That nicely killed a few hours on a Saturday, thank you for the entertainment as always - Top work. Team Enduro all the way ✊🏻

[@SoulKiAries]

Been waiting for another podcast for a while now, but now I’ve listened to it and it’s over I’ve got to now wait for another🥺 You should all set up a minibike race and have like qualifiying/heats/winner. Would be a right laugh!😁 The podcast also ended up getting 2nd most listened to this year🤘🏻

[@chris_moodie9]

Cool to hear you guys talk about the injures. Out here in Canada I have been getting shafted just waiting for an MRI since Oct 23rd that just got scheduled for Jan 14th. I have at least one full tear in my shoulder that was found from an ultrasound 3 weeks after the crash. At the hospital the day of, they only took x-rays and told me it wasn't dislocated then handed me a sling saying it will take a few weeks to recover. I've already been told I need surgery but nothing seems to be going my way. There is my venting lol its so true that having a connection can prevent so much bullshit.

[@JackWatson1]

Quality guest this week. I started watching Matt’s videos during lockdown, gave me hours of entertainment. Keep up the good work, looking forward to the next one. P.s the latest Kecks drop is siiick.

[@team-118]

20:00 indoor snot rocket.. woah..

[@LukeMilbourne]

Great content guys! Was cool to meet you and Tommy at Inch Perfect the other week too! Keep the content coming and definitely looking forward to the Christmas special!

[@stephparry77]

Great pod cast, Matt was good guest considering I’d never heard of him!!! I’m gonna follow him now! Keep up the work boys!! 👍

[@doughe9973]

Another quality podcast Ed. As always, the look into a pro racers life is really appreciated ( Billy is an open book ). Given, a few yawns but Billy getting all the details out about his crap 2 weeks buildup to first indoor round, you really can see most people couldnt handle dealing with multiple medical places, the travel between days is horrendous, even making the Welsh tough one to support UK racing and racing across Europe, to leave the hospital bed straight into round 1. Impressive. Cheers for the VIP guest, to mix up the normal dialogue.

[@glennalderton1313]

Mate, when the weather here is too hot to ride or I am injured or we're in lock down, I'll put on the vids of you, Mario, Graham, etc and hit the exercise bike and rower and try and keep up! You guys always win but I'm in there giving it a go! 🤘 Love watching great riders viewpoint! Keep doing it!

[@oligodfrey]

Subscribed and follow you all and in doing so it's gave me the motivation to start a little channel, nothing probably will come of it but seeing normal lads do it has made me have the bit of confidence I needed to go for it, keep it up lads love all the videos and podcasts 👌

[@thaddeusportz]

Great podcast! Made my morning. I'd been waiting to hear about Billy's ordeal to be fair. Glad I have the premium youtube though. May have taken a few ads to get through that one ;) Good job on the win Bill, good job not being very good at trials Tommy. Matt just got a new subscriber. Ed, good job as always! Keep up the quality content!

[@cammyrutherford]

Another banging podcast troops. It’s a count down every month for the next one can’t wait. Keep it up guys 🏍💨💪

[@masondekeyrel6539]

Rad Podcast! Awesome to see the Moto and MTB community come together!🤘

[@lewismeadows6041]

At the end you talk about seeing people in your own merch, was out in chesterfield Friday night and a guys in a club with the new kecks cap on at 3am. Was like gu on Ed

[@TheJackers97]

Another quality podcast! So sick to see Matt on the pod, can’t wait to watch you lot down at the compound.

[@markosborne24]

Great show! Good to see this is still going strong! Well done.

[@adrenalinehope5635]

Very pleasurable listen!!!

[@GravityRiddenMedia]

A month to long glad podcast are back another great episode loving the new kecks Ed. Cap is spot on. Need to drop new merch bill. Tommy loves the long story's 😂😂

[@davidcoulson4717]

Great to have you guys back!!!

[@lukeheaver1550]

Surely a pitbike race day has to be setup, Matt Jones and Crew VS Tommy and crew. This would be great to watch. Get it done

[@2PRO1SLOW]

This needs to happen

[@windowsprayuk]

Quality poddy again! I'm enjoying these, especially when you incorporate a cool guest too. Giz that gazebo 🤣🤞

[@philipallen9185]

Great podcast being from the mtb world good to see you all mix it up and take a interest in the mtb world

[@garretthorner]

Glad to see you boys back but now I’ve committed to another late night 😂 Hyped on Matt joining in 🤙

[@2PRO1SLOW]

haha who needs sleep

[@lukebaker1687]

Another top PC. Matt was hilarious, jumped on the give Tommy banter train straight away!

[@nzslackie]

More mint content... never heard of that guy Matt, but some great banter from the get go. I'm off to have a look at some of his videos!

[@Enduro262]

Spot on boys.discovered mat’s channel in lock down 🤙

[@tomassofting]

Good job as always!

[@Tarzone12345]

Bang up job. I dabble in MTB, MX, and trail riding on a moto. I tend to hold my own in each. Except riding the moto on trails. Nearly lost a hand doing that shit. Never again. Track is much safer. I could definitely get some use out of gazebo and a pair of bulls-eye pants. I'll even take a crack at making Tommy a logo. Love the pod cast and all the vlogs. Keep up the good work.

[@gildo101rossi]

😂 gotta admit I was a bit gutted having a MTB rider on the podcast instead of someone in moto, but he was class, funny as hell. Probably one of the best ones yet

[@2PRO1SLOW]

Glad you enjoyed it in the end, Matts a cool chap.

[@gildo101rossi]

@@2PRO1SLOW subbed to his KZbin page, his content is brilliant too.

Billy's right, anything is better than nothing and it's all better than what's on telly!

[@SkidM3rks]

Would love to see Sam Pilgrim on the podcast. Proper mtb geezer and a top mechanic to boot. Ed and Matt sound so similar, I thought you were related.

[@paulbugden7708]

Another entertaining episode gents! 👊 You guys bicker and argue more than myself and 'er indoors!

[@neilbarley4679]

Literally remember Tommy at castle donnington bymx with his wrist.in pit box before qualifying he goes this is going to be hard my wrist is killing then went home

[@MrSteves25]

Another sick podcast lads 👍🥇🎖

[@TEAMCHAOSMEDIA]

The talk about warming yourself up on the exhaust blows my mind being from western Australia the exhaust is the devil because we are constantly cooking hot when riding

[@johnb7442]

Billy, you got skillz but have a breather!!

I’d have a ‘Useless Mong’ T shirt for my misses

[@strokenumber3]

'Mong' is an extremely disrespectful term; know the meaning then consider that how you're born is out of your control , people don't ask to born with that condition .

[@alpen4921]

@@strokenumber3 Hi Dave, thanks for letting me know. I’m sure Billy meant no such offence when he suggested putting it on a T shirt. I thought he was just putting a spin on Stans a Ming cause to be fair my misses would see the fun in wearing that T shirt too as she’s a big fan of them both. Merry Christmas buddy.

[@strokenumber3]

@@alpen4921 No problem, I know you/Billy don't mean offence, but to people with Downs and/or family members it it quite sensitive. Merry Xmas to you and yours.

% would look mint as race number and a logo 😂🤙

I would defo buy that t shirt Tommy

Bill took that long yt hit me with 2 ads 🤣🤣🤣

Haha, he can tell a story that lad

[@joshhooker3243]

Took a while to watch this one 😂

[@robertjennings745]

Always amazed you guys have doubts and fears sometimes, to us normals even at 50% you're a level we can't really comprehend. And it's not true no one cares about 15th, we read all the way down the results each week at WC level, such a shame it's not 40 anymore mind. Keep the insight coming, even Ed riding past the pits pretending his bike's bust to BB57 getting out of hospital to win.

[@lukelindley5000]

Class podcast again boys. Always a good laugh. Deffo need another mtb guest again 🤙
