y buenas ayudas electrónicas. Pero hay otras, y me atrevo a citar a la mayoría de las chinas, que lo fían todo a la electrónica. Veo videos de coches chinos que pasan por baches sin que el coche se mueva un pelo, luego se ve a otro coche, generalmente europeo, dando botes, y al apasionado “influencer” de turno diciendo que los chinos van muy por delante… ¿Han probado esos apasionados “influencer” si en curvas ese coche con unos amortiguadores electrónicos es más progresivo, más seguro, más predecible y más agradable de conducir? Hacer un vídeo sobre eso es más difícil… Conclusión: ¿Por qué no hacéis caso a Chapman? Todos conocéis la célebre frase de “quítame un kilo antes de darme un caballo”. ¿Por qué no le hacemos casos? Los deportivos de ahora son exageradamente potentes, incluso diría que innecesariamente potentes.

In this episode of Tank Talks, Matt Cohen chats with Ryan Gariepy, CTO and Co-Founder of Clearpath Robotics, on how a garage project from four Waterloo grads turned into one of Canada's biggest deep tech exits. Ryan takes us behind the scenes of Clearpath's $600M acquisition by Rockwell Automation and the company's journey from building robots for researchers to dominating the autonomous mobile robot (AMR) space.The conversation covers building during a hardware-unfriendly time, the harsh realities of supply chains, the open-source bet that changed robotics, and what it really feels like to pitch in a room of 50+ Rockwell execs. Ryan also breaks down why humanoid robots are still far off, the evolution of talent in robotics, and how Canada can stay in the game.

Este fin de semana promete ser un festín para los entusiastas del automovilismo, con dos eventos de primer nivel que captarán la atención mundial: el Gran Premio de Canadá de Fórmula 1 y la legendaria carrera de resistencia, las 24 Horas de Le Mans. Tras la reciente e intensa acción del Rally de Italia-Cerdeña, con el Podcast Técnica Fórmula 1 nos preparamos para una de las mejores carreras de la temporada en la Indycar: Bommarito. Análisis del Rally de Cerdeña. En el Rally de Cerdeña, Sébastien Ogier volvió a demostrar su maestría al conseguir una nueva victoria, la segunda consecutiva este año y la quinta en su palmarés en esta exigente prueba. El rally fue "tremendamente duro”, como suele ser habitual, pero también espectacular, como es usual, y se caracterizó por sus habituales cambios de guion, lo que añade un elemento impredecible y emocionante a la competición. Los resultados de la prueba, del super-domingo y de la Power Stage nos dejan claro que el campeonato este año, lejos de lo que pueda parecer, está muy reñido. Rovanperä sigue a la caza y captura del líder del Campeonato, su compañero Evans. Ogier está en un excelente momento de forma y los Hyundai, sobre todo Tänak, no se quedan atrás en competitividad - aunque este fin de semana brilló también, con luz propia, Fourmaux, a pesar de que los resultados lo oculten. Situación poco habitual en la Indycar. En la NTT IndyCar Series, la temporada 2025 ha sorprendido a muchos en el paddock debido a un dominio inusual y concentrado. Alex Palou de Chip Ganassi Racing y Kyle Kirkwood de Andretti Global han combinado sus esfuerzos para ganar cada una de las siete primeras carreras de la temporada. Desde que A.J. Foyt ganó las siete primeras carreras de la temporada de 1964 (hace 61 años), solo una temporada ha presentado una racha similar con tan pocos pilotos dominantes. En 2006, Sebastien Bourdais ganó las primeras cuatro carreras de la temporada de la Champ Car World Series, y AJ Allmendinger se llevó las tres siguientes. En términos de dominio de dos hombres, esta es la única comparación en el último medio siglo con lo que estamos presenciando este año. Afortunadamente, la era moderna de este deporte se ha caracterizado por una paridad excepcional. Desde 2008, solo en la temporada de 2009 no hubo al menos cuatro pilotos ganadores en las siete primeras carreras. Es más, en tres ocasiones, incluyendo la más reciente en 2021, la IndyCar tuvo siete ganadores diferentes en esas siete primeras carreras, con nombres como Palou, Colton Herta, Scott Dixon, Pato O'Ward, Rinus VeeKay, Helio Castroneves y Marcus Ericsson subiendo a lo más alto del podio. La paridad de esta temporada se manifiesta en la diversidad de pilotos que han terminado en la segunda posición, con seis pilotos diferentes ocupando ese puesto. Palou es uno de ellos, lo que en parte explica por qué tiene una ventaja de 90 puntos sobre O'Ward de Arrow McLaren, y de 102 sobre Kirkwood. Han pasado dos décadas desde que un piloto tenía una ventaja tan considerable en este punto de la temporada, y eso, unido a la paridad de resultados en la segunda posición, nos da idea de la excelencia de este piloto. La carrera de este fin de semana es la Bommarito Automotive Group 500, circuito situado a pocos kilómetros al este de St. Louis, en la ciudad de Madison (Illinois). Se disputará bajo los focos y estaremos esperando ver qué nos ofrece, después el desastre de Detroit, Alex Palou.

Watch this interview on YouTube Full transcript — It's easy to see every glass as half-empty in today's world, says Virat Khullar, head of marketing for Hyundai India. But focusing on the negative will imperil your leadership, while choosing optimism will help you structure things better. "Perpetual optimism for me is a force multiplier," he says. "You will motivate people around you. You will gather the right teams, you will list down things that will make you ultimately achieve the objective." Today on Building Better CMOs — recorded live at MMA's Impact India event near New Delhi — Khullar and MMA Global CEO Greg Stuart talk about the importance of understanding consumer behavior through ethnographic research; the challenges and opportunities in the Indian marketing landscape; and the surprisingly significant role daughters play in car purchase decisions. They also discuss Hyundai's full-funnel marketing strategy and how AI is transforming creative production and personalization.

“Whoever runs your schedule is the most important person in your world as Leader. You need time to think, time to study and time to get the things done you came to leadership to do. Lose control of the schedule and you will fail.” That is a quote from former UK Prime Minister Tony Blair. And it strikes at the heart of mastering time management. Today's episode explores why your calendar is your most important productivity tool.

A podcast to answer all your questions about productivity, time management, self-development, and goal planning. My name is Carl Pullein, and I am your host of this show. Whoever controls your calendar controls you. They can (and often will) destroy your plans for the day, prevent you from doing your most important work and be the reason you fail in your career goals. If you are a leader, you will likely have plans for your team. In order to implement those plans and move them to completion, you will need time. It's up to you to find that time. Top leaders understand this. They are very strict with their calendars. Nobody but themselves has control of it. And, probably the most important factor of all, they have the confidence to cancel appointments if those appointments do not align with their weekly or daily strategic plan. And yes, it's a confidence thing. Nobody, not even your boss, really has control over your time. You always have the option to negotiate an appointment or say no. In this week's episode, I will share some ideas you can use to get control of your calendar and have the confidence to negotiate appointments and/or say no. So, let me hand you over to the Mystery Podcast Voice for this week's question. This week's question comes from Karen. Karen asks, Hi Carl, I lead a team of sixteen people and am struggling to get my work done because my boss and team are always demanding meetings with me. Do you have any tips on protecting time for important work when you don't have control of your calendar? Hi Karen, thank you for your question. This can appear to be a difficult change to make. Particularly if your team and bosses have become conditioned to you being available whenever they need you. One of most powerful lessons I learned in my early career was from the so—called “my office door is always open” concept. For those of you not familiar with this concept, it began in the late 80s or early 90s (possibly earlier). This was where bosses used to tell their employees my office door is always open. You can come and talk to me at anytime. Nice concept. It gave the impression that your boss was approachable. Yet in reality, it was not really a practical way to operate. It meant that bosses were constantly being interrupted—well, those that we not scary, anyway, The two most productive bosses I had in my early career did follow this policy, yet with one addition. That was to tell us that when their door was closed they were not to be disturbed. One of those bosses, would close his door every day around 2 pm. He would then use that time to get his most important work done. David, had a secretary, who would hold his calls too. If you needed David between two and four, you had to go through his secretary, Michaela and Michaela protected David's time ruthlessly. Yet, for the other times in the day, David was available. He'd walk around the office from time to time asking if we were okay. He made himself available. What happened, was if we needed David for anything, we knew we had to catch him before 2 pm or wait until after 4 pm. I don't recall anyone complaining. The Managing Partner of the firm respected it. And so did David's clients—he was a partner in the law firm I worked at. The key to this working was David's consistency. His team, bosses and clients all knew that David would not be available between two and four. Since then, every productive person I have met, has operated something very similar. They have periods of time in the day where they are not accessible. In that time they are doing their most important work. That period of time is generally at the same time each day. I remember, once being on a training course and the instructor, told us she would be available at any time after 11:00 am if we had any questions. That's it. A simple sentence. “Available at anytime after 11:00 am”. I don't recall any one of us on that training course ever trying to contact her before 11:00 am. Now, it might not be possible for you to cut yourself off from the outside world at the same time each day—although we all do this when we are sleeping and the world doesn't end, does it? A lot of this depends on the job you do. I've mentioned before in this podcast the best salesperson I've ever worked with, Claire. Claire would never be available between 9:00 and 10:30 am. It was during this time she was on the phones prospecting and following up customers. That one strategy was the difference between her and every other salesperson in that company. She outsold her nearest colleague two to one most months. We worked a nine hour day in that sales job, and Claire was unavailable for just ninety minutes. She was in charge of her diary. That still left her with seven-and-a-half hours where she was available. So, Karen, the place to begin is to ask yourself how much time do you need each day to stay on top of your work? Given that a managerial role is largely about communicating with a team and bosses, you will likely need to be available most of your working day. Yet, you will still have some individual work to do. So, how much time do you need to complete that work each week? You will only be able to work with averages. You will not be able to be specific about how much time you need each week. You're human. Sometimes we are on fire and can plough through a lot of work. Other days, we're tired and anything we do is sluggish and slow. By working with averages, you're still getting work done and when you are on fire you can catch up. For instance, on average, I need around 14 hours a week to create my content. This means each day I protect two hours for content creation where nobody can interrupt me. I then have an extra hour or so in the afternoons I keep flexible for finishing off any work. I allow no more than twenty one hours of meetings each week. 90% of the time that is more than enough for the meetings and coaching sessions I have each week. I know if I allow more than 21 hours, the additional admin cost and lost time for critical work will mean I have to work late nights and Saturday just to catch up. Not something I am prepared to do. Earlier, I alluded to “negotiating” appointments. Imagine you're in the market to buy a Rolls Royce car. (I said imagine). If you call the Rolls Royce dealership, you're going to have to negotiate a day and time. The “sales process” for buying a Rolls Royce is not your typical process. It's an experience. You're not just buying a typical car. These days, you're buying a unique bespoke car. The salesperson you talk with will need time to go through all the panelling options, Exterior colours and interior seat fabrics, and even the type of material you want your dashboard made from. The person you speak with when making your appointment, will negotiate a time to visit the showroom. That's part of the experience. Now if you were in the market to buy a Ford, Toyota, Hyundai or VW, and call to make an appointment, you can name your day and time. The salespeople will very likely accept your first day and time. Now which experience would leave you feeling special? If you think about your readiness to accept any appointment at any time, what does that say about you? Negotiating your appointments elevates your status in the mind of the person wishing to make an appointment with you. The harder it is to get an appointment with you, the more likely you will have a favourable outcome. It's the “you must be important if it's difficult to make an appointment with you”. Try getting an appointment with Tim Cook, Sundar Pichai or Satya Nadala. It's not that they don't do appointments, it's just they restrict the number of meetings they are available for each day and the meetings they do attend must count. So, if you protect 9:30 to 11:00 am each morning, if someone wants to have a meeting with you during that time, you would say could we meet at 11:30 am instead? 9 times out of 10 your suggested time will be accepted. If not, the person wanting to meet you will likely suggest an alternative time. If you cannot find a suitable time, then you will have to use your protected time. But with this strategy, it will be very rare that you need to do that. I promise you, if you do this a few times, your confidence will rapidly improve and you will find that your focus time blocks will be protected. The challenge we all face today is we feel we must be available at all times for whoever wants to communicate with us. If it's not Teams or Zooms calls, it's instant messages and email. The trick is to become less available. Be like the Rolls Royce salesperson. Make getting an appointment with you part of the experience. If it's a little harder to get an appointment with you, the person you're meeting is going to be much more open to finding a solution with you there and then, instead of scheduling another meeting with you to “sort the details out”. Ask yourself, what the worst that could happen if you “negotiate” with the person wanting to meet with you? The worst is they refuse your suggested time and insist you meet them at their preferred time. At that point you can accept. Yet, I can promise you, the majority of people you negotiate times with will accept your time. The time they chose was completely random anyway. No matter who they are, your boss, your most important customer or whatever, they will thank you for taking the initiative and suggesting a time. I will end with a recent example of this. I am in the process of changing my car as the lease on my current one is expiring in September. We called the dealership to arrange a test drive in a car I was interested in, and the sales manager informed us that this week they were fully booked up, but they had an opening on Thursday or Friday afternoon next week. I was both impressed and relieved. Impressed because he did not jump at the chance and suggest we come down that afternoon or tomorrow. I had a sense of scarcity. Relieved because he took the decision for making the appointment out of our hands. We arranged 1pm the following Thursday and when we arrived, the car was on the forecourt ready and waiting for us. A very impressive experience. So, there you go, Karen. Don't be afraid to negotiate your appointments and meetings. Build confidence in negotiating interruptions from your team and protect sufficient time for getting your core work done. Thank you for your question and and thank you to you too. It just remains for me to wish you all a very very productive week.

Investi dans un contexte politique tendu, le nouveau président sud-coréen Lee Jae-myung hérite d'un pays en pleine tourmente. Entre crise économique, tensions commerciales internationales et difficultés démographiques, les chantiers prioritaires ne manquent pas. Décryptage. L'élection de Lee Jae-myung intervient au terme de plusieurs semaines de crise politique profonde, provoquée par la destitution de l'ancien président Yoon Suk-yeol. Ce dernier avait tenté sans succès d'imposer la loi martiale, plongeant le pays dans une instabilité institutionnelle majeure. Sur le plan économique, les effets se font déjà sentir. Le PIB sud-coréen s'est contracté de 0,2 % au premier trimestre 2025, une première depuis la pandémie de Covid-19. Le won a perdu 14 % de sa valeur face au dollar et les investisseurs étrangers ont fui massivement, retirant plus de sept milliards de dollars du pays. Autant de signaux alarmants auxquels le nouveau président doit rapidement répondre.À lire aussiCorée du Sud: une crise politique aux accents économiquesUne stratégie industrielle sous pressionPour soutenir l'économie, un plan de relance de 45 000 milliards de wons (soit 2,8 % du PIB) a été lancé par le gouvernement intérimaire. Il vise en priorité les petites et moyennes entreprises exportatrices, un pilier de la croissance sud-coréenne. En effet, selon le Fonds monétaire international, plus de la moitié de la richesse nationale repose sur les exportations. Mais ce modèle, longtemps porté par les géants industriels tels que Samsung, Hyundai ou LG, montre aujourd'hui ses limites. La guerre commerciale relancée par l'administration Trump, notamment avec de nouvelles taxes sur les semi-conducteurs (qui représentaient une exportation sur cinq en 2024), pourrait coûter jusqu'à 2,3 points de PIB à la Corée du Sud cette année. Face au découplage entre la Chine et les États-Unis, Lee Jae-myung pourrait accélérer la diversification des partenariats économiques du pays, y compris vers le Japon.À lire aussiCorée du Sud: le nouveau président Lee Jae-myung prête serment et veut «panser les plaies» avec le NordLe défi démographique : une urgence silencieuseAu-delà de l'économie immédiate, Lee Jae-myung devra affronter une autre menace à long terme : le vieillissement accéléré de la population. Le taux de fécondité sud-coréen est tombé à 0,75 enfant par femme, l'un des plus bas au monde. Si cette tendance se maintient, la population active pourrait diminuer de moitié d'ici 2070, compromettant le financement du système de retraite et la capacité de production du pays. C'est donc à la croisée des chemins que se trouve le nouveau président. Restaurer la confiance des citoyens comme des investisseurs, rééquilibrer le modèle économique, tout en assurant une meilleure cohésion sociale, voilà le triple défi qui l'attend. L'avenir de la Corée du Sud en dépend.À lire aussiCorée du Sud: de l'usine à la présidence, l'ascension de Lee Jae-myung

You see it on the news everywhere. President Trump has acquired almost $7 trillion in investment commitments from around the world. The reason: We put tariffs in place to give us the advantage to attract it. In the next 4 years, we'll get trillions dumped into our economy. Big companies are going to move their manufacturing arms back to the States. So how does this affect you? You have to go micro. For example, Hyundai is reported to be building plants in Louisiana. If I were you I'd use ChatGPT to help you learn the best way to set up businesses around where these manufacturing plants are going up. They're going to attract 10,000+ people to come and work at these companies. This means, more houses. More hotels. More restaurants and retail locations. More services will be needed like plumbers, electricians, HVAC.......... The list goes on. You don't need a business coach or mentor to help you build this. Spend $20 a month and have ChatGPT show you the road to riches and how to set up your business. It's as simple as that. There's trillions coming..... You only need a sliver.

Ever wondered what car you should buy for your teen driver? The latest US News and World Report rankings have just been released, and they're packed with surprises that might change how you approach this important decision.During our conversation with Zach Doell from US News, we uncovered the fascinating dominance of Hyundai in the 2025 Best Cars for Teens rankings. With six models making the list across both new and used categories, the Korean automaker has clearly mastered the delicate balance of safety, affordability, and reliability that parents prioritize when shopping for their teens.The rankings revealed that today's entry-level vehicles offer far more than their modest price tags suggest. Take the Kia Soul, starting at just $20,000 with advanced safety features that were luxury exclusives just a decade ago. As Zach explained, "Basic has changed." Today's affordable models come standard with potentially life-saving technology like automatic emergency braking and forward collision warning, along with teen-friendly features like Apple CarPlay that keep attention focused on the road rather than on phones.We explored the compelling case for both new and certified pre-owned vehicles, with Zach highlighting how favorable financing terms on new cars can sometimes offset their higher initial cost. Meanwhile, gently used vehicles coming off lease can offer substantial savings while still providing most modern safety features.Beyond car shopping, we took a virtual road trip to Port Aransas with Marrs, exploring this perfect family beach destination located on Mustang Island.

The Unnamed Automotive Podcast tackles a pair of uncommon vehicles this week. The show starts with Benjamin's review of the 2025 Hyundai Santa Cruz XRT model, which emphasizes a more rugged and tough approach to compact trucking. Benjamin explains how it compares to the recently reviewed 2025 Ford Maverick, and whether Hyundai is capable of building a truck that works for North American needs. Then Sami chimes in with his review of the 2025 Nissan Ariya, which offers a lot of the same features and technologies found on other EVs on the market. Our hosts ask what makes the Ariya special in this segment, and struggle to come up with a definitive answer, despite Nissan's past leadership in the EV space. Thanks for listening!
Are SUVs like the 2025 Hyundai Tucson XRT and Acura RDX really meant to go off road? That's a question we will answer this week as we discuss both vehicles after thoroughly road testing them. Cohost Chris Teague test-drove the refreshed 2025 Acura RDX, a compact luxury SUV with updated styling, a sharper grille, a more functional cabin, and upgraded tech, including a wide-screen 10.2-inch display. The RDX is powered by a 272-horsepower turbocharged 2.0-liter four-cylinder engine paired with a 10-speed automatic transmission. Available Super Handling All-Wheel Drive and a suite of standard safety features complete the package. The specs are impressive, but does the RDX also have a “feature” that might turn you off? While Chris was at the wheel of the Acura, Host Jack Nerad put the (semi-)rugged 2025 Hyundai Tucson XRT AWD to the test. This new variant adds off-road-inspired styling, 19-inch black alloy wheels, and 8.3 inches of ground clearance. Under the hood, a 2.5-liter four-cylinder engine is paired with Hyundai's HTRAC all-wheel-drive system. Inside, the Tucson XRT features a comfortable, tech-forward cabin with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. The question is off-roader or soft-roader? In this week's news segment, we cover the debut of the 2026 Toyota RAV4, redesigned for its sixth generation with hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains only. New trims include the sporty GR SPORT and off-road-ready Woodland edition. We also examine Congress's recent vote to block California's plan to phase out gas-only car sales by 2035, breaking down what this means for national emissions policy and the EV market. The industry hails the change, but some environments cry foul. In other news, Tesla's sales in Europe have fallen nearly 50% in April, despite overall EV market growth. Based on that, we explore possible causes, including public perceptions of CEO Elon Musk and the realities of the European auto market, which has welcomed (kinda) the Chinese. Finally, Volvo's announcement of 3,000 job cuts signals broader challenges amid a slowing EV market and global trade uncertainties. Our special guest this week is Anthony Watkins, Toyota product expert, who joins us to discuss the 2026 Toyota BZ, the brand's heavily revised electric crossover. Jack Nerad drove the new version, and we'll have a special report. We'll also answer our listener question of the week: Connor from Davenport, Iowa, asks, “Should I buy or lease my next car? I drive about 8 to 9,000 miles a year — would a lease make sense?” We offer our take. Have a question for the show? Email us anytime at editor@drivingtoday.com.

Conflict is inevitable in every relationship but how we handle it can make or break our marriage. In today's episode, I'm joined by Gabe & Rebekah Lyons as we dive into what it means to fight well. Not married? They also share some advice for those who are dating and include their “red flags” for when to seek counseling (yes, it's a good idea to do BEFORE you get married) and when to walk away. Through real stories (like how they got into a fight an hour before this interview!) and kind encouragement, you'll learn ways to navigate disagreements with grace, humility and love. Whether you're dating, newly married or decades in, this conversation offers practical tools and insight to help turn conflict into connection - and draw you closer to your spouse and to God.

In today's episode, I sit down with author Justin Whitmel Earley. Justin's career began as a missionary in China until becoming a business lawyer. Along the way, he faced a tough mental health crisis that changed everything for him. What came out of that season? A totally different way of living. One that was shaped by intentional habits and vulnerability. We talk about the two spiritual habits he leans on the most, how being vulnerable can strengthen our friendships, and what it looks like to build deep connections with our kids (even in the midst of chaos). He also shares about his book The Big Mess - a reminder that the messiness of life, especially with our kids, can actually be a gift.
