Brian Clarke

Season 6 · Episode 8

Tuesday, August 29, 2023 • Duration 31:27

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.

Jim shares his father’s penchant for cheap petrol, while Jools laments the discrepancy in size between his car and its badges. The topic of backseat driving takes the front seat, and the three are faced with the ultimate conundrum: to wear trainers or not to wear trainers…

Manish Pandy

Season 6 · Episode 7

Tuesday, August 22, 2023 • Duration 33:39

Racing down the track and screeching to a halt outside the studio this week is writer, director and producer Manish Pandey: ready to take Jools and Jim from 0 to 160mph.

From Lamborghini Countaches to Citroen 2CVs, trains in India to taxis in Greenwich – Manish takes Joyride’s transport motif very seriously. Plus, there’s a blast from the petrol crisis past, and Jim and Manish compare Airfix model counts.

There’s an exciting cameo from a train horn (a treat for train fan Manish); and the three tackle topics such as Ayrton Senna, ill-designed chopper bicycles, and the contents of everyone’s wash bag…

Wednesday, November 9, 2022 • Duration 32:17

This week Jools and Jim take a trip in a WWII jeep with composer, producer and Chas & Dave drummer Nik Hodges.

Nik shares tales of touring with Chas & Dave, rose-tinted memories of roadside eateries and the world of collectible military vehicles. Meanwhile, there’s talk of drunk wasps, phallic spaceships and Jim explains Bob Mortimer’s passion for hard boiled eggs,

The three consider the evolution of an accent, eccentric vs traditionalist driving, and the lengths Jools will go for a fish finger sandwich; plus Jim shares his vision for an underwater future…

Shaun Keavney

Season 5 · Episode 5

Wednesday, November 2, 2022 • Duration 33:47

Broadcaster Shaun Keavney makes a break for it after being “landlocked in his postcode” as he joins Jools and Jim for this week’s episode of Joyride. From Neasden to LA, Shaun ponders seeing (and not seeing) the sights, while Jools confesses to an unlikely annual pilgrimage. The three talk long-life lightbulbs, whether zeppelins deserve another chance, and the enchanting smell of steam. But after recounting a terrible train journey to Edinburgh, Shaun questions whether his episode of Joyride will even make the cut…

Season 5 · Episode 4

Tuesday, October 25, 2022 • Duration 34:31

After briefly getting stuck in the Blackwell tunnel, Vick Hope takes Jools and Jim from Tanzania to Nicaragua via “real America” in this week’s Joyride.

The broadcaster and journalist shares stories of electronic tango in Argentina, a glittering necropolis in Brazil and eating jollof rice from a camping stove in Scotland. Meanwhile Jim’s close encounter with a lion doesn’t quite match up to Vick’s.

Jools questions what it means when a man gives you stones, and the three discuss haircuts (good and bad), functional boat journeys, and buying counterfeit money at the airport… A Dig! Studios / Warner Music Entertainment podcast. Produced by Molly Stewart.

Melanie C

Season 5 · Episode 3

Wednesday, October 19, 2022 • Duration 33:42

Jim and Jools strap on their helmets and go for a sporty spin on their Choppers (or Tomahawks) with Mel C this week.

The American Music, Brit and Ivor Novello award-winning singer talks to Jools and Jim about childhood fearlessness, holidays in the “Welsh Riviera” and the vital importance of mirror placement; and while Jim thinks back to disappointing a crowd of lorry drivers, Jools and Mel consider the ultimate sign of punk affection.

Jools recalls kicking a roast chicken into the desert, and the three discuss the concept of an “open burglary”, Wikipedia accuracy and the optimum cereal to have thrown at you… A Dig! Studios / Warner Music Entertainment podcast. Produced by Molly Stewart.

Paul Whitehouse

Season 5 · Episode 2

Tuesday, October 11, 2022 • Duration 32:40

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…

Join Jools and Jim once again as they take to the road (and sky, and sea) for another series of Joyride, this week alongside singer-songwriter Marc Almond.

The Soft Cell vocalist shares tales of travelling through the USSR, where to find the best fish and chips, and owning cars he can’t drive; plus the three discuss eclectic shared houses, and Marc divulges the secrets of jackdaw ownership.

There’s talk of prehistoric birds, stolen leather jackets and an Anglo-American cultural exchange; and while Jim samples “food of the world” on a mountain top, Jools causes a stir with an uncanny impression…

Joe recounts the difficulties of flying in a Russian fighter jet, and the three discuss ancient flutes, whether a dragonfly is a fairy (or vice versa), and how to tell the time in the jungle…
