Hosted by Trevor Long, EFTM-Tech, Cars and Lifestyle is a conversation that lives at the intersection of our digital and physical worlds. This isn't just a gadget review show; it's a deep dive into how the technology we use, the vehicles we drive, and the products we adopt shape our daily experiences and culture.

The discussion is grounded and practical, often driven by listener input through calls and messages, making complex topics accessible and immediately relevant. Each episode feels like a chat with a well-informed friend who cuts through the hype, whether examining the latest automotive tech, a new smart home ecosystem, or a cultural shift driven by a leisure product.
