View all City Cast Austin episodes

Host Nikki DaVaughn sits down with Evil MoPac, the anonymous social media persona masquerading as an Austin highway. We won’t give up their identity, but will give you the inside scoop on their true feelings about the made-in-Austin Cybertrucks, and their creator, Tesla’s Elon Musk, now an Austinite himself. We’d like to thank Tecovas, who makes our favorite Western wear in town, for being our exclusive launch sponsor.
