Gears and Beers: The Unashamedly Unprofessional Automotive Podcast

We're back for episode 101, with a new intro! This week, we start off by talking about hair cuts and fashion, of all things.

Mitch then does a quick review on the Holden Astra VX, before transitioning into talking about Ferrari's new $1M-plus Supercar; the SF90 Stradale with 736Kw from a combination of a turbocharged V8 and 3 electric motors.

We then briefly talk about Aston Martin and argue about naturally aspirated Vs. turbocharging.

Matt then talks about Australian pricing for the Tesla Model 3 being announced, at $66,000.

Joseph then talks about how you can pick up an Alfa-Romeo Quadrifoglio as a dealer-demo for $90,000 with only 4,00Km on the clock.

Matt talks about the to-be Volkswagen Golf R Plus; an $80,000 300Kw 450Nm AWD pocket-rocket confirmed to be coming to Australia.

Joseph talks about the new epic-looking Volvo S60 and V60 with a turbo-supercharged hybrid system developing 311Kw and 600+ Nm.

Matt then talks about Jaguar killing off the XJ in July, and they will replace it in 2020 with an 420Kw and 700Nm EV.

Joseph then trolls us with a $625,000 Ford Falcon XR6  advertised on CarSales.

Then Matt goes on CarSales and asks us what the 5 most expensive cars currently for sale on CarSales.

Mitch then talks about how the Lamborghini Urus, like the Kia Stinger, looks so much better in person than it does in photos.

Matt then asks us what the bottom 5 cheapest cars are on CarSales.

Then Mitch starts asking a question that Matt came up with on the way to the pod that he'd forgotten, until he remembers and asks the question himself. The question is in relation to servicing intervals, and why the intervals are measured on time and distance travelled and not litres of fuel used. This then turns into a bit of a classic Gears and Beers argument between Matt and Joseph.

We made it. This is Gears and Beers Episode 100!

###

Pre-warning, we were anything but sober for this one! You have been warned!

###

We start off with a bit of a montage from the last 100 episodes, before we kick off with Episode 100.

Firstly, thank you to all of you for putting up with us for the last 100 episodes, we really appreciate it.

We attempt to try and cover some actual news, starting off with Joseph talking about Toyota remaking parts for the A70 and A90 Supra, and clumsily transition to congratulating Matt on predicting the pricing of the base-model Supra being under $100,000.

We then take listener questions, and argue a lot.

Joseph then talks about the Hyundai Genesis G70 pricing being announced, and it turns into an argument.

Then Matt's PT asks whether we'd have any high-powered car in automatic or manual.

Mitch then talks about Audi planning to kill off the TT, and probably the R8, by 2025, which gets us onto talking about how the I.C.E. is probably going to be outlawed in our generation.

We then take a few more questions, from Fitzy, Ryan from Knackers In The Breeze podcast, and Alice (Ben's Missus).

 Thanks for listening and supporting us for the last 100 episodes, here's to the next 100!

We're nearly at episode 100! But before that, we have episode 99! Mitch is back this week from gallivanting around Broken Hill.

We start off by talking about doin' deeds on the company dollar, and general bollocks, before eventually breaking into the news.

Mitch kicks off the news with Mazda, and their goal to become a 'luxury' brand with the introduction of an inline 6 and possibly a rear wheel drive sportscar, before we transition into talking about the media embargo lifting on the Mk5 Supra, and our thoughts on the Supra and the reviews on YouTube.

Mitch then talks about his latest rental experience, this time, a previous-gen Toyota Corolla hatch with the 7-speed automatic, before getting back onto talking about the Supra.

We're back for episode 98! This week, Mitchell is away in Broken Hill for work, however Matt and Joseph have roped in our good mate Alex Fitzpatrick to fill Mitch's shoes this week.

Joseph kicks off the news this week, starting with news about the new Mk5 Toyota Supra, specifically the two trim levels available for Australia; base and TRD both offered with the BMW 6 cylinder. There will be no 4-banger variation in Australia. Then, Joseph talks about the new manual-only $605,000 Porsche 911 Speedster.

Then the boys talk about the latest change to the Supercar Mustang at the last 'SuperNight' races in Perth.

Then Matt asks what Joseph has done to his GT86 this week, specifically an update about his new Rays wheels, and Fitzy talks about his car history.

Then we talk about what beer we're drinking, and once again, to the absolute surprise of literally nobody, it's Great Northern.

Then Matt asks the panel for their top 5 favourite cars, and then he goes through the list of cars that didn't make it make it through our knock-out rounds with Fitzy.

Then the lads argue about their favourite car brands, Mazdas, ITB's and the GT86's intake sound tube, and their favourite Australian racetracks, and their least favourite car brands.

Joseph kicks off the news this week with Ford inventing a product that literally nobody asked for, and Kim Jong Un rocking a Mercedes S600 and Mercedes doesn't know how he got it.

Matt talks about the camo'd-up new Land Rover Defender, and even though it's camo'd, it looks awful, and Joseph asks what we'd pick between a Toyota 79 series or a Ford Ranger Raptor.

Joseph then brings up the Victorian Police getting a brand new BMW M5, and the new US Hakone Edition GT86 special edition in 'British Green Limited' green, not British Racing Green, an important distinction, and we talk about Chrysler's 300C.

Then Mitch talks utter nonsense about the new Toyota test track, and the new manual Aston Martin Vantage AMR.

 We're back for episode 94! This week we're joined once again by Ben, and we've had a few bevs before recording this one, so we talk a bit of bollocks before breaking into the news.

Joseph brings up a bit of news about our favourite Chinese auto maker, MG, with them expanding in the Australian market with opening up more dealerships and overall strong sales results.

We then talk about Toyota Australia deliberately withholding the Mk5 Supra from being able to be pre-ordered in dealerships, and will only be available for purchase online.

We then talk about the cars we've been fawning over, and this week Matt talks about E39 and E34 M5's.

We then change things up a bit. We were approached by Ryan and Barry of 'Knackers In The Breeze' podcast - A UK Comedy Podcast - to exchange random questions. Their question for us was about a Veyron, our questions for them are bloody weird, to say the least - Well, one of them is.

Knackers In The Breeze is a great new podcast, give them a listen!

Alright, we're back on-form this week for episode 93! This week we're post all-you-can-eat-meat platter from the Bav, beered-up, and back on-form!

This week we're joined once again by Ben of the Pencil's Ballercast, and we talk a bit of shit before breaking into this week's news!

Joseph kicks us off with Uber introducing a 7-year age cap on vehicles used to Uber, then Mitch talks about the NRMA wanting the Australian Government to ban the sale of all internal combustion engines by the year 2030, which we think is complete bollocks, but it does start a healthy discussion about renewable energy personal transportation.

Then Mitch breaks into a deeply passionate rant about windscreen wipers, and how bad drivers get even worse in bad weather.

Then we get onto our poll from last week, between whether the Mazda RX8 is cool, or is not cool. By a nose, you our audience, think the RX8 is cool by a nose!

Then we talk about which is better, the Mitsubishi Delica or the Toyota Tarago, which develops into a complete argument about how to pronounce "Delica".

Then Matt talks about his adventures while camping over the weekend, and getting his LandCruiser well and truly stuck.

Joseph then talks about Honda's April Fools gag-advertisement for their 'Pastport' self-spoof of their 'Passport', and then we talk about Australian car sales statistics being well and truly in the toilet.

Then Matt makes us guess 2 cars (like 'What About This Car'), then we talk about them for a bit.

Then we end on talking about our favourite James Bond's.

 We're joined once again by Ben from Pencil's Ballercast, and Joel is once again absent (as usual!), and it's a bit of a shorter episode this week 'cause we were all a bit off the rails this week. It'll be getting back to our normal 1 hour of pure bollocks next episode for sure.

We then get into a discussion (argument) about Porsche, and whether the 911 is still a 'sports car' or a grand tourer that can play a sports car.

Then we have a bit more Porsche news, regarding the new 911-ish Cayenne, and comparing it to the Lamborghini Urus.

We then break into a bit of 'Show Me What You Got', and this week, the requirements are that it has to be under $7,500 and manual.
