BARON Meets - Michael Neeves of Neevesy Bikes | PODCAST 001

[@BaronVonGrumble]

Welcome! This was my 1st podcast recorded back in November and I loved it! Really want to do more and obviously need to learn the craft as I go but please feel free to point out things you liked/didn't like and what you would love to see in the future - please try and be constructive! Who would you like to see? I think interesting people, who like bikes - rather than bikers who are interesting.. if that makes sense! hahah

[@PabloConcrete]

Hey Mr Baron! Will this be available on Google Podcast Platform, please? Thank you!

[@AlexImy-ur5rr]

Best of luck sir baron.. 🏁🏁

[@twoorfour]

As for people I'd like to see: People who've travelled on their motorcycles would have some interesting stories, maybe Ed March or Nick Sanders?

[@Ps5GamerUk]

Good conversation - would be nice to see timestamps for different topics/questions , thanks

[@LuisSantos-dk1ox]

I liked it, was a good start. I have a couple of thought i didn't like, like you talking more than your guest, let him answer the question i felt you were giving to much input . Also the podcast length is to long, i tried to watch it all but is to long. But i know from here on out, you will improve on your own.

[@woooster17]

In my garage, working on my bikes…with the Baron & Neevsey chatting in the background.. Perfect! 😄🤙🏽

[@ninja12lawbreaker]

Changed oil, filter and air filter on mine today, sore back happily resting with a large scotch enjoying the same

[@majordelays4909]

why naked tho lol :D

[@steve00alt70]

I work on my bike outside as no garage

[@Terraceview]

It was great Chris, just let the guest speak a little more. Can't wait for the next one!

[@hinterlandrider5300]

Good stuff Chris! Worry less about the microphone. Every time you adjusted it, it already sounded good 👍

[@ChrisPlow]

Neevesy ….What an absolutely fabulous top bloke. Knowledgeable, down to earth, honest views, talented rider, no BS says it as it is and many a motorcyclist top reporter. If he has imposter syndrome we are all fucked. More pods please ✊🏍💨

[@JustForRita]

Love how Neevesy goes from interviewee to interviewer. He is great at putting others in the limelight. He is also the reason why I decided to buy my 22 panigale v4s, insane bit of kit.

[@jamsstar2010]

So good you bought 22 of them 😮

[@JustForRita]

@@jamsstar2010 😂 wish I had that much money to buy 22 of them

[@TIMHARTTT]

Not even Rossi, Marc and stoner combined can make me buy Ducati V4, the heat from the bike is absolutely ridiculous.

[@markharrison2484]

Love the bit where Chris is telling Neevsey how easy it is to knock out a bike review and Neevsey doesn’t even flinch.

[@scottmcpeek4132]

You could have run this podcast out to four hours and I'd have still listened to every bit of it. Neevesy is a gem of a person and a towering fount of knowledge. You've set a high bar for yourself with that one, Baron! Great work.

[@InfoAction_]

Imagine getting a guest on and talking about yourself most of the time... You're a funny man Chrissy

[@Andy-co6pn]

Go watch a Gypsy Tales podcast, Jase does that every time !

[@ampelec]

Haha was thinking the same thing.

[@KHender]

Completely ruined the interview talking more than Neevsy, a huge waste of an opportunity to interview and hear from an icon in the industry!

[@AntaresSQ01]

It's a podcast, not an interview, and if this is the relevant stuff Chris can talk to Neevesy about, let him, I was perfectly interested in Chris' view and impressions of racing and getting into journalism from someone's POV that's not very confident, and Neevesy POV in response to that from a long running professional background.

[@Albertalorian]

Maybe Neevsy wanted Chris to talk? ever think about that?

[@SaqibKhaliq]

Already listened to this on Spotify. Came here to give it a thumbs up anyway, so you can do more. Can you get Chris Northover on at some point?

[@marv2820]

Definitely agree on Chis Northover.

[@Juuul89]

+1 for Chris

[@rubenrodriguez4870]

Two of my favorite motorcycle guys for two hours...heavenly.

[@123MondayTuesday]

Neeves taught me to get knee down on a roundabout

[@Bugside]

I lowsided trying, got elbow down, shoulder, everything

[@frankensteinsgarage9632]

I remember that video, and I was exactly the same.

[@Handlethetruth666]

If you send him a email he show you how to get both knees down

[@Terraceview]

Anywhere else too?

[@steve00alt70]

you dont do that.....

[@carsbikespizza]

Neevesy.....indeed the master journo! Whenever looking at the next purchase he's the guy I go to first to check on reviews - he just "gets it" and translates his experience in the way I understand. Total legend - we bow to you lad

[@Andy_Bailey]

Really enjoyed this, two things, all the playing with the mic made no difference, sound was spot on. And as much as I can listen to you, I did want to hear more of mikes stories.

[@philmoore9326]

Neevesy …. Living legend !!! Hugely entertaining - well done 🎉

[@TheBarnz91]

Ed March aka c90 adventures!! Although you might not get along as he has spent years taking the piss out of gs riders like yourself lol! He’s got some amazing stories and a big loyal fan base!!

[@Mandem909]

Great shout!

[@bryansuperduke1290r]

The mic is going to end up in Neevesys mount!

[@tatari6627]

His voice is getting deeper and deeper into my ears.

[@simondepass4647]

🤣

[@westers1514]

Great first attempt, BVG, perhaps a few more questions to the guest so they can talk more, however this was very entertaining, and natural

[@Gintonious]

2 of the best bike journalists there is. Fantastic stuff!

[@TheRosycruxian]

Love Maestro Neeves 🌞

[@ahde3133]

2:08:18 The most sorted Race bike / Superbike with the best of the best components outside of MotoGP, WSB or BSB must be the BMW HP4 Race as you’ve said before on 44Teeth.

[@chriswest2290]

Neeves is such a nice chilled, laid-back guy, and a fountain of bike information. And always give the best and correct advice.

[@JB-spoke]

You couldn’t have chosen a better first guest! Love both of your work!! Cheers from America 🎉

[@obsidian....]

I've been waiting for you to have a go at this Baron 🙏🙏🙏

[@tomasmitful]

❤

[@elliotanderson4026]

Neeves has been the idol in the motorcycling journalism arena, glad you managed to get him on, MCN with him became so much better. Great podcast, would be nice to see some BSB/WSB racers interviewed maybe Troy baylis definitely a favourite 👍

[@davidnimmo5115]

Excellent episode Michael is a top bloke he instructed me on my Ducati M600 around Knockhill race track it was a great day.I miss not have a motorbike all the best.

[@steveho7668]

Brilliant! Love this Not sure who was interviewing who! Well done both of you! 2 genuine Guys sharing stories. Fantastic. Must be good because this is the first video of actually commented on in 3 years! Looking forward to the next one👍🏼

[@thetonetosser]

I remember that ad for a road tester in MCN. I had a subscription at the local newsagents. Read all the mags too. So glad now Neevsey got the job. He's a bloody natural.

[@wakajawaka44]

“Hello Delivery” real time podcasting! Thanks for leaving that little interruption in the video Chris. For me that made an excellent podcast with an excellent motorcycle journalist even more special!!

[@CarlosTilbury]

Great stuff Chris, excellent podcast and Neevesy was interviewing you a lot of the time, what an enjoyable 2 hours, Neevesy is such a nice chap, keep up the great content Chris.

[@PaulBaur]

Mic distance: 1 closed fist. Brilliant show. Thanks guys!

[@tonyhewitt1425]

This is what a Podcast is about, easily listening and time flies by. Well done on the choice of guest for the first one. Can only wonder what would have been said about the newly released R1300 GS Adventure...........

[@jameshealy4594]

This was fantastic, long form bike content is just great to hear and as an Aussie, I still gel more naturally with Brits than Americans. Love highside/lowside but this instantly felt more like two of my mates chatting than watching a show on the TV and I think that's a good thing.

[@autoblipper3546]

You guys decent from there though? Maybe

[@onemanmob6756]

Can't imagine a more spectacular launch of the podcast side of things! Also, in the world of 'shorts' I really enjoy long-duration content - be it videos or podcasts!

[@bucibeka]

It was so good to see and listen to 50 percent of my most beloved bikers! Interesting two and a half hour! Thank you for it!

[@Druezy]

Wonderful chat. Looking to get my first motorcycle next year and been watching so many videos from the both of you. Few people beating you up a bit in the comments, but thought this was really awesome. Especially for your first episode!

[@paulhope3401]

I've watched all the moto journalists... but Neevesy is still the most interesting, watchable... best content by a country mile... and he is an amazing human being to boot.

[@Shrekeo]

I can't believe Neevesy had imposter syndrome! He is the absolute pinnacle of motorcycle journalists. I loved this BVG! 👍🏻

[@duclife1059]

This is an excellent first crack. Exceptionally insightful

[@paulbryan1094]

Great format and just the right chap for the first foray into this format. Think you’d get on with Chopsey and have a good laugh.

[@terrynicholson9273]

I remember that MCN competition and was tempted to enter but I had a steady job at the time (which folded up about a year later) and voted for Neevsey as he was the home town boy for here in Kent and because I knew his brother. They definitely got the best bloke for the job though. I have seen him at a few trackdays since and we were once running similar pace (about 2007? ish) then he suddenly got loads better....and I didnt!

[@damienpeckham2834]

This video has come up this week, likely due to the algorithms and my regular visits recently to the 44 Teeth content. Chris is good in this, but noticeably more relaxed on camera now, a year later. Good video, and it's also given a newfound respect for Mr Neeves (not quite seen to the end yet, but looking forward to seeing the rest soon).

[@thecommentator6694]

Yet another new podcast... but this time hosted by someone that should definitely be doing a podcast! Great episode, also recorded just down the road from me 😎

[@nomad_lad]

Great job! I thoroughly enjoyed it, and what a first guest to have!! Two of my favourite personalities in the biking world.

[@morri03]

Love it. Please get the feed into apple so other podcast apps that use the apple directory can have you in their ears

[@nielszwering2414]

So nice to see this unfold, two legends. off to a great start.

[@R_0b123]

Well what a treat this was! 👍🏼

[@edwardfrench9925]

Just back from the bike show in London, the highlights being listening to Michael and Peter Hickman. I really enjoy Michael’s work, value his opinion and it’s great lovely to find someone humble in the internet. Keep up the outstanding work.

[@maxflight777]

I would have loved that ! TT is the world’s best event bar none …

[@maxflight777]

Louise Brady ? I was luck6 to meet her in 2011, utterly compelling girl !

[@Connors18931]

Ive never commented but watched all your videos for years.. after listening to how much time and effort you both put into giving us these videos i thought i'd better say thanks. Keep up the good work! 👍 - Connor

[@browners_28]

Hi Baron. Big lover of 44teeth here. The only thing I would say I really appreciate from podcasts is that they’re released regularly and at at the same time. Then I can look forward to them each week. Cheers

[@the_observer7141]

An interesting , relaxing couple of hours Chris because you both kept it normal with no ego’s bouncing off each other. Neevesy is a decent chap and easy to listen to and engage with which is exactly what you want. Id say, keep it real, be different and interview and just chat with normal people because everyone has a story to tell, which is the reason you set up “Good to Torque”👍

[@samuelgillard2196]

'Permission to torque'

[@BRMCaptChaos]

What a flyer to start on. My two favourite bike people, talking bikes.

[@steve00alt70]

Artificial Inteligence is leading the way for moto channels. There is no going back or looking back, its all looking to the present and looking forward.

[@geekcycle9368]

This was great! I sat here watching two industry greats talk bikes and honestly I could have listened for another couple of hours. Keep up the great content!

[@perrymiller6109]

Fantastic bit of content Chris and what a great first guest! Cheers both

[@silver-back1989]

Loved every second of it. Looking forward to the next one

[@TheMissendenFlyer]

You've got the set up bang on Chris - loved this, and a bonus that you have my favourite journo as your first guest - a fascinating conversation - especially the KZbin related stuff which is of course of interest to me. Although we come at this game from very different places and likely have different audiences I couldn't help myself agreeing with pretty much everything you said.....great start, keep 'em coming!!

[@bjorngb]

Heard Neevesy talked about this some time ago - I have been searching podcast apps for this. Great stuff

[@HardcorrAutoworx]

Really good podcast easy to listen to, great first guest British motorcycle journalism royalty! Look forward to the next one 👌🏼

[@robertsarghei9408]

Oh yea! A cup of tea and couple of ham sandwiches with this, perfect friday evening! Thank you Baron. Love from Romania.

[@clydelindsay6657]

I don’t watch pod casts much, but I’ve been sitting here watching these two people(both of which I like) for an hour and a half so far enjoying the conversation.

[@MrPeterDWatson]

Two very different personalities, but two of the most influential and entertaining motorcycle "gurus" in the biz. Loved it!!

[@garyjakemanbikes]

Brilliant 👍 looking forward to more!

[@tulligman]

Two of my favourite KZbinrs in the same room together 🍿 Great interview and thanks to Mike and Chris for all the great vids and insights down though the years.These guys child like enthusiasm for bikes certainly rubbed off on me and played a big part In me embarking on my own journey to becoming a biker some years ago.❤

[@curnobullen]

I really enjoyed this podcast. Brilliant first guest Chris, I’m looking forward to the next one.

[@markrivers2651]

Wow! Super excited to see this land on deck!!!! My two fave Moto peeps, and gents I hold in high regard! Can’t wait to watch it through. Thanks to you both in advance for taking the time to put this out there - think the world of you both and your respective combined efforts and time for the benefit of all of us bikers/petrol heads 🤩🙏

[@WinLoveCry]

Was just at MCN Motorcycle Show in London. Saw Mr Neeves, thought what a decent bloke. Always enjoy the bike reviews 😊... and it's due to his review I got the BMW s1000rr 😅

[@juzzpoxix]

Loved this! And since it is also on spotify where I normally listen to my podcasts I will most certainly add it to my following list.

[@waggi20]

Fantastic to listen to and learn. 😊

[@svanimir666]

This is great..one of most easy To listen to pods. IN THE WORLD

[@louithefly63]

Love the respect that they have to each other ❤

[@Rider_Tom]

Loving this content, and hope you continue to put out more podcasts with interesting guests! Listened to the full 2 hours whilst working from home.

[@nlmotor]

What took you so long! These kind of podcast really kickstart my need to ride my bike far more than I do now! Thanks guys! You two are master! P.s. audio is great

[@beanwithbaconmegarocket]

Neevesy is top of the pile among moto journalists. Total class.

[@SimonElliott-e5p]

Thanks really enjoyed this. Getting 2 people just talking about something they love is easy listening. Look forward to the next one. 👍

[@splodge57]

Loved Bike magazine, Motorcycle Sport, Motorcyclist Illustrated in the 70's and 80's and latterly Superbike magazine. Then it all went downhill with track tests and launches. Now we have a great choice on youtube, real bikes on real roads and its free! Nice chat, cheers.

[@StuHNomadBiker]

Great 👍 loved it, Neevsey is a top lad. Whenever i watch his content, it's like im listening or chatting to a mate

[@jh9493]

Fantastic first podcast 👍 a very natural and insightful chat 🙂

[@Wattsy94]

We need a part 2 for sure! Top bloke old Neevsey! And you're right, you've barely scratched the surface. I struggling to watch a podcast, because in my opinion there isn't really anything exciting about watching people talk? But this was good, look forward to the next guest, Chris

[@johningle8850]

Thank you for doing this .. enjoyed every minute … top job

[@doug3011]

brilliant ..been thinking for ages Chris would be superb at this great work

[@wretchedrider2157]

Züper důper job!! Watched the whole 2hrs. This is also "watchable" in the background as you complimented your guest as a format he had stumbled into.

[@Paul.-Amanda.22]

Really enjoyed hearing from a 90s legend and Chris you weren’t bad either 👍

[@exup100011]

loved it , didnt look like a first go ,looking forward to more !

[@joeeasterling5652]

I love what both you and Neevesey do. Both are different in the way you deliver information. 44 Teeth is pure entertainment, while what MCN does is more serious. The closest we have here in America is Ian at Big Rock Moto. As far as the nearest to the humor and monkeyshines of 44 Teeth is Josh at Shadetree Surgeon. I wish both of you continued success in all you do.

[@mikeritchie5500]

What a brilliant idea, Neevsey the goat and the Baron, great contrast lovin the insights👍

[@paulbudford]

Neevesy is a class act. And a great first guest Chris. 👌

[@bellend69]

Great podcast. Loved it. Like a chat between mates. Keep them coming.

[@martinmoran89]

Listening to this as I work and clean my Super Duke in my garage. Such a good listen and good luck with it Chris

[@Gsrider65]

Really enjoyed that Chris, looking forward to the next one 👍

[@Organon1980]

This was just a joy to watch. Almost felt too short actually.

[@leeh6816]

Great conversation listened to while cleaning the bike. Really enjoyed it. Keep up the great work 👍

[@bennichol6391]

This was top class for a first podcast! Charley Boorman or Ewan McGregor would have some stories to tell, or you never know Keanu Reeves is an interesting character who loves bikes.....

[@Nomikeal]

Always happy to have another bike podcast!

[@JIMWSMITH]

Lovely job , really enjoyed this , looking forward to future podcasts.

[@michaelpyro87]

Wouldn't mind listening to you and 2MoroRider. Good podcast to listen too on a boring drive through Belgium and Netherlands.

[@Martyn-NFFC]

Well done guys, loved this.

[@dankorolyk5917]

Absolutely a brilliant and entertaining job Chris,looking forward to seeing more.

[@thabigkahoona]

Excellent first go at it Chris, and no better guest. This was legitimately fun to listen to.
