Side Friction - Episode 97 - "The Ride is Out There"

September 20th, 2025

Bob and Ryan the Ride Mechanic have Airtime Myke on the show this week to talk about... well.... A LOT.  This is the longest episode to date but genuinely probably one of the most interesting.  As for rabbit trails, well, that's basically the whole last hour but the whole show is lots of fun.
