0:00.0	Welcome to the Intercooler Podcast.
0:05.4	Hi everybody, welcome back to the Intercooler podcast for the final episode of the year, episode 244, with Dan Prosser and Andrew Frankel. 244.
0:15.4	We're going to ask to give some proper thought, Andrew, to 250. So six weeks away.
0:20.6	Crumbs, it is, isn't it?

1:14.1	And look ahead a little bit to the new cars that are coming in 2025.

1:20.6	the first episode of the New Year.
1:22.2	Because we're actually going out on New Year's Eve.
1:26.8	So if it does happen to be January the first, 2nd, 3rd, 4th,
