Summary
This week's podcast sees Robert joined by Fully Charged's CEO Dan Caesar to discuss the fascinating and rapid changes taking place in the global automotive industries. Picking up where his recent blog left off (see link below) and covering all the current dominant, emerging and potentially dying car brands, Dan poses questions like "Are the legacy OEMs already powerless to compete?", "Is 2023 the start of a new manufacturing race?", "Will Chinese EVs be coming sooner than we think?" and "How many luxury SUV customers can there really be?" - BMW, Audi, and Mercedes appear to believe there are lots!
We also get lots of updates about who'll be at this year's Fully Charged LIVE events! Read Dan's blog here:

| 0:38.4 | All together not bad. I recorded this podcast very recently with Dan Caesar, who is CEO of the |
| 0:44.7 | fully charged show and we discussed numerous topics, most of which we recorded, particularly about |
| 0:52.8 | changes in the automotive industry, which I think are rapidly gaining momentum and are |
| 0:58.4 | pretty globally important and we're seeing huge changes in the automotive space and also in |
| 1:08.8 | the energy space in general, but specifically at the moment in the automotive space. So that is why |

| 1:43.7 | you took it with you, but I wasn't the science museum yesterday. |
| 1:49.4 | Is where we first met. It is. I don't expect you to remember that exact time, |
| 1:57.2 | but I remember being there. I remember being there. |
| 1:59.5 | Yeah, that's when we started. Well, I volunteered to come and help you. |
