Drive Thru News #48 - Boun Ferragosto!
Manage episode 436475984 series 2847910
Ferragosto is a public holiday celebrated on 15 August in all of Italy. It originates from Feriae Augusti, the festival of Emperor Augustus, who made August 1st a day of rest after weeks of hard work in the agricultural sector. This has turned into the larger more modern idea of taking 2-3 weeks of time-off during the month of August, and has become customary in many European countries. But now that we’re heading into September, it’s time to get back after it, with Episode #48 of the Drive Thru! Break/Fix podcast's monthly news episode containing automotive, motorsports and random car-adjacent news.
