Podcast 97 - Prelude 1.8 on low RON fuel
Added 2022-02-27 18:01:02 +0000 UTCJonny's been listening to Foreigner and Richard has a problem with the way people impersonate Elvis.
Also in this episode, enjoying over-the-top songs, the art of extremely good backing vocals, grating cheese on a SAAB 99 Turbo alloy wheel, the value of PlayStation memorabilia, the inconvenience of cassette tapes, and the heroism of tumbling superbike riders.
Plus, Fanta accidents, classic cisterns, West Country power, Japanese lavatory mishaps, more Alfa Giulia thoughts, and bands you can't enjoy because the leader singer seems to be a bit of a flute.
Comments
Current over the top song chaps, Dangerous Ground by H E A T. Even has some form of (I assume) muscle car revving up at the start.

2022-06-11 15:57:53 +0000 UTCAbsolute Radio, sitting backwards on the loo, Saab 3 spoke alloys, high cisterns. This is why we listen to this podcast. We're all thinking it!

2022-03-04 08:19:43 +0000 UTCJonny's brother is correct on the old high cistern toilets. The modern short flush toilets are the bane of my professional life (drainage worker) along with wet wipes.

2022-03-01 17:11:20 +0000 UTCI also love a classic washing machine, complete with a “hot fill”…. Not to be confused with “hot Phil”…. Which is quite different

2022-02-28 14:20:05 +0000 UTCIf one was engaged in extended activity whilst forward facing on a toilet, would the product not begin to build up on the shelf area running the risk of cheek/product contact, on that side of things?

2022-02-28 12:14:25 +0000 UTCBob Mortimer is an advocate of the reverse toilet stance because of, in his words, 'a high anus'...

2022-02-28 10:06:17 +0000 UTCI'm definitely one to ignore a band if the lead singer is a flute. For example I won't have any Marc Almond or Soft Cell played, based on him having a hissy diva tantrum at the backing band during one of TV's Chris Evans "Car Fests" a few years back. A total plastic botox faced flute. I also think the same of the Stereophonics after Kelly Jones took the piss out of Baaaad Dad from the Adam & Joe show.

2022-02-28 09:45:34 +0000 UTCGreat show as always. I just looked at the PEPSI Concorde - Unilever missed an opportunity there, they could have borrowed the supersonic signage for a while, and for the price of some minor alterations, had a PERSIL powered plane. Oh well.

2022-02-27 20:40:58 +0000 UTCI've been listening to The KLF as they recently put a load on Spotify. I do have Doctorin' The Tardis on vinyl, naturally, on that side of things.

2022-02-27 20:30:16 +0000 UTCGreat show again! Your chat about Curiosity reminded me about this "celebrity" dating show that the lead singer, Ben Vol-Au-Vont Parrot, appeared on. I believe the clip is on YouTube so if you find it, tell me if you think it's scripted or not!
Stuart Richards
2022-02-27 20:09:00 +0000 UTCVery interested in the tapes if they are for sale Richard as I have 80s cars with tape decks I often need new listening material. 😄another great cast 😀

2022-02-27 19:03:07 +0000 UTCI'm going to Aylesbury tomorrow to buy an R129 SL. I may end up coming home with a Saab with three-spokes now!
