Why do you keep saying cheap china cars? Those junks are 1st not cheap at all, lots of people still can't afford that, 2nd, what else can Uk do, does it have a car industry just to make its own cars, let alone to compete?

[@gautamsvs]

Also UK is okay with Chinese cars and the review is by someone who doesn't even have a licence to drive? Really? Seems like you need to cut the number of episodes you do, you are running out of depth here 😂

Great podcast, as always! However, I feel I need to call this out. In this report, you had a journalist covering cars but he doesn't have a driver's license. In the previous report, the journalist covering pets doesn't own a pet. Seems a bit sloppy considering The Economist's standards.

Anyone else has the impression that the video would have been better showing the footage of the interview in the first segment and not the same cover image?
