Rubin Ervin, TV Personality, Air Touring Owner, All Around Fun Guy-Encore

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2488396/fan_mail/new] Hello, Lucid fans! I am delighted to welcome Rubin Ervin as my guest on this week’s Lucid Driver podcast. All Lucid Airs are absolutely beautiful. I’m biased of course but I think it is the prettiest sedan out there. Other than colors, glass versus aluminum roof and wheels, there is little to distinguish one from another. Just a couple of weeks ago we had on the owner of a Lucid Air Sapphire. To most people eyes a Sapphire it looks very much like mine except for the pretty Sapphire Blue color. The Sapphire is $250,000 and mine is much less than half that. Nevertheless, the similarity between Lucid Air models didn’t stop Rubin from doing his best to make his Lucid especially eye-popping and not just on the exterior. He told me, “Shortly after its delivery, I customized the wheels, wrapped the exterior, and installed subwoofers. It is now very much a dream car to me.” I told Rubin, my wife doesn’t know it yet, but I am getting his rims for my car!   RUBIN ERVIN is the short guy with the big voice! He doubles as the Announcer and the Warm-up guy for the #1 game show in the country, Family Feud. Rubin started his career having the Slime of his life as a child actor for Nickelodeon Studios and later became a show host for their live shows. As his career progressed, he soon became the life of the party, MC’ing and DJ’ing shows for Walt Disney World, Universal Studios, Nickelodeon Recreation, and many more. As the “Warm-Up Guy” for many shows such as The Bachelor, The Bachelorette, Little Big Shots, 500 Questions, Password, Judge Steve Harvey, and many more, Rubin gets the crowd pumped and ready to have a fantastic time no matter what.   You can also hear Rubin’s voice as the announcer for many shows, including Family Feud, Showtime at the Apollo, The Kelly Clarkson Show, and America’s Got Talent.

Heath Cox, 2022 Lucid Air Grand Touring; 2025 Gravity Dream Edition; Creator, LucidTracker

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2488396/fan_mail/new] Hello, Lucid fans! I am delighted to welcome Heath Cox as my guest on this week’s Lucid Driver podcast. Heath is an early adopter of a couple of Lucid Motors vehicles, one of the purchasers of the inaugural 2022 Lucid Air Grand Touring, and then last year picking up the Gravity Dream Edition. Wow, Heath is a role model before we even get a chance to chat!   Heath told me, “I've been a Lucid owner since March 2022, starting with an Air Grand Touring as an early adopter; I made the jump to a Gravity Dream Edition in June 2025, again jumping in early on a brand-new platform. Out of that ownership experience, I built LucidTracker (https://lucidtracker.app [https://lucidtracker.app/]), a free community platform built by an owner, for owners. The free tier is really about bringing Lucid owners together, you can track OTA software rollouts, participate in community leaderboards, and submit software bugs that others can upvote if they're seeing the same thing, which helps surface what's actually impacting the community. Owners who opt in can securely sync their vehicle data from Lucid to share across the community (anonymously if they prefer) and get a high-level view of their own charging sessions and vehicle status. I'm also getting ready to launch LucidTracker+, a paid tier for owners who want the deep-dive stuff, full trip history with routes and efficiency tracking, detailed charge session analytics, live GPS streaming, and faster sync intervals. I'd can certainty talk about what it's been like being an early adopter on two different Lucid platforms and how that journey led me to build something for the broader Lucid community.” Are you a Lucid owner with a compelling story to share, contact me at LucidDriverPodcast@gmail.com We'd love to hear from EV/Automotive enthusiasts with stories relevant to Lucid fans at LucidDriverPodcast@gmail.com Like my Lucid Driver podcast Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575927028097 [https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575927028097] Check out my world-leading podcast about ocean cruising, The Joy of Cruising Podcast https://www.thejoyofcruisingpodcast.com/ [https://www.thejoyofcruisingpodcast.com/]

Blaine Mathieu, My Journey with Lucid Motors & a 2025 Lucid Air Grand Touring EV-Encore

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2488396/fan_mail/new] Hello, Lucid fans! One year ago, I hosted my first guest on Lucid Driver! To celebrate the anniversary of this milestone, here is an encore of that episode. Thank Blaine for being the first. This is Paul. I am delighted to welcome Blaine Mathieu. I am honored a tech CEO who happens to be the owner of one of the world’s beautiful vehicles agreed to be my guest on only the second episode of Lucid Driver.    From Blaine’s Blog: “Let's get something straight: I am not a professional car reviewer. (If you are looking for that, check out Dan Neil [https://www.wsj.com/news/author/dan-neil] at the WSJ - he's amazing.) I am not even an amateur car reviewer - I have never published a word about cars in my life. What I am is the CEO [https://www.linkedin.com/in/bmathieu/] of a Silicon Valley startup [https://www.pratexo.com/] that loves vehicles. My wife is [https://www.linkedin.com/in/wendy-mathieu/] the Head of Product at a different company. Together we have owned every manner of car over the last 20 years including a Nissan 370Z convertible, a 1958 Triumph TR3A (pictured here on the website), a huge Buick Enclave, a plug-in Toyota Prius Prime, a bright green Range Rover Evoque 2-door SUV, and a bunch of things in between. The 2025 Lucid Air Grand Touring is our first fully-electric car, and I thought it would be fun to share our real-world experiences and impressions over the next few years. Enjoy!” Are you a Lucid owner with a compelling story to share, contact me at LucidDriverPodcast@gmail.com We'd love to hear from EV/Automotive enthusiasts with stories relevant to Lucid fans at LucidDriverPodcast@gmail.com Like my Lucid Driver podcast Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575927028097 [https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575927028097] Check out my world-leading podcast about ocean cruising, The Joy of Cruising Podcast https://www.thejoyofcruisingpodcast.com/ [https://www.thejoyofcruisingpodcast.com/]

Lawrence Richardson, 2025 Lucid Air Grand Touring

Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2488396/fan_mail/new] Hello, Lucid fans! I am delighted to welcome Lawrence Richardson as my guest on this week’s Lucid Driver podcast. Lawrence is a recent purchaser of a 2025 Lucid Air Grand Touring.   Lawrence told me, “I am retired after having worked for thirty something years with a Fortune 500 mining/manufacturing aluminum company. I had assignments in Suriname, South America for 5 years, and Guinea, West Africa for 4 years, and various assignments in several US cities. I am currently living in Atlanta, GA. I spend my time now volunteering, golfing, and gardening/landscaping around the house.   My EV experience started in 2014. Coming from a BMW 6 series, I was not in the market for another car. I had heard about Tesla, and was curious, so decided to take a test drive for the hell of it. Big mistake. Figured out a way to afford it and purchased Tesla Model S a few months later. Shortly thereafter became a 2 Tesla household.  No gas vehicles or tools since 2015. Moved from Tesla to Mercedes Benz EQS 450+ (current), Nissan Leaf (very briefly), and Rivian R1T (current). Veteran EV road tripper, even before supercharger network widely available. Early member of EVHybrid Noire.” Are you a Lucid owner with a compelling story to share, contact me at LucidDriverPodcast@gmail.com We'd love to hear from EV/Automotive enthusiasts with stories relevant to Lucid fans at LucidDriverPodcast@gmail.com Like my Lucid Driver podcast Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575927028097 [https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61575927028097] Check out my world-leading podcast about ocean cruising, The Joy of Cruising Podcast https://www.thejoyofcruisingpodcast.com/ [https://www.thejoyofcruisingpodcast.com/]
