Smith and Sniff
Live from a field near Goodwood
This week Jonny and Richard sit in a field drinking wine and talking about things they've seen at 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.
