Author: Everyday Driver October 21, 2025 Duration: 1:29:23
For Topic Tuesday, the guys create self-imposed rules for themselves, and choose fun cars for families at each price point up to $100K. They debate fun commute choices for Josh in MI, who wants something new and is having trouble letting go of his current car. Then, John in SD is mulling over a truck & trailer for towing the track car, but wonders if it’s the right choice. Social media questions ask about Subaru’s concepts that are an ongoing tease, and what’s the best metric to quantify the performance of a car if you haven’t driven it?

You’re probably familiar with Paul and Todd from their car review films, but here they step out from behind the camera and settle in for a different kind of conversation. Everyday Driver Car Debate is where those two distinct perspectives really come to life, often clashing in the best possible way. Instead of polished video segments, this podcast captures their unfiltered back-and-forth as they tackle questions from listeners trying to navigate the confusing world of car buying. They dig into the practical realities of ownership, from budget sedans to weekend toys, always aiming to help you find the right fit for your garage and your life. Naturally, disagreement is a core ingredient-one might champion driving engagement while the other argues for daily comfort, giving you a balanced look at every option. You’ll also get a peek behind the scenes of their filmmaking process and hear their casual takes on wider industry news. It feels less like a formal show and more like eavesdropping on a lasting conversation between two knowledgeable-and stubborn-friends. The result is a surprisingly useful and consistently entertaining listen for anyone who thinks about cars more than they’d like to admit.
