Powering Progress: The Charge of Lithium Mining and the Quest for Electric Vehicle Innovations

Get ready to energize your understanding of the metals that power our lives, as we sit down with Greg Reimer, the trailblazing CEO of Surge Battery Metals. This episode is a treasure trove of insights into the electrifying world of lithium mining – the lifeblood of EV batteries. Greg takes us on exploration of the Nevada North Lithium Project, revealing why this venture is a potential game-changer for U.S. manufacturing. We uncover the complex world of lithium extraction and its pivotal role in powering electric vehicles, discussing the innovative methods Surge Battery Metals employs to extract lithium from clay, and the broader impact these practices have on the industry.

Rev up your curiosity as we shift from minerals to motors in a candid conversation about the future of cars, beginning with a personal tale of anticipating a BMW i4 and a nostalgic look at classic rides. The discussion takes a sharp turn into the shadowed lanes of automotive history, as our new feature ' Konrad's Car Corner' is examining scandals that shook the industry to its core. Hear about the corporate sabotage that targeted the Chrysler Airflow, the legal battles that roadblocked Tucker's visionary car company, and the Ford Pinto's fiery controversy. 

Closing the hood on this episode, we reflect on Nissan's latest crossroads: the possibility of moving Rogue crossover production from the U.S. back to Japan. Join us for this ride through the past, present, and potential of the vehicles we drive and the metals that ignite their journey.
