Yeah. Townley is one of the great riders of the last 15 years and IMO underappreciated. His style was so efficient I always enjoyed watching him smooth out a rough outdoor track.

The episodes have been great. But GL interrupting with every guest gets old. Especially when three sheets to the wind. Ping been killing it. Keep it up.

I don't get why everyone is piling up on GL. I think people forget that these guys all know each other already. Think about hanging out in a bar with your buddies. Does everyone wait for there turn to talk, or does everyone just jump in when they get excited about something? That's basically what's going on during the show, plus some of the side stories are pretty interesting and add to the conversation.

These shows have been awesome!! I went to the live show with Emig as the guest and for $20 bucks to get in it was well worth it!!! Does anyone know when the next live show is? I think theyre going to have RC as the guest and you know its going to be a badass show. Ive looked on their website and havent seen anything showing a date for the next live one.

You'll just have to wait for the announcement like everyone else.

It’s kind of like that girlfriend where nothing you do is good enough. Ralph doesn’t announce good enough, the cameraman doesn’t do his job good enough, there are too many commercials and when there are no commercials it’s too quiet. Instead of focusing on the positives some people focus on the negatives.

It was mainly last week that GL was going crazy, even Ping kind of acknowledged it. I thought he was fine this week.

agreed... GL definitely grabs the spotlight at times, but at least the man has some epic stories Laughing Great show this week with BT

I ran into GL three times at Red Bud MXoN, and all three times I told him he was a fucking legend

That was a great show! Really enjoyed listening to BT, he was interesting and Ping does a great job of leading the guest but giving them the room to get their thoughts out.
I thought GL killed it this week. I took a shot at him last week for rambling, but he was back to his normal self. Great job guys

The next LIVE show is Friday, February 8th with Adam Cianciarulo. Trying to get our schdule to line up with RC, but he's got his hands full at the moment. But don't sleep on next week's show with Eli Tomac... should be interesting. Its crazy how little we really know about the guy because he does prefer to stay out of the limelight.

You guys are doing a hangup job. I love the in depth stories of the rider's careers. My favorite podcast show!

BT was by far the best one. It really showed me how much he wanted it. Probably like the rest of the top dogs, but I'm not in the "know"

That was epic, thanks for that. You guys need to get down here to NZ and do the BT tour. The riding here in NZ really is something special.

I have started listening to a few different podcasts lately and find myself listening to the stories like a little kid. Its cool to hear where they come from and a bit of an insight into their lives.
