My Dad's Car
Andy and Jon have discussions with invited guests about their personal relationships with automotive nostalgia.
Each episode kicks of by us asking “what’s your earliest car memory?”
From there it’s a journey back through time towards the modern day, but generally focusing on vehicles we remember from childhood.
We ask about music, smells, smoking, breakdowns, selling, buying, accidents and more.
Despite the podcast title, we don’t discriminate against cars belonging to other people, such as Mum’s, Gran’s, Uncle’s, Aunts, friends, or even a neighbours.
If it made an impression, we want to talk about it.
Likewise, this isn't a 'dead Dad's' podcast, but we do like to remember those who have passed, and have found it to be therapeutic to speak about our late Fathers whilst recording these shows.

My Dad's Car
John Marcar from Driven Podcast: Mum's brown Cortina. Nissa Micra, Bluebird, Dad’s BMWs S6E1
We're joined this week by John Marcar, the host and driving force behind the driven.site podcast, and website.
We met John up at the NEC at the end of last year, and whilst we didn't manage to sync our watches to record at the show, we sat down a few weeks later to have a proper chat.
From a chocolate brown Ford Cortina, to a K10 Micra, gifted to his Mum by his caring Auntie, to a Nissan Bluebird and his Father's access to exec level company cars through his work in a garage.
There was plenty to influence John, and help pave his way towards a career with cars.
We hope you enjoy this chat, and please also go and check out what John gets up to as well.
