  • Richard Tuthill - Tuthill Porsche - Episode 29
    This episode of the morning drive: I sat down with the wonderful Richard Tuthill, of Tuthill Porsche. We had a chat about all things Tuthill, Porsches, safari, and more! Richard was an absolute pleasure to chat with and shared some really insightful stories of the history of Tuthill and where things are heading in the future.

    We do have a small break in the middle as Richard needed to shake down a customer car and was kind enough to invite me along for the ride.

    You can find out more about Tuthills here.

  • Seán Matthews - Renneleven - Episode 28

    This episode of the morning drive: I headed to the flat sixes and flat white car meet with host and all round great guy Seán Matthews, founder of Renneleven. Seán's Porsche 996 was having some work and so he hopped in the passenger seat of the GT86 and we headed over together. It was about half an hour in to the drive Seán brought to light he had mic's with him and that we could record directly to them, so what better opportunity for a podcast!

    This was recorded in the rather noisy GT86, and using microphones I've not used before, to put this together I had to download and learn a whole new piece of software! As is often the case, you're on this learning journey with me.

    There may be some road noise, and there's two parts to the recording, hopefully it's all pretty coherent.

    I also snook in a bit of an advert for Werke Mag in the intro to say thank you for them featuring a Takona ad in the mag, you should check them out here.

  • Jon Bentley - The Gadget Show / Top Gear - Episode 27

    This episode of the morning drive: I sat down with the wonderful Jon Bentley, a man I'd grown up watching on the likes of the Gadget Show and Fifth Gear, bumping into him at the Bicester Scramble was surreal, sitting with him for an hour and a half for my own podcast was a treat younger me would never have expected to happen.

    Jon and I recorded this episode in a Skoda Yeti which was actually pretty good to record in, but there may still be some background noise from time to time. 

    As always keep up with all things Takona at www.takona.co.uk

  • Ben Pearson - Police Interceptors - Episode 25

    This episode of the morning drive: I sit down with Ben Pearson, best known for his time on the police interceptors. Ben met with me at the Motorist, after one of our coffees and cars meets, to have a chat about life as a police officer and how he came away from that career due to PTSD. Ben is now working hard to raise awareness for PTSD especially within the police force, by hosting events, writing books, giving talks, and more! He's really using his own experiences to help others and it was great to sit down and have a good chat about it all. 

    We do touch upon some quite dark places, please consider this a trigger warning ahead of listening.

  • Alex Denham - Motorsport Photographer - Episode 24

    We had a trip up to our coffees and cars meet at The Motorist in Yorkshire which turned out to be the perfect meeting place to sit down with our brand ambassador Alex denham.

    Alex is a fantastic photographer, with a portfolio of stunning work to her name. Currently known for her motorsport work mainly, with a more diverse range on the horizon. Alex is someone I personally followed on social media and found to be inspiring, skilled, and openly talking about mental health in an honest and encouraging way.

    You can see more of Alex and her work over on her Instagram.
