Step back in time with The Gated Shift to the 1955 Paris Motor Show and the unveiling of a car that would forever change the automotive landscape: the Citroën DS. In this episode, we explore the 'Goddess,' a machine that was so advanced for its time, it seemed to have come from the future. We'll dive deep into its revolutionary hydropneumatic suspension, a system that gave the DS its legendary magic carpet ride and self-leveling capabilities. We'll also examine the aerodynamic design penned by Flaminio Bertoni, the innovative engineering that included front-wheel drive and disc brakes, and the unique features that made the DS a true icon. From its role as a presidential car to its surprising success in rallying, the DS's story is one of innovation, elegance, and enduring appeal. Join us as we celebrate a car that was more than just transportation; it was a revolution on wheels. Subscribe to The Gated Shift for your weekly dose of automotive history and culture!

Boysober
Have you ever wondered what life might be like if you stopped worrying about being wanted, and focused on understanding what you actually want?

She went "boysober," a personal concept that sparked a global movement among women looking to prioritize themselves over men. Now, Hope is looking to expand the ways we explore our relationship to relationships.
