Damien Smith contacted us just before heading on our Southern trip and requested we interview his Uncle Mick following a bout of illness. It was meant to be as the plan was to travel straight through Heathcote so we were able to record these awesome members of a diehard trucking family. Bruce was amazed at his surroundings as he was picked up in a 1943 Ford Jailbar and taken to Mick's parents house that was over 100 years old to sit and record Micks golden era trucking history with Damien by his side.  Join the Club | Copy Southbound

In the run-up to the Spanish Grand Prix, Alpine confirmed it had hired former Benetton and Renault Formula 1 team boss Flavio Briatore as an executive advisor. Briatore ran the Enstone team for two spells under different guises, leading them to several titles along the way, but he exited amid scandal following the 2008 Singapore Grand Prix race-fixing incident. So why is he back now? And what does it mean for Alpine in the long- and short-term? Answering those questions are Edd Straw, Scott Mitchell-Malm and 'Team Enstone' specialist Damien Smith, author of the recent book 'Benetton: Rebels of Formula 1'.Want extra podcast content?

Unconventional and controversial, in the 1990s the Benetton Formula 1 team rose through the ranks to challenge the big names of Williams, Ferrari and McLaren. After black flags, disqualifications, a pitlane inferno and political manoeuvring, the tumultuous 1994 season ended with Michael Schumacher sealing the World Championship title for Benetton, after a controversial clash with Damon Hill in the season finale in Australia. Our speaker is Damien Smith, former editor of MotorSport magazine and author of the new and authoritative history of this most colourful of Formula 1 teams. Damien is joined by senior Benetton engineer Pat Symonds and other former team personnel.

The fourth episode in our new series of Top 10's takes a look at the greatest F1 wet weather drives. Every great grand prix driver has at least one rite of passage in adverse weather, often several. For today's podcast Kevin Turner has limited each driver to one appearance on the list, and the distinction to remember is that we're not talking about which drivers perform best when the heavens open, but specific wet weather drives.   To discuss, we're joined by motorsport journalist Damien Smith and your host Martyn Lee.

This week's podcast look at the 26 drivers who took a single world championship F1 win. Some of those drivers should have won many more races, while others got on the list through good fortune or an outstanding performance. Here is our pick of F1's top 10 one-hit wonders, based on their drives to victory, the circumstances of that success and their overall careers. We're excluding those drivers who are still active in F1, so no Pierre Gasly, Esteban Ocon, Carlos Sainz or George Russell just yet. Joining us on the podcast to discuss the topic are Kevin Turner, Damien Smith and Haydn Cobb. Your host is Martyn Lee.

The second episode in our new series of Top 10's takes a look at the greatest F1 drivers who couldn't clinch a drivers title. Chief Editor Kevin Turner leads the way, joined by motorsport journalist Damien Smith and Autosport.com Editor Haydn Cobb.  The show is hosted by Martyn Lee.

How did Mercedes turn its season around? And what did Red Bull gain — or lose — from breaching the cost cap?Mark Hughes, Chris Medland and Damien Smith form our expert panel to look back over the year and the crucial moments that shaped the 2022 season.As well as the championship battle, they discuss the legacy of Sebastian Vettel and Daniel Ricciardo as the drivers leave the grid for 2023, look back over the fortunes and futures of all ten teams.

Photography plays a major role in my life and the lives of others. Talking to other photographers and artist offers so much perspective as to how the world and the art form is interpreted in so many ways. This episode with Damien Smith, founder of the Art of Imagery https://www.facebook.com/imageryisart/ https://www.instagram.com/theartofimagery/?hl=en discusses how he uses photography as an artistic expression and how he helps others find the confidence within themselves. His style ranges from nude, landscape, and abandoned photography.  We talk about the magical moments created through sunrises and sunsets and how to harness that energy by being present.

Welcome mountain bikers.Sometimes things don’t always go as planned. I was lucky to spend an hour and a half with Chris Conroy and Steve Hoogendorn at the sea otter classic to knock out an Inside Line. if those names aren’t familiar to you, they’re the owners of Yeti Cycles.We posted up at a Sea Otter campsite on a gorgeous, sunny day to record the episode. Away from the crowds and chaos of the venue, without any shade, we battled sweaty armpits, were interrupted by various aircraft and walked away with a little sunburn. Despite the struggles, we had a great conversation about the Yeti brand, past, present and future.Well, it turns out that technology and blazing California sunshine don’t always get along. About 45 minutes in to our interview, the electronics started acting up, and by 55-minutes in, the laptop said, “this is too hot, i’m done,” and cut off the last 20 minutes of our conversation. Gutted.Fast forward a few weeks and an aircraft that may have been background noise and a cause of frustration in the original interview, had transported me to Golden, Colorado, and the home of Yeti Cycles.Conroy and Hoog graciously stepped up for Inside Line 2.0. While there, I was able to talk with Sarah Rawley about women in mountain biking, as well as Damien Smith, who is responsible for some of the iconic racer selections on the Yeti team over the years.I’d like to give a big thanks to Jenson USA for supporting The Inside Line. Jenson is a Yeti Cycles dealer and a great place to shop online for all things cycling-related.

Hit up maxxis.com and make sure you have some fresh rubber this riding season.Last but not least, thank you listeners. Without your stoke, what’s the point? Enjoy the show. -gordo

The Precious Lives team will attempt to reach all corners of Milwaukee to harness diverse energies to combat the problem of gun violence. Performers will bring their stories of gun violence directly into churches, schools, offices and so on. We’ve tried this a few times already: most notably to a sold out audience at the Pabst Theater over the summer and recently at an event at the Rotary Club. We’re aiming to do 25 shows throughout 2017. For this episode, Executive Producer Brad Lichtenstein talks with a few of the performers, Khary Penebaker and Damien Smith, about their experience sharing their stories, how their experiences change based on the crowd and what they hope different audiences will gain from the live shows.

Most of you will know Simon Taylor as the man behind Motor Sport's 'Lunch With' series – one that has included 125 lunch-based interviews with the sport's biggest names. He first sat down for 'Lunch With' in June 2006. The subject was Max Mosley and the pair ate at the Café de Paris where the then-president of the FIA ate "a tiny lobster mousse, green salad, still water and an espresso". As the issues rolled on Simon had lunch with a huge array of names from Tyler Alexander to Alex Wurz via Ross Brawn, Richard Petty, Ron Dennis and the late Chris Amon.  After 10 years of lunches Simon has decided to call it a day (he'll still write for Motor Sport, but he's stepping down from Lunch With) and to honour what Damien Smith describes as "the greatest series of interviews in motor sport publishing" we decided to sit the man himself down for a bite to eat. Want to know what all these big names were like to interview? Enjoy.   See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Star guests included Le Mans winners Allan McNish, Tom Kristensen and Audi factory team engineers Howden ‘H’ Haynes and Leena Gade.

Welcome to another Motor Sport audio podcast. This month Christian Horner very kindly gave us an hour of his time (something that's almost unheard of for a team principal in the middle of the Formula 1 season!) and we made the trip up to Red Bull Racing in Milton Keynes. The journey wasn't without dramas... Myself, the editor Damien Smith and all the recording equipment set off from head office in Chelsea in plenty of time in his trusty BMW. However, within a mile of traffic the car was hot, very, very hot in fact and it soon came to a grinding halt. After a brief panicked phone call to my brother Will, I deserted the editor at Shepherd's Bush and ran to my brother's car (a surprisingly brilliant Ford Mondeo ST220) that he very kindly lent me. So, if you're wondering why Damien doesn't say too much in the podcast, it's because he was on a tow truck – with his car. The recording thankfully went according to plan and I hope you enjoy what Christian has to say. Thank you for the car Will, and thank you...

Welcome to another Motor Sport audio podcast with Nigel Roebuck, Damien Smith, Rob Widdows and Ed Foster. Even though there's a gap in Formula 1 racing at the moment there's still plenty to talk about...
