On this week's driven chat podcast, things get a little heated between our very own John Marcar and our guest...(who happens to be one of the most famous faces in the world when it comes to automotive viral content).
Alex Kersten, 'the face of Car Throttle' joins the driven chat team to talk about how he swerved the standard desk-job-journey of automotive journalism, his obsession with buying 'interesting' cars and, to discuss a rather touchy subject about a particular Audi TT he bought from Mr Marcar (the jury is out).

On this week's Driven Chat Podcast! We speak to Merlin McCormack famously known as 'The Duke of London'. Merlin is regarded as one of the finest names in classic car sourcing, selling and even restoration and he kindly opened up his spectacular premises in Brentford, West London welcoming Andy, Amy and John access to a stunning collection of cars and motorcycles.
We hear the story about how Merlin started 'wheeling and dealing' with cars and motorbikes, how he helped build a family business, and, how he ended up being the landlord of his very own pub ...all before reaching his mid-twenties!

This weeks guest on The Driven Chat Podcast we have a superstar from the world of automotive PR; Paul Cowland!
In this week's show, we hear Andy trying to interpret the often bizarre German phrasing that surrounds the Nürburgring. We hear Marcar's tribulations of working with The Hoff and Amy (mainly) has her head in her hands as she contemplates what on earth she ever signed up for in recording podcasts with men with the average mental age of 13.
Amongst a plethora of childish humour and silliness, Paul joins us to talk about his love for the automotive world, his fabulous TV work, his obsession with buying cars and... to object against various allegations put down by Drew Pritchard in a previous episode!
