His theory on payouts is interesting and got me wondering.
ETA: Nate, I thought the payout theory was pretty interesting, too. I think the toughest sell would be Honda and Suzuki (if they decide to come back). Both are run in the old school Japanese style of "this is the way we've always done it." It'd probably be easier to fly to the moon in a homemade rocket than to get an old school Japanese business man to change his ways.
But having read on here that he wasnt on the show and also really wanting to hear Mitch's story I tuned in and Im half way through,its like a different show,so so much better.
For once we get to hear what the guest has to say,it flows so much better which makes it easier to listen to.
Ping is so much better on his own and he even seems more relaxed,the producer jumps in a little but not too much
Sorry GL I think you are a great champ and racer and commentator,but on a podcast you are painful due to making the questions about you to be honest.
I would recommend this show to anyone now,Mitch has some great stories
Also, would really like to get some in-depth discussion on the 2021 Supercross schedule. (6) SXs in 3 weeks to start the season is a game changer. They had a taste last year in Utah, but lessons learned and day to day schedule for the team and riders would be cool to hear from Mitch's perspective.
I'm on my 2nd listen, great stuff. I'm not going to complain for the hours of free content whiskey throttles show provides.
I'm glad David is going through just about each year of the teams history. So much there!

Such an enjoyable listen, this podcast. A calm conversation without interruptions all the time. Thank you so much for allowing silence during the part where Mitch is talking about his accident, and letting him get it out at his own pace.
GL is great on TV but perhaps the two talkative personalities of him and Ping aren’t great for 2 on 1 interviews.
Btw, the Kiedrowski show was epic. Not many people knew/know what a frikken raw talent Mike was. He was an absolute animal outdoors. The way he absolutely annihilated an outdoor track on his factory KX-250 was effing unreal. Dude was a BMF!!!
Although Mike is well known for his MXKIED license plate, not many know about his wallet....
I think Donnie did a great job filling in, he asked questions about Mitch’s answers that Mitch would’ve glossed past and not delved into which was great for someone like me who hasn’t followed his career at all or know that much of older moto history and such. To me it didn’t seem like he was ever stepping over anyone and helped prompt details or stories Ping and Mitch have probably gone over tons of times and may have skipped passed.
Part two with GL should be great! I really enjoyed part one, Mitch is a great story teller and has so many to tell! The PCP logos and shirts cracked me up, I never knew that!
The other dude, however (Donnie), needs to cut out about 50% of his input. Nobody is tuning in to hear his perspective.
That being said, he could definitely throttle back on the talking over people (GL, too). Sound collisions are never a good thing.
Great work David and Donnie.
