Description: • U.S. Electric Vehicle Debate

James breaks down the ongoing American EV culture wars, why they feel stuck, and how much is political theatre vs. real-world data.

We're off this week for the holidays so we're playing our Patreon bonus episode from a month ago because we think it has some great stories in it.

• EV Market Growth

The hosts dig into the latest numbers showing EVs gaining traction globally—and why the economic case keeps getting harder to ignore.

• Stockpiling Critical Minerals

A look at why countries are hoarding minerals like lithium and nickel, what it means for future supply chains, and who's preparing well (and who isn't).

• Rivian's Smart Bike Helmet

Brian brings up Rivian's unexpected new gadget—a "smart" bike helmet—and the hosts try to figure out why an EV truck company is branching out.

• Corn's Environmental Impact

A discussion about why corn farming is causing more climate trouble than most people think, including fertilizer emissions and long-term soil issues.

• Solutions for Sustainable Agriculture

The hosts explore ideas and innovations that reduce nitrous-oxide emissions, improve soil health, and make food systems more sustainable.

• The World's Largest Sand Battery

Wrapping up with the Finnish energy-storage breakthrough that stores heat in giant silos of sand—cheap, renewable, and surprisingly effective.
