I worked at a hotel in Vegas during Monster Cup. I have dealt with celebrities and even Presidents. I have never been so scared and starstruck when I dealt with MC. I have idolized him my whole life. I was leaving work a few days later walking through the casino, he literally stopped me and remembered my name. Most memorable time I have ever had with a true hero!

Mcgrath is a total stud and just the best human. I remember a local race in Utah in 2008 where he raced all day and won everything and then stayed after the race for like 4 hours to make sure everyone had a chance to meet him, get an autograph, or even snap a picture. Best rider of all time in my opinion. Took moto to a whole new level and into the mainstream. He set up paths for countless riders after him. Jeremy, thanks for all you did for my favorite sport. Fan for life!

Jeremy has always been a great ambassador for our sport, I’m 64 and now my Grandsons race and ride, he made it desirable for average people by not being a boneheaded athlete throwing away his prestige on stupid nonsense! ❤

Jeremy is a good dude, great for the sport. The opening of Steel Roots, Symphony of Destruction, Jeremy riding wheelies on the railroad tracks. We wore that VHS tape out. Good times.

The King has spoken. Thank you for everything you’ve done for the sport of motocross/supercross MC. Legend.

Congrats on 3yrs Donn and what a fun ride it’s been watching you succeed and grow into one of the best motocross channels, if not the best on KZfaq. Your calm classy approach is the main reason I say that and why I enjoy it so much. You’ve always done things your way and stay out of the drama and keep focused on bringing all of us all this top notch content. You’re a real gem Donn. Thank you.

Jeremy single handledly brought the sport to another level.. i think most everyone would acknowledge. He brought in big name sponsors that never gave Pro Motocross a 2nd thought. He had a bunch of toys made of him. Just a class act & great ambassador for our sport. -Ohio

When the King speaks the people listen. Long live the King 🤘🤘

Jeremy Mc the proper G.O.A.T.

It's been said a million times, I'm sure, but Jeremy is such a respectable guy. As big of a star that he is in our sport, he doesn't speak to anyone differently, he just treats everyone so well. I love that he is still the same Jeremy from the 90s. I met him in 1996 at the Denver SX, got his autograph and just remember being starstruck, but also pleasantly surprised; he was just so incredibly kind. I was about 14 yrs old. It was such a memorable moment to meet such a huge figure in the sport and discovering how absolutely nice he was 🙏🏻

Do it scared until you can do it skilled 🔥🔥

Some say you shouldn’t meet your hero’s as you will be disappointed, Jeremy is the exception to that rule! As busy a guy as he is he is genuine and kind!! Thanks Jeremy for being you!

I love how honest this interview is too. So down to earth, especially for being one of the most influential MX riders ever.

Canyon Lake in the 90s was the best place to live, I really wasn't anyone special but got to go to a few house parties at MCs house the guy is just a fun person to be around. Lots of good memories at that ol lake house .. Truly will remember those times forever.. Class Act. for sure..

Always enjoy listening to McGrath interviews

McGrath is one of the greatest MX racers of all time

Dowdy,Henry,K Dub, and Jeremy,shit that's moto in America, awesome memories,East Coast to the West 🇺🇸🏁😎

It’s funny how life works, Jeremy’s time with Suzuki wasn’t as successful as he deserved, but for me the 1997 season was a turning point in the sport, until then nobody ever said no to Honda, what for me was mind blowing, I am originally from Brazil and Honda there was so dominant that almost killed the interest in the sport, I always thought that Jeremy would retire as a red rider so I was losing the interest in the sport here, then out of the blue he turned the table and did the Suzuki deal. That reminded me when Senna in 1993 raced with an inferior car and still won several races finishing in second the championship, and he said something that I live by until this day “Every year we have a winner but not every year we have a Champion”. Jeremy is a true champion in life, always down to earth and really cool!

McGrath is the MAN!! I raced motocross from 12 to 18 til I went pro surfing. But McGrath is why I raced. I pulled for him every weekend. Got other favs. But Jeremy is the GOAT!!!

This was just about all the questions I had wanted to hear answers to in one interview. Thank you both for sitting down and taking the time to do this one it was great.

Great time/interview. Thanks fellas and congrats Don. But Dude, water your poor tree! 😂 🤘

1991 I got a CR 125 and that bike was bad ass. Hondas back in the day. We’re definitely rippers.

McGrath is the Iron Mike Tyson of motocross during his reign it was just different!!!

Great guy

Mcgrath is the most effortlessly cool guy to ever throw a leg over a bike so naturally charismatic and smooth

I still to this day have never seen anyone corner as fast as Jeremy on that Suzuki during sx, he should of won that series but he had some bad luck, legend 👌

Love these interviews with Jeremy. He is just an amazing person and the stories behind the scenes are great. He is still my all time favorite rider!

I love King, always like listening to what he has to say. He is from my era👍

The OG glad to see JM still around the sport along with RC, RV, and JS

MC just seems like a genuinely good dude and someone who'd be cool to have a beer with.

Whenever i hear kryptonite by 3 doors i think steel roots then if i hear megadeath all i can see in my head is the start of steel roots 1!!!

Hi Swap Your music is perfect! Great call! It makes it Great interview, Mr McGrath is a Icon of good people. Real Champion in every way. Cheers

really nice to hear from the king, this format is great!!

I got an ogio laptop bag its probably 12-15 years old , still looks new never ripped, zippers still work great. Its carries some weight too.

Both of you are a class act👍🏼👍🏼

I do that as well. Drive around, looking at hills or mounds of dirt. I am actually start thinking about Riding when I see that stuff.

I'm 36. This man was my childhood idol. I owe a lot to him and never even had the chance to meet him. I still like to pretend I'm him on the weekends at the track.

First and foremost would like say thank you Jeremy! Both of my sons idolized you and you responded graciously be it mini sx or year’s later at Elsinore in the vintage class . You did get lucky when I told my youngest to not take you out or i wouldn’t talk to him anymore ❤

I bought a tribute BMX bike -- blue with gold anodized rims and with Yamaha and all of his sponsors' stickers during his Yamaha era. You were not different, Jeremy...you were special!

So true about that music from steel roots! The megadeath song is the beginning of SR1 and my kid was 2 yrs old and when he hears it to this day now at 25 hes like hey i know this from M.Cs video

I got a sweet 1998 YZ250. Kept it in the corner of my garage till my son was big and skilled enough to handle it. Its a great bike. Wish i could find a factory sub frame for it tho. OEM bends real easy

Jeremy is the best EVER!!!!!

So cool to hear Jeremy talk about looking for jumps while he's driving around. I started doing that as a kid and I still do it today. Obviously, he's looking at bigger stuff to jump than I am but it's great to know that he's still a kid at heart.

Excellent interview!

Good memories Senor! 🏆

nice to see real plants on the set

The KING 👑

Solid dude!!!!! Love showtime!

This guy is just as cool as he always has been. I love it. Same thing is true about skateboarding, once a skateboarder always a skateboarder and dirt biker. I’m always looking for skate spots or a nice moto hit and I’m 40. I can’t shut it off nor want to.

Good interview. Now I know why I had many hole-shots on my 99 RM250. No wheel spin. 🤠

Class act “Showtime”👊

So kick ass you had the king on the show i was almost about to ask again about him like where the hell is M.C. these days i swear you read all of our minds!

Please cut that dead tree behind you 😢 overall that was a very wonderful show 🤩🔥🔥🔥👍🏽❤️🇺🇸🏁

Stoked!!! Cool channel 🤟🏻🤟🏻

He's truly a stand up guy !! I was lucky enough to meet him at wild horse race way and he was a great guy!!!

thanks for helping swapmoto Jeremy !!!

I was In the Moto Indusry for many years and Met mac a bunch and he was always friendly. Reed on the other hand.....

Jeremys facial expressions are too funny. Just stares at the camera like "What?"

Jeremy is a awesome dude… must respect

"everything is still dirtbike mind" yes.

thanks for being you Donn, grew up reading your articles and glad you made the leap and stuck with it

I really dig the MC interviews, always learning from them

The king is why I started watching and riding DirtBikes 🤘

I think just listening to him inspires me to start my own business I mean his mindset is so clear

Good interview

Come on man!!!! This is the 10th McGrath interview. LOTW daily!!!!!! Let's F'ing GOOOOO!!! You don't realize LOTW is the best stuff you have and could probably triple the views! Do I need to do your marketing?! 😂😂

I loved the bud light bike. Wow how times have changed! Nobody want to ride it now.

We need a part two !!! Let’s talk about party MC !!!

We all wanted to be Jeremy.

When I was 18 racing 125 expert I remember seeing him at a big race at Sandhill Ranch hanging with the other 80 cc kids and I believe his dad had a box van with his name painted on the side which at the time was strictly for the best riders. He was probably a novice or intermediate and I thought to myself who is this kid? I'll never forget that and have been a fan ever since he turned pro.

McGrath armchair riding. thats awesome.

i was at cahila creek beind jeremy looking for a good place to pass...he never made a mistake......

I just realized that McGrath's 250 career began 30 years ago. Seems like only yesterday.

Talking about Dave & Chaparral Calling Deegan & others squid's that had to go 😂 I guess it worked out for Deegan who were the others on that small team #Showtime

MC is the Nicest person I’ve haven’t met ....... yet 😉

I always wondered what was the deal with Steve Lamson taking MC out like that. I never heard anything or his excuse🙄 for accidentally taking him out twice in one race.

Met him briefly in ‘97 in Maryland during the outdoor nationals. Anybody catch Don’s comment about a knee replacement? I got a titanium one also on my right knee, wonder if MC got some fancy ‘works’ hardware with his. I would be interested to know what specialized knee therapy he does to keep up with it.

Hey Jeremy, I built a small track in the top yard for my grandsons but when my granddaughters roll around they act like they own it . What should I do ? Their kinda rude

Always had it always will. That’s actually a DLR phrase from 1980 but who remembers that. It’s mine now. I,m 5 yrs older than Jeremy. I saw him race in 91 to 98 a few times. Including 97 indy things went sideways in that one. Cold outside Mc still signed autographs at the back of the rig. I sent my girlfriend up to get 1 for my pals kid. Minneapolis on chore was cool with numerous nac nacs,etc. for his 1st win. MC has the same dob as Alex Puzar 11-19. Mine 11-18 . My 1st Mx bike 11-18-89 a 87 cr125. MC 1st pro bike 89 cr125. MC 1st win 1990. My 1st race ever & won a 125a moto full gate.

Does it get any cooler than MC?

Everytime I hear the ogio ad, it sounds like Dylan is say I'm Jennifer Brundage and I choose ogio lmao. Why?

"I'm gonna have to go with a NO on that"

Jeremy is the beez kneez

Would you like to be sponsored by them now? No.... HAHAHAHAHA

So I used to love transworld motocross. Then life happened and I left the sport for a while. Now I’m getting back into it. What happened to transworld?

Bring back (The king and I) from Jeremy's house!

Luv me sum MC dawg

Only one MC.

34:54 and now no one would want it after they hired mulveiny…. 😂

And no Snickers deal yet

lol squids

How can you not like mc.

Every time I met MC, whether at the track or at Chaparral, he was always very cool and friendly. I even emulated him in the late 90's, wearing his Fox and No Fear Chaparral gear, which I still have, putting the same decals on my YZ250's (to be fair though, I was on Yamahas before he switched over from Suzuki, lol) and he's almost a year younger than me! And I was riding and racing in SoCal at the time! I was also bleaching my hair white blond! 🤦🏻‍♂️ What a pathetic fanboy I was. Other riders at Glen Helen or Elsinore were probably laughing at me 😅 Oh well 🤷🏻‍♂️ I wrote the review for "Steel Roots 2" in Racer X and have one of his jerseys signed and framed. One thing he did in '94 was get a horrible start in Houston and had to come thru the pack to zap Emig for the lead

Steel Boots!

I love Jeremy!!! But am I crazy? He looks stiff and not mobile. He looks like hes in a back brace or something? Rod covered up by the jacket.

I think dangerboy more so but jett aswell are the individuals in supercross now taking it to a new level that without Jeremy and Brian deegan wouldn't have the pathways to be themselves

Showtime! 🤙🏻🇺🇸

That plant needs more water
