I think this industry needs more coverage from “outsiders”...who aren’t at every race, and who aren’t doing there best to stay in the “good ol’ boys” club.

If that means they cover the races from the outside looking in, then so be it. I hope some media outlet gets so big that the “industry” can’t black list them or ignore them...and then I hope that outlet actually does some really reporting, for a change...this industry needs way more of that...and way less of the media being the PR department for the teams and riders (only saying what the teams/riders allow them to say...for fear of being black listed).

Maybe that’s Gypse Tales...maybe it will be someone else...but I hope it’s someone.

The ironic thing is that the opening poster just gave Gypsy Tales a good bit of free advertising.

Anyone who works hard to find a way to make a income doing something they love instead of a 7-5 job is a hero in my book. Ill check out his show. Thanks

Who are the individuals/companies giving this clown a platform. He brings zero to the table and is a misrepresentation of the sport. He sits in his little closet and doesn’t leave. Doesn’t attend races, isn’t at the test tracks and doesn’t even talk to the athletes. He’s no different than an arm chair quarterback. Maybe worse, at least the arm chair quarterbacks competed at some point back in the day.
It’s just weird to me. Why do people value his opinion?

Lmfao if you are dissing him for what he does, then what are you? An even BIGGER clown lmfao 🤡

At last a bit of sense on the subject, last time I checked there wasn’t a monopoly on talking about dirt bike racing. Maybe if he was being a bit more ignorant with his cohosts he might get more approval on here.

I think Mathes may be getting a little jealous after being the #1 guy for so long.. its a bit ironic that Pulp have just started with the Graeme Bessinger style small clickbait clips like Gypsey has been doing for a while..

I don’t watch any of those, but I get why they’re doing it, and if it’s making money, run it.

I’d love to know how much they pull in per month. The whole YouTube monetization thing fascinates me.

I will give those videos clicks just to read the shit show in the comments. Now that, is entertaining.

Go back and have a look at OP post's he does not have a lot of positive to say, take it with a grain of salt.

I listen to Gyspy from time to time on you tube. He's no star reporter for moto but I do enjoy his conversations he has with former and current riders. He has had plenty of big names on his show and its always worth the listen. He asks a lot of good questions but also keeps it very casual.

I like pulp and listen every week during my commute to work. I really do like his very honest opinion and how he doesn't sugar coat much. I do HATE how he treats the people that call in like they are a burden. Some of these fans wait hours to ask questions and almost right away he is trying to rush them off the phone. I get he needs to keep the show moving but its really a huge kick in the nuts to the fans who call.

Can’t believe this went on for 5 pages..

It’s worth noting, his newer podcasts are considerably better than the early days, I wasn’t originally a fan, but I can see the effort he is putting into improving.

I'm pretty much hooked, he's more like the howard stern of interviews for our sport. Does good in depth interviews and gets a lot of the cool details about incidents and life styles questions posted on here all the time. PulpMX is more of a super fans consortium point of view.

For example.. people always ask about the dollars they make or get. Here is a great clips about the jets and their salaries and bonuses.

I've been on and off about him ever since he started his show. I love his guests and their stories, which for me are the only reason I listen to some of them. Jase however comes across as a giant arrogant douche, and I can't stand listen to his long monologues and annoying interruptions.

Gypsy Tales is trash. Bro talk and too much Jiu Jitsu. He is also a shit rider. My 12 year old son who is a C grader laps him at the track. Scared of MX jumps as well.

Think of how much a loser you must be to create a username on here just to bash a reporter who gets the biggest names in the sport on his pod cast by bringing up a 2-year-old thread. 

You rule bro!

Yeah, but is your son running one of the biggest media/podcast channels in the sport?

I get the "dude, like, OMG bro"  thing can be a tough listen. Yes he talks BJJ as much as moto and I've poked fun at that myself before. Yeah he's one of those "get a 350" guys (I am too, no judgement). So yeah I get people can dislike all that or whatever else bothers them, but shit...

If it makes you as emotional as the OP or this latest guy that somebody is out there enjoying their life, you need to look inwards instead of tearing this bloke down.

I don't listen to it, but I'm not gonna shit on the guy.

i’ve come to realize that the past 3-5 years it seems a lot of people have just become miserable and are only concerned with other people and what they do like that busy body Karen that every HOA seems to have. Please just stop and worry about yourself and the world will become a better place for all of us, I promise! If you don’t like Gypsy, BJJ, the words bro or sick, Pulp, hopper, cooksey, weege show, Swap moto,  full throttle etc etc … just don’t listen … otherwise just STFU!

I really like some of his stuff , and some is not something I like to listen to. But I like that he is not just doing another Pulp show. Not that I dislike Pulp. I listen to most of the MX podcasts. A friend and I were doing a show years ago back when it was just DMXS radio and another show I can not remember. We were the first to do live video streaming too. But we just did it for fun and it takes a lot of time to do and do it well. Between organizing the guests and putting good questions together. We did it super  relaxed and tried to have the feel of just hanging out and chatting . 

I like that Gypsy Tales is a different style , and he is able to make the guests so comfortable that it feels  like you are a fly on the wall , listening to a conversation between 2 friends. I like the more raw style that  he has. It feels real. Not crazy over the top Howard Stern style stuff. But  more like if you were able to meet a racer and hang out and have a few beers and talk about racing.  There is room for different styles of shows like his. I like how he has gotten some outside of Moto guests on too.

I have not listened to all of them, but most of them have been pretty good. It gets a little old how he compares himself to everybody . But that's just him, And anybody who dislikes his stuff and thinks they can do better, Go out and buy the stuff to do a show. Anybody can do a podcast or vlog these days . Start out with a phone, add some external mics, work your way up to a sound board and cameras. There are some inexpensive and free software that you can use to get up and running. 

The first show I heard of his was with Mike Grondol the founder of Planet Fitness and  former part owner of the FC Honda Team.  I thought it was pretty good, and the ones with Deeghan . Its worth finding a person who you are a fan of that he has done a show with and giving that show a listen. You will most likely hear something about the rider that has not been talked about  before , or more in depth conversations about things you have heard about.

I see this same comment a lot around here. People often post on this forum and say “be positive or shut up.” I could say to you that if you don’t like reading people’s negative opinions, don’t visit a place that is designed to host opinions. Forums exist for people to share what they think, and if you want to live in a bubble, then you don’t have to be here getting emotional about negative comments. I’d always prefer to see the truth about how the community feels than always see a circle jerk of praise.

every show he has with a rider ends up being a forum with some sort of insight none of us knew about. say what you want.. be he gets a lot from riders on a personal level and he has some amazing guest from outside of our sport.

I like the show most of the time. Better than most shows on the tube.

Watch the episode with Tai Woffinden. Jase didn’t even know what a Solo looked like… poor form and shows a lack of interest in the people he’s interviewing.
