Episode description

Chace Barber is one of the guys behind Edison Motors, a British Columbia based company which is looking to build realistic trucks which can run on both electricity and diesel fuel, and fill the gap between material reality and the distant Utopia which TechBros keep telling us is almost upon us.

Chace is quite a character and pleasure to listen to, and you will enjoy the story of his career in trucking, and his insights to both the possibilities and limitations of electrifying trucks.
