Episode 007 ”Grumpy Old Men”
Happy Thanksgiving and welcome back to another episode of the officially unofficial podcast of all things Grenadier - Grenadier Works with Krabby and Stu. In our last episode we sat down with forum member Anand - the Global Grenadier’s tame racing driver.  We got a little peak into the US PTO2 tour, discussed just “who” the Ineos customer is, and rambled on about a handful of other things with our fantastic new friend.  Unfortunately for today’s listeners, there’s no guest in episode seven - just two clowns. Episode 007 - Grumpy Old Men - reveals our true colors - two grumpy 40-somethings complaining about first-world problems.  Stu sounds off about the Las Vegas Grand Prix and Krabby goes along for the ride.  While this is not an F1 podcast by any means, both of us are big fans of the sport and connecting it all to Ineos is really simple since they own 1/3 of the Mercedes factory-backed team.  Along the way though, we take a few swipes at Donny Osmond and some random guy interviewed by Martin Brundle. After taking our shots at all things Las Vegas Grand Prix, Stu gets a call from the dealer!  His truck is inbound and Stu will be at the wheel before too long, so dig in and listen as Stu breaks down his spec.  We also have some interesting banter over the winch, roof rack, and one extra special Ineos accessory that Stu couldn’t live without. Stu spins back around to insult Las Vegas and its F1 debut and we fire some cheap shots at Kylie Minogue and lament that neither Liberace nor the dynamic duo that was Siegfried and Roy made an appearance.  We then speak a bit about some classic Jags, a Strange Rover, Max’s Elvis-inspired race suit, and sleepless Christmas Eves.  Lastly, the Ineos Thanksgiving target is brought up and, ever off course, Krabby closes the episode out reminiscing about his college newspaper and a Welsh pilgrim. So sit back, relax, and enjoy this Thanksgiving Day episode of Grenadier Works with KRABBY and STU.  And take comfort in knowing that if there wasn’t enough Tryptophan in the turkey, this episode will help put you to sleep.   #LasVegasGP #F1 #MarioAndretti #DonnyOsmond #KylieMinogue #MartinBrundle #GwenStefani #Crash #ATribeCalledQuest #AwardTour #QTip #ZlatanIbrahimović #EldoretBlue #NATO #Jaguar #DailyCollegian #PennState #NickMorrish #Pilgrim   https://www.rhinorack.com/en-us/products/roof-racks/platforms-and-baskets/pioneer-platform-accessories/spade_43124 www.redarcelectronics.com https://www.psucollegian.com/ https://morrishandco.com Grit, Rigor and Humour The INEOS Forum     #Grenadier  #4x4 #BuiltOnPurpose #INEOSGrenadier #GrenadierPodcast #GrenadierWorks  “The Grenadier” headline track by Gabriel Borza “Grenadier Works” logo by Antonio García
Episode 002 ”The Hard Way Home”

Episode 002 ”The Hard Way Home”
Welcome back to the nearly new and officially unofficial Grenadier podcast hosted by KRABBY and STU   Last time we centered on the Grenadiers backstory and Sir Jim Radcliffe, this time though we speak to one of the first people in the world to take delivery of their new Grenadier. This wasn’t any delivery however, this was the hard way home.   After emerging triumphant from a tough selection process involving thousands of INEOS Grenadier customers, three winners headed to a remote valley in Morocco’s Atlas Mountains for the most extreme new vehicle handover. Including one of the world’s most dangerous roads, the Tizi n’ Test Pass, the adventurers were battered by fierce storms, unexpected snowfall and washed out trails that added to the expedition’s challenge. The ‘Hard Way Home' competition was open to customers that had followed the Grenadier from the earliest stages of its development and had been among the first to place reservations. Entrants were invited to participate in an off-road selection event in the UK with videos of the candidates posted on INEOS Automotive’s social media channels. Fans and followers then voted for the finalists they believed deserved to take the ‘Hard Way Home’ from their vehicle handover in Morocco.    Three finalists were chosen, those being Gemma, Ingemar and Zahid, today we have one of them here to discuss his incredible adventure and his day to day life with the Grenadier after 15,000km.    We discuss the challenges that the expedition had and how they overcame them. We find out which vehicles broke down and more importantly which ones didn’t. Ingemar also explains the modifications that he has made to his Grenadier ‘Loki’ and what’s on the horizon for future trips. Lastly but not neatly we get to meet Thor, Ingemar's faithful husky sidekick. Sit back and relax as we enjoy the Hard Way Home on this episode of Grenadier Works with KRABBY, STU and INGEMAR too.   Expedition Highlights Tizi n’ Test Pass Grit, Rigor and Humour   The INEOS Forum   Ingemars Social media channels  Instagram Youtube   #Grenadier #4x4 #BuiltOnPurpose #INEOSGrenadier #GrenadierPodcast #GrenadierWorks #thehardwayhome   ”The Grenadier” headline track by Gabriel Borza ”Grenadier Works” logo by Antonio García
