Listen "TWC Podcast #102: Going Full Prepper"
Episode Synopsis
We go full prepper this week sorting through the good, the bad, and the ugly of gasoline vs. electricity when the power goes out for an extended period of time. That leads to the next logical conversation: Would you want to drive an EV during a zombie apocalypse? We also discuss underground gravity energy storage mines, an anti EV bill in Wyoming, and more!Subscribe to the podcast on Apple Podcasts, Google Podcasts, Amazon Music, Audible, Spotify, Stitcher, PocketCasts, iHeartRadio, and more – or use your favorite podcast application.SHOW NOTESIs gas better than electricity in a “bug out” scenario? https://www.thewattcar.com/home/gasoline-vs-electricity-whats-better-in-a-bug-out-scenario ICE or EV for a zombie apocalypse? https://www.thewattcar.com/home/why-id-escape-in-an-ev-during-a-zombie-apocalypse Underground Gravity Energy Storage mines: https://interestingengineering.com/innovation/scientists-converting-abandoned-mines-batteries Wyoming introduces anti EV bill: https://cowboystatedaily.com/2023/01/13/take-that-california-wyoming-legislators-draft-resolution-banning-electric-vehicles-by-2035/ Wyoming energy production: https://www.engadget.com/wyoming-wants-to-phase-out-sales-of-new-e-vs-by-2035-200704042.html …And the anti-EV resolution dies: https://cowboystatedaily.com/2023/01/16/well-that-was-quick-resolution-to-ban-electric-vehicles-in-wyoming-dies-in-committee/ Tesla’s chief designer says Model S incremental design changes are “timeless”: https://www.teslarati.com/tesla-constantly-improving-model-s/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XpTyo2PQq6E Tom Moloughney proves Tyler Hoover wrong: https://insideevs.com/reviews/628475/f150-lightning-winter-range-test/ This week’s hosts: Phil Royle and Edward A.
