I have to say that I downloaded a few of these on the strength if my love for Red Dwarf and I watched them and didn't enjoy any. However 6 months on I had nothing else to watch whilst stuck on a train so I gave them another go and I am so glad that I did, they are just rare gems of uncluttered, unscripted reality and with such a breadth of people I choose from there must truly be something for everyone

I have purchased the Tim vine carpool podcast. The opening titles play for 15 seconds then i have a black screen for the rest of the podcast. Very disappointed.

A stir-your-tea-sir? groinal attachment! It's such a pleasure to discover your show!

Previouslyvery entertaining, did what it said on the tin. The feed now, however appears to contain a random selection of videos, some foreign language, none related to Robert Llewellyn.

What's occurring?

That wee physicist is nice enough but I was hoping for the real Brian Cox.

I've always liked rob in all his shows from scrapheap challenge to red dwarf and this is another addictive show with interesting guests.

Thanks rob for all the hard work you put it making these

Don't listen to the moaners on here you doing a great job I loved them all. So keep them coming so many guests out there.

Am I the only one to not like the new look to the shows. The changes to the format since going to Dave tv has not improved the show, but it's now a poorer show. Bring back the old style show Robert please...

Relly was a bit of a self PR sell out, still pays the charity bills, but not Shappi she's as dense as concrete, I have funnier shoes...

What a top podcast & brilliant idea. Never watched it on "Dave" & only found the podcast by accident. Downloaded 15 episodes to my iPhone at first, now can't wait for the next to come out. Rob is a cool bloke, likes a laugh & is very down to earth. Keep it up!

Robert brings us a revolutionary concept in broadcasting. His easy-going manner puts his passengers at ease and always makes for an entertaining interview. I dare you not to become a carpooler today!

Great concept, funny guy and funny informative interviews! Great for the morning commute, and for walking the dog!!

It's great to see how this podcast has evolved from the first episode, great work Robert!

To Anyone who hasn't subscribed yet, I would really recommend doing so, or now watch it on Dave (if your in the UK)

Found this by accident tonight and have watched 6 in a row, loved David Mitchell, Ade Edmonson, Richard Herring and especially Dave Baddiel , would love to see Frank Skinner,Phil Daniels, Al Murray , Sarah Millican,Kelly Brook, Ricky Gervais,Steve Coogan,Karl Pilkington, Stephen Mangan,Annette Crosbie ,Robert Webb and Hugh Grant if you're wondering who to get for forthcoming episodes!

Great idea. 5 stars.

Fab idea, fab podcast.

Fab show

What a fantastic idea this was by Bobbyllew. Free to watch, relaxed, chat happy guests, comedic, warm host and no (well not many) plugs for upcoming books, movies etc.

No criticism at all of what is a pure delight to watch.

Love it!

Discovered this yesterday and I'm addicted already. Warm and relaxed interviews, funny watching peoples different manner just because they are in a car, one of the few podcasts where I'll mourn when it's over!

It's brilliant I watch it everywhere so simple yet cleaver idea and Robber Llewelyn is very good abd reads his passenger very well do wish he'd get lost more so it last longer though hehe

A brilliantly simple idea, executed superbly. I got into the podcast after watching the series on Dave and I think the idea of interesting people simply chatting is a brilliant one.

All too often these days, interviews are contrived situations merely to sell the interviewee's latest book / record / film, or to show off how clever the interviewer is when in reality, all they want to do is ask lots of clever questions to get the interviewee to say what they want them to say. Llewellyn's style is a refreshing change and I wholly recommend this podcast.

Now, just to wait for all 83 episodes to download...

Bob Llewelyn is a guy you can imagine being as nice in person as he appears on screen. His guests warm to him because this is a chat (in the truest meaning of the word) show. 2 people just chatting, free-form, funny and insightful. Particularly loved the Phil Jupitus and Mitch Benn episodes.

More please!

Firstly, @Franjelous - you miss the point. If this was in a studio with no distractions and perfect sound it would be just another chat show.

Anyway, what a brilliant idea. Wait for the copycats...

Brill show and great format love it to bits and enjoying catching up I recormend to everyone !

As a late arrival at carpool, I am avidly catching up and I admit, getting slightly addicted. The interview in a car works so well, yes sometimes the sound is slightly less than perfect but only to the purists. The whole situations creates a relaxed atmosphere meaning the interviewees talk openly and extremely interestingly. I love it and hope it will be just as successful on Dave. And Bobby Lewellyn is such a bloody nice bloke!

A must watch, listen and Download for all... absolutely brilliant... Thanks to Robert (and the team, no doubt ;) ) for giving us all Carpool... and all the best for the future...

Entertaining and educational nice one Kryton!!

Red dwarf star plus a car plus famous people times 60, how brilliant!

I think this is amazing! I love the eclectic mix of passengers being interviewed. The format is genius. I've really learnt a lot.

An amazing array of guests from a myriad of backgrounds. A great weekly watch

Truly original! Love it.

Great subjects but the whole thing would be far better were it not recorded in a car! The sound quality is awful, Robert looks pretty gormless when he's looking in the mirror and he clearly can't pay proper attention to driving in London at the same time as trying to keep up with his guests. Why not do it somewhere quieter and with fewer distractions?

Interesting and entertaining choice of guests/passengers and always asks the right questions and let's the guest speak. More of a natural conversation than the type of interview you see on TV.

Rob really presents and interacts with mucho gusto and the list of people interviewed is fabulous! Loving the scientific and skeptical elements especially - brian cox / rebecca watson etc. All in all the only video podcast I consider worth filling my iPhones memory with! Please don't do like loadsa others and suddenly stop doing em! Hungry for carpool!

Update as of 17th march 2010...spent all day watching people i'd never heard of with rob today whilst in hospital...the sheer range of subject matter and brilliance of how being in the car transforms an interview under robs guidance is a tribute to just what a great guy rob is. If you do read these rob, pat yourself on the back. I'm hooked and actually would pay to watch! It's that absorbing!

This is worth more than 5. I came across this by chance and I am so glad I did, Robert is great you almost feel like your there with him in the car. I look forward to every new one. I haven downloaded all the older ones and love to watch all the time.

Really excellent series, but I'm knocking two stars off, since Robert has started mixing Audio podcasts in with the Video - and it just becomes a real pain to sync across to the iPod.

Please put the audio in its own podcast and leave this as just video!

I was a late starter with Carpool but have now caught up with the back catalogue, a great format which always entertains and educates. Can we put in requests for guests? If so I'd like to see you give Gordon Murray a lift and discuss his T.25 city car. Keep up the great work.

Love these podcasts. On a par with the equally brilliant Stephen Tobolowsky podcasts also free on iTunes. Wish they were daily tho!

Always a Friday treat.

This is an absolutely wonderful little gem of a podcast. I shall never get bored on a train journey again! Often thought-provoking and education,and Robert asks the same questions I would (I.e. Nongenius-friendly!) Excellent.

By far one of the best shows not on tv.

This is one of the best podcasts out there, it is always intresting and the perfect length. I can not recomend it high enough

Congratulations Rob on a fantastic year of truly excellent Carpools. I can't think of a better podcast out there. I watch every week & am always amazed at the eclectic mix of the truly wonderful, intelligent & interesting people you've talked to on Carpool. Best wishes for 2010 & beyond!

It's like being sat in the car with two of your own friends, so very engaging.

Thanks Bob, pls keep it going the sponsorship will turn up in the end.

Engaging, interesting, funny, variety of guests, unique studio, and it's kryton!!

Consistantly engaging, funny and informative. The quality and mix of guest's has been fantastic and the production values are really impressive considering it's basically a one man show.

I think Robert should expand the guests to include interesting but not famous people too.

Inspired, endearing, and refreshingly honest. See people without the polish and spin. Very British.

Robert is so warm, modest and genuine. Nice job.

Robert Llewellyn comes across as a thoroughly charming and entertaining guest who is able to bring out a relaxed ‘off duty’ feel to the podcasts. This is light, fun, informative and entertaining.

Original format, great guests always humorous, informative or both.

Best podcast ever! Robert you truley are a god sir!

Well done

Downloaded the lot of these.

A really interesting cross-section of celebs and remarkable people in an unstaged car chat. Keep up the carcasts.

This is the perfect antidote to chat shows where the guests are simply there for someone for the host to take the mickey out of and to show off.

The interviews are interesting, the guests relaxed and the host charming.

Great stuff and actually worth paying for so as it's free a big thank you to Bobby and long may it continue.

really came across by pure accident but love the idea and format very funny and entertaining .

Brilliant idea,brilliant in everyway,the best and simply nothing else comes close.

Can't stop watching, have to cram just. One. More. Before I have to go bak to work.

Nice one Mr Llew

A great example of something which is simply a great idea and which would not look out of place amongst shows with many times the budget. A huge variety of guests, some I know of, some I don't but all of whom have something very important to say. Nice one Mr L

Inspired and entertaining ... an excellent example of the potential for new media ... I would just like to put my vote in for a smaller file size to sync with iPhones etc.

This is a great example of how a simple low budget idea can contain such high quality content.

Intelligent and entertaining conversation, but very down to earth.

TV doesn't produce low-fi content any more, so podcasts can step up to the mark. Here, right here, is the first really impressive exemplar of this idea. Llewellyn's small and perfectly formed idea gives you a little, meaty nugget of a hidden world. It's quirky, brilliantly human, and just bloody lubberly. Lisa Rogers' story about badgers: a typical CarPool moment. Thanks Rob!
