Episode 5 - Masonic Riding Associatons

Episode 8 - Meet Street Bob Brown

This episode sees the lads sit down with well-known local biker Street Bob Brown for a relaxed and honest chat about motorcycle life, biker culture, friendships, and the sense of community that comes from life on two wheels. From stories on the road to the characters you meet along the way, Bob shares his passion for biking and why the lifestyle means so much to so many people. The conversation covers everything from camaraderie and loyalty within the biking scene to the freedom, escapism, and connections that motorcycles can bring. As always, Trog and Donkey keep things informal, humorous, and real, with another episode full of laughs, stories, and genuine conversation. Whether you’re a lifelong biker, new to the scene, or simply enjoy hearing authentic people share their experiences, this is an episode not to miss. So stick the kettle on, grab a brew, and join the lads for another ride through the worlds of bikes, brotherhood, and beyond on Asphalt & Aprons.

Episode 7 - Fight That Matters Isn’t In The Ring

Alright, alright—settle in, grab a brew… or don’t, we’re not your dad. Welcome back to the podcast—where the roads are long, the conversations are questionable, and somehow we still end up learning something. Today’s episode? Bit of a mad one, to be honest. We’ve got Pawel Zakrzewski in the hot seat—co-founder of the Edinburgh Combat Project, steward at Lodge Colinton and Currie No. 1092, and riding with the Widows Sons Solomon’s Guard Masonic crew. So yeah… not exactly a man who’s got “free time” pencilled into the diary. This is a guy who’s out here building fighters, building people, building a charity—and still somehow finding time to throw a leg over a motorbike and disappear down the road like he’s got nowhere to be… even though he’s got about twelve places to be. And the thing is—he’s not just busy for the sake of it. There’s purpose behind it. Proper drive. The kind that makes you feel like maybe you should’ve done more with your morning than scroll your phone for an hour. We get into all of it—the graft behind growing something that actually helps people, the brotherhood side of things, the bikes, the mindset… and how on earth he manages to stitch it all together without completely losing the plot. So yeah—if you’ve ever wondered how someone balances fighting, charity, personal growth, and a love of two wheels… stick around. This one’s a belter. Let’s get into it.
