In this first episode of Garage Talk Unwrapped - The Podcast, Ben and Vicky take a practical, trade-focused look at electric vehicle (EV) charging in the UK. We unpack why some drivers — including us — haven’t yet switched, examine real-world EV charging costs and accessibility, and explain why the UK lags behind other European countries.
Guests and highlights:
Matt Cleevely on why he moved into EV work, recorded at the Schaeffler REPXPERT Conference 2024.
Matthew Teudor on his company EVDC and a peer-to-peer approach to charging that could disrupt the UK market.
Andy Savva (The Garage Inspector) shared a frank view on whether garages should prioritise EVs today, recorded at the Schaeffler REPXPERT Conference 2024.
What you’ll learn:
Real charging cost examples and how accessibility affects EV adoption in the UK.
How major players are embracing EV maintenance and what that means for independent garages.
Practical implications for technicians and business owners in the aftermarket.

In this short introductory episode, Vicky and Ben say hello and share what Garage Talk Unwrapped – The Podcast is all about.
We talk about why we’ve launched the show, how it connects with our YouTube channel, and what listeners can expect in future episodes — from trade news and product updates to exclusive interviews, tech deep dives, and practical workshop advice.
To kick things off, we also look back at a few of our favourite moments from Garage Talk Unwrapped on YouTube — including celebrity interviews, inspiring voices from the industry, and clips that made us laugh (and sometimes left us speechless!).
Our first full episode drops on 9 September, covering EV charging made simple. New episodes will then release every two weeks on Tuesdays.
