Andre and Todd became fast friends riding their motorbikes around the Northwest in 2009. In this interview they finally get to catch up after an exciting trip up the coast on their choppers – as usual Andre comes through with his knowledge of the niche.
Chris and Todd had been speaking over the phone for a year until Todd finally flew up to Oregon and recorded this interview in the Wesco factory. It is the first Blue Todd Cast ever recorded outside of the studio. Chris is the Sales Manager for Wesco Boots, and a hell of a craftsman in the world of footwear. Their conversation is a peek behind the curtain into one of the oldest footwear companies in the US. A note from Todd – This video isn’t actually an official episode of the BTC but rather a special thank you to all the customers who bought a pair the BLUBAUGH Engineer boots.
I want you all to see the beauty of buying domestically. Thank you so much for your support and patience.

Todd and Snake discuss a decade of motorcycle mischief - their years living together and riding around LA, wild warehouse parties, road "trippin" through this world, and all the good friends they've lost and found along the way.
I'm excited to introduce Dean Bradshaw - the first photographer I've had on the podcast. I've always been impressed with Dean's curious mind and it makes a lot of sense once you hear his background. I was surprised how little we actually talked about photography... instead most of our discussion came back to our shared interest in people. It makes sense when you look at Deans work – he clearly has a way of capturing them.

Dr. Randy B. Hayward is one of the most graceful speakers I’ve ever sat down with. He holds multiple degrees, including a doctorate in education which he has reached many lives through. He has a passion for motorcycles; but more importantly for people. I was lucky to have him come visit me in the desert for a quick conversation. I can’t begin to explain a man with this many layers- you’ll just have to enjoy the episode.
