| 0:00.0 | I'm Johnny Smith. I'm Richard Porter. |
| 0:03.7 | And this is Smith and Sniff, a podcast in which two friends talk about cars and many other things. |
| 0:13.5 | What in the name of lichy-scented mermaid's tears is going on with modified forward ranges at the moment. |
| 0:22.3 | Yes. |
| 0:23.8 | We're talking, my reference for lichy-scented mermaid tears is the vape, |
| 0:29.7 | which comes out of them when they seem to cog it past me, |
| 0:33.8 | or tailgate with quite an aggressive bonnet height because they've been lifted. |

| 1:37.8 | know. But also for context of people overseas, that truck culture is not the same here as it is in the |
| 1:43.1 | US. No. |
| 1:44.4 | I just think, or in Australia for that matter. |
| 1:46.3 | I just don't think we don't have the same culture of outdoorsiness. |
| 1:50.5 | No. |
| 1:51.3 | Because our weather's not as good. |
