Seth spent this past weekend traveling all over the Northeast, driving from event to event in his hybrid vehicle. It made him wonder: if he were driving a 100% electric car, how would he have gotten where he needed to go?

We're kicking off a two-part Techstream mini-series about the state of electric vehicles (EVs). We talk about utility companies incentivizing EV owners to get chargers installed, EVs as a “lifestyle choice,” and what's being done to quell range anxiety.

Here's where you, the listener, come in. Are electric vehicles better than gas vehicles? Do your research and hit us up on Twitter @Techstream. (Keep politics out of it; let's focus on science.)

Plus! Yankees vs. Astros talk (and cheating in Major League Baseball); Seth meets a real, live listener in the flesh; and we offer the first-ever Techstream POAP! Request yours at http://www.shellypalmer.com/poap
