By SEMA Editors

"The Smoking Tire" podcast--the weekly 90-minute radio show covering the car industry with behind-the-scenes experiences--recently invited SEMA CEO and President Mike Spagnola to sit down with hosts Matt Farah and Zack Klapman. 

"We had a compelling discussion on all things automotive, from industry trends to the explosion of new market segments, including electric vehicle (EV) technology. We also covered topics like how the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is impacting the car hobby; how SEMA's Garages are helping small businesses build and test new parts that the California Air Resources Board can approve; and how this year's SEMA Show is bigger and better with the addition of new programs like SEMA Fest," Spagnola told SEMA News.

"The Smoking Tire" podcast episode featuring Spagnola is available on YouTube (below) and on all podcast platforms, including Apple and Spotify.
