Al Fagan Reveals How 44teeth Almost Ended Overnight! | On The Podium: Podcast No.1

Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Our first 'On The Podium', Live Podcast is with Al Fagan, the co-founder of motorcycle lifestyle brand 44teeth. He chats to us about his journey from managing a pub in Somerset, to landing a job on Fast Bikes magazine, to becoming one of the best-known motorcycle KZreadrs out there.
The podcast was filmed in front of a live audience at the awesome Podium Place, Newbury.
Its a long one, at almost 2.5 hours, but there are loads of great stories; some surprising revelations and plenty of laugh-out-loud moments along the way.
Huge thanks to John, Tracey and the whole Podium Place team for supporting us and making us feel so welcome.
Thanks also to everyone who bought tickets and came along - from all over the UK - to listen to us chat b****** for two and a half hours!
And finally, a massive thank you to 44teeth and the main man, Al Fagan, for giving up his time to share his life story with us.
Now, who wants a Part 2?

NOTE: This was our first go at a live podcast and, hands up, we had some issues with camera autofocus. Moving forward, we'll use two cameras (manually focused on the subjects!), plus an additional mic to pick up the audience questions.

    I attended that night and thoroughly enjoyed the venue at Podium that John kindly made available to you. You and Al made for a very entertaining evening. To all the comments about sound, if you were at the spectacular venue you would understand (meslin area with bar pool table, three high end no expense spared driving simulators and seating for dozens of people, all above a spotless and I mean hospital clean garage makeing TWR XJS conversions....thus the ehco. Brilliant evening!!!!!👍👍👍👍👍

    First class guys. Love 44T and only found your channel because I found one of your bike video’s, now I just watch because you’re a sound guy who works on cool cars with the occasional bike video. One ask, can you cut the video while you flash up the motul sponsor, or turn the noise down on it, can barely hear the conversation when it flashes up. Cheers, look forward to more 👍🏻
