Electrify Podcast

It has been more than a decade now since the EVs started hitting roads across the U.S., yet so many people remain misinformed - driving conversations about e-mobility that just aren't true. Matt and Jo explore why these myths persists, as well as Rivian's latest updates, and Joe Biden's announcement that Tesla Superchargers will be open to all - and why that should come with an asterisk. 

Many of us use wireless charging pads for our smartphones, but for EVs? It seems a far flung, futuristic idea - but WAVE has been bringing wireless charging to e-mobility for over a decade. Jo sits down with WAVE CEO Aaron Gillmore to talk efficiency, use cases, and how wireless charging is changing commercial-scale electric vehicles. 

There is so much happening in the world of e-mobility the past few weeks, from wheels falling off of Subarus and Toyotas, to the raw display of EV power at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, and Jo's own personal experience with battery packs and Chicago potholes.

Matt and Jo recap ElectrifyExpo Long Beach, talk charging, and get caught up on Tesla.
