We actually did it. Episode 10 of Joy Ride. This officially puts us in the top 1% of podcasts ever... probably.

Since we hit our one clear goal of making it to double digits, we are talking all about goal setting. How do you go from lofty, impossible dreams (like buying your mum the Ruby Slippers from The Wizard of Oz or shooting a narrative feature) to an actual, realistic to-do list? We chat about failing forward, why we are shooting "extended sketches" instead of short films, and what it really took to get our feature The Price made.

Plus, standard Joy Ride chaos: losing each other around Old Street, dodging London traffic, Dave Mustaine's negative goals, and nearly crushing balls on the bike frame. The great white shark of podcasts never stops moving.

Don't have time to watch two knobheads on bikes? You can now listen to the audio-only version on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Two blokes on bikes. One big topic.

This week on Joyride, Ben and Michael tackle storytelling — why it's the most fundamental human skill, how pro wrestling taught Michael everything he knows about long-term narrative, and why everyone who's ever told a colleague what they did at the weekend is already a storyteller.

Plus: jumping red lights, a woman who looked at Ben like he was something on her shoe, an eight-minute gap where Michael fell behind, and the definitive proof that stories are like a**holes.

We are the world's only mobile podcast. We are the great white sharks of podcasting. We are, apparently, professor sharks.

Making a movie is easy. Making a movie with your mates without ending the friendship is the real challenge.

In this episode, we’re hitting the road to dissect the chaos of our latest feature film. We’re deep-diving into the "build the plane while flying it" philosophy, looking at how we transitioned from short-form content to a full-scale production. No gatekeeping here, just a transparent look at the wins, the catastrophic financial decisions, and why we’d probably do it all over again.

Inside the Episode:

The Pivot: Moving from commercial work to narrative features.

Budgeting for Disaster: What it actually costs to fund a dream.

Team Dynamics: Keeping the creative chemistry alive under pressure.

Post-Production Blues: Is the film actually any good?
