| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome back to another episode of the Pulse podcast, the podcast where we delve into the life and death decade of the automotive industry. |
| 0:14.1 | You are joined, as always, by myself, Imogen Bogle. I am a presenter on the fully charged and everything electric show. |
| 0:20.5 | Or everything electric show under the fully charged and everything electric show, or everything |
| 0:21.1 | electric show under the fully charged umbrella. Come back to that. And Dan Cesar, who is the CEO of |
| 0:28.3 | this illustrious organisation and the founder of the EB UK. Dan, how are you doing? |
| 0:34.7 | I'm really well. I'm actually quite upbeat. I think it's because I've been |
| 0:37.6 | in Australia and I've been reminded that the sun shines. If everyone was listening elsewhere, |
| 0:43.8 | obviously we're based in the UK generally and it has rained every day for I think about |
| 0:48.7 | 70 or 80 days. It has been super depressing winter from that perspective. So, yeah, I had a week in Sydney. |

| 1:28.4 | And it was damp. It was glorious. It had a real Scandine noir kind of vibe. But in doing that |
| 1:34.4 | journey, we found out that there has been 68 days of continuous rain in Wales. And I'm sure |
| 1:42.7 | it's a similar number here in in England and it has been |
| 1:47.3 | it's getting into the soul. Yes it's a life aquatic here it really it's not been it's not been |
| 1:56.8 | the best winter but anyway you know I'm sure spring will be here before long. And, |
| 2:04.1 | you know, as always, we'll try and be upbeat and positive on this podcast. Well, do you know what? |
