Hi there, there's not going to be too much in the way of agricultural language today,

seen as we're joined by a very polite young South African,

but the odd word might slip out.

So just be mindful of that one.

Enjoy.

Hello and welcome back to another Gassett Out podcast.

We are going stratospheric over recent weeks.

I mean that in terms of the guests, obviously not in terms of people listening.

But Guy Martin, Susie Perry, John McGuinness, and now a motor GP rider coming up. and we will hopefully have a couple more coming up soon. My name is Gavin Emmett, and on the other end of the line, hopefully is Neil Hodgson tucked away in his Heidi Hole hibernation somewhere. How are you, Neil? All good, Gav, this feels a little bit rushed. Normally we're a little bit more organised. This has been in the, what's it taken in the planning? Two minutes, three. Explain what happened. Basically, I said, shall we get Brad Binder?

Now, both me and Gav got on really well with Brad Binder, ex-Mortor 3 world champion, finished

second in the Motor 2 championship last year, is going to, is riding for the factory KTM team in Motor GP this year.

So GAV got in touch with KTM's press people.

As per usual, the press people didn't get back in touch with GAV or they did,

but nothing really happened.

And I said, oh, I know somebody who knows him really well.

Lance Isaacs, who's a really good friend of mine you might remember lance isaac's he was uh world super

bikes and world super sport back in the early early 2000 so um anyway so i messaged lance and said

is there any chance you can ask brad binder to come on our podcast bear in mind lance listens listens to this podcast. Yeah, I've seen him comment and say he thought it was all right, which was... Yeah, which is bizarre. By the way, if you ever go to Cape Town, Lance Isaacs is the ultimate tour guide. He knows all the cool places to go. But anyway, that's another story. Do you know what that says to me straight away?

That says to me...

He likes a drink.

No, no. What it says to me is Hodgie has absolutely taken him liberties. Yeah. When he's been on holidays of Africa, that's what he says to me. I bet you have, haven't you? Yeah, him and his beautiful girlfriend, Liesel, me and Vake, my girlfriend, we had so many good, because I was in South Africa in Cape Town in January. God, it seemed like a long time ago, but anyway, we had such good time. So anyway, I got on to Lance, Lance went, yeah, yeah, sure, I'll ask him. So Lance came straight back and said, yeah, no problem, he's well up for it. Here's his number, so I i text brad oh thanks for agreeing to do it uh can you do it tomorrow morning no no reply bear

in mind then i went to bed last night and i thought oh well he's he's obviously not that
