Hosted by Ted, Tim, Chris & Justin · EN
The Motorcycle Men Podcast is filled with a high level of brotherly silliness and foul language, not unlike that of you and your buddies at the bar. If curse words and sound effects are not your thing... Then the host has some great interviews with industry professionals, Authors, Entertainers, World Travelers, fellow podcasters, YouTube heroes or regular riders like yourself. The Motorcycle Men.... saying stupid crap so you don't have to.

If it’s got wheels, weirdness, or a story, we’ve talked to it.We’ll also dive into the National Days Calendar because apparently May is everything month: Paper Airplane Day, Blueberry Cheesecake Day, National Hamburger Month, National Barbecue Month, National Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month, and even International Drum Month. Basically, if you can celebrate it, someone decided May was the time.Then it’s on to the stats — 468,879 downloads and counting. North America still leads the pack, Chicago is still our biggest U.S. city, and yes… we lost our listener in the South Sandwich Islands. But we picked up folks in Iceland, Bermuda, Cuba, Zimbabwe, and even Madagascar. The global weirdness continues.We’ll hit the BINIT, talk about Woody’s Ireland adventure, E15 fuel approvals, Harley‑Davidson products that aren’t motorcycles, and the Motorcycle Podcasters Challenge.So grab a coffee, settle in, and let’s talk about why these old Harleys still get under our skin and stay there.
