0:00.0	I'm Richard Porter. I'm Johnny Smith. And this is Smith and Sniff. It's a podcast in which two
0:05.6	friends talk about cars and many other things. I wanted to say something about deep
0:17.6	these. Don't you? I keep getting, when you talk about the, you know, the sort of the
0:26.2	cut of the neck. You're talking about a jumpers, not not engines. So, well, this is the thing.
0:31.4	Every time someone mentions a deep V, I mean, I know you and I amongst our DMs, what's
0:37.1	up, so the things we talk about, deep V, the garments frequently. Yes. I always get it mixed up
0:43.7	at the hot V of the Mercedes V8. The hot V, every time I read that about an engine, I
0:52.2	always, it's somehow a think of deep V jump. So do I, it's not just me, someone of wearing a
0:57.4	deep V the other day and they got very offended. What? They denied it. They're a deep V

1:25.6	sprang back to be a round neck in the place it should be. And I went, Oh, God, I thought you were
1:29.7	wearing a deep V. And he went, What? Really? Why would I wear a deep V? Who do you think I am?
1:36.4	Come to pub for lunch, wearing a deep V. He's like genuinely a fronted by it. He's
1:43.8	suddenly like, Oh, I thought you were, you were sort of like you, you're aping the front end of an
1:47.7	early Volkswagen type two transporter. But actually, or the grill of a modern Alfa Romeo.
1:53.5	Oh, of course. Alfa grill neckline. Yeah. Or even a, the lesser known Edsel could be kind of,
2:02.2	I always think that hot V, like we're saying, the Mercedes V8 turbo design, engine design,
