He looks fit and wish he would be involved in the sport he knew so much about but this has to be a money grab or something. With his stellar career and gear line I don’t think he’s in it for the money though. Boggles my mind, I’m still a fan of all he’s done.

What would be awesome is once SX starts he does an episode after each race to break things down from his perspective, explain the little in's & out's and rider techniques, maybe even get some rider interviews to discuss their races like Steve does on Pulp. The Pulp rider interviews after a race are always great but to have someone like Stew specifically ask a rider why he took this line or why/why not these settings on the bike etc etc....that would be something a diehard like myself would soak up like a sponge.
Having said that, he seems to keep dipping his toes in the sport and then vanishing which is odd. Not sure if too many knocks to the head or his experience with being a professional was so bad that it made for this love/hate relationship with motocross that he keeps making these attempts to stay involved publicly then gets overwhelmed...who knows. You can't discount multiple head injuries and the impact that has, permanently, on your thought process.
In any case it's always good to hear from the guy and I wish him and his family the best. Maybe he stays involved this time, maybe not. Definitely don't think it's a money thing. He could open up a riding school tomorrow and be raking in the dough. He clearly wants to be involved in the sport in some fashion so maybe it would do him some good to open up a bit. Let us know what's going on in that Stewart noggin with this, odd to us, relationship he has with the sport.

Overall it was an ok show! They will get better if he keeps at it.
Like others have mentioned, they’ll find their legs over time I’m sure but this one was a little clunky. I was surprised not a single one of them knew what a vlog was!
Overall, it was entertaining. I loved hearing him talk about his last SX race in 2012, especially since the Re-Raceable podcast just came out with an episode touching on it. Hearing James kid asking what was up with Sextons face had me rolling.
ignorance of whoever decided to screw over James.
When he was racing he wasn't even my favorite racer that I wanted to win, but after he was GONE I realized what a huge gaping hole he left when they screwed James over.
He really was the most EXCITING racer I've ever seen in my 53 years following the sport.
Truly FEARLESS like Magoo but with more technical talent and like Danny he would either Win or CRASH his Brains out trying.
Not only did the AMA/FIM end James career, they also ROBBED the fans of the sport as he still had some racing left in him.
