Mikey And Al Podcast Special Guest Vinnie DiMartino 1

[@Cold__Soup]

Always good to see Mikey and vin.. both look healthy and happy! Vin was always one of my favorites on OCC along side Rick.

[@Młotek-Performance]

Yes Love from Germany ❤❤❤

[@josecora4219]

Vinnie thanks for the entertainment. I loved the old show with your interaction with the guys. You and Rick kept the show grounded. It wasn’t the same without you. Glad you all are doing well. I enjoyed the interview.

[@joshrvcardjoseph7438]

My wife saw Mikey at gas station in Galesburg Illinois, he held door for them and said hi to my daughter. Truly a genuine guy! Vinny was always one of our favorites on the show!

[@angelitoedwards4495]

I used to work in Galesburg small word

[@angelitoedwards4495]

Small world I meant

[@Jaxsinholt]

Boring story, who gives a shit

[@jamesjudd6577]

I had directv installed years ago. I came home and the guy was still there. I said hey, whats going on? He goes I cant stop watching this show! It was OCC. we watched 30 minutes together before he finally left. was the first season

[@PawPawGreg]

I just finished watching American Chopper from start to finish. The last few years were definitely dull in terms of what OCC was putting out. Junior was doing some cool things, and thank God Vinnie and Cody were a part of a lot of that. Great to see Mikey and Vinnie doing well and looking healthy. These two and Rick really made the show worth watching and I'd watch a show with just them if it were ever a thing.

[@larryobrian3430]

I was listening to this interview out in my garage and noticed my Large round orange OCC clock hanging on the wall in my garage…. These guys may never know truly how large of an audience they reached. Love hearing Vinnie’s candidness and genuine openess sharing w/ Mikey. In this age of bringing back popular movies and tv shows, wish that a concept could come together for an OCC reunification show.

[@TheStestone]

Good to see people are healthy and in the right mind space

[@PeterPorsche1]

I always admired Vinnie and Rick for their craftsmanship. These are the real ppl you meet and workshops that you can learn from by listening and watching. I always hated the drama.

[@stevenlaxton3618]

Vinny is a great friend. His incredible ability to tell a dangerous story and still convey its hilarity to us idiots, while still keeping discretion and not outting anyone is absolutely astounding.

[@V-max97]

Being in Jersey I’m glad I got to see all the shops and stores back in the day. Regardless of people’s opinion of the show it got a lot of people in riding and motorcycles to me that’s pretty significant.

[@TheEclecticHandyman]

I was just re-watching the Comanche bike episode (my all-time favorite bike) the other night, and Vinnie your dad came in to see the bike, and you all put him to work 🛠 You look EXACTLY like him these days it's uncanny. I thoroughly enjoyed your insight from those early years and you are always are upbeat and positive, such a great attitude! Thanks for being on the podcast!

[@sonofsammydavis2751]

Awesome podcast! Couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this up. Thanks guys!

[@Johnny53kgb-nsa]

I always liked OCC. I still try to watch old replays. Junior designing, Vinnie and Rick building. Good to see Mikey and Vinnie together. Thanks!

[@MrG732]

I have every season on my itunes account. Always loved the show since day one

[@BrexonX]

I miss Mikey and Vinny's interactions, man. That brought back some good memories from the show. I love seeing them together. Vinny should go back on 1,000 more times!

[@pheynx7573]

Sounds just like my dad. He could fix and work on just about anything. He was a truck driver as well. He did that for about 40 years.

[@beanballshazam]

Seeing you brings back so much memories of you Vinny. The spitball was classic. My favorite was Comanche bike when the welder kept hitting the paint. Still remember that episode. Also when you were talking about Don driving.

[@philipmazzuca2269]

I remember Vinny from the car scene…….. still the same humble guy and always a smile and wave at Adam’s Farms 🇺🇸

[@pjmoody]

Great to see Mike and Vinnie. Thanks for sharing.

[@wespeterson4910]

So awesome to see boys !!! He'll yes !

[@Peanutdenver]

Brings back some good memories as a kid watching OCC with my uncle...good vibes for real, despite some of the chair hurling and insult slinging by Senior to Junior.

[@jivenhoe]

Great to see Vinny and Mikey again! Al doin a good job trying to keep the train on the tracks with the questions. Please do a bunch more vin!

[@Guns_N_Gears]

Love this!! Great to see you two together again 👍

[@DeltaV3]

Ahh this takes me back. Thanks for the memories guys. 👍🏻

[@MichaelRei99]

I’m sure there were good times and bad times at OCC but it was a hoot watching you JR and Mikey when you were working together. It’s always good to see you guys!

[@antoniomarc7174]

Great pod cast awesome to see you all together again I’m looking forward to more like this…👍👍👍

[@yahir1018]

Vin I grew up watching you guys ! Fcking great memories !!!

[@VolsFan2112]

Absolutely love this! Grew up watching American Chopper, was one of my favorite shows for sure!

[@MrGooseTTV]

Your looking well Vince and its great to see you on the Podcast. Was great watching the show from the UK. Also no matter what happened it's great to hear you all talk about it all

[@grominwithrob1339]

Man, I love these guys. My favorites in my order was Vinnie, Jr, Mikey, Rick. Thats it, i hated the drama with the show, i just liked seeing the guys hanging out working on stuff.

[@CraigVanSickleAK]

Great to hear you guys reflect, thanks for sitting down together.

[@kishdogg1594]

Mikey and Vinnie’s shenanigans made the show great every week. Glad to see you guys are doing well

[@bigmalsworld]

One of the funniest moments ever was when Mikey drove into seniors pond pure gold. Wish I saw you lads when you came to Australia 🤙🏼

[@flylikeaneagle3676]

Great podcast. Loved the show back in the day. Great to see mickey and vin healthy and well👍

[@OUTLAWinTX]

Talk about a blast from the past. Man this brings back memories.

[@DavidWilliams-u6o]

Great to see Mike and Vin! That was entertaining, and several stories made me laugh hard. The drill sergeant and broken headboard deal was hilarious!

[@Mr24NOFX]

I was like let me just check this out and see what they’re talking about. Ended up watching the whole thing. Great stories

[@rickchavez5822]

Good to see those guys again

[@jtaylorb88]

Not quite halfway in and Mikey is beyond lit, they even try to hide by barely show him.

[@rarecoolitems]

We neec another updated podcast with Vinnie and mike. Very good interview

[@likethesun100]

I loved that show. My dad and I always watched the new episodes each week.

[@BOSS7871]

You gotta go on again soon Vinny!! Your a Legenddd!!!

[@archivestereo]

It resonated because it was a good show and you cared about the characters. The bikes were secondary especially when they all became corporate bikes.

[@sodapop8408]

Vinnie D and Mikey my two favorite OCC guys.

[@pedaltheglobe419]

As far as what made OCC relatable I agree with Vinny on the family dynamic. So many families were similar but maybe not as extreme as the Teutel's even though most didn't publicly admit it. I feel the willingness to put it out there people respected.

[@djbryanc]

oh man as a record collector i'm going nuts seeing those records stacked like that lol

[@jrb6610]

Really enjoyed the podcast. Nice hearing from Mike & Vinnie.

[@jeffalleshouse9783]

Love seeing you guys good stuff been a fan since beging !!!

[@nomatterwhatapparel]

Yaaaasssss!!!!!!!!!!!!! The band is back together! lol

[@noahschwartz4754]

Man Mike and Vinnie reunited again I miss those two some of the funniest people on the show it would be cool to have more of the guys from the show

[@RamsinGabriel]

You 2 were the reasons why I tuned in. I didnt like all the old man/junior stuff. This show was always Mikeys personality and Vinnys art with machines

[@NYCRover54]

Grew on these guys and it’s cool they are still friends the fighting was terrible but they were so huge during that time wow time flew by

[@ricksmusicworld711]

This was an AWESOME podcast, had no idea Paulie and Vin duked it out! 😮 Love the stories, so mad they did not at least give Vin or Mikey the tins from the Mike and Vin bike, that's some bullshit right there. If Mike and Vin started another show the world would watch including me. Great stuff. felt like I was watching OCC again! 😊

[@mattcanfield6384]

Good to see you guys still friends

[@wirefeed3419]

I know there are a lot of haters of OCC but I remember I was hooked on the builds of early days with Rick, Vinnie and Paul, they really were excellent together. The Senior crap was just crap and the ultimate undoing of the show. This Podcast has reminded me I have all the DVDs, where TF did the time go, maybe a good time for an occ memory marathon.

[@johnbillings861]

Great to see you vinnie

[@MichaelRei99]

Michael is such a great soul! I would love to meet him at some point.

[@teddysgunshop2318]

Love Vinny and mikey

[@paulstoyek381]

Hello Vinnie..Just found your channel what a treat..By the way, I have a chopper and it needs a complete new wire harness..Are you up to it..🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

[@Timberns]

Really miss Mikey, Vin and Rick… I can live without the drama but Mikey did a good job trying to offset it with levity and good hearted entertainment

[@vwandtiny3769]

I worked at Popp's cycle in Walden....

[@chrischapel9165]

i am a barber and so was my Dad...My Dad had a very upscale Barbershop in Flint Mi etc... His partner talked my father into hiring me , against his better judgement... needless to say my Dad appears at my door one day and said " it ain't workin, I've got to fire you!" So to Vinnie's point I definitely could relate to the shows backstory HOWEVER I enjoyed the builds and looked forward to next week project advancements.

[@DonaldMeyers-v8c]

Flint Town! Good on you! I am from north of flint but work there

[@thomashorner7474]

love to see RICK P. on here.

[@TheWarehouseSeries]

Enjoyed this

[@skatedurr]

amazing ty!

[@burningkarma]

How relatable is Vinnie? Him and Rick were always my favorites on American Chopper for that reason. Just a couple of guys that get up everyday and go to work. Nothing pissed me off more on the show than when Senior pretty much threw the title of "janitor" on Vin and tried to send him home for not keeping the shop clean while he was trying to meet a deadline on multiple bikes. That and "you wouldn't have nothing if it wasn't for me". I don't know how he put up with that. Once season 3 and 4 rolled around he was looking more and more unhappy.

[@xtraflo]

Dude - You were my Favorite Person on the whole show!! The episodes you were absent, the shows felt Empty...

[@GuySasha2022]

I liked this show and American Hot Rod

[@tf68charger]

Awesome podcast

[@xtraflo]

Vinnie - you ought to do a little documentary on you building or rebuilding a Car or Motorcycle or something??

[@clb_52]

Self taught mechanics are the best

[@rmw9242]

Vinnie is just a great dude

[@eddiesica3649]

Big part of my life!!!!!

[@ReeseND]

Glad i found this podcast. Love it! Is this available as a podcast other than on KZbin (apple, spotify, etc...)? Having an issue finding it on other platforms?? Thanks in advance if you can help!

[@markbeer5125]

This would be so much better if you guys would just tell the stories with all the details!

[@skullyghost]

mikey and vinny were the best on the show i miss mikeys antics

[@nebulae87]

VANCE definitely looking like an Italian boss haha 🚬🇮🇹

[@shanem2059]

I love all types of coffee ☕️

[@dannydanko4627]

LONG overdue!! Dont have time to listen now but ill be back later today!

[@jtaylorb88]

Man those were the days of watching occ. They got so big then to nothing but a building that is left of the defunct business.

[@bighands675]

Hope all is well vin

[@officialspaceefrain]

Wooooo 🎉

[@mooneyes109]

Get rid of ‘Al’ and the other guy Nick. Horrible questions and constantly interrupting. Let Mikey take the reigns and run with it. Al asks questions like he’s never seen the show. 🙄Otherwise great to hear Vinnie and Mikey again!

[@fluffylittlebear]

Yeah I'm not usually one to criticize, but "don't interrupt the guest" should be the #1 rule of a podcast. He was interrupting constantly. It's like dude... just let him talk. Let him finish his story.

[@NWI_Steel]

The interrupting made it almost unwatchable

[@cmase1991]

Al stop stepping on the conversation lol

[@9thGenerationCajun]

My 2 favorite people from the show Mikey & Vinnie. Funny thing I feel like I've had 6 degrees of separation with you guys, When the Fire Bike debuted in New Orleans in the Super Dome it was next to a Fire Truck (Spirit of Louisiana) my brother built , Then you and Paulie came to Baton Rouge and filmed with at a gun shop that I was a member of (red jacket, I don't blame you for selling your shotgun, F#&% that guy!) I just realized I'am commenting on your channel Vinnie 😂 my bad. One other thing you mentioned Van Dam, In 1993 Hard Target was almost filmed at my dad's Swamp Tour business, Producers wanted to use it as his house in the movie but we didn't have room for the helicopter scene. Small world

[@willysalmon7998]

I could only imagine how loud that fire truck siren was inside the building 😂🤣

[@roytaylor6519]

That's hilarious ya'll smoked weed I always wondered if ya'll did.

[@krasspenn]

You guys switch Camaras too often, gets dizzy. We obviously know when the others are speaking as they have different voices.

[@SPACE-IS-FAKE-777]

Occ could make a comeback if they produced an affordable line of bikes that you can actually ride!!!! Competition drives the economy

[@arsimahmetaj6272]

Miss that show and you guys

[@richrent]

Awesome

[@NWI_Steel]

Man, its sad how much Mikey's memory is fried from substance abuse 😮

Where are ya Vin? how about a vid once in a while? 👍

[@Docstantinople]

Probably in food coma from eating all those cheese burgers

[@michaeleads9294]

Met Vinnie, Rick and Cody in New Orleans at the bike show. Great guys and so down to earth.

[@sacongo1624]

Vinny's young kid Vince could have a six-figure income just youtubing Vinny shop.

[@scottk8244]

This pod was great, well, except for Al never allowing you and Mikey to elaborate, that was kind of annoying

[@user-ll7fv6tu7k]

The flipping from person to person was unwatchable. Just have everyone up in split screen.

[@nelsoninman3678]

Just close your eyes and listen

[@richardmorris7063]

You guys should hop on the scoots one time for shits & giggles.

[@MissDixon]

❤
