Jeremy Clarkson does ‘fracking at the farm shop’
Jeremy Clarkson has revealed that he has a new love for podcasts.
In his column for The Times he revealed that he has weekly offers inviting him to host his own podcast but wrote: “I would rather nail my tongue to a piece of wood.”
But in typical Jeremy style, he couldn’t resist making a dig at TV presenter and podcast host, Gary Lineker when discussing how much money a podcast host can make.
He writes: “Sure, I’ve been told that Alastair Campbell and Rory Stewart are trousering £70,000 a month for talking to each other once a week and that Gary Lineker has become richer than Croesus for talking to Alan Sugar about his favourite goals.
“But you can do well financially out of being a rent boy and I’m not going to do that either.”

Jeremy, 63, also took aim at his former employers.
He questioned that if podcasts were full of intelligent people saying interesting things, then where did that leave the BBC?
He continued: “You might argue that it’s become the go-to service for people who want their shows presented by shouty pronoun enthusiasts in zany jackets, but the podcast world has that covered as well. It has everything covered.”

The BBC ended their working relationship with Jeremy Clarkson in 2015 when it was reported that Jeremy was responsible for an “unprovoked physical and verbal attack” on a colleague.
His Top Gear co-presenters also left the corporation after spending ten years together hosting the show.
Jeremy continued to talk about the BBC in his column, claiming that he had been predicting the end of the corporation for years.
He spoke about how there was talk that it would be over for the BBC when ITV launched and when it lost it’s license to show the football.
But Jeremy thinks that podcasts could be its final downfall.
Writing: “And it’s seen off everything. But right now, I’m faced with a choice: Homes under the Hammer followed by Bargain Hunt — or absolutely anything that takes my fancy on a podcast. And that puts Auntie in a bit of a spot.”
