RoAb #52 - The 'Distracted' Episode
Sunday, October 3, 2010 at 11:49AM ;)
With dear leader Craig Cole unavailable this week, our very own Jefferson Ross of Autobytel Autotropolis grabs the helm to steer RoundAbout, #52, the “Distracted Episode,” through stormy seas. We’ve got a whole mess of inattentive news bites to share, ranging from a story about a hungry driver that plowed into a crowded bus stop to chatter about ANOTHER Volvo safety demonstration that went horribly awry. Later in the show we pick our favorite cars from the Paris Motor Show, take a couple of your calls and literally get in touch with nature in our “Highway Hearsay” segment. There’s at lot of meat on this one, so quickly hit the play button before you get distracted and update your Facebook status or start watching reruns of “Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman” on Hulu.
