Encore: Will Poulter, Dave Beran, and The Bear 52:22

9 days ago52:22

52:22

Season 3 of the smash hit FX/Hulu show “The Bear” roared to life just days ago, but Will Poulter (the actor who plays fan-favorite Luca) and 2014 F&W Best New Chef Dave Beran had been prepping for weeks. Poulter — like his co-star Jeremy Allen White — staged with Beran at his Santa Monica restaurant Pasjoli to learn how to accurately portray a professional chef onscreen. The lessons went so well, Beran says he’d hire Poulter as a cook — even despite a messy mishap with a pastry bag. The two dished all about getting kitchen culture right on and offscreen, what it takes to be at the top of your craft, and the pure magic of a great restaurant service.

The Athertons have been powerhouses in the world of gravity mountain bike racing. So what do you do when your goals are to "just continue to win world championships". It's a nice problem to have, but we have seen others jump out of the sport to keep things fresh.
The Athertons went in a different direction. This is a little bit about how their pivoting kept the family on the move and a continuous success in downhill racing.

Heartbreak in Beijing~ The Shanaze Reade Crash 30:49

30:49

You can watch the Video on the story here: https://youtu.be/SboHc-tE_gk These are my thoughts and opinions on the most heartbreaking crash of the 2008 Beijing Olympics. Shanaze Reade, a teenage phenom, was dominating woman's BMX making her the favorite for the gold medal at BMX Racings debut in the Olympics. Coming out of retirement, the indomitable Anne-Caroline Chausson, brought competition to Reade that ended in the last corner of the 2008 Olympic BMX Finals. Support the show…

The First Rivalry of Formula One: Ascari vs. Fangio Pt. 1 23:08

3 years ago23:08

23:08

The year is 1951 and the points have come down to the final race in Barcelona. The greatest racer of all time lines up next to his rival in a newer more powerful Ferrari. This was the culmination of the just the second official Formula One championship season. The pre war Alfa Romeo's that dominated Grand Prix racing went head to head with Enzo Ferarri and his newly built monsters. Rivalries are essential to racing, knowing the stories the heart breaks and the passion of these legends helps ground yourself in how the world of racing works. Ascari and Fangio are the perfect example of two men who raced with different styles in a time period of change. They also laid the base that modern Formula One is based. Support the show…

Sound of Change ~ The story of the YZM400F 13:08

3 years ago13:08

In 1997 the deep throated sound of a four stroke graced the ears of all that attended the Supercross finals in Las Vegas. Amongst the choir of high pitched racing it was Doug Henry aboard the YZM400F that took the podium. While that moment in the Las Vegas night was the shining example of change in the bikes that would line the gate, the YZM400F itself had a story of its own. Support the show…

Pure Grit ~ Eugene Christophe at the 1910 Milan San Remo 13:33

3 years ago13:33

13:33

We, cyclists, are a little crazy. Finding new hills to put your lungs on the verge of exploding. New trails that actively try to figure out new and creative ways to break your bones. Even the bike that you call your best friend will seem to find the perfect moment to crush your spirit. We all find ways to make ourselves continue on as the world does its best to destroy us. Whether it's by having some internal conversation with yourself for two hours or shutting down any emotions you have, well prepared for the night terrors that will haunt you later that night. These are just two examples of what are known as Grit. In 1910 during the Milan-San Remo, a spring blizzard blew over the Turchino pass. A small, stern and very practical Frenchman by the name of Eugene Christophe showed the true depth a man with an endless tolerance for pain can endure. This story is a tale that you can look back on as your legs are on fire and you don't think you can go any further and tell yourself that, maybe, you need to think like a tiny turn of the century Frenchman.

Rivals: The story of Hinault, Fignon and Lemond - Part 1 26:13

5 years ago26:13

26:13

The epic finish of the 1989 Tour de France which ended in the tightest margin victory in the races history, just 8 seconds, was the culmination of a decades worth of rivalry, team camaraderie, and the career twilight of the racing master who took the young talents under his wing. While the decade ended with a dual of two champions, it started with Bernard Hinault, on the hunt for dominance. Powered by the French industry titans of Renault and Elf, Bernard Hinault led a charge to snag as many Tour championships as he could. Little did he know an injury would open up the opportunity of a lifetime. This led to a battle between Laurent Fignon and Bernard Hinault who left Renault to the newly created, hyped up, La Vie Claire team. Hinault would not only have to race against his young replacement but an up and comer in the form of the American, Greg Lemond. Support the show…

Privateers need Psychology too guys 20:51

20:51

I was reading an article on Cycling Tips about Dr. David Spindler and how he helps pro cyclists in the peloton most notably the former Dimension Data team. His interview was full of insight in what it was like to work with athletes at the highest level, with their needs and wants against their struggles with normal life. The idea of how much we as cyclists ignore out mental state as we grind through training and racing really hits home. Especially when you have responsibilities. Take a listen and think about taking care of your mind as begin your 2020 season. Support the show…

I dig into the benefits of being tied to a specific brand or staying free of influence. Being able to approach a sponsor by knowing everything there is to know about their product or having the ability to be a candid reviewer are two examples of being tied to a brand or not can bring. Also I want to know what goes through your head during those last 5 miles of a hard ride or race? The things that drive you when your body has thrown in the towel.

This week I dip my toes into the dangers of the hyped up crowdfunded bike companies of SpeedX and Sick Bicycle Co. Two companies with completely different paths but in the end the same outcome. Pinkbike and Cycling tips did great journalism on these stories. The privateer tip this week is to pick something unique and stick with it. Do something that will set you apart from the masses on the line then keep with it as trends change, it will help you brand yourself. Support the show…
