My Dad's Car : Nostalgic cars of our childhood
Join Andy and Jon, two friends who have discussions with invited guests about their personal relationships with automotive nostalgia and family history.
Each episode kicks off with us asking our guest “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 siblings, neighbours, 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 those cars made an impression, we want to talk about them.
