Volkswagen dubchat
A talk show in a Volkswagen.
Yes, that’s right, a talk show in a VW. The fact is, this is the only known talk show that takes place entirely inside a VW. Rather than bore you with information on VW vehicle models in traditional video formats, VW wanted to liven things up a bit. So there will be two co-hosts reporting directly from inside a VW car model. This talk show is simply known as “Dubchat” and you can watch the video series from VW’s Intelligent Crash Response System to Passat features at web.vw.com.
The guests
For this offbeat talk show to work the way Dubchat does, it needs to have the right hosts. These hosts must have the wit and personality to match this kind of unique setting. Enter Pete and Jimmy. The main host is Pete and he has been a VW enthusiast since 1979, which was the first year he took a ride in his parents’ 1979 Beetle. Pete’s partner / co-host is Jimmy, who started driving VW in high school. Together these two are the host team for Dubchat, where they generally open the doors of VW during the show as a welcome to VW engineers, designers and consumers.
