    CHAPTER 399 Ft. Jerry Robin

    Jerry Robin was paralyzed six days after his first Gypsy Tales episode dropped. One year later, he's back — breaking down the physics of his crash at MetLife Stadium, the moment sensation deleted from his body inch by inch, what it was actually like in rehab, the suicidal thoughts he doesn't hide from, and how two rounds of experimental stem cell treatment are rewriting what doctors said was a complete spinal cord injury. Jerry Robin is a professional supercross racer and FXR athlete who competed in the 450 SX class. He suffered a complete thoracic spinal cord injury at Supercross in New York in April 2025 and has spent the year since undergoing stem cell treatment, rebuilding his life, and joining FXR full-time in a remote role. In Chapter 399, Jerry Robin reveals: - The exact mechanics of his crash — why going straight up instead of forward changed everything - The moment his body shut down, sensation deleting from his chest to his feet in real time - Suicidal thoughts in early rehab, and the wife who drove 1 hour 20 minutes to Casa Kalina nearly every day to save his life - Two rounds of stem cell treatment — what they gave back, including diaphragm function that nearly killed him when a blood clot released during his first meal after surgery - Why he left rehab early and chose to learn by making real mistakes at home - Standing 20–30 minutes a day on a Smith machine with eyes closed, visualizing every step of walking - Adler Caudle, Road 2 Recovery, and the people who showed up when it counted - His new remote role at FXR managing amateur teams and accounts - The privateer debate — Josh Greco spent $60K in entry fees to make 3 mains, and what that tells you about the sport - 450 Supercross Championship predictions — Lawrence, Hunter, or Eli?

    CHAPTER 397 Ft. Jade Dungey

    Jade Dungey is one of the most elite supercross mechanics in the paddock — and the man Red Bull KTM trusted with Eli Tomac's factory bike. In this chapter, he breaks down the inside story of Eli's shock move to KTM, how picky Eli really is on bike setup, how expensive a factory 450 actually is, why Chase Sexton walked away from the team, and the moment his brother Ryan Dungey made the decision that changed the brand forever. Jade Dungey is Ryan Dungey's older brother, a championship-winning supercross mechanic, and now Eli Tomac's wrench at Red Bull KTM. He's been inside the factory for the biggest shifts in the sport — from Ryan's KTM era to Eli's arrival — and has a rare view of what really happens behind the pit wall. In Chapter 397, Jade Dungey reveals: - Finding out Eli Tomac was joining KTM - What it actually takes to prep a factory bike for Eli vs. Aaron Plessinger - How expensive a factory dirt bike really is - Eli Tomac going through clutches and why KTM gave him a cable clutch - Why Chase Sexton walked away from KTM - Did Eli Tomac save KTM — and the moment the brand almost closed its doors - Ryan Dungey's crazy decision to join KTM and why Roger DeCoster gave him the chance - Whether supercross is turning into Formula 1 - How Jett Lawrence is breaking the mold and how Haiden Deegan will transition to the 450 class - Jade's first mechanic gig, brotherly fights with Ryan, and winning Detroit with Aaron Plessinger Enjoy Chapter 397 Ft.

    CHAPTER 394 Ft. Wes Williams

    Motocross filmmaker and Vurb Moto co-founder Wes Williams joins the Gypsy Tales Podcast for a nearly 3-hour conversation about building some of the most iconic videos the sport has ever seen. From the James Stewart helicopter shoot that became the most-watched motocross video in history, to launching Vurb Moto alongside Brent Stallo and Andrew Campo — Wes has shaped how an entire generation of moto fans experience the sport. In this chapter, Wes opens up about investing every dollar he had into a film he thought would make him a million, the Red Bull projects that changed his career trajectory, filming Ryan Dungey's Homegrown and Justin Barcia's Platinum, the 2010 Motocross of Nations weekend that changed his life, and what he's building now with the Prospect App and Draft Day — a sponsorship platform connecting brands directly to amateur riders based on real data and real metrics for the first time. In this episode Wes breaks down the James Stewart helicopter shoot, growing up outside of motocross, his Loretta Lynn's run, how Vurb Moto started as an online magazine people laughed at, the Art of Flight's influence on moto filmmaking, filming Malcolm Stewart's Dream Ride, Cole Seely at Zaca Station, Red Bull Imagination, MX Sports Center in 2005, and why he believes the Prospect App will change amateur motocross forever. 🏍 MOTOSPORT.COM: https://www.motosport.com/?rstr=62946&ls=8vu&utm_source=roster&utm_medium=influencer&utm_campaign=-jasonmacalpine-62946 🧤 FIST HANDWEAR: http://www.fisthandwear.com CODE: GYPSYGANG for 15% off 🔵 DESTINATION YAMAHA — Explore bikes, tours, and experiences: https://www.yamahamotorsports.com/destination-yamaha 💧 Stay hydrated with SOTA Fuel — Order yours today: https://sotafuel.com/products/sota-fuel-hydration-30-pack?variant=42103959945258 🛒 Shop Gypsy Tales merch: https://us.gypsy-tales.shop/ 🎙 SUBSCRIBE TO THE PODCAST: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCsBGR5UR7UCyLvNbHSxisFQ 📸 FOLLOW GYPSY TALES ON INSTAGRAM: @gypsytalespodcast 📩 Business Inquiries: ethan@gypsy-tales.com 🔥 CHAPTERS: 00:00:00 Intro 00:02:18 Welcome Wes Williams to Gypsy Tales 00:03:07 Wes's Most Impactful Shoot 00:06:40 The James Stewart Helicopter Shoot 00:17:17 Wes Williams's Loretta Lynn's Run 00:31:00 Building the Prospect App 00:43:30 Prospect App Features — Draft Day 00:50:09 The Investment Behind Filming 01:06:04 How Gypsy Tales Ended Up in America 01:17:55 The Art of Flight — Red Bull Movie 01:19:53 Supercross Media Has Changed 01:31:11 Complacency Gets You Beat 01:37:25 UFC Media Experience vs Supercross 01:47:56 Jase's Brand SOTA Fuel 01:49:59 This Will Change Amateur Motocross Forever 01:55:40 Shoutout Reegan Heighton 02:02:27 Gypsy Juice SOTA Fuel Taste Test 02:08:53 Filming Dream Ride Ft.

    CHAPTER 393 Ft. Hunter Yoder

    Hunter Yoder was an amateur phenom with his pro career laid out in front of him. A guaranteed factory deal with Geico Honda, then the team folded overnight, leaving Hunter and his family scrambling, not knowing if they'd ever reach the level they once dreamed of in Supercross and Pro Motocross. After years of rebuilding from the ground up, Hunter is now on Club MX Yamaha with Brandon Haas, Chad Reed, and Daniel Blair all pushing to get him on the podium. This is his story.
