  • Seriously?

    Claim to be the number 1 MotoGP podcast but really don’t understand racing. Just amateurs who think they’re funny.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Racing at Rossi’s Ranch | Ft Chad Reed #188
Q: What moment made you feel you had truly made it in racing?
There was no single moment of making it; Reed felt a sense of culmination in his last year at 38, recognizing the longevity and depth of his career rather than a single triumph, and appreciating the rivalry that defined his era.
Racing at Rossi’s Ranch | Ft Chad Reed #188
Q: If you could line up current MotoGP riders on a Supercross track, who would top the list?
Jack Miller and Fabio Quartararo were mentioned as having strong potential on a Supercross track, with Rins, Mir, and Marquez also highlighted as riders who could perform well given their experience and skill on two-wheel platforms.
Racing at Rossi’s Ranch | Ft Chad Reed #188
Q: How do you mentally stay competitive through your career?
Stay competitive by loving the sport, constantly reinventing yourself, and adapting to changes such as tire evolution and regulatory shifts, while maintaining passion and focus.
2 wheels vs 4 wheels | ft Craig Lowndes #186
Q: Did you drive an F1 car that day around Bathurst, and what was that experience like?
Yes, I did drive an F1 car during the Bathurst event; it was a unique blend of road-car sensations and track limits, with careful handling of tire temps and throttle control. The experience highlighted how different the F1 car's balance and aero demands are compared with a touring car, and it underscored the thrill of pushing a Formula One machine around Bathurst's iconic layout.
MotoGP is a vicious sport! Ft Mat Oxley | #183
Q: What advice would you give someone looking to break into MotoGP journalism today?
Build your own platform first—start a podcast or publish by writing for free on emerging sites to demonstrate your work. Persistence, consistency, and a portfolio of real bylines or content are essential before approaching editors or teams.
