  • 2025 Recap: The FOA Community, Parts, Code, and People that Made it all Happen

    2025 Recap: The FOA Community, Parts, Code, and People that Made it all Happen
    Jan 1 2026
    2025 was a defining year for the Fisker Ocean. What began as a set of hopeful ideas within the Fisker Owners Association has become a lived reality, and seeing it unfold has been remarkable. The FOA community has grown into one of the most dedicated, collaborative, and passionate car communities in the world. In this special FOA 2025 Year-End Recap, the Ocean Currents Podcast is joined by FOA leadership and volunteers to reflect on how a global owner-led community stepped in after Fisker's collapse to keep these vehicles on the road. Featuring: Bill, Cristian, Gitte, Miles, Andrew and Sybil. From the PKC 2.1 rollout, community-built software, and volunteer technicians across the world, to the launch of OceanLink Pro, development of Pulse, new media attention, and growing parts and service partnerships—this episode captures how the FOA evolved from an idea into a functioning, self-governing ecosystem. Whether you're a current Fisker Ocean owner, a prospective buyer, or simply curious how a community can replace an OEM, this episode shows what's possible when owners take control.

  • Taking the Pulse: PKC21, OceanLink Pro, and the Future of the Fisker Ocean

    Taking the Pulse: PKC21, OceanLink Pro, and the Future of the Fisker Ocean
    Sep 19 2025
    In this episode of Ocean Currents, Miles Sedgwick and Andrew Bock sit down with Majd, lead developer behind the Pulse and Ocean Link Pro, and Gitte, from the Fisker Owners Association (FOA), to dive deep into the latest community-driven innovations for Fisker Ocean owners. From the OceanLink Pro app that empowers owners with diagnostics and remote control, to the Pulse device that brings wireless CarPlay, Android Auto, and native apps to the Ocean's big screen, to the PKC21 rollout enabling phone-as-key and preconditioning — this conversation reveals how the Fisker community is solving problems and building the future themselves. You'll also hear the backstory of how Majd reverse-engineered the Ocean, why Gitte calls the FOA a "kindergarten of creative people," and how more than 120 meetups worldwide are bringing owners together to upgrade, repair, and innovate. Whether you're an Ocean owner or just fascinated by how EV communities step up where automakers fall short, this episode is full of insights, stories, and a look at what's next — from hardware mods to potential Comma.ai integrations for advanced driving.

  • Right-Hand Drive, Left-Hand Problems: FOA in the EU & UK

    Right-Hand Drive, Left-Hand Problems: FOA in the EU & UK
    Aug 15 2025
    In this episode of the Ocean Currents podcast, Andrew Bock and Bill Spohn are joined by Miles Sedgwick and two prominent FOA leaders from the EU and UK — Geeta and Jose — to dive into the unique challenges and successes of Fisker ownership outside North America. The conversation addresses common perceptions that the EU and UK communities are "left out," highlighting instead a vibrant, collaborative ecosystem of owners and volunteers who are innovating solutions, supporting each other, and building bridges across language and geography. From the nuances of right-hand drive vehicles in the UK to organizing cross-border parts distribution and solving complex software issues, Geeta and Jose share firsthand stories of community ingenuity — like crowdfunded water pump buys, on-the-road repairs during ski trips, and volunteer-led "boot loop" fixes. They emphasize that FOA is a truly global effort, with shared problems and solutions flowing between continents, and that patience and cooperation remain key to long-term success. Listeners will gain insight into the resilience and creativity of EU and UK owners as they navigate software updates, parts availability, and service coverage while working toward a unified, worldwide FOA. Along the way, the discussion offers a healthy dose of humor, camaraderie, and even a few good-natured jabs about driving on "the wrong side of the car."
