    CHAPTER 417 Ft. Charley Boorman

    Charley Boorman sits down with Jase to tell the real story behind Long Way Round, the trip with Ewan McGregor that changed the motorcycle adventure genre forever. From how the idea came together over dinner in London, to the Dakar Rally training that got him ready, to riding the Road of Bones across Siberia to Magadan, Charley walks through the trip that shaped his life. They get into what four months on the road with Ewan actually taught him, how the Sky One deal came together, the Long Way Down and Long Way Up follow-ups, riding Australia end to end, 53 miles of hard enduro at the Isle of Man with David Knight, and what makes Jett Lawrence and Marc Marquez operate on a different level than the rest of us. Whether you've watched every Long Way series or you're finding Charley for the first time, this is the interview that goes deeper than the shows ever could.

    CHAPTER 416 Ft. Shane Lynch

    Boyzone’s Shane Lynch joins us for Chapter 416 of Gypsy Tales. One of the faces of one of the biggest boy bands of the ’90s, Shane is also a serious drift racer, car builder, and lifelong motorsport fanatic. In this chapter, he sits down with Jase to talk about growing up in Dublin, joining Boyzone and being launched into ’90s superstardom, the moment fame and ego took over, and how finding a deeper sense of purpose changed his perspective. They also get into his first Porsche 911, the car shop he runs, why he fell in love with drift cars, the backyard supercross track a friend built for him, and what he sees in Jett Lawrence and the current state of supercross.

    CHAPTER 415 Ft. Dan Bewley

    Chapter 415 of the Gypsy Tales Podcast features British speedway rider Dan Bewley sitting down with Jase to explain what it actually feels like to race a bike with no brakes, four laps at a time, at 70 mph, inches away from three other riders. Dan breaks down the crash that shattered his femur, his dream of becoming a professional motocross racer before switching to speedway, and what it took to build a career in a sport most Americans have never seen. They also get into the new Kawasaki two-stroke concept everyone's talking about, life racing in Poland where speedway is massive, Russian riders being banned from top-level competition, Ken Roczen finally becoming a Supercross champion, and whether Haiden Deegan really has what it takes to beat Jett Lawrence.

    CHAPTER 414 Ft. Greg Minnaar

    Greg Minnaar is one of the greatest downhill mountain bikers of all time. From winning his first UCI World Cup at 19 to becoming World Champion just weeks before his 40th birthday, he spent more than two decades at the top of the sport. In this episode, Greg looks back on the defining moments of his career, from growing up racing motocross in South Africa to helping build Honda's iconic downhill MTB program. We dive into the Sam Hill era, how Aaron Gwin changed downhill racing, the development of Honda's legendary bike, and what it really took to stay at the top for over 20 years. Greg also opens up about nearly quitting at 20, living with ADHD as a professional athlete, the sacrifices required to keep winning, and the pressure of racing in front of a home crowd. If you're a fan of downhill mountain biking, motocross, or high-performance athletes, this is an inside look at the mindset, rivalries, and legacy of one of the sport's true GOATs.

    CHAPTER 413 Ft. Luke Tarrant

    Luke Tarrant left a great job in finance and walked away from the corporate world, knowing he didn't want to spend his life stuck in an office. He sold everything he owned and spent years riding his motorcycle across the world, chasing the kind of adventure few people ever experience. On a ride through Colombia, everything came to a screeching halt when he was involved in a motorcycle accident that left him fighting for his life. After weeks in a Colombian hospital, Luke ultimately had his leg amputated. Since then, he's grown a massive global social media following by sharing his journey, inspiring millions with his adventures, resilience, and outlook on life. In Chapter 413, Jase and Luke dive into the motorcycle crash that changed everything, the incredible strangers who came together to help save his life, crossing the Darien Gap by boat, ending up at a cartel party in Mexico, learning to walk and ride again with a prosthetic leg, and why he refuses to move on until he returns to Colombia to finish the ride.

    CHAPTER 412 Ft. Randy Mamola

    Randy Mamola won 13 Grand Prix races and finished runner-up in the 500cc World Championship four times. He joins Jase to look back on racing Eddie Lawson as a kid, Kenny Roberts changing the sport, the Honda NSR500, Mick Doohan's career, and the story behind the Ferrari Cagiva insisted he take despite never winning a race for them, the one he tried to turn down. They also break down whether MotoGP has reached its ceiling before the 850cc era, which manufacturer is best positioned for the future, who would really be fastest on equal machinery without electronics, Randy's 20 years on the two-seat Grand Prix bike, and the work behind Riders for Health, the charity he co-founded.

    CHAPTER 411 Ft. Billy Bolt

    Billy Bolt is one of the most recognisable personalities in motorsport, and not just because he's one of the fastest, most technically gifted off-road riders on the planet. The 6-time SuperEnduro World Champion and 2021 Hard Enduro World Champion has built a fanbase that's just as loyal to his personality as his results, and in this episode he brings all of it. Jase and Billy get into why he thinks motocross riders are scared to show their personalities, why hard enduro still isn't as big as supercross (and what enduro has that moto doesn't), the hand injury that turned into a nightmare, becoming a father, the insanity of Erzberg and the Isle of Man TT, modern traction control on dirt bikes, why he started vlogging, and his unfiltered takes on the biggest names in moto, including why Haiden Deegan just doesn't care and his Chase Sexton conspiracy theory.

    CHAPTER 410 Ft. Nic Hamilton

    Nicolas Hamilton was once pushed through the Formula 1 paddock in a wheelchair by his older brother, Lewis Hamilton. Years later, he stood on the podium in the British Touring Car Championship, one of the toughest racing series in the world. Born with cerebral palsy, Nic had to fight for every step, every opportunity, and every chance to prove he belonged in motorsport. Once the visor came down, he wasn't seen for his disability, he was judged as a racing driver. In Chapter 410 of the Gypsy Tales Podcast, Nic opens up about growing up with cerebral palsy, the Hamilton family's parenting, his relationship with Lewis, dating and self worth, overcoming a gambling addiction, the financial reality of racing, earning his first BTCC podium, and what's next in 2026. This is one of the most honest and inspiring conversations we've ever had.
