Hey all, it's podcast time again!
This week we talk with Colum Wood, VP of content at VerticalScope, our parent company, about a study run by sibling site AutoGuide. This study shows about 10 percent of EV owners have been left stranded -- but not for the reasons you probably think.
Matthew Guy and I discuss TVs for your garage -- and the surprising reason why he has one. We also discuss Austin Dillon's jerk move at the Cook Out 400.
You can find us at TTAC.com, and wherever you get your podcasts. You can also Click here to find us. We thank Colum and Matthew for stopping by, and Matt Posky for editing. Most of all, we thank you for listening!

Tim Healey grew up around the auto-parts business and has always had a love for cars — his parents joke his first word was “‘Vette”. Despite this, he wanted to pursue a career in sports writing but he ended up falling semi-accidentally into the automotive-journalism industry, first at Consumer Guide Automotive and later at Web2Carz.com. He also worked as an industry analyst at Mintel Group and freelanced for About.com, CarFax, Vehix.com, High Gear Media, Torque News, FutureCar.com, Cars.com, among others, and of course Vertical Scope sites such as AutoGuide.com, Off-Road.com, and HybridCars.com. He’s an urbanite and as such, doesn’t need a daily driver, but if he had one, it would be compact, sporty, and have a manual transmission.
