Why Your Car’s AC Does More Than Cool You Down | That Don't Sound Right

In this episode of That Don't Sound Right, hosts Peter and Cecil uncover the surprising science behind automotive air conditioning. Starting with a listener question about should you run the A/C with the heat in a car. It’s not just about keeping you cool—modern AC systems actually condition the air by removing moisture, helping improve comfort and even windshield visibility.

Along the way, they share entertaining stories from past episodes, including a callback to episode #36 The Great Loop, the iconic boating route circling the eastern U.S., and the curious case of a man navigating it in a jon boat. You’ll hear reflections on how air conditioning has evolved, its impact on vehicle performance, and why running the AC in winter might actually be a good idea.

With their trademark mix of humor, insight, and a dash of nostalgia for the pre-Google days of debate, Peter and Cecil deliver another episode where things that don’t sound right... turn out to make perfect sense.
