SHIFT TALKERS is MotorTrend&#8217;s first debate and discussion series, and is now available on the MotorTrend App, the only subscription streaming service dedicated entirely to the motoring world.<\/p>\n<p>Hosted by Hooniverse co-founder and executive editor Jeff Glucker, SHIFT TALKERS uses videoconference technology to create a virtual roundtable for four panelists as they participate in five rounds of challenges. Each challenge allows the panelists to give their hot takes on car culture tropes and reveals how in tune they are with current automotive trends. Along the way, their arguments are judged by Glucker until a winner is crowned.<\/p><div id=\"morty-179962673\" class=\"morty-content\"><script async src=\"\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-4937602850188786\" crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script><ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block; text-align:center;\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-4937602850188786\" \ndata-ad-slot=\"5227734695\" \ndata-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\ndata-ad-format=\"fluid\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n<script> \n(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); \n<\/script>\n<\/div>\n<p>In each SHIFT TALKERS episode the panelists can collect laps around a virtual track.

A clear winner emerges and takes first place on the podium.
