EPISODE 101 - UNBOUND Preview w/ Ian Boswell What up party people. Going to keep this intro short because this UNBOUND mega preview episode went way longer than usual and I want to get y’all into the goods stat. Ian Boswell joined us in the studio this week to talk all things UNBOUND and clear the air on some of contentious topics. We’re talking equipment setup, conditions, race strategy, you name it.

Episode 99 - Smashing Miles and Immunity, AI or Bust, and the Outlook Remains Bright for US XCO Racing What up party people. No funny business with weird hand stuff this week because Dizzle wanted another crack at the YouTube intro so I get to revert back to my normal into routine and not worry about how goofy I look doing so. We’re talking DJ smashing so many miles, the only stone left unturned was bolstering his dainty immune system, Dizzle taking a play out of John McCarthy playbook and...

Episode 98 - Pogačar’s Mix-n-Match Giro Kit, DJ’s Bike Fit Sorcery, Scott’s Return to Gravel, and The Traka 360… or is it the Traka 200? What up party people. Sorry, I don’t know why I just did that. Apparently we’re putting these things back on YouTube now because so many of y’all requested to not just listen to our dreamy voices each week but you actually want to see our beautiful faces too. SO I didn’t want to look like Will Farrel and not know what to do with my hands but I think...

Episode 96 - The Redemption Episode ft. Sea Otter Recap, Tire Talk, and More What up party people. Let’s just address the giant elephant in the room from the jump. Last weeks audio straight up sucked. I know it, you know it, and apparently every beer binging, cat loving internet troll also knows it too. Look, I did the best I could to try and salvage the entire episode while working with corrupted files but lesson learned, now I know to just scrap it rather than put out a dumpster fire...

Episode 95 - Sea Otter Classic Preview and Such LISTEN AT YOUR OWN RISK. What up party people. The recording was a little disjointed with half the crew traveling to Sea Otter and I was scrambling to make it home from a whirlwind of a few days of engineering work up in Minneapolis so excuse any interruptions as a result. So yeah, we’re talking Sea Otter and such.  If you have any questions or feedback for the show you can drop us a note at [email protected] or you can holla at ya...

Episode 94 What up party people. We had to record this one super early Monday morning so Scott could catch a flight to Cali for Tour of Redlands so if you’re a Patreon supporter this show is hitting y’alls earholes an extra couple days in advance. The conversations got a little off topic at times but for the most part we’re talking gnarly World Tour crashes, another absolute domination performance at Paris Roubaix, Dizzle’s BWR Utah mishaps, and would someone call the bully police on Scott...

What up party people. The Bonk Bros are back from our Mid South takeover and we have loads of stories coming out of the weekend that we get into in this episode. A big shout to all the fans of the show that came up to us over the weekend and expressed your stoke on what we do with the podcast. I’ll be honest, when I went to the gym first thing Monday morning and didn’t have a single person come up to me mentioning the podcast for the first time in 3 days it was kinda weird, y’all crazy fans...

Episode 89 - BWR AZ, TT Helmet Absurdity, Tire Pressure, and Inside Jokes What up party people. We’ve got a jam packed show for y’all this week.

Episode 84 - The Regurgitation Episode What up party people. So I dubbed this weeks show the regurgitation episode because it basically seemed like every discussion we had somehow found its way back to topics we’ve covered in the past and by the end, it just felt like a big bag of regurgitated bag of pod talk. But hey, the Bonk Bros banter is what y’all come here for so there’s no shortage of that. Hit us up with any feedback or questions for the show at [email protected] or you can...

What up party people. Shout to one of our listeners for sending in the clip from Family Guy that inspired the party people tag line - it took over a year for someone to finally bridge the connection. I don’t even like Family Guy but that was one of the one-liners I remember and it’s always stuck. So who knows, now that I’m outed, might have to come up with some other way of addressing y’all at the stop or maybe we’ll just stick with it. Anyways, with another slow week in the bike racing world...

What up party people. Happy fricken New Year. How in the world we’re entering our third year of podcast I have no idea but until this things blows up in or face or we finally just get too sick of each other, we’re going to keep this thing rolling. We decided it was about time we add just a liiiitle bit of structure to the madness and each came with a burning topic we wanted to throw on the table for discussion. None of us shared these with each other before so everything is still off the...

What up party people. Hope y’all are fitting all the holiday parties in you can this time of year because before you know it, it’ll be 2024 and we’ll be back to the races. Literally. We’ve got a shorter episode for y’all this week as I had an appointment to get to so I had to wrap things up early but if you’re anything like Scott then you’d much rather spend your precious time with family than listen to us buffoons ramble on about mindless crap for more than an hour at a time.    Hit us up...
