Gypsy Tales

This is an epic episode of the podcast. Jayo Archer is about as good as it gets and his story from the FMX shadows into the history books is giving me goosebumps as I type this! From getting up every day to train at 3am before working two jobs just to get a couple attempts of the Triple Flip in each month, Jayo's level of commitment was borderline insane. Enjoy. We have just launched our new membe...

The boys are back!!! SX Companion 2023. It has been a long time coming, but the boys are finally back live for A1 and this was an absolute banger. It isn't SX Companion without the Glovelord himself, Samuel Moore; and we were lucky enough to be graced with the presence of World Cup Downhill (and now CRF-250 savage Dean Lucas. We were also blessed on the racing front as it was one of the most actio...

Todays episode is with Aussie motocross ripper Dee Wilson. At one point Dee was one of the hottest prospects in Australian racing before a horrific head injury forced him to retire early. Dee has the kind of talent on a bike though that means even with an early exit from racing, he was constantly being dragged back on a bike by people like me, MXStore and Rat Racing. Whether for bike test, gear sh...

With the 2023 AMA Supercross season fast approaching there maybe isn't a better guy I could get in the studio to bench race with than Mike Sleeter. Sleet-Dawg also recently tested my KTM-350 build so we were able to dive a little into that test, talk about Ken Roczens dominating off season. Both of the Coopers in the 450 class. Chase Sexton to KTM in 2023? How many riders could / would win a race...

Dean Wilson, Motocross and Supercross legend, finally makes his debut on Gypsy Tales! This one has been a long time coming and in our humble opinion it is a banger. Dean has always been, and will always be a fan favourite and although he has announce that he is going to be doing Supercross only going forwards, Dean Wilson still has so much more to offer the motocross community. This is a brilliant...

Charlie Dixon is one of the big boys of the AFL, but when he’s not belting anyone without a Port Adelaide jersey in; you can find him doing something with a motor and some petrol! There’s nothing more I love to see than someone killing it in their chosen field and in their downtime feeding their soul with some moto, and Charlie is about as good as an example as it get. You can find out more about...

He has a loyal fan base who over the years has been given some top notch advice on all things dirt bikes and it was a pleasure to s...

On one hand, Colby Raha is the last of a dying breed of hardcore Freeriders that made their name from sending it in the hills to a heavy soundtrack of punk rock and metal. On the flip side of that same coin though, Colby is leading the charge of innovative new riders taking advantage of every opportunity available to them; from X Games competitions, YouTube channels, feature length movies and Fact...

With the WSX in town and a couple of the boys deciding to stay and enjoy the Gold Coast post race, it was the perfect time to smash out a couple pods.

These guys are a wealth of knowledge in the sport and it was super fun to sit down for a...

On top of this he has also completed some test sessions in an F1 car and now has his sights well and truely s...

Since 2019 he has grown not only a massive audience, but a loyal following, with his entertaining content and commitment to charity.

Tom Dahl and Cam Lowry make up the Alpha Blokes podcast, on of the hottest podcast in Australia right now. They boys made the trip from Central Queensland to Burleigh to record their own shows, so we jumped on the chance to have the boys in the studio for a world class session of talking absolute nonsense. You won't meet two more genuine Aussie blokes and this was an extremely fun three hours in t...

World Motocross and AMA Champion Ben Townley made the trip across the ditch to support his son Jagger racing at the Australian Nationals. We took a couple of days out of the studio to do some one on one coaching with Ben (full video coming soon) and then to catch up for the podcast. Bens first appearance on the podcast was in 2019 where we went deep into his career, but this time, we wanted to do...

You can head to Isaacs website to find out when Isaac is touring in your city and also check out his own podcast, Cancel Me Now. SPONS...

Jeffery Herlings is often referred to as the fastest man alive. He is a 5x MXGP World Champion and rarely does interviews. I was fortunate enough to film a young Herlings at the McGrath ranch way back in 2013 but we haven't had any contact since then. From just that one shoot though I always knew Jeffery would make a hell of a podcast if we were ever able to make it happen and today is the day. Je...
