Madchester Nov 08, 2021

Show notes

The morning after The Late Brake Show Live in Manchester Jonny and Richard are in a hotel room talking about Madchester shoes, big windowed sixties houses, almost losing control of a Ford F-150 Lightning, the horrors of doing exercise without any clothes on, and all the usual nonsense (but with added claggy throat and tiredness).

The new Range Rover and Adele's BMW Nov 01, 2021

John Travolta restomod Oct 25, 2021

Show notes

Still sounding pretty sickly for various reasons, Jonny and Richard nonetheless manage to talk some nonsense about stopping modern-day John Travolta looking so weird, Ken Block defecting to Audi, films famous for just one scene, WRC cars not looking realistic, and the time Jonny ran with the bulls in Pamplona. Also in this episode, speccing up a Mondeo Vignale, the size of lungs, matadors' terrible clothes, why the Ferrari Roma has a cheap GoPro knock-off in its front bumper, suggested spin-offs from Harry's Farm, messing with Ken Bruce, and what did Alan Rickman drive in real life?

Also in this episode, struggling to recall Kim Basinger's music career, buying out of date sweets from Jeff Bezos's lock-up, going nuts with one of those suitcase cellophane machines, the pros and cons of space exploration, and whatever happened to Tasmin Archer? Plus, wanting a Hillman Imp over a Mini, going on a long trip in a Porsche Taycan, baristas racing high speed car chargers, EVs sounding like the choir of the dead, and everyone knew someone at college who had a didgeridoo. This episode also features two remarkable stories from listeners, one about a scary Kiwi car selling experience and one about trying to wee into a bottle at the wheel of a fast-moving Lotus.

A dog, a Jazz, and a spooky coincidence Sep 06, 2021

Show notes

Jonny tells a story about being a good samaritan that takes an unexpected live action turn. Also in this episode, using the word village for other things, the size of old car keys, making up lies about places, the arrival of a baby tortoise, cats suffering front wheel lock-up, diagonal walking into a Korean restaurant disaster, a mysterious blue Lotus Carlton, enjoying turbo lag, and conversational ticks (and all that, basically, on that side of things).
