Awards season coming up. It'd be pretty amazing if Paul Dano lamped Quentin Tarantino.

This week's "weird cars for sale on Facebook" podcast has a vintage TV theme, with a Knight Rider Pontiac and an Only Fools And Horses Reliant. Roughly fifty minutes of white hot, pure entertainment:
Ever fantasised about being Michael Knight or Del Boy?

Well, good news! This week we've found a Pontiac modified to look like KITT and a Reliant Rialto as the Trotters' three-wheel.

Plus, a ludicrous Duckhams competition from 1991 to win a Sierra Cosworth.

Surprised we managed to make it through this entire episode without referencing Del Boy falling through the bar.

Though we did talk about Michael Knight getting punched in the crotch and Magnum PI shooting a nun off a ladder...

Has anyone run a sweepstake over Your Party imploding even more quickly than Change UK (which I think lasted less than a year).
Chaos has engulfed the first 24 hours of the inaugural 'Your Party' conference in Liverpool, with Zarah Sultana boycotting the first day of the event, Jeremy Corbyn facing "witch-hunt" allegations, and an entryism row

The best podcast ever (about second-hand cars on Facebook Marketplace) is back with a brace of absurdly powerful TVRs. One of them is purple.
TVR is apparently back!

So, what better way to pay tribute to those manly maverick geniuses than looking at a Tuscan which has been cared for better than the owner's offspring and a Cebera which may or may not have once been used to sell marital aids?

Join us as we try to answer the question of what comes first: Finishing building your kit car or your spouse divorcing you?
On this week's episode, we go back to a time when everything was very angular after finding a Triumph TR7 and a Ginetta G26.

Plus, we learn how to speak like second-hand car salesman courtesy of Jason Dawe.

If this isn't enough to make you want to become the proud owner of a Ginetta G26, then frankly nothing is!

Find out more about that, a "winter project" Triumph TR7 and second-hand car salesman lingo in our latest episode.

The return of The Running Man got me thinking about Arnold Schwarzenegger's "I'll be back" catchphrase. How often did he use it? How did its meaning change over time? I had a look:

Every line a disaster. Absolute comedy gold.
