This week we're bringing you the automotive news from a leftist perspective, starting with an update on the state of our project cars. Then, a story about cops being bastards (42:15), Conner fawns all over the new Nissan Z (52:21), and the latest fuckups of Tesla and Elon Musk (1:41). With many tangents in which we disagree on car styling, hate on Texas generally and Whataburger in particular, and discuss the most whimsical way to shave facial hair.
