RoAb #61 - The 'Times They Are A-Changin’' Episode

The times sure are a-changin’, so let your friends at RoundAbout show you the future!  That bastion of tradition and Southern cheer, the Cracker Barrel, is caving in to the relentless advance of technology by installing electric-vehicle chargers at several of its locations across Tennessee.  Iran’s fun-loving President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, is getting with the times by selling his vintage Peugeot sedan to the highest bidder.  State and local governments across the U.S. are jumping on the common-sense bandwagon and installing more and more traffic roundabouts, but many ‘Mericans want nothing to do with these European exports.  Also up for discussion this week in our Blind Spot is the unbelievable story of a 72-year-old man that steals cars on test drives plus we get to a long-overdue installment of Unsolicited Car Advice where we help one of our FAN find the vehicle that’s perfect for them.  We also continue our Holiday Gift Guide to help you buy the perfect presents for the car lovers in your life.  All that and a whole lot more, only on RoundAbout #61, the “Times They Are A-Changin’” episode.

RoAb #21 - The 'Drunk' Episode

Every week like brand-new 21-year-olds we hit up the clubs and dive bars of the internet to celebrate our freedom.  Before blacking out in a stranger’s rose bushes, we might find a few interesting things to talk about, or even a cohesive, Zen-like theme.  On the road to incapacitation we’ll ride in a Sidecar through Manhattan to grab a Long Island Iced Tea.  But we’ll have to watch out for Irish Car Bombs, relations between Black Russians and White Russians have been on the rocks.  If we can dodge the hail of 9 mms and avoid ending up like JFK, we might be able to get some Old Fashioned advice from Three Wise Men.  Thank GOD birthdays – and podcasts – only come once in a Blue Moon.  What starts out like Sex on the Beach, ends like an apocalypse with Four Horsemen.

It's like they say, you only turn 21 once, so join us as we celebrate with a bad decision or two. A New Hampshire woman racks up three DWIs in one week. Australian scientists come up with fabric technology that will resist vomit smell. And, we wake up next to an Iranian diesel and wonder what else we did last night. Plus we've got another installment of AutoGadget and Zach Bowman finally gets back into the press fleet with In the Garage.
