I'm Johnny Smith.

I'm Richard Porter.

And this is Smith and Sniff, a podcast in which two friends talk about cars and many other things.

Now look, we don't normally do car news on this podcast.

Not really.

Or we do, but we do it like six weeks after it's happened because we're very

useless and forgetful.

And we'll put a spin on it that no one really asked for.

We talked about cars quite a lot last week and we had quite a few people go, no, that's fine.

We enjoyed that, which I didn't expect because usually we get told off for talking about

cars.

But let's just shuffle over

to the motor industry news desk because it's steaming it is and um we need to talk about jerry

mcgoverne hair because let's be honest everybody else is so why not but i also think that

there's been a great deal of chatter that's

sort of incorrect or lacks any sense of knowledge about how the car industry works yes um as you

probably know the news broke last Tuesday that jerry mcgover was leaving Jaguar Land Rover.

The implication was, in fact, he had left extremely abruptly.

Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And there was lots of hyperbole in the coverage about,

he was marched from the building.

Yes.
