Pulling into the bus garage and loading up on anti-freeze, Brian Clarke invites Jools and Jim to park up and stay put in the final Joyride of this series. The painter and stained-glass artist warns of the deadly nature of travel, before discussing architectural epiphanies, mid-flight mock mochas, and an unfaltering skill for identifying the cars of 1960s Oxford.

Miles Copeland

Dialling in from the middle of nowhere, Jools and Jim are joined for a virtual Joyride this week by music executive and former Squeeze manager Miles Copeland. From military rejection to musical domination, Miles recalls a life spent on the road (when he’d much rather not travel at all) — featuring horse-riding photo opportunities and finding a bodyguard for Sting thanks to Jools’ foolish roadie. Miles explains why you can never write too many, plus the three contemplate a near miss with a chartered aeroplane, early CIA tactics, and the difference between CBeebies and CBGBs… A Dig!

The three laud the joys of the inland waterways and talk sea monsters, sub-par submarines and unusual purchases at auction… A Dig! Studios / Warner Music Entertainment podcast.

Meanwhile there’s an unlikely argument for smoking indoors, and Jools delights in AI mispronunciation of Old Kent Road.

Paul Whitehouse

This week Jools and Jim switch off the engine and cast a line with Harry and Paul and The Fast Show star, Paul Whitehouse. The actor and comedian takes Jools and Jim on a trip through East Germany, despite sharing a less than encouraging motto for travel; and the three consider different approaches to fishing (and birdwatching). Paul recounts salmon fishing in Russia, the most delicious apple juice he’s ever sampled, and he and Jim think back to driving together in a gold Hillman Imp. Meanwhile, the three workshop an idea for a makeshift toilet, and Jools notes Paul’s lack of a watch… A Dig! Studios / Warner Music Entertainment podcast. Produced by Molly Stewart. Hosted on Acast.
