  • Italian for Beginners (with Angie Voluti, former Alfa PR boss)

    Send Car-Chum a Text

    It’s been said that American, Swedish, German, French, Spanish and Australian cars have made it to the Car-Chum hall of fame, but Italian’s finest have been conspicuous by their absence.  This is the episode that rights that wrong – in spectacular style.  Former Alfa PR boss Angie Voluti joins Tony and Mike for forthright views and downright fun.

    Did you know that the ‘rod’ of Hotrod comes from the word ‘roadster’?  Well you do now, so I’ve saved you listening to this episode of the Car-Chum Podcast.  Unless that is, you want more facts and more fun.  Yes that is possible and you’ll find it in this edition.

    If you’re not familiar with the title, it was a term used to refer to the options dealers could upsell you when buying a new car.  A more accurate title for this edition of Car-Chum might have been “When Did You Last See…?”, but Mats and Flaps made us smile.  Anyway, here it is, the latest Car-Chum Podcast.

  • A View to a Car

    Sorry about the title: couldn’t resist – it just seemed to flow so well.  And it does desscribe the contents quite well.  A chance viewing of  James Bond in A View to a Kill – with Roger Moore, of course – led to a whole Car-Chum dedicated to it.  More specifically, the cars in the film.  Even if I do say so myself, it was a bit of a laugh.  Just a bit.

    Ever heard a motoring journalist hum Abba?  Ever wondered what a Dodge Charger Hellcat is really like?  Ever needed to pass an hour with no effort at all?  If the answer is yes to any of those, try the latest Car-Chum podcasts.  
    Tony and Mike crank out a few of the cars they’ve yet to drive.  Horsepower and horsing around:  it's the usual Car-Chum Podcast fayre.

About Car-Chum

From the publisher's feed

Two chums; one podcast. An automotive journalist and a radio presenter with a shared mono-maniacal interest; surely this should be good. Surely.
