This would have been a hilarious Seinfeld episode, you causing Jerry to get his first speeding ticket lol 😂

[@larssonk22]

haha exactly, Begining of the episode everyone loves the Brits End of the episode everyone loves the Brits except Jerry

[@pistonburner6448]

I legit still sometimes stop and think about what an amazing name Seen Through Glass is. Well, in addition to it being an inspired name, Behind The Glass and that name are also hilarious when I look at a show which consists of two nerds in glasses.

[@NightfallDrives]

'Affordable dream cars' would be a segment I’d love to see. Cracking episode guys 😎

[@pistonburner6448]

"It looked good from afar..." "When up close it didn't look as good" "The thing went all floppy" Story checks out.

[@Druezy]

There is nothing better than Sam's American accent.

[@richboy900]

Would like to see the cheaper car content, try and get Tony convinced on a Dacia 😂. Amazing story with Jerry as well, he's a proper car guy.

[@exploremore2871]

Would love to see a second channel with random videos and smaller vlogs. I think it could be quite popular

[@Alfierk]

I think you forgot about the worldwide Miata MX-5 clubs and gatherings as being huge

[@Rocky-hh3yg]

Just watched the smoking tyre episode, main takeaway from that is Sam knows about Next Friday 😂 love it.

[@mtnvalley9298]

Best story on this podcast ever 25:03, and will be tough top top. Well done Jerry lol, Sam! and the CHiP.

[@vinceliu4138]

Favourite weekly podcast fix!

[@balders1538]

What you could do is go on these press drives as a duo film it which might be half of a podcast and then when you’re sat down in the studio record the second half talking about it + a few of the other topics that are relevant that week

[@f1jr724]

Thanks for the video Gav 👍

[@Swifty270]

Another awesome episode boys! I’d be all about a little affordable but nice SUV comparison video! I think having yours and Tony’s spin would be a fun change amongst the normal content!

[@scalecrawlnl]

Thank you ✌😊 Fun travel report Behind The Glass episode. Fingers crossed for an LA revisit with Tony!

[@porscheguy5848]

Please do patreon. I would love to ask questions at the end of the show. Definitely worth the $5/month

[@FeelsDonkMan]

This podcast is becoming a must watch, love it

[@brendansmith2658]

Glad you were able to take in the moment with Jerry without cameras, my dream day!

[@brianpautz]

Would love you and Tony getting in more normal cars!

[@marcop4845]

What an episode :) damn amazing

[@quintongrand]

it’s so funny me n my lady live in California right now and watch u because you’re in UK and we want to move there! you making us want to stay 😂

[@Carreraboy911]

Jerry Sienfield almost T- bonned me about 30 years ago at the Porsche even at Carlisle PA, came just an inch or 2 away from my door

[@certifiedbidry]

49:12 please do that, personally its the content i prefer

[@brianhimmelman420]

best YT channel all time !!!! u r killing it bra

[@oneeleven9832]

Ouuwww that picture of the 918 in dark blue was nice..they are usually silver..

[@HG504X]

Fun fact last 918 produced was red.

[@neddy781]

Sam I think that's good that you're going to make some changes. Especially if some of them revolve around staying closer to home. Not ro get to personal, but I have a daughter who's 8 now and the cliche that time goes by quickly is so true. There's a tight rope and balance you will always walk, and balance between work and family. But if you have the ability to spend more time with your family now you won't regret it. Time truly does fly mate.

[@keith6360]

I don't mind a patreon but also have guest as Matt always have interesting guest on. A "donation" for every question for the guest would get viewers engaged, I think.

[@emixmim]

The Seinfeld story was awesome! LA is a cool city when you're visiting, not quite the same if you live there.

[@AAS-gw5mb]

I’d say it’s better if you live here countless canyon roads, so much car culture. Probably very biased as I’ve lived here my whole live.

[@davidsnuggs7623]

Great podcast ❤

[@neddy781]

As far as the driving road comparisons between the UK and California go. The weather is a huge one. Also the shear size of CA compared to the UK, it's almost double the size. A lot more places to drive.

[@kvb263]

You’ve made it when you’re in a car getting coffee with Jerry Seinfeld and the cameras aren’t even rolling. Wild stuff

[@fit_pharmd4830]

I’m totally with you Sam, do what’s in your heart, really as scary as it may be if you don’t you’ll regret it down the line when you’re truly unable to due to reasons beyond your control.

[@ogdenwernstom4085]

Lol "They're my people? $50 smoothies!"

[@johnnyboyj1929]

Delighted you got to live your best life in L.A.

[@maveric585]

Smoking tire episode was great I hope all you guys can do a episode together

[@adrianmunteanu4827]

Affordable cars sounds nice. Really want to see Tony in a Dacia :)

[@kana4114]

“They’re my people” 😆

[@ianmason3040]

Hyundai Tucson - yes they've changed a lot, much more upmarket (especially on the inside), price has gone up accordingly. Think I paid £14'700 for a brand new Sedona in 2004 (it was £13700 without the in-car cinema system). It was for towing with that 2.7 tdi lump 👍

[@Bigdom1505]

Can someone just clarify for me that Sam was indeed getting a coffee In a car on a Sunday morning 😂. Amazing experience for you.

[@fit_pharmd4830]

Third comment but here I am giving you advice to follow your heart and I’m scared to do so myself and feel stuck due to financial reasons. Even still good things are coming your way just as they are coming my way as well.

[@craiganderson8569]

When does the Spike's Car Radio episode come out?

[@Whatabigone]

Same , I was in a car with Jerry . Tony’s look on his face , I don’t care 🤷‍♂️👍

[@JJ-vy2rh]

It was out the same time as friends, it's big in Australia, doesn't jerry have a 150 or so cars in new York

[@Ducatista189]

LA - fun place to visit, but it really is not feasible to live there nowadays. You aren't factoring in cost of living there. Perhaps, since you live in London, you could feasibly make it work, but I still think the healthcare, taxes and keeping up with joneses lifestyle will have you back in the UK within a year.

[@obsidian....]

34:00 There are only 151 of those made. That 356A is worth $1-2 million 🤣

[@Mancamp1000]

The word is tech-savvy

[@marky9117]

Not sure about Seinfeld dating a 17 year old when he was 38. 👀 But cool you met him if you’re a fan.

[@pistonburner6448]

The key to jet lag is pre-adjusting before the trip, slowly, for at least 5 days (as much as you can do while meeting your obligations). Then adjust by staying up later, not trying too hard to get up early to adjust (at least if you're the type to not manage to get up early every time, thus ruining the attempt). Even skipping a whole night's sleep is easier than spending a week trying to inch your day backwards. For a huge jump back East it's best to just stay awake all night, arrange a day without meetings or appointments where you can go to sleep in the afternoon (or as late as you can after having skipped the last night's sleep), then after you wake up as late as possible but that's still probably around 2-3 o'clock at latest, the next day stretch it to the full day and go to sleep at a 'normal' time like eg. 21:00.

[@BarryMakariou]

Carmine Red is now a pts colour looks incredible

[@martynhickinson7949]

Hyundai Tucson, Kia Sportage both decent cars for family duties.

[@leotac5737]

You might not have ideal roads in the UK, but at least the cars are cheap. Better say - cheaper than some EU countries.

[@Glorifire]

8:43 "proprietary"?

[@NathanCasey]

Please try a Skoda Kodiaq!!

[@Kxji]

Jerry blaming Sam 🤣🤣

[@NISSANSKYLINEGTRBNR]

⭐⭐⭐

[@pamelaramdat8321]

Yes, Matt owns the building or at least his bank does, its his either way.

[@johnnyboy1586]

Sam has hit the big time rubbing shoulders with gerry seinfield 😊

[@pamelaramdat8321]

Yeah Jerry wont sweat that ticket

[@riggs1590]

I miss the Alfa 4c and Porsche cayman days.

[@maxvinzi]

I’d go for the patreon.

[@benpenagonzales6014]

USP - unique selling proposition

[@pamelaramdat8321]

Bring back the Patron!!

[@timothysmith7478]

Who knew Porsche had flappy pedals way back then

[@jamespugh]

Lol getting jerry 🤣 a speeding ticket. See his collection is big one bigger ones in usa. Cant see the main channels video why watch u bc not just here car collection or here new car. Also as budget friendly car episode be cool .

[@HeavyWeight-qx8ou]

4 college kids were recently killed by a speeding 22-year-old BMW driver who lost control of his car on PCH in Malibu. They are really serious about enforcement now. You can blame that BMW driver for the ticket.

[@karlkjj]

I think Vw would be the biggest car culture …..

[@NewHandle_]

F**k Patron, it's hard enough with the cost of living give us a break mate 😂😂

[@leecodling]

Tiny is right about the ford community here in the uk.

[@hdsg8361]

Class Sam just class 🥳

[@fit_pharmd4830]

Sam, you’re getting older mate and you’re coming into your own. You sound like me, I just turned 40 and I really don’t like what I do, I went to school to be a Pharmacist and have been doing it for 11 years and it’s just not for me, so I’m trying to change things up myself. No ides of what I’m going to do for $ bc I’m in such debt from school loans, I live at home at 40 like most of my generation but my point is as we get older we just stop caring about what others think or want from us and we do what we want and it always ends up better for our mental health and family even if the change is hard or takes longer than expected.

[@pistonburner6448]

6:35 Matt's very rich father probably owns the building

[@venom5809]

Where do you think Matt’s dad’s money is going when he dies.

[@pistonburner6448]

@@venom5809 How do you know which one dies first?

[@rsomcio]

first

[@1993j]

BMW 'car culture' is bigger than Porsche by far, just because it's more accessible, even if it's not as civilised 😂 I guess Sam's take on it is tainted by only going to 1%'er car meets...

[@fredde8851]

Where is the video with jerry ?

[@rsomcio]

IP? intellectual property?

[@GazMoby]

Proprietary tech

[@KarlBuckley-bw3vc]

Please Sam I emplore you.. don't do the American accent 😅

[@borjastick]

If you change things up a little Sam be careful not to make content that looks and sounds like 'Me me me me me'. I like your mainstream car launch or testing new models etc and sometimes your other stuff can be a little bit too much of Sam's voice and not enough general content about what viewers might like. That's not to say I want you to be more like Shmee please God NO!

[@michaelroche4563]

What about some words other than ‘literally’

[@michaelroche4563]

38:43 - 38:56 😭

[@user-cw5kr3py8p]

This has to be the most boring podcast I've ever listened to .

[@tippylosojos]

LA is blah, try San Diego instead or Northern California.

[@MarcSob22]

LA best place?! What a joke mate, nothing in usa it's not even good enough to be among the best, it's even worse to be the best

[@Druezy]

As a place to vacation it is understandable how someone from the UK enjoys it, it is all fun here mate!

[@GazMoby]

Two average episodes in a row. Hopefully next week's won't be so "meh".

[@TT-rw3wz]

Odd comment

[@GazMoby]

@@TT-rw3wz how is it an odd comment if I found the last two episodes average and then say I found them average? If I like an episode I comment "very enjoyable". Does that make sense or do I need to draw it in crayon for you to understand?

[@TT-rw3wz]

​@@GazMoby Odd bloke

[@alastairwhite1607]

Get some friends Garry

[@GazMoby]

@@alastairwhite1607 why is it if you express an opinion that isn't "your amazing, fabulous episode" you get slagged off with childish comments. Grow up!!

[@sp00ky1969]

“Liquid cooled”? They’re all cooled by liquid… either water or oil. 🫣
