Long time listener for both this and RAW. Highly recommend it for those who love riding motorcycle and exploring the world!!

Interesting topics and sound quality is really good. Very engaging.

Man, do I love listening to this. I think I’ve listened to 60-80 episodes. Mr. Martin is always engaging and asks relevant questions of his guests. Big fan of Deep Trouble and of any Smout appearance. Thanks for the entertainment and education!

Found this a couple of years ago and now never miss an episode. I have no idea how anybody finds the time to put into this quality of a podcast EVERY week. Great balance of real world experiences and instructional tips. Find it massively improves my riding and adventuring just hearing all this content.

I love all these deep trouble stories. Keep them coming.

If you’re like me, you’ll smile often and laugh out loud while listening to their tales – but the real value comes from what I learned from them!

Where to start? Jim and Elizabeth do a fantastic job of bringing fresh and relevant content to each episode. He has a great way of engaging his audience by interacting with his guest(s) in a way that makes it seem like you’re a part of the conversation. And the production is excellent as well. No dead air, just a flowing dialogue that inspires the listener to go out and enjoy the unique satisfaction that motorcycle travel brings. And the behind the scenes work does not go unnoticed. Elizabeth does a wonderful job with everything that could be a distraction and even her selection of “ bumper music” ads to the value of their production. Well done, team, and the same 5 star review to RAW as well!

This show has given me so many ideas to improve my skills as a long distance adventure rider. Great variety of topics and people. Love it!

Jim is a great host. Easy to listen to and really knows how to lead a guest through their story! One of my favorite podcasts.

I really enjoy listening, and learning ..

I love the mix of guests. From industry insiders to regular folk just traveling.

Found this show just 1 week ago. It’s great! I’m listening it everyday since then by 4-5 series. Found a lot of useful information. It would be very interesting to hear 4-3 series dedicated specifically to bike maintenance - on road, off road, in the garage… Thanks!

Hugely entertaining podcast with a continuous flow of usable information. I especially enjoy the “Deep Trouble” episodes that have influenced my thoughts on what gear to carry and how to approach a trip. Keep up the good work!

A year ago I got into motorcycling and am starting ADV riding now. Perusing through episodes on safety, rider skills, and travel in the USA and abroad from various perspectives has been hugely educational and great entertainment. This is my go to podcast for motorcycle info. The host is great, the production quality is excellent, and the guests are really well-chosen. Highly recommended!

I don’t discover this podcast until 2024. I have a job that enables me to listen to books or podcasts all day long so this one will keep me entertained for a long time it looks like. I ride a 2022 Suzuki DRZ400 and a 2024 Honda Trail 125.

Well-produced, interesting and informative. Jim and his guests are able to make a very visual medium (moto riding) accessible for anyone by podcast. I always recommend the podcast to riding buddies

I’ve traveled by motorcycle to many parts of the world. I often hear new things here— and am always entertained by Jim’s guests. Jim’s podcast is not full if a lot of drivel and chatter. Just good interviews and good tips.

Great podcast. Even if your tires never touch dirt, the stories and skills will still be useful and interesting.

If your interest is adventure riding, or you want to know what it is all about before trying, this podcast is the best there is. Through all the topics and techniques covered and interesting guests interviewed Jim seems to ask questions that you would ask if you were there, puts himself in your shoes. Haven’t missed an episode of this and the ADV Raw podcast since I first heard it,

It feels like family, I know that’s weird but it’s true.

Love to listen every week to this and the RAW show they do. I think Jim is a closet psychologist and really asks some probing questions of his guests. He really gets into the motivations, fears, joys etc of the guests not just the facts and experiences. Jim’s very knowledgable on almost all things motorcycle and travel. I love to jump on my bike and put on the latest episode.

This is a great show and has a lot of really good information for adventure riders and those wanting to learn different techniques.

I’ve been listening to the show since the beginning and always look forward to new episodes every week. Jim is amazing at interviewing guests and his wife Elizabeth does amazing job of producing/editing. It breaks my heart to see someone here gave a 2 star rating!

Hello Jim I found your podcast a few months ago. And I love it I listen to every episode now. And I wanted to say thank you for the rider skills segment especially. I am pretty new to the adv riding and I use the tips from your podcast every time I go out riding. So thank you again Jim and I look forward to more shows.

Jim I ordered a new set of ims pegs for a 2022 ktm 1290 super adv the representatives at ims ask if i would take some pictures of my existing factory pegs for comparison to help with R and D and they would discount the new ones …nice!! So after sending several pictures the ADV1’s were selected during the back and forth emails I was asked how I heard about them well of course I said ARR the best podcast on adventure riding there is!!! And to my surprise when i got my invoice on the pegs there was another 5% off for being a ARR listener….Sweet!! Thank you love the show. Tim Covington North Carolina

Jim & Elizabeth have put together simply the best Adventure Rider show imaginable. I appreciate the variety of topics, episodes, and guests. The show is deeply informative with its Rider Skills episodes as well a entertaining and riveting with the stories and interviews of travels from all over the globe. The technical quality is fantastic and consistent. It’s by far one of the best produced and widely informative I have found yet. Keep up the terrific work!

Hi Jim, Not sure what your background is but man you sure are a wonderful podcast host. I look forward to each new episode. Relevant, interesting, professional while maintaining warmth and connection with your guests. Thanks for a great show !!!

One of my favorite podcasts. Learn so much each time presented in a positive unbiased and informative way. Keep up the good work.

Excellent podcast with a great host Jim Martin who has clever questions and funny comebacks. The show has a variety of different guests all with fascinating stories and great advice and knowledge.

Maybe YOU are eventually going electric but I’ll be the last American to do so. Will make my own engine if I have to and distill my own fuel. Electric motorcycles just aren’t, by definition, motorcycles. Charlie and Ewan showed us that.

If you love motorcycles or simply love to explore, this podcast is for you. The guestsJim has on are top notch pools of information and entertainment. I look forward to the notice that it is available every week!

I absolutely love listening to Jim's podcast when I'm driving in the car or working on my bikes. He provides excellent information on products and riding techniques mixed with some awesome real life stories. Thanks to Jim and the crew that puts this on - I'm always looking forward to the next episode.

Great resource for new ADV riders to build skills and for experienced riders to be inspired to The Next Big Adventure.

Jim & his guests offer stellar listening for riders in search of thoughtful tales, techniques and inspiration. I never fail to listen until the last fading shift as the “every rider” heard riding into the distance purrs away on his (unnamed) BMW. Marvelous.

Fabulous

I find the Adventure Rider Radio and Adventure Rider Radio RAW podcasts the most entertaining, useful, professional, and the shows that I most look forward to listening to each week/month. Jim also has a great manner about the way that he interviews his guests. Outstanding job, thank you for your selfless service to the motorcycle and travel communities and please keep them coming!

Great show with an excellent combination of episodes that cover topics covering stories from the road, industry experts, rider skills and more. The show is fresh and interesting every week and really makes you just want to get out on the road (or trail) and explore

Jim is hands down one of the best interviewers out there. Just as a guest think they have taken the evasive way out of a question Jim will press for the details. This makes for truly great episodes!

I listen to this podcast religiously. If you're into ADVing, look no further. Anybody who's anybody in the industry respects and/or has been on Jim's show.

The only thing I don’t like about this show is that it makes it even tougher to go to work on Monday instead of hitting the road. Jim is a patient interviewer who ask terrific questions...really fun to listen to him open up stories his guests sometimes didn’t even know were there.

Jim is a good interviewer. His guests are The Who’s who of the motorcycle world. If you love travel, adventure and motorcycles this podcast is for you.

Excellent interview. I always look forward to each podcast and this interview about the Ural Moto ventures was just as riveting as many of your others.We’re hoping to find an English version of the movie to get the visual of it all.

These Martin’s put together an intriguing show with guest content that draws the listeners into the adventure stories and audible explanation of technical riding skills to promote safe practice and improve rider performance. Sponsors can’t find a better motorcycle podcast to showcase their wares. Excellent job Jim and Elizabeth, very well done.

I discovered ARR just a couple months ago, and now I listen to it everyday - while walking the dog, going for a run, driving etc. The dscussion topics are highly relevant to my riding, the guest speakers are very knowledgeable, and Jim Martin is the perfect host/moderator. All adventure riders (young/old, newbies/exerienced, male/female, in the U.S. or anywhere in the world) will enjoy ARR podcasts. And let's all support this amazing source of information/pleasurable listening by contributing $$ directly, or indirectly by supporting the sponsors. I did it, and will do more.

If I only had to listen to one motorcycle podcast this would be it! Always informed topics that make you want to ride.

This podcast is quality. It could be a radio production, but thankfully it isn’t as there would be 5 minutes of commercials for each 3 minutes of content. And, while I get the add free version, occasionally I listen for the adds. The products that endorse the show are solid and work well. The content is really the heart of it. Rider tips that even experienced riders can use as a reminder. Discussions with people who’ve “been there, done that” which can help avoid hardship. I would like to see some rider tips on trip planning and packing; maybe some YouTube content....

I’ve been a listener for years basically from the beginning. Undoubtably the best producer, interviewer and best guests in the motorcycle world. I listen to many motorcycle and adventure style podcasts and what I appreciate the most is how clean this show is. I can listen to this show with my kids and wife. Jim always has the best most relevant motorcycle content and steers towards political neutrality, and clean programming. Other shows are so full of garbage it’s almost difficult to wade through it all to find the content. ARR is truly a high quality program In every way. I Look forward to every Thursday. Thank you guys so much for giving me an enjoyable hour every week! It has become a staple in my life!

Jim has some of the best guests, best topics, and best responses of any ADV related podcast I listen to. I’m a local rider, getting away maybe a week at a time to go do BDR routes nearby and while much of the content seemingly relates to RTW styled riders, so much also translates to the riding I do. Thank you Jim!

I’ve been listening for about a year now and figure I better rate this podcast. Excellent interviews and information. The host has great delivery and a good quality setup. There are a lot of episodes too, I recommend going back and listening to them all.
