‘The Art of Racing in the Rain’ reviewed, Pebble Beach and Dream Cruise previews

On this episode of the Autoweek Podcast, host Rory Carroll joins Graham Kozak, Wesley Wren and Jake Lingeman to preview two of the biggest car events in the country that take place on the same weekend: Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance and the Woodward Dream Cruise. Before the guys tackle the previews, Autoweek’s Mark Vaughn calls in to review the polarizing film “The Art of Racing in the Rain.” It might be a surprise, but the team reviews the film in roughly 25 minutes. The shortest movie review in Autoweek Podcast history revolves around the film’s protagonist. Namely, with the fact that it’s a dog, which Mark kindly reminds you that he loves. After the movie, Mark gives a quick guide to Pebble Beach and talks about what he’s excited about. Wrapping the show, the team discusses the significance of this year’s Woodward Dream Cruise and reminds you how you can participate in the cruise with Autoweek (for free). If you haven’t had a chance to check out Dream Cruise, stay put until the end and take Graham’s words for gospel. Tune in below, on Spotify or anywhere podcasts are played.
