flatmacsurfMy Fave EV News Site Has A PodcastIt’s great to hear the voices of a great EV news website.
-
skeeteronThis podcast needs a new name “Tesla Podcast”I like the hosts. But get tired of the 90% Tesla topic of discussion. Once in awhile other EV’s get covered. Meh
-
EdtheChefExcellent coverage of all types and makes of EVs!Excellent coverage of all types and makes of EVs! Great source for vehicle reviews when shopping for a new vehicle.

Legendary614UnbiasedOnly unbiased source of EV news
-
TurnathoughtVery even handedVery fair and unbiased reviews and discussions of all EVs. These guys are early adopters of Tesla vehicles and still own Tesla vehicles and would love to see Tesla succeed in helping to move the EV industry forward. Entertaining, honest, and inciteful
-
kmick8Stay in the know about EVsThis very informative podcast does a weekly summary of EV news. There are so many new models coming out, I don’t know how someone could stay on top of it without this podcast. Their adorations and criticisms are well-reasoned and honest.
-
tsheehanpmExcellent Fair EV PodcastIt’s refreshing to hear a podcast about EVs that isn’t run by Elon sycophants or hosts that want to avoid the uncomfortable Tesla realities.
-
Mr. Tesla 85DBest electric vehicle podcastSolid and objective insight provided into what’s happening in the world of electric vehicles. Tells it as it is concerning Tesla and Elon - neither a hater nor a lover. A must listen for people wanting reliable and dispassionate information about electric vehicles.

INinerInteresting and entertainingGreat show. Funny, entertaining and informative. I’ve been listening to them for years.
-
tezjwidLong-time favorite EV podcastThese two guys are good at pointing out the good AND the bad in the industry. They also have a ton of in-depth knowledge and insight.

Mr. Nilo***UNSUBSRCIBE***Time to find a better Tesla podcast. Need to stick to facts & how EVs enrich lives.Generalizes a few instances to “THE SKY IS FALLING!!!” One viral video of a coal roller & they state all coal rollers align with Tesla. Or there’s fires by vandals & they state all US Tesla dealerships are on fire. They say Elon/Trump/Bondi blames Democrats without any evidence but since it’s under investigation there might be proof but not released to the public. Don’t get me started when they bring up J6. These guys are sipping the Blue/Mass Media Kool-Aid. I listen to podcasts so I don’t have to listen to the news.

_Lee_RAnother great show. Informative and honest.Informative

Little bear54Great informationI’ve been enjoying this podcast for a long time. Thank you for all the interesting information.

djejnycGreat reportingUpdate: Still my favorite EV podcast but I’m listening more to others because Electrek’s Tesla focus is getting boring. Other companies are doing way more interesting and forward thinking stuff. Less Elon antics/arguing and more about what’s next from everybody else! Get some insider knowledge about what’s next from Kia/MB/BMW/Ford! Still, it’s the best EV podcast out there. Original review: This is a recording of their weekly live Friday broadcast, very conversational, really enjoy listening in every week!
-
dashboardpwsElectrek is a mustI’ve listened for several years and have built a routine around each new episode. Fred and Seth are rational voices every week and I respect their honesty and integrity.
-
Russ0756zLoves hating on TeslaThis podcast used to deliver news in an unbiased fashion. Seems they have developed a serious dislike of Elon Musk which clearly impacts their reporting. Apparently Fred believes because he previously owned a few shares of Tesla it gives him license to tilt almost all reporting of Tesla negative. Seth love to cut Rivian slack and beat up on Tesla at every turn. They need to keep their bias in check if they want to consider themselves ‘journalists’.
-
Lance419Too politicalThis show has become too focused on politics instead of electric cars. I understand people have political views but this show used to be a lot better before they got too obsessed with Musk and Trump.
-
EV Fan BoyTurned into a Tesla Bashing ShowI used to really enjoy this podcast but recently it feels like the whole show is talking about how bad Tesla is doing and projecting how bad they will likely keep doing. I had hoped it would be an objective view on EV’a but it is clear the show is heavily politicized now and not worth listening to.
-
PrincessReadsALotALotGreat InformationI enjoy listening to the podcast - the hosts provide insightful and timely information about EV topics. The episodes feel like a conversation with a knowledgeable friend. I highly recommend listening if you’re interested in the topics surrounding EVs.
-
Dadtastic1Q&A for Podcastgreat Idea to have people post questions here for the Podcast. However I'm pretty sure one can only leave one review per podcast. So thus Limiting one to a single question. You really need a way on your website to submit questions for the podcast.
-
DSabbatiniToo bitter, moving onListened for years but has become unbearable lately. I get that you’re disappointed with Elon, upset about Tesla governance and pessimistic about FSD, but let it go. Talk less about Tesla if you need to but maintain a focus on the electric energy transition. No need to spend time on DOGE or American politicians.
-
Peter (Wombat Model 3)Stop the biasFollowed it basically from the first episode. Got now unbearable since Fred divested from Tesla - please come back to EVs and being balanced… no connection whatsoever between Elon’s speech at inauguration with EVs or solar energy. “Battery included” and “Out of spec” are now the go-to podcasts for me. Sad.
-
Blizzard1s2dGreat show, full of factual information about the car industryUsually good and a fun talk about fun cars on the cutting edge. BUT! Way too much extremely boring Tesla stuff, Elon Musk is dead to me after sicing internet mobs on so many reporters, scientists, and ordinary trans people. Especially now that he bought the government for a mob boss rubber-stamping extreme white-nationalist fundamentalist-Christian attacks on our American Constitution all day long.
-
Bee Me 90211LONG TIME SUBSCRIBER MUST SAY GOODBYESadly this podcast which I have been listening to since 2017 has become painful to listen to. Fred has become obsessed in every podcast with everything and anything he can find fault with Elon Musk and Tesla. Do they have their faults? Of course. Being a pioneer one helping to save the planet is not easy. Seth’s consistent responses of I don’t know, maybe, could be, we will see is dull at best. Good bye. 🥲
-
BrucemcdouToo RamblingI appreciate any and all podcasts that cover news and information honestly and in an even-handed way. However, there’s no reason for the information they cover to take as long as they do. The pauses, the digressions, and the side jokes, distract and frankly waste your listeners time. Listen to EV News daily for how to cover everything you do in 1/3 or 1/4 of the time. I’m sure I’m not the only person who would like to listen to your podcast but get frustrated with the chaff.
-
mblaze74Comprehensive CoverageGreat up to date EV information and industry insights
-
israndyContinues to be the best EV podcastThis is where I get all my electric vehicle news, I would say it’s fair and balanced, but Fox News usurped that term to mean “alternative facts”
-
Good point davidToo badLooks like you’ve gone full Elon Derangement. Tesla is a disaster and everything is on fire because Elon started tweeting? Get rid of your bias and get back to the facts.
-
steeler nut 66Being overtly biasedExtreme anti-Tesla reporting is getting old. 100% of things talked about regarding Tesla are negative now and Fred finishes every negative comment about Tessa with a slight giggle. Showing how much he personally wishes Tesla to fail. He even insinuated they would fail, and then when a commenter pointed that out he tried to deny it. Yet he truly insinuated Tesla likely to fail in the coming years. I personally love all electric cars and the electric industry and that’s what I started listening 4-5 years ago. But this past year I’ll I hear is how much Fred dislikes Elon and wishes an entire company ill will because of one man who he disagrees politically with.
-
BooftarAnti EV EV podcastSadly, Has become an anti EV podcast. Hoping they change. Was once a great podcast.
-
HaggisTacoBiasIt’s unfortunate that you turned the show into a session of pontificating on American politics. Please understand that a major majority of the country are not misogynist, as you implied in the episode I heard. Please have some respect for the other considerations that drive people’s decisions. Don’t be so reductive, it’s embarrassing. Overall, local quality.
-
Bike Hop2Disappointment after many years of listeningDon’t waste your time. Disappointed in how these two hosts focus episode after episode on Elon. Every episode is about Elon and not electric vehicles and other products. The opinions of Elon has affected the hosts ability to run a productive and exciting show. This used to be a great podcast for many years. Now this is simply a political driven show. There are many better podcasts on EVs. This is not news.
-
nrooseThanksThank you for bringing a lot of rationality and personal experience to the topic. But please increase the voice audio level. All other podcasts and videos and driving directions have voices that are considerably louder than yours.
-
EyeTuneyCutting edge EV news…This duo seems to have an inside track on what is and what’s coming in the EV universe. Pretty casual presentation, but they do serious research. If you’re into EV‘s, Electrek is the place to click.
-
E dogsterTo politicalObviously u hate Elon. Keep political views out of content please
-
Marc-SanJoseFantastic podcast on EVsI am a regular listener and very much appreciate the expertise that Fred and Seth provide. They cover a wide range of EV topics and always shed light with an unbiased, well researched approach. I highly recommend this show. Kudos!
-
Greg PolenGreatVery informational
-
evgroveGreat show but keep politics outI do enjoy the show and listen to it frequently but I would prefer the few occasions you talk about it do yourself a favor and keep on topic. Latest episode they specifically say they are not going to talk about politics but a few minutes later the criticisms began. Disappointing they chose to slam politicians as opposed to focusing on how their policies impact the EV market.
-
My-Nickname-Was-Taken!MissionGreatly appreciate the frank and honest discussion regarding the divergence of Musk and the mission. Would relish regular segments devoted to emerging energy density tech and who is incorporating into their production (eg, Rivian’s 46xx cell).
-
CapnSuperstarElon Derangement SyndromeCame for news about the EV industry. Saddened by the fact that all these guys ever seem to talk about is their hatred for Elon Musk. Shouldn’t there be more to discuss?
-
BanodyneObjective Not FanboysWhat i like best is that they’re EV enthusiasts but they call out when a product or person is not good.
-
JLM-BBGreat OG EV podcastA solid weekly recap of EV news. Generally Tesla-heavy up front, but you can skip through the Musky info if that’s not your bag.
-
PitchspeederUsed to be goodNow it is just anti Elon garbage. How about you get back to reporting on EVs, and leave your politics out of the show Fred. I’m sorry he hurt you so badly.
-
JBH MDGood content but significant technical glitchesDownloads on Apple days late, sometimes wrong episodes, surprising from a Mac affiliated company
-
DragosMTesla hatersUsed to be my to go EV show, now I cannot stand them as all they do they criticize the only successful American electric car company!
-
Aslam AzadTesla bad. Rivian good.My title pretty much sums up this podcast. Fred acts like he’s being a saint by occasionally saying something nice about Tesla or Elon. In reality it’s just his way of excusing himself for unfairly criticizing them to no end later. As for Seth, he’ll spare no opportunity to bash the company while giving Rivian the benefit of the doubt while they continue to lose billions. Tesla is not perfect but neither is any other company. Elon is not perfect. Neither is any other human being. But Fred and Seth expect them to be or else here comes the bashing. FSD V12 is amazing and instead of conceding that they were wrong, they continue to claim that it’s garbage. Ridiculous.
-
Pdxer2011BalancedThis weekly covers a range of EV issues with a substantial covers of Tesla. I especially appreciate their takes on Elon maneuvers and industry information. Fresh every week. Keep up the good work.
-
Myke222 4Liked the electric part, not the politics negativityUsed to like this show when it was positive. The hosts do not seem tolerant of folks in the middle anymore and complain way too much about twitter and PR. Frequently say ‘not a good look’
-
donsullivanToo much Tesla biasToo much Tesla bias
-
Dooree-mapOnly general EV news, not in-depth EV tech, Elon hatredThe show only provides EV news. The hosts don’t have enough engineering background to lead in-depth conversations. The hosts have enough general knowledge and some ok logic. Recently the hosts showed a lot of prejudice conversations against Elon. Their Elon’s hatred is obvious but they claims they are not. All of the negative conversations attached with Elon and Tesla helped to get more people join the conversations/ arguments which increases internet traffic for the show and benefits the show. This is not a good way to do business in my opinion. It’s similar to the way majority of media is doing right now.
