Automotive Print Is Dead? Ft. Jonathan Wooley of S3 Magazine || Behind The Wheel Podcast

On this podcast Scott and John are joined by Jonathan Wooley of S3 Magazine. Jonathan has been the head editor of S3 since 2006. Konig has been working with Jonathan and S3 for numerous years. Jonathan talks about how S3 has moved away from print as it is becoming a dying industry and less desirable and how S3 has moved to an app in recent years. He mentions some pros and cons of moving away from the more traditional magazine issue model. Do you feel that print still has its place in automotive in 2024?
