And this is On the Other Side of Things, the Smith and Sniff spinoff in which we answer your questions.

Johnny Smith· Host0:08

[upbeat music] Hark, question time.

Richard Porter· Host0:15

On the Other Side of Things, our second show on a Friday. Half an hour of answering your questions. I'm going to dive straight in, as is my usual- This is becoming- ... habit ...

Johnny Smith· Host0:24

What, what will your voiture of choice be?" Is Tom French or is he just, like, occasionally using French words? I can't tell. Um, he says, "What will your voiture of choice be, and how will you negotiate merging the color schemes of Plato purple and Smith and Sniff mustard?"

Johnny Smith· Host1:10

Johnny Smith· Host1:25
