  • The Work of Staying Human - Eric Robinson | Moped Outlaws #269
    Oct 12 2026

    Eric Robinson spent a quarter century in the FBI after beginning his adult life in Christian ministry. As a special agent, firearms instructor, and SWAT operator, he encountered people and circumstances that challenged his assumptions about faith, morality, justice, and human nature. In this conversation with Greg and Marc, Eric reflects on empathy without excusing wrongdoing, the possibility of redemption, the lessons of parenting and marriage, and why curiosity can be more useful than certainty. His forthcoming book draws together the unlikely paths of preacher and breacher—and the human questions that connect them.

  • Home in the Heart of the Tenderloin — JJ Smith | Episode #265
    Sep 14 2026

    JJ Smith has spent much of his life in San Francisco’s Tenderloin, a neighborhood he calls home. In this conversation, he talks with Greg and Marc about his own history, his family’s struggles with addiction, and the path that led him from surviving on the streets to helping people around him find treatment, work, food, shelter, and a way forward.

    JJ’s approach is simple but demanding: show up, tell the truth, build trust, and don’t give up on someone just because they aren’t ready today. The conversation moves through addiction, recovery, homelessness, incarceration, economic opportunity, race, community, and the complicated question of what it means to help another person without judging them.

  • Too Dumb to Stop: Dick Wybrow on Writing, Faith & the Long Road
    Aug 24 2026

    Dick Wybrow returns to Moped Outlaws for a third conversation, this time with a new sci-fi adventure, The Facilite Con, and a life that has changed considerably since his last ride with Marc and Greg.

    Dick talks about what stand-up comedy taught him about storytelling, producing his own audiobook, trusting readers, and why creative longevity often belongs to the people who simply refuse to quit. The conversation also turns toward his journey from agnosticism into Catholic faith, the impact that change has had on his marriage, gratitude, community, and the work that keeps calling even when the road gets difficult.
