Episode 10: We Live On The Wrong Side Of The Lithium Curtain [With Guest Kevin Williams]

Hello! In this episode of Tran Girlismo, the girls talk about Stellantis... positively??? That's right, Stellantis unveiled six new concepts to demonstrate their styling and future product plans, and they actually kinda go. All following images via Stellantis. Alfa Romeo Cuorerosso: Peugeot RCZ Vision: Peugeot E-T16: Opel STX: Fiat Multiplay: DS F3ver: Citroen 2CV: The girls then discuss the fact that they hate the white supremacist "concept" ""car"" and will not be discussing it as a serious thing. Please stop asking the girls what they think of it. Then, Jordan plays another video game (Project Motor Racing) and learns that sometimes even if nostalgia is bad, old stuff actually is just kinda better when new stuff is ass. As always, our opening theme is off Stella Spazzatura's Horse Tranquilizer Simulator and our fantastic editor (who is available to edit your show, too!) is the lovely Alex/Harmful Park! VICTORIA NOTE: Shirt/sticker update for people who have ordered! Some of them have been mailed, some of them are still in my living room; my wife and I are about halfway through the process. I apologize again for the delay, we have had a rough few weeks in my home and I am behind on basically all aspects of my life. These will be mailed out (although I have no idea in what order; we basically just pick whatever shirts are closest and send those), and I will not be handling merch in the future now that I have a full-time day job, but that obviously happened between me offering pre-orders and me actually getting the merch.

Hello! In this episode of Tran Girlismo, the girls start off with some fun stuff. The car meet that Mosé Auto and Drive Deviant put together was a success, and Vicki had fun meeting some of y'all there! Next, W O R L D R A L L Y C H A M P I O N S H I P R E T U R N S ! ! ! After nearly four decades, America is finally enough of a pariah state once more for FIA to bestow us with a WRC event. Next, the girls dive into the hot new electric car of the week, the Jaguar Type 01. It's... it's fine. It feels like it's been one million years since the ad campaign for it launched, though. Finally, more oil, as ol' Donnie throws Ukraine further under the bus for a completely trivial amount of diesel before the midterms. Vicki wrote the notes for this one. Did you think you were going to escape The Oil? As always, our opening theme is off Stella Spazzatura's Horse Tranquilizer Simulator and our fantastic editor (who is available to edit your show, too!) is the lovely Alex/Harmful Park!

Hello and welcome to another episode of Tran Girlismo! On this episode, Jordan rounds up the racing season as it comes to its conclusion. Then, the girls watch the new Grand Tour; as you can predict, one of them is a downer about it. (Spoilers though: Francis rocks.) The two of them discuss the new BMW 3 Series (in gas, yet again), and then Jordan fills us in on her latest pleasure cruise exploring the Allegheny Mountains. AS A REMINDER FOR SEATTLE PEEPS: If you want to attend a really cool queer car meet and say hi to Victoria, come swing on by Mose Auto (700 S Orchard St, Seattle, WA 98108) from 2-6 PM in Seattle's Georgetown neighborhood, where she'll be tabling for her day job at TRACTION!

Hello! On this episode of Grim Oil Rants (apologies/thanks to our wonderful friend of the show Nathaniel for stealing this bit from him), the girls just want to have fun, but they can't. Degrowth Don is back at it again, so it's time for an (admittedly more limited than last weeks') analysis of the diesel market. Then, the feds decide that since fuel prices are so low it's a great time to abolish CAFE in a way that Victoria thinks might actually make the entire market balloon more in size, and NHTSA admits will cost us more in fuel. Great. Finally, Jordan plays a really good video game that can never happen again because Electronic Arts is too busy bonesawing small studios they purchase to make Infinite Money with Zero Employees. Victoria especially would like to extend her genuine apologies for another oil-based downer episode but wow she is feelin' it this week. The uplifting, fun episode is the bonus this time. Sorry y'all. As always, our opening theme is off Stella Spazzatura's Horse Tranquilizer Simulator and our fantastic editor who keeps us out of prison is Alex aka Harmful Park, who is looking for work and you should hire to work on your podcast too!
