Yeah! Welcome to the Exhaust Podcast with Jason Weigandt. Or is this a new version of the Weege Show? Is there drama between the racing series in Australia? How will Haiden Deegan fare against Eli Tomac, Cooper Webb, Ken Roczen, and more? Weege dives in. Presented by Yoshimura and store.Insta360.com  
Jason Weigandt chats with Jorge about his return to KTM. "The bike has made a step (since 2024). The first time I jumped back on the bike, I said, 'This is not the same bike I last rode in the U.S.'" Much has been said about Jorge Prado's 2025 season in the U.S. with Monster Energy Kawasaki, but suffice it to say it didn't go well. It was so tough that Jorge worked to get out of what was supposed to be a three-year deal and found a landing spot back with his old brand, Red Bull KTM. Jorge is no longer talking about his Kawasaki days, but he is excited to be back on familiar equipment. He actually feels like the bike is even better than it was when he last raced it early in Monster Energy Supercross in 2024. Jason Weigandt chats with Jorge in this podcast about what's to come in 2026.  The Racer X Exhaust podcast is presented by Yoshimura and Insta360.
Wait... Is Eli Tomac possibly going back to Monster Energy Kawasaki? He is not! Jason Weigandt runs through the latest off-season news on Tomac, Chase Sexton, Jorge Prado and more, plus a look back at Chad Reed's Hall of Fame Legacy as he gets inducted this week! Presented by Yoshimura, Insta360 and (of course) Racer X.

He threw up in his helmet to win the toughest GNCC. Now he's racing Southwick on Saturday and a National Enduro on Sunday. Jason Weigandt chats with a versatile warrior. Josh Toth gave it everything he had...and more...to win the grueling Yamaha Snowshoe GNCC over the weekend in West Virginia. In this podcast with Jason Weigandt, the Rocky Mountain/Red Bear Kawasaki rider describes that victory, where he bested his teammate (and team owner) Stu Baylor by about three seconds after three hours of racing. He was throwing up in his helmet on the last lap while still pushing for the win! As soon as that was over, he drove from Snowshoe back to Connecticut to prepare for this weekend's Southwick National, where he hopes to score a point at a motocross track that sits 30 minutes from where he grew up. Then he's racing an AMA National Enduro in Ohio on Sunday! Enjoy this tale of a rider once labeled as the next big thing in GNCC, who later had to rebuild himself as Mr. Versatility to find his true calling.

Mitch Kendra called up Kayden Minear after his 1-1 day at the SMX Next – Motocross Combine at the Hangtown Motocross Classic to talk about the race and much more. Originally from Perth, Western Australia, Minear turned pro in Australia at the age of 15 but then got an opportunity to race one event in the U.S. last summer. A moto win at the 2024 Ironman Raceway Scouting Moto Combine turned heads and made his phone ring, changing the trajectory of his life. Now, as a recently turned 18-year-old, he is living full-time in the United States and racing for Monster Energy Yamaha Star Racing. The interview covers a bunch of different topics, including having Ryan Dungey as his idol growing up, racing Cole Davies—who is now his teammate on Star Racing—nearly ten years ago, how he ended up in the USA full-time, his early pro years in Australia, the saying he lives by, seeing the Lawrence brothers at races years ago, and more. To learn "bits and bobs" about Minear. "I grew up on the other side of Australia to every pro rider, there's not many pro riders that have come from where I where I grew up," he said. Note: We did this interview Tuesday afternoon and on Thursday, the team announced Minear would be making his U.S. pro debut at the Thunder Valley National on Saturday, June 7, where he will be #106.   Who is Kayden Minear?
