Old Cars are Better than New Cars

This episode starts with a drive into the mountains: Autumn light, gold leaves, and cool November air smelling of trees and rain. It was lovely.
But the car I was driving had other ideas.
Somewhere between the mountain bends and motorways, I was fighting the machine! The car kept deciding what was “safe” and what wasn’t.
This one’s about control. About how technology that’s meant to help can end up taking over.
If you’ve ever felt nostalgia for something simple, or argued with your own modern car, this episode is for you..
