0:00.0 | Was that the racing trip you did when you decided not to race with your friends or |
0:04.4 | that, yeah, because you got to better offer? So you had to drive to Germany all by |
0:08.2 | yourself. So I sort of think that serves you bloody right, but then one of us |
0:16.6 | got a car in the Porsche museum with our name on the side of it and one of us |
0:19.6 | hasn't. So I suppose that. Yeah, but there's another side to go. Keep going, keep going. |
0:33.5 | Hello and welcome to episode 13 of the Collecting Addicts podcast. We have had a new |
0:38.8 | name offered. It's rather good. It's called Goftix. That's an acronym. It stands for |
0:45.9 | Grumpy Old Farts Talking Car Shit. I thought that was rather good, actually. So maybe it should |

1:43.1 | The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice. I think it's Martha |
1:50.3 | and Luca King, maybe. I suppose my analogy is we always think the new one. Maybe is not as |
