Podcast 104 - Mitsubishi Jet Towel
Added 2022-04-17 17:00:04 +0000 UTCJonny has discovered a new type of Mitsubishi and it's good news for your granddad.
Also in this episode, hot V versus deep V versus Flying V, Britain's sleeziest alloy wheel, going round the M25 by mistake, slipping Smith and Sniff references into interviews, a cute old couple in a Mazda2, the problem with the boot on a Morris Minor, the Yaris Cross doing something weird with its teeth, the coming trend for safari-style cars, names for off-brand energy drinks, the old pits at Reims, Jonny having an accident in the old pits at Reims, how they end soap operas, terrible emails we have received, and how do linen trousers get on in space?
Oh, and Richard has a small dog in the room again.

I’ve just used a Mitsubishi Jet Towel in Nice airport. Pleasingly efficient as a hand-dryer.

2022-04-20 21:16:44 +0000 UTCJonny mentions that the discovery of Viagra is a much better story than how Corn Flakes were invented. WELL HANG ON. “If illicit commerce of the sexes is a heinous sin,” John Harvey Kellogg wrote, “self-pollution is a crime doubly abominable.” Despite being married, he lived an entirely celibate life, and invented several dietary 'cures' for curbing libido, among them Corn Flakes. Corn Flakes are, quite literally, supposed to be the antidote to Blue Zeus.

2022-04-20 17:57:13 +0000 UTCBravo chaps, by far the most enjoyable episode yet. Giggled the whole way through it. Even if it did start off with Jonny sounding incredibly pissed off 😂

2022-04-19 18:23:02 +0000 UTCAll the more surprising they don’t have any recollection of this when Alpine Sports X is such an obvious Smith & Sniff podcast topic leading to a ten minute deviation chat about mountainous extreme shagging.

2022-04-19 07:40:13 +0000 UTCYaris Cross should be renamed the Yaris Blakey (I'll get you Butler). Never mind hand dryers, have you seen a drag belt sander?

2022-04-18 11:21:33 +0000 UTCIt did amuse that there was talk about little blue pills then Jonny talking about cornflakes as they were invented as a means to try to stop masturbation https://metro.co.uk/2019/08/17/kelloggs-corn-flakes-invented-stop-masturbation-10587364/

2022-04-18 07:16:38 +0000 UTCThere is also a Deep V boat design, so could have someone wearing a deep V playing a flying V on a deep V boat, that is powered by a V8 engine.

2022-04-18 07:11:34 +0000 UTCNot quite Dakar spec, but Alpine did homologate the A110 for R-GT class rallying. Frank Delecour did some testing and ran some events I think https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Zk7BddKhVXo

2022-04-18 03:32:27 +0000 UTCThe lifted Alpine is such a good idea indeed, so good even that Renault realised and made the A110 Sports X concept (and somehow didn’t put it in production…)

2022-04-17 20:00:50 +0000 UTCSmith & Sniff and Georgio Armarni? More like Zana Badawi

2022-04-17 19:51:28 +0000 UTCSitting waiting to board the ferry in Harwich. The whole family(!) Had a proper good laugh at this one. Such good value. Also Waitrose sell "jazz apples" which always seemed borderline Smit to me. Make of that what you will. Cheers
