  • Episode 71: Kieran Mogg: Jack of all trades - master of none!

    It’s been a while since the last episode, but as they say, absence makes heart grow fonder.


    Joining me for this next episode, which has some great stories being told, is fellow freelancer Kieran Mogg.


    He’s been involved in motorsport broadcasting in a variety of different roles including commentary, presenting, camera operator, runner, broadcast producer - you name it, he’s probably done it….


    It’s another great conversation, which also involves the famed DJ Pigeon shenanigans at Kartmasters 2024 - I’ll leave him to tell you the details.

  • Episode 70: Bram Ossewarde on Karting, Content Creation and much more!

    With over 15 years of experience, Bram Ossewarde has been dedicated to the art of karting and the pursuit of pure racing. He's also one of the more prevalent content creators within the space itself.


    Did I forget to mention he's a karting world champion? Yes, last year, he took glory in Valencia at the Tillotson T4 Nations Cup, bringing home the T4 Senior title. He has also now decided to go into the paddocks as a mechanic and driver coach, so it was fantastic to catch up with him and talk shop.


    Watch the vlog he did in Valencia, called "I Became A Go Karting World Champion:" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5HjvcLTkVcs


    We've also collaborated on a couple of videos, with my voice providing the commentary:
