Podcast 65 - Live from a field near Goodwood
Added 2021-07-11 18:01:00 +0000 UTCThis week Jonny and Richard are actually in the same room, except the room is a field. And they're drinking wine.
The idea of this extra-long episode was to discuss all the news from the Goodwood Festival of Speed so naturally the conversation covers Brut aftershave, buying wine at 9am, Sweden's top TV chef, sporting event streakers, aerobatic display team The Reawarrs, Gordon Murray's hydration strategy, Michael Bolton on a bicycle, talking like a pilot day, the perils of magnet fishing, a French Garfield phone mystery, pretending to be a dangerously unqualified handyman, Bridget Jones's welding, watching the International Space Station go overhead, what all Prince songs are about, Jim Glickenhaus's surprising trousers, and the Duke of Richmond weeing in a sink.
Despite this there's also some car talk covering an overheating Jag, the Ferrari Roma's base model grille, a shirtcocking Jeep, the beauty of an early Countach, plus the Maserati MC20, the McLaren Artura, the Lotus Emira, the Kimera EVO37, the Aston Valkyrie, the Corvette C8, the Glickenhaus SCG004 and some Hispano-Suizas.

What a great podcast - and I hadn’t guessed from the first minute the recording was supported by vino 😉

2021-07-12 07:09:02 +0000 UTCI was intensely hoping to hear a proper Rowley Birkin "I was very, very drunk" before the recording ended. But sadly, no.

2021-07-11 23:06:24 +0000 UTCNo corks were engaged for their fundamental purpose, as it should be. We should hope for many more in this style in the future. It's a winning formula I'd say.

2021-07-11 21:53:06 +0000 UTCExcellent podcast guys. Thanks for extra long episode this week. Can’t go wrong with brut, been using brut since I was 8 and I’m 23 now

2021-07-11 21:38:05 +0000 UTCI’m afraid it’s brutally obvious that nothing was corked during the recording. Nothing at all.

2021-07-11 21:35:24 +0000 UTCI love a well lubricated podcast. Great that you could finally be in the same place again, talking absolute toss as usual.
Matt Tester
2021-07-11 21:24:51 +0000 UTCIt’s either that or they ended up drinking Brut. Either way, the effect is much the same…

2021-07-11 20:34:56 +0000 UTCI saw a Renault Spouwaaarghtaaaaaah Spider today. It was a bit like a blue pancake with a roll bar. It was been driven by a grey haired old guy with a beard, he drove in to a Tesco petrol station.

2021-07-11 20:31:57 +0000 UTCI measured out the central point of a wall in my house to put a mirror up. It was SO precisely central that I drilled through the central heating pipes. I had to put my finger up like the little boy in a dyke until the plumber arrived.

2021-07-11 20:30:19 +0000 UTCI feel I may have had too much red wine. Although, that's not really possible. I think you chaps might have too...

2021-07-11 20:08:01 +0000 UTCI went from flying to train driving. Alway made my driver announcements as if I was a British Airways captain. "Ladies and Gentleman, we're now approaching London Paddington, expecting to arrive in around five minutes just as soon as we've been allocated a parking spot. Thank you for choosing Great Western Railways, we hope you'll travel with us again". As if they had any choice...

2021-07-11 19:51:11 +0000 UTCShit, you're having screw-on wine cap booze. Completely understand, useful stuff. I remember buying a cork bottle at Goodwood one year and had to go back out and buy a f***ing corkscrew. Got a lot of them. Corkscrews that is. And empty wine bottles.

2021-07-11 19:50:36 +0000 UTCThe modern day alternative to the streaker’s bum-hole wallet quandary is Apple Pay via an Apple Watch. It would appear Apple Inc think of literally everything.

2021-07-11 19:36:18 +0000 UTCI've started buying Brut splash-on as a result of your 'casts. Gits. Mind you, I wish you could smell me. And that I had a green Camaro. Use it as hair tonic, fab(erge)-u-lous. Mrs H complemented me on my odour the other day, until I farted. Hmm, too much spicy food.
