The show

A car podcast that's mostly not about cars.

Smith and Sniff is what happens when two long-time friends meet up to record a podcast and somehow keep arriving at a vague consensus that yes, this is a car show.

Each Monday, Jonny and Richard catch up on the week — a new car they've driven, something strange spotted in a car park, a listener email that demands attention, an album cover with an unexpected motoring detail. On Fridays they do it again, but this time answering audience questions, in a spin-off called On The Other Side Of Things.
