If I Were You, The Car Podcast
The Fifth Seat
A weekly guessing game built from the show’s archive. You, the listeners and an AI challenger. The original recording settles every round.

One more way in
The Car Podcast with Chris Harris & Friends feels like sitting with friends. I’d give listeners a fifth seat: five archive rounds, one host per round. Pick the pair you think they chose, lock your answer, then hear the actual recording.
A reason to come back
Two points for the pair. One for a single car. Zero for neither. Let listeners compete with each other and an AI challenger that explains which earlier picks informed its guess. Bring listeners’ results and the AI’s mistakes back into the show.
Keep the good bits within reach
Source-linked archive search. Compare your car taste with the crew’s. Make a new brief to play with friends. Start by testing five checked archive rounds with a small group of listeners.
