Someone Failed Their Driving Test 128 Times It Cost £3000

Someone failed their UK driving theory test 128 times, spending £3,000. The previous record was 21.

Jack Austin and Adam Garcia can't believe this is real. Plus: China just wiped out Nvidia's entire business model overnight.

And the world record for snapping cucumbers that absolutely nobody asked for.

**In this episode:**

✓ 128 failed theory tests (was it a man or woman? Place your bets)

✓ UK driving test wait times hit 22 WEEKS

✓ Military testers brought in to clear the backlog

✓ Bots booking tests and reselling them for profit

✓ China bans Nvidia - 95% to 0% market share instantly

✓ Why China's happy with inferior chips (quantity over quality)

✓ Rachel Reeves already breaking tax promises (shocking)

✓ 65 cucumbers snapped in 30 seconds

✓ Why Britain hasn't innovated since WW2

**Mind-blowing facts:**

Previous theory test failure record: 21 attempts
This person: 128 attempts
Cost per test: £23
Total wasted: £2,944

China's strategy: Buy 5 rubbish chips instead of 1 good Nvidia chip. Build bigger data centres. Win.
