Swapmoto Live Podcast

Presented by 6D Helmets Two-time 250 National MX Champion Jeremy Martin has had many ups and downs during his career, but there have also been some dark times. A broken back, concussions, shoulder injuries, and broken bones...injuries are a very real part of our sport and the risks go without saying, but the toll they take on your body and mind all add up. Martin's most recent setbacks have forced him to take a step back to evaluate what is most important to him, and we had a very candid conversation with the Minnesota native on this installment of the 6D Helmets Midweek Podcast

There have been plenty of great Supercross season openers, and last weekend's Anaheim One was pretty darned cool as far as we're concerned. While Chase Sexton and Jo Shimoda weren't total shockers as the winners of the 450 and 250 mains, per se, it was exciting to have the class favorites face some adversity in the first two main events of the season. Two-Time Supercross Champion Rick Johnson joins us again for today's show to offer some added insight.

Presented by Pro Taper The gates drop on the 2025 Monster Energy Supercross Series this Saturday, and we couldn't be more excited!

Who do you have for the class wins this Saturday?

Presented by Pro Taper How can it be Christmas Eve already? This year has flown by, especially the short "off-season" following the SMX Final in Las Vegas. Anaheim is on;ly a few short days away and we can't wait for the first gate drop of the new season. Join us for some holiday conversation in this week's Pro Taper Kickstart Podcast.

Presented by Pro Taper Five-time Arenacross Champion Kyle Peters joined us on the Pro Taper Kickstart Podcast this week to talk about the challenges of new contenders, rough riding, and more, in the tight confines of the AMA Kicker Arenacross Series. Lots more to chat about from the final Swapmoto Race Series event of the year, ARay's potential Stark Arenacross Adventure, and more!

Presented by 6D Helmets The WSX Supercross World Championship Series has come to a close. Eli Tomac added to his list of career accomplishments by earning his first World Championship title in the four-race series that routed racers through Canada, Australia, and the Arab United Emirates. We caught up with the Monster Energy/Star Racing/Yamaha racer for this installment of the 6D Helmets Midweek Podcast to talk about his "off-season" adventures, his preparedness as Anaheim One draws near, being on the largest team in the pits, and much more!

Presented by Pro Taper Last Wednesday, the WSX World Supercross Championship ended in Abu Dhabi with Ken Roczen scoring his first overall victory of the year while Eli Tomac wrapped up his first WSX World Championship. A few days later, the action heated up in Boise, Idaho, as the AMA Arencacross Championship rolled into town! In this week's Pro Taper Kickstart Podcast, WSX reported Kristen Beat joins us to offer some feedback and insight in the first half of the show, and MCR Honda's Ryan Breece - who was also in Abu Dhabi - popped in to talk about the rough world of AMA Arenacross! Enjoy!

Presented by Pro Taper Last weekend was an eventful one on both sides of the globe! The AUS-X Open saw Joey Savatgy and Shane McElrath crowned the Australian SX and SX2 Champions in the relaunch of Australia's biggest stand-alone Supercross race. McElrath stayed up late to call in from his hotel room in Abu Dhabi to join us for part one of this week's show, and our camping neighbor Ryan Villopoto joined us for part two to talk about the party that was the Day in the Dirt 27 Grand Prix!

Presented by 6D Helmets It's been six years since the Swapmoto Live team launched, and Editor Michael Antonovich has played a vital role in every aspect of our brand's business. Known best as "Anton," he is our man on the road and has attended almost every motocross, Supercross, and Motocross of Nations, with his bag of cameras on hand. With the conclusion of the 2024 racing season comes a big change for our partner and friend, as he is leaving the SML family to venture out as an independent journalist. With a long history that dates back to the days before he could legally consume a beer, swap and Anton sat down to talk about the future and reminisce on the past.

Presented by Pro Taper Rounds two and three of the WSX Supercross World Championship Series went down last weekend in Perth, Australia, and Monster Energy/Star Racing/Yamaha's Eli Tomac was again the man with a plan, and emerged from both rounds with the overall wins. Tomac is getting warmed up for the Monster Energy Supercross Championship kickoff in January, and it certainly looks like he will be firing on all cylinders when the gates drop at Anaheim One. Our friend Kristen Beat was on hand leading the broadcast team in Perth, and she joined us to give us her first-hand observations!
