That Car Show

Los Angeles Auto Show Preview

Today, on That Car Show, it’s our annual Los Angeles Auto Show preview, this year with the show’s VP of Marketing, David Fortin. Southern California is arguably the epicenter of American car culture, which makes the LA Auto Show one of the most important automotive shows in the country. More than at perhaps any other show, automakers use LA as a sounding board, with audience feedback helping shape future product plans. David takes us behind the scenes, previews what’s coming, and shares a few things worth getting excited about. His own journey to the LA Auto Show is an interesting one, too, making for a fun conversation. All roads lead to the LA Auto Show, which this year runs November 20th through the 29th. It’s the LA Auto Show’s David Fortin. And it’s That Car Show. https://laautoshow.com/ @laautoshow @thatcarshowpodcast @lindseymjesch @d9nnyp @ryanbahrke

Stellantis' Scott Krugger, Head of North America Design

Today on That Car Show, it’s Scott Krugger, Head of Design for North America at Stellantis. From growing up obsessed with cars to penning the iconic fifth-generation Viper, we get into the gravity of guiding the design of some of America’s most legendary brands—including Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, and RAM—and the pride that comes with seeing your creations perform as intended, even if that’s sometimes on YouTube. Often, conversations with folks from the front office can be a little procedural. That certainly wasn’t the case with Scott. He’s the real deal, and we really enjoyed talking with him. It’s Scott Krugger. And it’s That Car Show. @thatcarshowpodcast @lindseymjesch @ryanbahrke @d9nnyp

Car and Driver's Csaba Csere

Today on That Car Show, it’s Car and Driver’s Csaba Csere. If you grew up like we did, voraciously devouring each new issue of Car and Driver and living vicariously through the writing of Csaba and his legendary editorial staff, this one’s for you. We go way back: to the first road tests of icons like the Ferrari F40 and Porsche 959; to oddball stuff like the Vector W8 and the Popemobile; and to the state of the industry today. Along the way, we talk about some of the unforgettable personalities who shaped the magazine—and the car world—people like David E. Davis and Brock Yates. Csaba was there for all of it, and remains one of the most influential automotive journalists of his generation. This is an old-school, audio-only episode, recorded in Ryan’s garage. But it’s a good one. In fact, it’s the conversation Ryan’s wanted to have since he was, well… twelve. It’s Csaba Csere. And it’s That Car Show.

Lamborghini CMO Federico Foschini

It’s That Car Show, and welcome to a very special bonus episode. We’re joined by Federico Foschini, Chief Marketing & Sales Officer of Lamborghini, for a conversation recorded right in the middle of 60 Lamborghini Miuras and their owners and admirers at Pebble Beach. Federico is not only the most Italian man we’ve ever met, he also heads Lamborghini Polo Storica, the marque’s highly regarded heritage division dedicated to preserving and celebrating Lamborghini’s legendary classics. We’re talking Lamborghini, the Miura, Polo Storica, and what it takes to preserve some of the world’s most iconic cars. A big thank-you to Jordan Russel at Extension PR for making the connection. One quick heads-up: because we recorded this surrounded by 60 Miuras at Pebble Beach last Sunday, there’s some background noise. But honestly, we wouldn’t have it any other way. Enjoy 12 minutes with Lamborghini’s Federico Foschini. It's That Car Show. This is an audio-only episode.
