Great show - and good to hear some unfiltered opinions on a few interesting topics. Well worth every minute - their dad is a legend too.

I’m team Hunter for life after listening to that show. Kid is going to go a long way in this industry. He sounds like he could manage a factory team today without any problem.

EXCELLENT show

And hats off to their father. He did/does it right.

Also, fuck the teams in MXGP that continuously screw over riders. You guys should be ashamed of how you handle business.

I’m having a hard time getting through some of the great older episodes so it could be awhile before I get to the more current ones, but I might have to move this one up in the cue.

I’m still a little bit giddy over how good these are. The overall quality of the interviews is so much better than back when I stopped listening to moto podcasts that I now understand why I gave up on them.

WTS is the top step of podium for Moto interviews and really learning who the guest is rather than click bait. Only motocross show I watch start to finish! Great job Pingree, Troy Lee and the sponsors involved to make it happen. I appreciate the time and effort it takes for you to make it happen. GL needs to come back for a show or two sometime also. RV is great at the table as well!

Hunter is awesome, definitely sees the bigger picture. Super bright lad with potential for not only one amazing racing career but one after racing. Parents have to be proud

Their father, and mother of course, obviously did an amazing job with those two kids. They have a perspective most their age don't have.

I also think it's noteworthy that until listening to the podcast I didn't really know about any of the pretty extreme struggles they faced. A lot of people would use that as a marketing tool, though they clearly have not tried to exploit it.

It's hard not to be a real fan of both of them after listening to that whole interview.

I especially liked the part about when Jett was so pissed at Hunter when he thought he crashed and ruined his season.

I mean you don't have to be a fan or even cheer for them, but you have to respect what they've done to get where they are.

Dazzy seems like a smart guy with tons of passion. The three of them would be so fun to hang out with.

I thought Jett and Hunter's take on the US amateur program versus the program in Europe was really interesting. Basically Jett said that he was going backwards as soon as he came to the US amateur program. Food for thought considering we just finished with Loretta Lynn's. Totally worth the listen... starts about 1:15.

I listen to the show during long road trips, it definitely makes the drive a lot more enjoyable and feels shorter than it actually is. We listened to it last night on our drive home from TN. I can say for sure that those 2 are going to go a long way. Their story is incredible! I would love to meet their father, it was awesome to hear his thoughts and he didnt hold back. I love all of the shows, but this one really was unique because the boys story is so inspiring and lets you know that if you put in the effort and really believe, good things will happen. Good job Ping, keep up the good work!

Crazy there was no press out there about Hunter being that sick. Sure does change the way his last couple years looks imo.

I'm thinking it was sorted out when the shoulder, knee etc. was done so the main or public focus was on the ortho injuries.

It was a VERY good episode. The Lawrence are very inspiring and really easy to listen to. ...also, have to say, Ping has some great questions, follow up questions and just a general very good way with his guests and the Lawrence bros.

I came into it expecting it to not be good since they are both young and are in the early stages of their careers, but it was actually very good. I had no idea they had it as rough as they did in Europe. Definitely one of the better whiskey throttle episodes.

This is the story they need to be telling on the broadcast in between motos. Leave the "what did you buy your girlfriend" and "who is on your Mt. Rushmore" garbage.

Yeah, that was a good one. The banter with Ping, especially from Hunter, was perfect. Not too arrogant or anything, just spot on. I can't imagine what it's like in their household(s) on a day to day basis, piss taking all day I would imagine.

I didn't know Hunter was married, that surprised me.

Just got finished listening and what a fantastic interview that was. The whole family seem like true grafters and as others have said, they have the perfect balance of confidence, determination and respectfulness which makes them so likeable. Jett has clearly been the more focused upon brother in the last couple of years and I'm a big fan of his but I have to say that Hunter really impressed me throughout that entire podcast. Really excited to see their careers progress and hope they both have some success in their futures!

Also, while I love the dynamic that 2 hosts bring to the experience, that was really enjoyable just having Ping as the only interviewer. The conversation definitely flowed a bit more naturally and there was mucu less overtalking. Great episode Ping and the crew!
