He's saying we must be bored to tears with him after an hour and 22 minutes, I'm sitting here thinking "Awww that flew by, feels like it was just getting started!" Cheers Matt, Zack, Chris, and Ed :)
@Truth Teller This podcast is a bit different from other podcasts. A lot of the guests that are on Matt is friends with. Matt and Chris used to host /Drive together back in the day. They're friends who are well acquainted enough to have this more natural type of conversation. If you want a Chris Harris interview, I suggest trying somewhere else.
I'll never get tired of listening to Chris Harris & I listen to EVERY Collecting Cars podcast. A 6 hour show with Chris Harris, would still not be enough. He's 1 of the very best people in the car world.
@@theoneandonlybosable For sure. Harris's comment that nobody places value on rigor hurt tbh. Camisa's films are a masterpiece and they get the recognition
The "Holy Trinity" video is still one of my favorite pieces of motoring content, the fun that was had in those cars resonated right off the screen, fucking brilliant to this day.
His pieces with Niel are so good at conveying the atmosphere of actually being where they are. Such a great era of car content that was, back when releases meant something
@@dj_laundry_list Camisa knows marginally more automotive history, but Harris has vastly more engineering and vehicle dynamics knowledge. His well-known and well-decorated racing experience is a phenomenal part of Chris' knowledge.
I know Chris is a busy guy but I wish he could be a constant on the show lol. He has such a level headed perspective. Glad to hear he’s going to have some new videos on the collecting cars channel
'The Farah's family's tentacle reach far and wide' :D Harris has a great sense of humour too. But let's stop comparing shall we? If any of us would be compared against Harris where would be be on the scale? I enjoy watching both Chris Harris and Farah and I'm glad they are good colleagues / friends.
Chris Harris is great. I remember he was getting lots of hate for joining Top Gear at first, little did they know that he had more knowledge about cars than all 3 former cohost put together
Chris Harris is the definition of a true car enthusiast. His enthusiasm is unmistakable for the subject. For a fellow car nut it is pure joy to hear someone get excited about the same shite as I tend to. I went back to watch since Chris doesnt do many interviews and I was once again struck with Matts elitist attitude. Ever wonder why people like Chris have the following...just take a quick look at their character and how they treat others. Its not onky because he can stick a car sideways within an inch of its life at any given time. I always want to like Matt and never comment of much if anything, but just cant do the elitist and proud, yet guilty, yet very proud bit. Anytime any social topic arises Matt must show how blue he believes his blood is. This is very unbecoming kind sir. It appears to make his guests feel very uncomfortable, even Chris seems awkward at several points in this interview. My unsolicited advice for Matt would be to try and be like his friend Mr. Harris and just be yourself! Be humble, Dont try and be your father or anyone else. Just be the car nut that you can be and drop the wannabe sophisticated, liberal bit. When you do the content can be quite good. When you throw your nose in the air and look down on others it can be borderline nauseating yet laughable if you know what I mean. We have all known someone like this and it comes off as very poser to thw rest of us. Shit why did I even watch this ohhhh yes because listening to Chris talk proper car nerdery outweighs all. Also since Im apparently ranting, which I NEVER do especially anywhere online, maybe try and get Zach more involved the conversation instead of having him bring you drinks. Raising others around you to greater heights is very rewarding if you dont practice it regularly. Not sure if Im the only one thinking this but Ive been wanting to say that for about 10 years and have always used restraint. I dont intend my comments to be hateful, quite the opposite.
Hilarious how Harris is ripping dealerships and slagging off the business model with over priced cars and coffee. Yet Ed Lovett is sat there thinking ‘shit, that’s how i got to where I am today through my father’.....🤣
@Mr Calcium For that reason I have zero value in anything Chris Harris says. He lives in a Ferrari and Porsche world, and he is simply so far gone from reality that he can't objectively compare or evaluate cars we actually own and drive. Asking Chris which car I should get next is like asking the Queen of England what's the best selection on the Dollar Menu at McDonald's. Fucking clueless.
Seriously dude? Chris Harris owns old Peugeot and Citroens and I’ve heard him go on and on about how great the Mk1 Focus was! He drives good enough that Ferrari will toss him the keys, but he’s one of us!
Cleeter really moving up in the world, doing Top Gear collabs... Crazy, when you think how he started. Him and the MCM guys still blow my mind, just from seeing where they are nowadays.
I don´t know why this kind of content doesn´t have more views, this is top notch quality and the experiences this guys share are awsome. Congrats for the show, I´ve just discovered it and I´m a fan now.
MATT : Please practice active listening. Continually talking over your guests becomes tiresome. Let your guest makes their point. Jumping in with "but listen to my similar experience" before they get a chance to tell their story is a rooky mistake. I had to stop listening. Not trolling. Just constructive criticism which of course can be ignored.
So glad to hear y'all are killing on the podcast space. Been enjoying this podcast for years and sounds like you've really blown up in the past 12-16 months. Cheers!
Always a fan, and always great when Chris Harris is on! Plus this is least boring watch conversation ever because of the practicality and stories behind what you’d choose. Cheers!
@@TheSmokingTirePodcast Zack, we gotta see some of that driftin of yours that Chris was praisin. To get praise from Lord Driftsalot himself means that you're definitely doin somethin right. This was a Fan-fuckin-tastic podcast. 🤘🏼
I rewatch the "Holy trinity" fairly regularly. Pure motoring gold. Epitomises the connection between a car nut and cars, albeit right at the top end of the spectrum.
I have a black 1998 M3 coupe that has been mentioned on TST about half a dozen times. I'm the dude that swapped the head over the weekend at the 3rd Midwest Festival of #Gridlife at GingerMan. Holding on to that car over Covid has been difficult with all the offers being thrown. It's a life goal to tell my story of the weekend on this podcast.
Agree and recommend! I won on CC, a 2002 BMW M3 convertible smg sight unseen. Had 150 photos and it was exactly as described. No surprises. £8500, so happy!
I could see a 3 or 4 part interview like this spread out over a few months as these guys recall stories from over the years for posterity before they forget them all. Throw in Lieberman, Cammisa, Pobst….oh the stories they could tell.
I’d love to see Chris go on a drift adventure learning the history in Japan then travel to several tracks to compete against amateurs possibly graduating to professional drifter status and getting a championship.
CH is such a pleasure, I could hear his fun stories and witty comments for hours. On a side note do you really mod your Grand Seikos? I can understand doing it on Seiko 5’s but GS’s is tough to swallow…
If Chris Harris or Matt wants to drive, I have a 24 hours of lemons 1990 Escort that finishes in the top 5 of its class all the time. You two always have a seat! It is a legit big go kart.
Isn't that company in texas that matt bashes at 49:00 the same company that let matt have a go in a manual converted scuderia?? and didn't matt love that car? what did i miss?
Awesome Episode. 1:15:39 People are still complaining about Roadkill not being free on RUclips FOUR+ years after the fact and about spending $4/mo to stream content on MTOD and blaming the RK guys for leaving YT lol that was corporate.
I’ll watch from time to time now. I know your provide a lot of value already. Bro, you’ve been bringing me value for years lol. Keep it coming. My fault for not watching sooner!
Holy shit up this fast? Damn. Been waiting for a followup Chris Harris episode for a long time. Crossover episode too if you like the collecting cars podcast as I do too. NICE!
He's saying we must be bored to tears with him after an hour and 22 minutes, I'm sitting here thinking "Awww that flew by, feels like it was just getting started!" Cheers Matt, Zack, Chris, and Ed :)
Time to wait another 2 years....
Same here
@@tomstech4390 I'd love another recap of Zach's test of a Razer's structural rigidity. Cheers gents.
Agree, I'd easily listen to another two hours with Chris!
Same. My main complaint is the podcast was too short.
It's been a while since Chris Harris was on the podcast! Very exciting!
Ok. What have I’ve been missing out on
@Truth Teller I mean that often happens in conversation. It's not good. Ideally you let the person finish. However, it's human.
@Truth Teller This podcast is a bit different from other podcasts. A lot of the guests that are on Matt is friends with. Matt and Chris used to host /Drive together back in the day. They're friends who are well acquainted enough to have this more natural type of conversation. If you want a Chris Harris interview, I suggest trying somewhere else.
Chris was on Fueling Around podcast back in May 2021, hosted by Jason Plato. Certainly worth a listen.
I'll never get tired of listening to Chris Harris & I listen to EVERY Collecting Cars podcast.
A 6 hour show with Chris Harris, would still not be enough. He's 1 of the very best people in the car world.
Chris Harris is one of the best auto journalists of all time. Great show.
Right now him and Camissa stand kinda unparalleled
@@theoneandonlybosable For sure. Harris's comment that nobody places value on rigor hurt tbh. Camisa's films are a masterpiece and they get the recognition
For me its Chris Harris, Jason Cammisa, and Carlos Lago.
@@BoomtowndogsYa that one did hurt.

The last month has been insane guest wise love to see it
Podcast begins at 10:30
The sponsor plug is just worse even more so in the beginning
Can always rely on Chris for the most car nerd conversations. Love it
How does he compare to Jason Cammisa, in terms of nerdiness?
@@dj_laundry_list Camisa knows marginally more automotive history, but Harris has vastly more engineering and vehicle dynamics knowledge. His well-known and well-decorated racing experience is a phenomenal part of Chris' knowledge.
Cammisa has WAY more engineering knowledge than Chris, and he knows how to fix it. Chris can drive circles around all of them though, no doubt
THIIISSSS is what the people have been waiting for guys, bravooo!
I know Chris is a busy guy but I wish he could be a constant on the show lol. He has such a level headed perspective. Glad to hear he’s going to have some new videos on the collecting cars channel
I like how Chris Harris is Farah to the power of infinity in every category professionally and is also way more humble.
The "I wore this watch for you" thing was so cringe. Jesus christ
@@mornadu he's the worst
Understatement of the year.
'The Farah's family's tentacle reach far and wide' :D Harris has a great sense of humour too. But let's stop comparing shall we? If any of us would be compared against Harris where would be be on the scale? I enjoy watching both Chris Harris and Farah and I'm glad they are good colleagues / friends.
@@TheChannel1978 I'd agree with you if Farah wasn't so obnoxiously condemnatory himself.
Chris Harris is great. I remember he was getting lots of hate for joining Top Gear at first, little did they know that he had more knowledge about cars than all 3 former cohost put together
Amen

#TrueStory
Imagine if Matt got Chris Harris, Jason Cammisa and Jonny Lieberman all together in one podcast for 3-4 hours?
I'd add in Doug, that would be chaos. TST - I would pay for that, and a lot.
TAKE MY MONEY, MATT!!!!
@@carsontrack7351 Doug and Jonny would be very interesting
Hell just Cammisa and Harris would be incredible. I get the feeling they’d either be sixty-nining or in a fist fight by the end of the show.
Best episode or fist fight 😀
Chris Harris is my all time favorite guest! Besides your dad!
Jason Cammisa is way more down to earth
@Mr Calcium For that reason I have zero value in anything Chris Harris says.

Never in a million years did I think Chris Harris would be doing content with Cleetus! How awesome is that?!?

Glad to have you!
Chris doing the American accent was comedy gold.
Love a Harris podcast. I miss On Cars so much, but he is the best part of current Top Gear for sure.
Got to love how much and often Chris is acknowledging Zack.
Great stuff. This should have been a 3 hour podcast. All of us would gladly sit for the entire time.
1:01:40 I did not expect to hear "Due to the unique way the BBC is funded" again, and from Chris Harris lol
Wasn't it Richard Porter that originally said this on the podcast years ago?
@@deathcab4booty I was thinking more of Clarkson years ago on Top Gear, but Richard might've as well
@@Butterbean32 Richard does write the scripts, so he probably coined it. Watching sniff and Smith, it's almost a guarantee

About time Chris Harris did a new version of the time he was driven by Francois Delecour in a GT3 through the French Alps. Epic video.
You want him to die?
3+ hours with Chris please. :)
I've been waiting for this ep. FOREVER or atleast since the last CH ep.! Made my day to see it at the top of the page!
So glad to hear y'all are killing on the podcast space. Been enjoying this podcast for years and sounds like you've really blown up in the past 12-16 months. Cheers!
That was an excellent chat and a thorough cocking about which is what I gladly expect from you lot.

"Due to the unique way bbc is funded" 🤣🤣 1:01:40 that's Jeremy influence right there 🤣
Chris Harris is so chill. I'm surprised that he likes the e46 m3 so much but I do agree.
He knows greatness when he drifts it. - ZK #notbiasedatall
E90 is better
Leggo
@@TheSmokingTirePodcast Zack, we gotta see some of that driftin of yours that Chris was praisin. To get praise from Lord Driftsalot himself means that you're definitely doin somethin right. This was a Fan-fuckin-tastic podcast. 🤘🏼
Euro e36 m3 is even better, same as e46 but smaller/lighter and more hardcore
Matt and Zach, your podcast just keeps getting better! Since you have opened West Side Collector Car Storage!
Chris Harris is a LEGEND! Chris, come and drive in the late-September Champ Car race at Road America!!!
I rewatch the "Holy trinity" fairly regularly. Pure motoring gold. Epitomises the connection between a car nut and cars, albeit right at the top end of the spectrum.
Car talk with good people and sipping that Pappy V...what's not to like ! Made my day . Cheers.
Chris Harris is a car god, legend and TST , love from the uk 🇬🇧 keep on driving x
Damn I love a good laugh and expertise of Chris and Matt for old times sake!
Chris is just a f..king great bloke, pulls no punches & is a brilliant driver, so good to hear you guys shooting the shit together, Rj in Oz
The articles that Matt has been writing for Road & Track have been really enjoyable to read.
How nice is it to see the drive boys back together on RUclips! Now we need the others. Calling for a reunion!!! 😬😁
Two of the best automotive podcasts in one room. Excellent.
I have a black 1998 M3 coupe that has been mentioned on TST about half a dozen times. I'm the dude that swapped the head over the weekend at the 3rd Midwest Festival of #Gridlife at GingerMan. Holding on to that car over Covid has been difficult with all the offers being thrown.

It's a shame the camera wasn't on Harris during his American accent at 1:03:00
this was a real treat! great podcast. thank you for posting!
What a wonderful duo. I love Throttle House. Fantastically entertaining interview!
I'm a simple man, I see Chris -- I see Matt, I upvote! Thanks for the content 👍
such a good podcast!! thank you for this!!
Chris Harris is one of those people that are hilarious without even trying
Enjoyed every minute of this great video! Thank you guys for it!

Good to see Chris back, that hour plus went by quick!
I just love you guys I'm not gonna be watching any podcast better than yours thank you guys
BRILLIANT!!! Absolutely brilliant, boys! 🙌🙌🙌
Man you gotta be careful in the south when the shine comes out! whoooo boy, always a good time!
Someone needs to get Harris in a ct5-v blackwing
Great to have Chris back on, looking forward to this new season of top gear
I love Chris and Ed. so much fun. Great episode
This was a great podcast my only issue with it was that it was too short! Lets not wait another 2 years!
I mostly listen versus watch, but I just noticed Matt is drinking Taconic Bourbon here, very nice 👍🥃
Chris - “Could you own a Tesla ?” - giggles like an evil villain 😂
Matt - “… awkward pause… ah…” 😂😂

Holy shit, can't remember the last time Harris was on. 🙌 Always makes me think of the old Rogan and smoking tire episodes.
Every single time Chris is on is a top 1% episode
Chris Harris is the greatest.
Super nice episode. I love Chris I constantly find myself sharing his videos to my friends!

Would love to know why you wouldn’t send your car to Gated6 for a manual conversion?
Could listen to this all day
OMG Chris is brilliant. So entertaining.
Very nice episode, happy to hear Chris
What a great podcast! Need another one with beer!
This brings back memories of Drive.
you could do a 12h podcast with Chris and I'd still watch every second of it
This was so fucking awesome! Love the podcast to bits
The fucking smurk on Chris' face when he asks Matt if he'd buy a Tesla is priceless 😂 the world needs a TST Chris Harris Episode annually.
Fuck shows with Chris and Ed are magical. THX for the grate show.
Let them tell their stories without butting in!
Yeah, Farrah is always trying to interrupt and talkover.
Lovely podcast episode Im a year or so late but I really enjoyed it. 🔥🔥🔥
much appreciate the awesome content!
There's a full 24 hour race on sept 10, 11 at High Planes Raceway with Lemons
I'm here for Chris
Most of us are 😂 Chris Harris is a legend!
That was very nice show . Thank you!
