* MotoGP Silly Season checkin
* News and Reader Email

Jules Cisek does the show alone and it's a super short one. Not much in the news and it's been a strange week (this episode was recorded at a bus station in San Francisco o.O). Jules goes over where we're at in the Silly Season for 2010. Is Stoner returning? Simoncelli riding for Aprilia at WSBK Imola?

WARNING: a little bit of cussing in this show...

This show is being posted way late. Sorry about that. A pickle with Jules' motorcycle Thursday night meant no time to do the final edit.
