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
Bonus Episode: Car Parking, Parking Apps, Trolleys in the way and Bowling Shoes....
Prepare your ears for 10 minutes or so of bonus MDC content based around car parking…
After a recent trip to the town centre, Andy’s found the multi-storey carpark now demands you pay in advance rather than upon return to your vehicle. It’s a cash grab, and a pain in the backside!
Jon’s pet parking peeve is people leaving shopping trolleys in the spaces, we discuss whether you should be able to pay for a trolley by card, and even if the cattle grid ‘anti theft’ system used to keep trolleys in their place could be used in schools, perhaps with special shoes like the bowling alley.
Coincidentally, where are all these shoes now?!!
Lastly, we talk about rubbish being thrown from cars, something Jon suggests should be punished by a 3 day stint in the clink.
Hope you enjoy this one, see you next week for a usual ‘full’ episode.
