Why a five-pack? Sorry, we already downed one. It's Friday.



Anyway, there are five new interviews on the homepage, with Kyle Partridge, Ivan Tedesco, Josh Hill, Tyler Bowers, and Alex Ewing. Check 'em out.

Good job GuyB on that stuff. Man, it's easy to forget about Hill when you're thinking about who could do what this season. Hope he makes it back.

I'm confused by Partridge saying that I "talk crap" about him being on the team when, during the last Pulp show, I defended him to a caller by saying that he rode very well at the ME Cup and even got a text or a Tweet or something from KP saying thanks. The fact is he brought a sponsor to the team and "bought" his ride. That's nothing to be ashamed of by Kyle, good job to him. I've merely pointed this fact out a few times and also stated that I don't like this procedure because it could potentially down the road leave some good riders out of a ride. It's happening all the time in Indycar and I think it sucks.

If this is "talking crap" then I guess that's what I did but I don't see it.

One of the best interviews all year GuyB. The Ewing and Hill interviews I thought were the best.

Matthes...good job with asking the tough questions with the James Stewart podcast btw. Surprised me considering no one has asked him those questions straight up and he actually answered most of them..

Quick tidbit: they're projecting for Maddo's jump that he'll need to hit 120 to clear the distance he wants to go...and he has just over a quarter mile to hit that.

Good interviews...especially the Partridge one.

That Partridge deal is something else. A little too much business not enough race results to earn that ride unless he backs it up with some top tens in sx this year. He doesnt want to bad mouth Star...but he did.

Let me see here, one drink plus three martinnis over dinner = .07. So if I have 3 beers and some appetizers am I good to go unless I work for Coy?

Tedesco is one tough hombre. Knee, hip...and he still is showing up to compete.

Matthes I'm a big fan of your show but I got partridges back on this one.... Before monster cup I remember you saying something a long the lines of him barely being able to make main events... I stopped by the kawi track Tuesday and watched him and Ivan and would have to say he's on par with Ivan speed wise... As far as his conditioning I only saw them doing 10 lap motos together.... Partridge may have "bought" his ride but at the same time surprised the shit out of me going directly into the main out of the heat at MEC. Not many guys he battled with last year made the main. I think with the direction of Ivan and the good equipment he's on he will surprise some people this year. Hill also looked good at the track not really blazing fast but smooth VERY smooth. I don't think he talked bad about star at all he's said the same thing in a lot of interviews he's done. That star took care of him but was unhappy cause they wouldn't do any testing with him. I think being at that level of a team it's almost expected and never happened... Id be pissed also. -Kyle keep putting in the work and stay healthy and I think you'll be a top 10 guy ,we need more people like you that keep it real rather then then robots your racing against-.

I was thinking the same thing Steve but can you please tell me if Hippy and the Hick will be back on the air soon. Gazza Downunder.
