I've listened to a few of these now and they're all good but this is the funniest. Highly recommended, shame they don't seem to of done any since Feb 2022.
Interesting chat, shame the sound quality isn't that great. Be better if each guest had their own mic.
It is so great to hear from Nicky, by far my favourite podcast. I was there when Nicky and Colin crashed and he broke his toe.
Amazing podcast, wanted more and more!
So simple, but easily my favourite podcast! feels like you are sat with them having a chat.
👍
Love Tiff, back in the 90's I used to visit Company Car in Action and Tiff was the race driver who would take you for a spin on the short circuit. He was exactly as he sounds on the podcast and scared the shit out of me. What a gentleman and such a true nice guy. The jumped up TV 20 year old production twat who dropped him from 5th gear should be named and shamed. love the podcast. Paul Devine
Best Podcast ever!!! If I remember rightly Impreza's sound good due to unequal length manifolds.

brilliant work guys, I could listen all day
Please please please mix the volume to adjust for the peaks. when laughing occurs, it's piercingly loud. Absolutely love the podcast and content, though!
Can't wait to hear your first one.
