S10 Ep1: Trevor Nelson: I don't play any new music in my old car!
'Fuelling Around' is back for a tenth series, with Jason and Dave welcoming along another all star line up of notable petrolheads! First up, it's the smoothest of the smooth, DJ Trevor Nelson, who as well as knowing a thing or two about music as the host of Radio 2's prestigious afternoon show, is also a bit of a secret car nut! His early days of motoring were reassuringly humble like the rest of us, but these days, he has something a little bit special on his drive at home, and he's delighted to have the opportunity to talk about it properly!

S9 Ep8: Russell Kane: I love 1980s modern classics
The final episode of the series sees Jason and Dave sit down with a man who rarely sits down, comedian Russell Kane! Russell is currently half way through an epic UK tour that has already seen him play about 60 dates this year, with the same scheduled for next year, and that doesn't take into account the podcasts, the interviews and the corporate gigs that he has to try and juggle as well! Away from that though and when he does have some time to himself, cars are a passion, and in particular 1980's modern classics! He loves old Fords and the motors of his Essex upbringing that rolled off the line at Dagenham, just down the road from his mum and dad's house, but has treated himself to a 1986 vintage BMW 5 series which is his pride and joy, and something he's only too happy to talk about!

S9 Ep7: Ben Edwards: The voice of motorsport and his career in cars!
Ben Edwards has enjoyed a highly acclaimed career as a motorsports commentator, presenter and journalist, but it was behind the wheel and on track where it all started for him, and he still manages to get out in his track car when he can. With the F1 season concluding in Abu Dhabi last weekend and the Formula E season kicking off in São Paulo at the same time, it seemed the perfect opportunity to get Ben on the podcast fresh from his travels, to give Jason and Dave his expert analysis on all of the week's goings on, plus the customary walk down memory lane in terms of his own motoring life story!

S9 Ep6: Mike Bushell: Track days for me are the ultimate thrill!
On this week's episode, Jason and Dave meet BBC Sports presenter Mike Bushell, who did Strictly Come Dancing 5 years ago and now does commentary at Carfest when he's not getting up at the crack of dawn every day to take his place on the breakfast show sofa! Away from the day job, Mike loves nothing better than getting behind the wheel of something tasty on track, as he explains to the boys.

S9 Ep5: Jennie Gow: The support I received from the whole F1 family was incredible!
At the age of just 45 and suffering from flu at the time, Jennie Gow had a stroke that was to change her life beyond all recognition, in an instance. An incredibly scary situation for Jennie, her husband and her young daughter, it was unlikely she'd ever return to broadcasting again, but with an unwavering sense of fight and determination, coupled with the support of some incredible medical staff and therapists, Jennie's back on the BBC and doing what she does best, getting the biggest stories first, from the greatest stars in Formula One! The support she received from the world of motor racing and its fans has been a huge part of Jennie's recovery over the past two years, as she describes honestly and openly to Jason and Dave.
