Steph talks about Trump confusing NISSAN with NIPPON as he was announcing a new deal to sell U.S. steel to the Japanese company Nippon. She also discusses the formal goodbye from Trump to Elon Musk as the White House silently released a perfectly timed insider leak to the NY Times about Elon's heavy drug use. Elon was presented with a large gold key by Trump, a thank you gift for his service overseeing the destruction of America's most dependable and important agencies.

The humble manual transmission is quietly disappearing from American roads, and most drivers haven't even noticed. Nissan recently halted production of manual transmission Versa for the US market, effectively ending America's last five-speed manual econobox. With fewer than 5% of buyers choosing the stick shift option and automatic transmissions now delivering superior fuel economy (35 mpg vs 30 mpg), the writing is on the wall for the beloved manual gearbox.We explore the technological evolution that's made this possible, from the inefficient two-speed "slush-o-matics" of the 1960s to today's sophisticated multi-speed automatics that shift faster than any human could. The manufacturing complexities of offering both transmission types create additional challenges for automakers already struggling with integration of modern safety features and hybrid powertrains.Our personal experiences with manual transmissions spark a nostalgic conversation about learning to drive stick and the unique connection it creates between car and driver. While enthusiasts may mourn this passing era, the efficiency and convenience of modern automatics simply make more sense for most drivers and manufacturers.Beyond the transmission talk, we cover significant automotive industry news including Nissan's financial struggles (they're planning to cut 20,000 jobs and may sell their global headquarters), GM's $888 million investment shifting from EV production to traditional engines, and Tesla's growing inventory of unsold Cybertrucks being stored in suburban shopping center parking lots.Curious about how we learned to drive stick or want to share your own manual transmission memories? Join the conversation on our social channels and let us know if you'll miss the manual or if you've already embraced the automatic revolution.Be sure to subscribe for more In Wheel Time Car Talk!The Lupe' Tortilla RestaurantsLupe Tortilla in Katy, Texas Gulf Coast Auto ShieldPaint protection, tint, and more!Disclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.

Dans l'automobile, les têtes tombent les unes après les autres, un patron sur cinq a quitté son poste dans l'industrie automobile en un an. Ce n'est pas une statistique de start up en crise, c'est le bilan des plus grands groupes automobiles mondiaux. Le secteur vit une transformation d'une brutalité rare à l'extérieur : pression géopolitique avec Trump qui remet des tarifs douaniers à tout va et avec la Chine qui inonde le marché de voiture électrique beaucoup moins chères. Et puis, à l'intérieur, l'industrie se transforme en secteur technologique. Et tout le monde, en tout cas pas tous les PDG, n'ont le mode d'emploi. Stellantis, par exemple, a mis six mois à remplacer son ancien PDG. Les actionnaires ont envisagé à un moment donné de chercher des profils externes, y compris hors automobile. Mais, finalement, c'est un homme du sérail qui a été nommé. Chez Volvo, c'est encore plus clair. On a carrément rappelé l'ancien PDG de 64 ans. Le message subliminal est simple et limpide : dans la tempête, on préfère un vieux loup expérimenté à un jeune innovateur. La priorité, c'est la survie et pas les grandes idées. Le problème, c'est que cette prudence peut vite virer à l'immobilisme. Lynn Calder, la patronne d'Ineos Automotive, l'a dit franchement : si le secteur continue à tourner en vase clos, à refuser des profils venus d'ailleurs, ils courent tout droit vers l'inertie. Et puis, il y a la réalité du terrain. Les ventes dégringolent en Europe et aux Etats-Unis, les marges fondent comme neige au soleil et la compétition est devenue encore plus mondiale que par le passé. Résultat, les conseils d'administration cherchent des profils capables de survivre à un monde où vendre une voiture, ce n'est plus juste une affaire de design ou de moteur, c'est de la stratégie, de la technologie, de la géopolitique, du logiciel embarqué et même un peu de psychologie.

Na Donald Trump z'n Liberation Day was het een en al miserie voor de Amerikaanse beurzen. Maar het meeste pijn werd geleden bij de Magnificent Seven. Wij durfden ze zelfs te degraderen naar Matige Zes (alleen Meta wist de beurskoers op gang te houden). Maar zo blijkt maar weer dat je nooit de hoop moet opgeven. Sinds de dip in april zijn Microsoft, Alphabet, Amazon, Apple, Tesla, Nvidia én Meta de kartrekkers van Wall Street. Ze zijn zelfs goed voor bijna de helft van de stijging van de S&P 500. Waar hebben de zeven beurslievelingetjes die heropleving aan te danken? Dat vertellen we je in deze aflevering. Dan hebben we het ook over een andere groep aandelen die maar de eigen records blijft verbreken. Het ene na het andere land steekt miljarden in de defensie-industrie. Nu is het het Verenigd Koninkrijk dat zes nieuwe munitiefabrieken gaat bouwen, twaalf onderzeeërs gaat kopen en ook nog eens het aantal kernwapens wil uitbreiden. Je hoort natuurlijk ook over het nieuwste gedachtespinsel van Donald Trump. De onderhandelingen tussen de VS en China verliepen maar stroef, dus blaast hij de boel eens opnieuw op. China houdt zich volgens Trump niet aan de afspraken van de tijdelijke deal die in Zwitserland werd gesloten. En China vindt op zijn beurt weer dat de VS dat akkoord schendt. Zit er een strategie achter deze zet van Trump? Wij weten het niet, maar onze gast misschien wel. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
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!

US banana giant Chiquita has laid off around 5,000 workers following a month-long strike as part of nationwide industrial action. Workers are protesting against new social security laws lowering pensions. In 2023, Panama exported $273m of bananas, making it the 13th largest exporter of bananas in the world. What do the layoffs mean for Panama and the wider banana industry?In Africa, the Economic Community of West African States (ECOWAS) celebrates its 50th anniversary amid recent exits from prominent member states.

What's up, everyone! Today we're sharing an episode with Joseph Vellone, the CEO of ChargeScape — a Joint Venture between Ford, Honda, BMW, and Nissan. -----Listen on: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTube | Pocket Casts-----As the grid continues to buckle under the pressure of ever-increasing demand, it's more important than ever to find ways to manage the existing load. However, it's not all bad. One of the main demand drivers might be the core solution to these demand problems—namely, EVs, when paired with smart charging software. You see, all these EVs are essentially backup batteries. Currently, not all are equipped with bi-directional charging, but most new vehicles hitting the roads are. So, not only can a smart charging software, managed by utilities, alleviate demand on the grid, it can also pull energy from the vehicles when the time is right (again, when the hardware capabilities are present). -----Support our Work with a Paid Subscription-----This fundamentally shifts our perspective on vehicles. Instead of a cost center, it could earn you money by purchasing cheap energy, or charging on solar for free, and selling back to the grid at peak demand times. This is the type of utopian future we work towards — and the best part, it's becoming reality in front of us.

BNR Beurs is een beetje een sportprogramma geworden. We doen namelijk verslag van alle transfers. Daar kwam geen einde aan. De belangrijkste is die van Christine Lagarde. Zij zou de gedoodverfde opvolger van Klaus Schwab zijn als baas van het World Economic Forum. Maar daarvoor moet ze wel eerst haar positie als voorzitter van de ECB opgeven. Dat zou niet gebeuren, werd al gezegd. Maar volgens Schwab zelf zijn er toch al gesprekken geweest met haar. Er is zelfs al een woning voor haar geregeld in Zwitserland. Kan de ECB zich maar beter klaarmaken voor de zoektocht naar een opvolger? En wat betekent het voor het beleid van de centrale bank? Die vragen beantwoorden we deze uitzending. Dan hebben we het ook over de andere centrale bankier die opvolging zoekt. Hier in Nederland zelfs. Klaas Knot heeft namelijk nog maar een maand te gaan voor zijn termijn afloopt en hij moet stoppen als baas van De Nederlandsche Bank. Maar het blijkt behoorlijk lastig om vervanging te vinden. En dat leidt tot zorgen bij DNB en in de financiële sector. Verder zijn er nog een hoop andere transfers die wél al zeker zijn. Ook daar brengen we verslag over uit. En we brengen goed nieuws! Want sommige analisten durven eindelijk weer positief naar de toekomst te kijken. De grootste onrust op de beurzen is verleden tijd, zeggen ze. En het ene na het andere bedrijf besluit opeens groots in Bitcoin te investeren. Het mediabedrijf van Trump ging al om, en nu wil ook gamewinkel GameStop opeens honderden miljoenen erin steken. Die bedrijven hebben een loophole gevonden waarmee ze praktisch geld kunnen printen. Maar is dat misschien toch te mooi om waar te zijn?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
Nissan's Murano has been giving Nissan customers another crossover option for over two decades. Since its launch in 2002, the Murano has sat near the top of the brand's pricing strategy. While the Murano has ventured into some strange body styles, with the CrossCabriolet leading the pack, the latest, fourth-generation Murano is back on track -- albeit a track that looks more toward the Infiniti side of Nissan's lineup. This '25 Murano also ditches the popular 3.5-liter V6 and replaces it with the variable compression turbocharged I4 mill. The variable-compression turbocharged engine sends 241 hp and 260 lb-ft of torque through a nine-speed automatic transmission. Those figures are almost exactly flipped from the VQ-powered predecessor. On this episode of Quick Spin, Autoweek Executive Editor Tom Murphy hops behind the wheel of the 2025 Murano and puts it through its paces. Murphy takes you on a guided tour of the fourth-generation Murano and highlights some of his favorite features. Later, Murphy takes you along for a live drive review of the 2025 Nissan Murano. Adding to these segments, Murphy chats with host Wesley Wren about the Murano, how it stacks up against the competition, and more. Closing the show, the pair breaks down what makes the 2025 Nissan Murano special.

House GOP leaders and Republicans from high-tax states appear to be nearing an agreement on state and local tax deductions, as President Trump's giant tax and spending deal inches toward a vote.

In this hard-hitting double-segment breakdown, Tara takes aim at the growing border crisis and exposes how South Carolina may be turning into a sanctuary state by default — thanks to state leaders refusing to follow Florida's lead on immigration enforcement. She covers the brutal Rock Hill double homicide allegedly committed by an illegal immigrant and blasts GOP governors for ignoring Trump's call to deputize state law enforcement. Then, the conversation shifts to the unraveling of the electric vehicle agenda. As sales plummet and major manufacturers like Ford, GM, and Nissan scale back production, hybrids rise as the real consumer favorite. Meanwhile, Elon Musk is pulling back from political donations, and the EV fantasy pushed by Democrats continues to crumble. Tara closes by digging into the shocking news of Joe Biden's stage 4 prostate cancer diagnosis — questioning the timing, lack of transparency, and whether the White House and media are hiding more than just a health issue. Is the president really in charge? Who's been calling the shots? Tara demands answers in this no-nonsense, truth-first commentary.
In a jam-packed broadcast, Tara peels back the curtain on a series of explosive developments the media won't touch. First, she reveals how South Carolina is quietly becoming a de facto sanctuary state — a consequence of Governor McMaster and other Republican leaders refusing to act on Trump's call to deputize local law enforcement as immigration agents. As a result, illegal immigrants are fleeing Florida and bringing violent crime with them, as seen in a horrifying double murder in Rock Hill. Next, Tara digs into the unraveling of the electric vehicle narrative. With plummeting EV demand, massive financial losses for automakers like Ford, and companies like Toyota and Nissan shifting to hybrids, the American public is rejecting the Democrats' green agenda. Even Elon Musk is backing away from political spending after years of trying to push innovation through a broken system. Finally, Tara tackles the biggest red flag of the day: Joe Biden's late-stage cancer diagnosis. With a medical history that doesn't add up, suspicious gaps in testing, and stage 4 cancer suddenly revealed, she questions who's really been running the country — and why the public is just now learning the truth. From Biden's border policies to his hidden health crisis, Tara demands accountability for a government that keeps gaslighting the American people. No spin. No filter. Just the truth.

Will Lizz survive the trip with the sudden onslaught of the terrible twos? At Kelly's house, she's preparing for George's impending birthday. This gives the ladies time to talk about birthday traditions. They discuss which ones they have begun for their kids and some of these ideas you're going to want to start for your kid's next big day! Speaking of advice, Kelly got some great marriage advice from her mother-in-law. If they aren't doing the chores you're asking them to do, put it on a list.

Kelly is preparing for the kids spending a lot of time at home with a pack of half cones, a fairy garden and an uncrustable maker. Meanwhile, Lizz is getting her yard ready with a new weed pulling device she can't stop raving about. Plus, colorful masking tape that will keep your kids entertained for hours and Matty's pajama find. Kelly is getting concerned for Nissan in Industry News.

Christopher Savoie, the founder and CEO of Zapata Computing, has had a fascinating career journey. After beginning as a young programmer working with early computers, he switched gears to immunology and biophysics in Japan and is now founding AI companies. Along the way, he was also involved in creating the foundational technology for Apple Siri, working on early language models embedded in agents to solve complex natural language problems. In this interview with our host, Daniel Bogdanoff, Savoie highlights the evolution of AI into specialized systems. Like an orchestra, small, task-specific models working in ensembles are more effective than large, monolithic ones. He also shares how AI transforms automotive, motorsports, and grid management industries. Savoie recounts his experiences at Nissan with predictive battery analytics and Andretti Autosport, where AI-driven simulations optimize race strategies. Savoy warned about the potential misuse of AI and big data, advocating for ethical considerations, especially around privacy and government control. Despite these challenges, he remains optimistic about AI's potential, expressing a desire for tools to handle complex personal organization tasks, such as multi-modal time and travel management.
