The man, the myth, the legend Ryan Hughes makes his second appearance on the podcast. His first time on the show he really did change the game for us. It was the first of our remote studio episodes and it exploded the podcast into a completely new realm. This time we sat face to face in the studio in Costa Mesa to run our podcast clock together to over 6 hours.

I met a gypsy I hope that people can just appreciate it I think I think people are appreciating because they see that he’s you know I mean maybe behind closed doors is something different but he seems like a very genuine kid you know just like but you look at the weekend you’ve got [ __ ] rinsed he makes a you know bit of a silly Podium I think what do you say did you did you you didn’t see this you see how you waved Kenny boy oh I saw that but yeah but what was that for just because he wanted to well I mean I I don’t know but what’d he say was for whoa so he said like he he thought it was he did the math in his head and he thought each Moto paid points so he wanted to put someone in between him but but he was wrong yeah yeah so but he’s doing the math ones right so then he says it on the podium and then then they’re like okay that’s not how it works and then I think being the nice sweet genuine kid that he is then I think he tried he made a joke being like Oh well Kenny’s a new dad so I thought I’d give him a baby gift maybe he can buy him a pimped out stroller or something yeah yeah and then people are flaming him for what whoa he just he missed you know though yeah yeah I I agree but but what did he what did he say wrong well he got this yeah that’s wrong okay two Motors I would think sometimes the same right two Moto’s points okay and if you wave somebody a buy and you wanted to make a joke because you already made [ __ ] 13 million dollars this year yeah yeah you know what are you guys just oh well he won the race we heard people’s feelings yeah do we hear puppy feelings I think so yeah yeah that’s a problem like people’s feelings got hurt because they could never do what he did yeah I mean I mean Jesus and that’s where I’m like and these smx’s these guys aren’t taking it that serious at all no I don’t they just it’s just good money and that’s it and that this it kind of irritates me a little bit that this series is happening one it’s so competitive to knock some some other series out but if you want to knock on if you don’t want your Riders to leave this series why didn’t you just put all this money into the Nationals and then you wouldn’t have the writers have to do three more races you know what I’m saying because now let’s just screwed up our donations and all these different things so you’re taking and then everybody wants to make these three races and all this stuff but then they’re they’re degrading the most the most historical race in our sport which is Motocross the Nations we need to show up there every single deer because it’s historical that’s that that’s like the blueprint you know what I mean to me it is and so you put three more races on here and put all this money in here because you don’t want people to go maybe do another series why don’t you just put the money into the Nationals it had been simple even half of it five million instead of 10 million all right let’s make why don’t you build what’s already there build that bigger well I think I think well I hear what you’re saying but I think that with those extra races and them all being under the one banner I think that’s what bought the money in mm-hmm so I I yeah I know what you’re saying but still there there’s a way there doesn’t need to be more races you know it’s just it’s just things you’re just tiring these guys out man I mean this sport is so hard and they’re just you can see it you can see it in the racers it’s like they’re just done they’re cooked yeah well dude look at Jet and Hunter first the first one that they didn’t look like that at all all year and it just looked like they just they didn’t want to be there but it was just like [ __ ] I because I think about just I mean I felt I don’t know if this analogy will hit but there was a point in time where when the podcast starts doing real like right around when you and then Brian and then we were just getting like millions and millions of views every single [ __ ] month and I’m like dude this is like forget about all it’s like I need to like this is hard to keep up yeah like how do you keep and if that’s right that that again intensity yeah again it’s easy you know it’s kind of easy to win but it’s how do you keep that keep that momentum going and you’ve got to find something it’s diff you know the analogy falls apart because they’re completely different things like what I’ve got to do to keep this going and what but it’s like you get faced with this thing of like [ __ ] me dead like now I I have to be this guy like I’ve this thing’s super successful the views are on the [ __ ] screen like if you want to know how I’m doing just go and look it’s on display and in the same way you want to know how a race is doing look at the results yeah and it’s like I think about being their age both those boys and winning both winning two championships jet doing a perfect season is think about the level that that sets of expect like the bar that you need to live this this could be it could be almost all downhill from here this season that they had could never be repeated again you know Hunter could maybe never win a championship again because he’s moving up to 450. Jet you know who knows maybe Sexton maybe you know whatever it is it just this this season can maybe maybe happen again so it’s almost like once you have something like this it’s almost like you’d almost be let down every year if it wasn’t this you know but yes I have to have your you know you have to be real about stuff and that’s what I’m doing things for the ride I know I know that this say this is a very finicky sport finicky time into uh be blessed honor what’s happening right now because anything anything can happen as everybody knows in the sports so but yeah I mean it would be tough and again the higher you are the farther you fall my friend yeah I mean yeah you know so that’s always you know everybody wants to be so famous I want to be so big okay but when you’re not and you’re not and again once you’re famous and once you’re big man ah it’s hard to stay there yeah and you gotta work like they say when you show on people hate to see the game yeah reinvent yourself all the time you know yeah yeah so uh but it’s yeah I don’t know it’ll be good it’ll be good I think I think Motocross is coming into a good a good a good sport as long as the promoters don’t just get too greedy for me you know that’s my only thing is greed yeah you know I don’t like greedy people I can’t I don’t just they don’t have they don’t belong anywhere and unfortunately that’s what runs the world in his greed but yeah well there’s God’s like you out there that have a message that have a Vibe and you you live what you say you’re uh you definitely a guy that sticks behind your words and uh I think that’s why people find you so captivating and compelling myself included I love every time I get to do this and uh yeah and and the thing is is that you know I don’t I don’t have a a I don’t have an enemy on Earth I don’t have one person on Earth that I have ill thoughts for feelings for or words for not one so because I always speak the truth and even if I speak the truth I’m still going to be your friend and I’ll still even I’ve had I’ve had some people talk [ __ ] about me you know some of my friends and everybody’s like what are you gonna do you get pissed I go no no I think I’m gonna do is just go tell them that I know and now every time that you see me you’re gonna know that I know that you talk [ __ ] on me but I’m still gonna be your friend I’m still gonna help you out and I’ll still do anything for you but you will know that I know that you talk [ __ ] on me okay we’re good you know so for me it’s like yeah I say this but I I still I’m still friendly with everybody you know don’t don’t take what I say in in and ruin something else with it but um also willing to lose friends in the sport that I’ve been friends with the high UPS in the sports that speak the truth I’m saying I’ll lose friends with you to speak a truth to a million people and not lie to a million people cover them up just be friends with one person because your so-called special you know so I guess that’s that’s where people get me is that uh you know I don’t care the consequence as long as I’m speaking the truth we are excited to announce the launch of our new membership site gypsytales.com packed with exclusive content and perks that you won’t find anywhere else this is your chance to become a part of the Gypsy gang and as a special bonus if you sign up to an annual membership you’ll be entered into the draw to win our custom built tc125 Gypsy gang

I wanted to see jett and kenny race at chicagoland that was the one and only thing that that upset me about the whole situation us fans dont care about how much money they have made this year or any of that we tune in ever week cause we want to see a battle and those battles get the veiws that write these guys checks
SMS was created to stop riders going to WSX. Keeping competitive SX a US sport is shit for the rest of the world
Sooo true…
Ryno is the man… love his mind set
This guy eats, and sleeps motocross. Use to love watching Ryan on team green with Emig, and Huffman go after McGrath. He speaks the truth is why most people listen.
😂😂 peoples feelings got hurt,people need to appreciate the talent we get to watch and shut your mouth about your feelings
If Chuck Norris raced moto his name whould have been Ryan Hughes
Begin having smx races during mx season using the race track of Nascar on top of the original great race tracks. All points towards outdoor championship
# of top pro commitments to outdoor season?
I remember seeing a atv motocross season that only had 5-10 pros because the rest was racing Mountain Dew series and outdoor games. When sxs racing began
How far does a million go at beginning a new series look at dirt late model racing. 5 main series offering big paydays.
We all have opinions I back them with points and sails to greatness it can be.
mxdn is a joke of a series. SMX is a better way to go. In fact im thinking they can cancel the mxdn and no one would care a t all Once in 4 years makes more sense.
Ryno always has & always will have my respect. He was truly great and was my favorite rider for all those years of my amateur career as a kid looking up to him and guys like Jeff Emig, Mike Laracco, Damon Huffman and Kevin Windham. Ryan was such a beast when a team Split Fire Kawasaki 125cc rider. I was at Steel City when his chain derailed and he pushed it across the finish line which Steel City always had that annoying little straight stretch on the side of that small hill the announcer tower was on and you made a hard right to go up that little hill to the finish line before then making a hard left turn. I will never forget him pushing that badass looking split fire kx125 up that hill with his SIDI boots which were a sponsor of mine as welll and the brand I preferred. Those split fire Kawasaki bikes imo were the coolest looking team bikes out of all the race teams. I even cut the photo out of the Dirt Rider issue it was in that i got every month and had it hanging in my room. At Englishtown Kawasaki race of champions one year team split fire was their and i won both motos of 12-13yr old 85cc class and got Ryno to autograph it. I still have that trophy up in my parents attic with about 300 other trophies and plaques.
People have been saying this for years! I can't believe how many people are riding Rynos D#!k
Well he's wrong! It brought more money because the put "Playoffs" in front of it and it brought tv money in. The AMA didn't doll out extra money! It was the advertising and TV money! With saying that I thought it was awesome but I do they need to shorten the regular season down a couple weeks!
And if the MXon whats yo be the big race then they need to pay all expenses!
Drop SMX and bring back the open class in the current races. Ryno is right. Make the US talent pool deeper. Des Nations is the championship the MX world wants
He can talk. I'm surprised it was only six hours
I agree rhino! Throw more money at mx and just bring back the monster cup in October
The only things wrong with SMX is 1) Some of the SX tracks are lame. Not much more than Arenacross. 2) Too many SX Races 15 is good. 3) Add a few more breaks between SX races. More resets and heal times. Take away 2 races to do this. 4) Have 12 MX races. 5) Get rid of shitty Pala/Fox and bring back Glen Helen. 6) Get rid of the triple challenge races. 7) Need to change the qualifying for the playoffs Make each rider participate in at least 60% of each series in order to compete in the playoffs. Right now, it's too easy to get into the playoffs. Guys like Webb, Roczen, did not race but a few outdoor but still had a chance for the million dollars. And, Forkner only rode 4 MX and still got into the playoffs. That's BS. Especially for the guys that did race most, if not all the races. Even though Jett was the best rider, IMO, Jett should have never been able to race the SMX because he only ran the 450 outdoors.
I like the playoffs but this setup is not in true playoff fashion. Playoffs are deserved, not handed to.
And, I do agree. Have bigger payouts for outdoor MX. With SX and MX now under the same umbrella, the earnings from SX should be used for those bigger payouts.
This will keep riders like Webb and Roczen in the field. As a purist of the sport, from the 60's, MX is the true heart of the sport. In fact, outdoor MX should be promoted even more than SX. TAKE NOTE OF THE 100,000 PLUS FANS AT ERNEE MofN!!! THAT WAS EPIC! LIKE THE USGP'S OF THE 70's and 80's!
I loved watching smx but I don't think it is the best thing for the sport.
Ryno is on the money !
Ryno needs to go to Burning Man and do some more Ayahuasca
I agree put more into the nationals, more people need to make money racing not just the top 5 or top 10 but all 40 racers are putting their bodies and lives on the line every moto. We also need the 450s to be put away, make the premier class be 350s and the racing will be much tighter and much better for the fans and safer for 99% of all the riders even the pros ✌️
Ryno always makes sense. More races didn’t bring more money. They did it to try and kill WSX. I agree with Ryno it killed the opportunity to send the US number 1 team to MXoN
the lowest gopher doing track prep makes better money then the racers. The sparkler people make more money and if all the sparkler display money went to racers and sparkles went away the world would be better for it.
I’m not familiar with Hughes’s injury history, but he looks like he has a “Bas Rutten arm” where his right arm looks atrophied. I wonder if it’s from a neck injury like Bas?
If he’s saying he has not one person in the world he would wish ill upon, he is painfully naive. I can understand the sentiment behind it for not putting energy into hate but he’s being disingenuous to himself, in my opinion.
