On this episode Matt and I are driving TO the Lotus factory IN a Lotus Emira.
We give our take on the cars, events, and cost of Goodwood. Then we discuss the pros and alarming cons of the hale bale safety system.
Then, roundabouts versus stop signs, and a somewhat scientific breakdown of our personal difficulties driving from the right-hand seat.
Lastly we answer Patreon questions regarding: which car we would drive up the Goodwood Hill, why “quick hands” won’t save Mustangs from Cars and Coffee mishaps; the Ineos Grenadier; which UK cars caught our eye; the deal with eggs; which 2+2 delivers a “roadster-like” experience, and more.
Oh, and I (Zack) pronounce Al-peen wrong, despite pronouncing it correctly a month ago. I’ll blame the lack of sleep.

Note: The audio is a little odd because we were recording off of the stage PA system. We had a cable from the board into our gear but for some reason there's odd interference on it. We ran it through a few programs to improve it as much as possible.

Henry Grabar is the author of the fascinating book, "Paved Paradise: How Parking Changed the World". He's going to fill us in on how building cities for cars has influenced the design of homes, buildings, and parking, and how all of it influences how we live.
He also enlightens us on why free parking isn't always the best idea; one reason why rent is so high; how losing parking in front of restaurants can actually help; and what Chicago did very wrong.
