Podcast appearances and mentions of morris marina

The Rover SD1 was so nearly a game changer. It was an amazing follow-up to the Triumph 2000 & Rover P6, but it caused so much damage to the Rover name. It was a "space age" shape that looked like it had come right off the set of Blakes 7. And this came out of old, stodgy, British Leyland - the company that had brought us the Morris Marina and Austin Allegro! So why was this amazing car do so badly?

It's a long way from there to there. Stuck in the middle, we have emotional pain, but we can also have presence. A comfort to the pain of now. They wanted some relief. It wasn't so much the highs and lows of a roller coaster; it was more like dragging a heavy sack of struggle around with them. For others, it is like a dark shadow that has come over them. Engulfing them, creeping with unending persistence over the little light they have within them. How would you describe emotional pain? Emotional pain. It's different from physical pain. You can tell the doctor that you have pain in your right leg and they can offer medical suggestions – physiotherapy, exercises, medication. But what exercise can heal a broken heart? What medication can resolve anger and resentment simmering in the soul? There is physical pain and there is emotional pain and they seem to intertwine themselves where one feeds the other. My back pain can resource my feelings of misery. A merry heart can be like a medicine to the body. Proverbs 17:22 Have you noticed the intertwining between body and soul? Are we there yet? Christmas day and it was a two and half hour drive between my childhood home and my grandparents' home. Two and half hours of monotony and boredom. Weaving around corners and up and over hills. Passing through towns, I would look out and see children playing on new bikes they had got that morning. Groan. My new red bike was back at home. I had a snatched look and a smell of that new bike, and then we were in the car for that long drive. I watched those children with envy. My grandparents' home was not my home. It was nice to see them. Get slightly spoiled and experience life in another home different to my own. But it was not my home. Groan. But in a couple of days, we were back in that old Morris Marina and on the road. There was a quiet excitement and hope to return home. Home, that's where I long to be. Or as Bono would sing ‘I still haven't found what I'm looking for.' What is emotional pain? Emotional pain is rooted in that experience of not being there yet. All of those feelings of anger, grief, loss, sadness, loneliness all have the smell of knowing this isn't what we were meant for. We were created for something we have never fully experienced. A garden of intimacy, delight, joy and peace. I still have wafts of it in the relationships I have. I also still see it in this creative glory box God has made for me. Creation, like myself, groans for what once was. We know that the whole creation has been groaning together as it suffers together the pains of labor,  and not only the creation, but we ourselves. Romans 8:22-23a  That emotional pain is the groan. I know something better. It's unconscious, but I'm not there yet. There is also a groaning for what will be. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. Death will be no more; mourning and crying and pain will be no more, for the first things have passed away.' Revelation 21:4 I long for a fullness of presence like a deer pants for water when the sun is beating down hard. Archetype There is a kind of archetype in all of us. What's an archetype? In Jungian theory it's a primitive mental image inherited from the earliest human ancestors, and supposed to be present in the collective unconscious. Oxford reference It's a simple thread of knowing that has been passed down through generations. Deeply unconscious to my awareness I still long for something of another world. If we find ourselves with a desire that nothing in this world can satisfy, the most probable explanation is that we were made for another world. C. S. Lewis Listening to groans So what do we do with the emotional pain? The most common medication is self comfort. We self soothe to the point of addiction. The obvious addictions are drugs, alcohol, pornography, sex, gambling, shopping, gaming, eating, etc The not so obvious are those of demanding control, religious observance, success (however you define that), hobbies etc But in every self soothing effort I have tried, it feels like there is a bungee cord wrapped around me. One of those huge rubber bands that wants to pull me back to something better, something that I can't be in control of. I'm not against self soothing. I think it's important to have some practices that bring comfort to the pain of living in this state of ‘not there yet.' But self-soothing must always bring me closer in a relationship to the one I'm going to spend eternity with. That bungee cord pulls me back to God and maybe a few safe others that will listen with compassion to my groans. They won't F.A.S.S. me (Fix, Advice, Save, or Set straight). Instead, there will be a warm embracing community. Thank you, that helped. For the struggler in the valley of emotional pain, they simply want to be heard. They don't want criticism, or more burdens added. After being listened to well, the most common response is ‘Thank you, that helped.' It may not have taken the emotional pain away, instead it simply says that you're not alone in it. Quotes to consider Acceptance is not our mode nearly as much as aggression, resistance, fight, or flight. None of them achieve the deep and lasting results of true acceptance and peaceful surrender. Richard Rohr. Breathing Under Water: Spirituality and the Twelve Steps You cannot heal what you do not first acknowledge. Richard Rohr. Breathing Under Water: Spirituality and the Twelve Steps Emotional pain always results when life's experiences go beyond the answers we already have. Dig deeper for more wisdom or go on hurting. David Riddell Those who do not turn to face their pain are prone to impose it. Terrence Real, I Don't Want To Talk About It Redeemed pain is more impressive to me than removed pain. Phillip Yancey Home is where I want to be Pick me up and turn me roundI feel numb, burn with a weak heart I guess I must be having fun The less we say about it the better Make it up as we go along Feet on the ground Head in the sky It's ok I know nothing's wrong… nothing Hi yo I got plenty of time Hi yo you got light in your eyes And you're standing here beside me I love the passing of time Never for money Always for love Cover up + say goodnight… say goodnight Home, is where I want to be But I guess I'm already there I come home, she lifted up her wings Guess that this must be the place I can't tell one from another Did I find you, or you find me? There was a time before we were born If someone asks, this where I'll be where I'll be Hi yo we drift in and out Hi yo sing into my mouth Out of all those kinds of people You got a face with a view I'm just an animal looking for a home Share the same space for a minute or two And you love me till my heart stops Love me till I'm dead Eyes that light up, eyes look through you Cover up the blank spots Hit me on the head ah ooh Shawn Colvin – This Must Be The Place (Naive Melody) Questions to answer Can you think of an experience where you sensed you were not there yet? What would ‘Home' feel like for you? Who has offered to you that sense of deep listening?   Further reading Barry Pearman Photo by Nathaniel Flowers on Unsplash   Get a weekly email full of help for your Mental Health and Spiritual formation * indicates required Email Address *   First Name * Last Name *     Read this further here FOLLOW ME!

I denne uges afsnit dykker Bilradio ned i de sjove modeller, der blev solgt for 50 år siden, danskernes ændrede præferencer og den eksplosive stigning i salget af biler.Tidligere var valget af en ny bil en simpel affære. Tilbage i 1972 kunne man forvente at finde Volkswagen-forhandleren klar med den gamle boble, Volvo-sælgeren havde en 142 eller 144 til prøvekørsel, og den lokale Morris-forhandler stod klar med nøglerne til en Morris Marina for at overbevise kunderne om dens kvaliteter. Disse tre nu for længst udgåede modeller dominerede faktisk salget for 50 år siden. Dengang var Tesla ikke engang på tegnebrættet, og Elon Musk var stadig i ble.Men det handler også om nutiden. Er den perfekte plug-in-hybrid måske landet? Den nye generation af Mercedes GLC, en mellemstor og yderst populær SUV, er aktuel lige nu. Den har et kæmpemæssigt batteri, en imponerende rækkevidde på over 100 km på ren el og evnen til at lade op lynhurtigt som en ægte elbil. Og selv testbilen, som Bilradio har haft fingrene i, har en dieselmotor, der sikrer, at den kan køre langt på literen, når strømmen engang slipper op.Til sidst i programmet er der lytterspørgsmål.

Sådan kan det gå når humøret er højt, og måske der er minus point på vej – Lyt med, det er en festlig leg - Glædelig Jul!

Os hemos preparado una selección de coches con mala fama. Unos, porque eran verdaderamente un peligro. Otros tenían una fiabilidad muy deficiente… y soy bueno. Algunos no llegaron en el momento oportuno. Y los hay feos con ganas…o poco atractivos. Por una u otra causa estos 10 coches tienen muy mala fama… pero, ¿es merecida? En el mundo del automóvil la fama, la notoriedad que se dice ahora es muy importante. Muy importante si es buena, pero aún más importante si es mala. Porque te lo digo desde ya: Si un coche consigue tener muy mala fama, sus posibilidades de triunfar disminuyen considerablemente… hasta llegar a cero. 1. Ford Edsel (1958): Digno de estudio. Este caso se estudia en las escuelas de negocios, sencillamente, porque hacerlo tan mal no es fácil. Y es que se hizo todo mal. 2. Chevrolet Corvair (1959): Buena idea, mal hecha. La idea era buena, el coche no era feo, al contrario, a mí me parece muy bonito y desde luego era distinto. Pero para un conductor medio americano, el Corvair con su pesado motor colocado detrás no era un coche difícil de conducir sino un coche decididamente peligroso. 3. Citroën SM (1970): ¿Merece estar aquí? Me ha dolido meter al SM en esta lista. La clave es esta, ¿merece un icono de este calibre estar en esta lista? 4. Morris Marina (1973): Tecnología de 1948. Lo curioso es que, a pesar de su estética y de la cantidad de problemas que daba, tuvo cierto éxito. Un detalle: Montaba la mecánica del Minor de 1948, tecnología a la última. 5. AMC Pacer (1975): Demasiado avanzado. Ya os lo adelanto: Tengo intención de dedicar un monográfico de coches incomprendidos a este Pacer que, ¡ya sé lo que me vais a decir muchos! A mí me encanta y me parece precioso… 6. Aston Martin Lagonda (1976): ¿Fiabilidad? ¿Qué es eso? Hay coches que dan problemas y hay coches que son una pesadilla para sus propietarios… este Lagonda es el líder de este segundo grupo. ¿Merece estar en esta lista de coches con mala fama? ¡¡¡Siiiiii!!! 7. Yugo GV (1980): Pedir peras al olmo. Aparte de algunos motores que explotaron, de sus cortocircuitos y de cosas que se le caían… el coche era de lo mejorcito que se fabricaba en el Este de Europa y se vendía en los EE.UU. de Norteamérica a precio de risa. 8. Maserati Biturbo (1981): En carnes propias. ¡Como un coche con tanto encanto podía ser tan malo! La verdad es que cuando el coche iba bien, que era casi nunca, pues tenía su encanto. 9. Alfa Romeo Arna (1984): La idea era buena. Pero solo la idea. Alfa Romeo y Nissan se asociaron para hacer un coche con el encanto y la capacidad de seducción de un Alfa y la fiabilidad y la calidad de un Nissan. Pero algo salió mal y fue al revés. 10. Chrysler TC by Maserati (1988): ¡No te compliques! Os voy a leer la opinión de una revista del motor norteamericana líder en su momento que decía, lo leo: “El TC de Chrysler y Maserati es poco más que un Chrysler fabricado en Milán con algunos componentes caros y algo de cosmética, algo así como una abuela arrugada vestida con zapatillas de deporte y pantalones cortos ajustados”. Conclusión. Como veis no todos, pero sí la mayoría se merecen esa mala fama… y hay más que la merecen…

Welcome to Overdrive, a program where we wander through the world of motoring and transport. I’m David Brown And in this program, we look at news stories with including: 1. 2019 Jaguar I-Pace revealed: Brits put Tesla on alert 2. California's new rules turn self-driving cars into remotely operated, road-going drones 3. Tesla’s new ‘light-years ahead’ navigation and maps engine is ‘almost done’, says Elon Musk 4. Trump admin passes rule requiring sounds in 'quiet cars' by 2020 5. Nearly a third of Uber drivers are actually losing money, study shows I reflect on the size of some information screens in cars and what sort of information can we get. I have just got to drive the BMW X3 SUV and the information systems and its ability to inform is a good example of how this area of vehicles is improving. We road test the Mercedes E400 Cabriolet – Elegant motoring And in our panel discussion with Errol Smith and Brian Smith we take a chirpy look at some quirky news stories including: 1. You can now buy James Bond's personal Aston Martin/The mini bike from "Dumb and Dumber" is up for sale/ Car on which Jeremy Clarkson dropped a piano is for sale, mid-restoration (it's a Morris Marina) 2. Will Tesla Model S be a "collector car"? Tuckers are, but Kaisers aren't: why? 3. Kris Singh's Aston Martin Valkyrie will have actual moon dust in the paint

#163 We put the case for cars that usually get a lot of flack, to play “Cars I Would Defend”. Which cars are in the dock? and which are laughed out of court? What car would you choose to defend? Plus Sniff Petrol goes F1 testing.
