Dave Neal, host of the hugely popular Off Track Podcast, joins Bru Time for a candid conversation about his unexpected journey from lifelong motorcycle racing fan to respected voice within the British Superbikes paddock.

We dive into podcasting, racing culture, social media, burnout, integrity, the realities of working in motorsport, and the mindset that helped Dave carve his own path in an industry that rarely opens doors easily.

This is a conversation about passion, resilience, and building something meaningful without a master plan.

In this episode of Bru Time, Bruce sits down with journalist and YouTuber Tim Rodie for an honest, wide-ranging conversation about creativity, authenticity, and life online.

Tim shares his journey from traditional journalism into automotive media and YouTube, the realities of content creation, burnout, family balance, and why chasing algorithms and numbers rarely leads to fulfilment. Along the way, they talk motorcycles, cars, war history, and the importance of simply being yourself.

A thoughtful, relaxed chat about choosing your own path and staying grounded in a noisy online world.

In this episode of Bru Time, I sit down with Dan (English Biker Dan) for an open and honest conversation about grief, mental health, burnout, and rebuilding life after everything falls apart.

Dan talks candidly about losing close family members, the pressure of turning passion into a job, deleting a YouTube channel with nearly 100,000 subscribers, and what it means to start again without chasing validation or numbers.

We discuss grief, medication, identity, purpose, and the quiet courage it takes to choose a different path.

Bru Time is a long-form conversation podcast exploring what it really means to live your life — through honest conversations with people who chose more.

Damian “Demon Rides” Rowley joins me on Bru Time from South America, mid-journey on his ride around the world.

A former London dispatch rider, Virgin LimoBike chauffeur, racer from club level to World Endurance, and instructor at the Ron Haslam Race School, Damian’s life has been shaped by motorcycles — but this episode goes far deeper than bikes.

We talk honestly about chronic pain, burnout, mid-life realisation, resilience, and what finally pushed Damian to walk away from comfort and choose life over survival. From fixing a bike at 15,700 feet in Peru to confronting mental and physical limits, this is a raw, grounded conversation about responsibility, freedom, and living on your own terms.

No hype. No hero worship. Just real talk about what it actually takes to live your life.

• Choosing experience over comfort
• Why stories matter more than algorithms

In this episode of Bru Time, I sit down with Chris Eades, better known as Baron Von Grumble, for one of our most open and important conversations yet.

Alongside motorcycles and YouTube, Chris speaks candidly about mental health, burnout, and his recent experience with psilocybin therapy, discussing why he chose it, what the process involved, and how it’s impacted his outlook on life.

This is a thoughtful, honest conversation about vulnerability, self-reflection, and finding healthier ways to move forward.

No scripts. No bravado. Just real talk.
