Throttled Roots Podcast

We took the podcast OUTSIDE for this one 🌊🏍️It was too nice to sit in a studio, so we packed up the gear, rode down, and recorded this episode right at Ventura Harbor with Samuel — aka “Jesus and Harleys.” Good weather, Harleys parked nearby, and a real conversation about something people don’t always put together: God and motorcycle culture.A lot of folks think faith and the biker lifestyle are on opposite sides of the road… but for me as a believer, it’s actually the opposite. In this episode we dip our toe into how faith, freedom, brotherhood, and Harley culture can all live in the same lane.Super good talk, super good day, and I’m grateful Samuel came out to ride and hang with me.Looking for your next bike?Check out Ventura Harley-Davidson for new and pre-owned Harleys.If you’re ever involved in a motorcycle accident (we hope you never are),📞 Call Law Tigers — riders who represent riders.🔥 In This Episode:Recording a podcast at the beachFaith and Harley-Davidson cultureBrotherhood, freedom, and beliefBreaking the stereotype of bikers and religionRiding, life, and real conversationsIf you’re into Harley-Davidson, motorcycle lifestyle, biker culture, faith-based conversations, and real talk, this one’s for you.
