This week, Chris Pritchard and Lee Johnston speak to TT presenter and legendary rider Cameron Donald.
Cam talks to us about striking the balance between family time and his passion for racing, his early years and why he had to wait before he could get started racing.
They discuss the emotion, excitement and surreal feeling of being on the startline, both as a TT rider and a presenter, and what he said to Michael Rutter the first time he met him.

Yet another brilliant interview and Lee was MADE for social media! That lad can commentate, interview and be interviewed and he manages to keep you engaged from start to finish AND he makes it look effortless. He reminds me a lot of Whitham, he can walk the walk AND talk the talk! Go Lee! Once he retires (which I hope he doesn’t for a LONG time I can definitely see a bright future for him presenting and doing commentary 👍🏻

Seconded. In a decade or more, imagine Lee is on point in the commentators box? Excellent. Huge value added.

Probably my favourite one yet. Loved all the chat about the Irish national scean. I remember watching cam at skerries years ago . It was a great time for Irish racing back then. Unfortunately it's on its knees now and I don't think it ever recover unfortunately.

Not enough money in it even to cover its minimally required costs. A conspiracy out of event insurance is a full on assault on something that’s quintessentially male. The “eiites” do not like real men, fearless, skilful men.

Great podcast, first Ive watched on YT instead of the app.. Lee is the General. I'm ill in bed with one of my boys who is also ill. He loves Lee Johnson. I have a great video of Lee coming around the hairpin at Oliver's Mount in first at the end of the first lap and my son literally ran whooping across from the start finish straight to the hill. Went to the TT first time last year. Looking forward to watching Lee this year

Love the story about Cam asking the old bloke on the bus to the circuit at Macau, “Who are you spannering for?”, getting back “Spannering? Cheeky bastard” from Michael Rutter. And seeing Bruce Anstey fly by on a 600 & he was like, “I’ve got to do this”. It’s just shit that there’s so little money in road racing that riders more or less have to rock up with a substantial contribution to running costs or you’re very unlikely to even get started. I can understand why that is. Few commercial companies want to advertise their wares with a backdrop of something as edgy as this. In the past, that was fine. Now, it’s too loaded with “toxic masculinity” (obviously it’s not, but that’s what they say). “Woke” makes sponsoring this kind of event nearly impossible. Companies “police” each other. While companies that make products only for bikers ought to be excited by it, they’re not all massive global corporations with billion pound turnover. A lot of products are niche. They don’t have a ton of spare money being spun off routine commercial activities. TT is still a huge draw for any company making stuff for bikes & associated with that. But how can TT survive if there’s less & less underpinning activity within which young men can learn their craft? I genuinely fear even for TT. I doubt it’s got a decade left in it if the lower races keep getting stuffed.
