D&M's with DEAN

I sit down with Bernard Kerr in his shed in Wales after spending the last few days riding, hanging out and catching up.In this episode, we get into all things Bernard — from his Hardline wins and what makes that event so special, to the challenge of running a race team while still being a professional racer himself.We also talk about his recent injury updates, the reality of balancing racing, business and life, and where we think downhill and mountain biking as a whole is heading.There’s plenty of racing stories, behind-the-scenes insight and a good chat between two people who have spent a big chunk of their lives around the sport.I think you guys are going to really enjoy this one.Thanks for watching and supporting the podcast.#MountainBiking #DownhillMTB #BernardKerr #Hardline #MTBLINKS:https://www.instagram.com/bernard_kerr/https://www.instagram.com/dnms.with.dean/https://www.instagram.com/deanos_mykonos/THIS SHOW IS SUPPORTED BY:BREATHEEZEDo you want to breathe easier, sleep better, and perform at your peak?

For over a decade, Alex Marín has been one of Spain's fastest downhill mountain bikers, carving out an impressive career on the UCI World Cup circuit. From standing on Junior World Cup podiums to consistently battling inside the Elite top 10 against the best riders in the world, Alex experienced every high and low that comes with racing at the highest level.After retiring from World Cup downhill, he didn't step away from competition. Instead, he embraced a new challenge, racing the E-Bike World Enduro Series before taking on one of the most exciting disciplines in cycling today: Red Bull's Urban Downhill events, where massive jumps, stair sets, and city streets become the race track.In this episode, Alex opens up about what it's really like to spend ten years chasing the World Cup dream, the sacrifices behind life as a professional athlete, the mental and physical demands of elite racing, and why he decided it was time to close one chapter and start another. We also dive into his transition into urban racing, adapting to a completely different style of competition, and what continues to fuel his passion for riding.Whether you're a mountain bike fan, an aspiring racer, or someone navigating life after a major career change, this conversation is packed with honest insights, great stories, and lessons from one of Spain's most accomplished downhill racers.LINKS:https://www.instagram.com/alex3marin/https://www.instagram.com/dnms.with.dean/https://www.instagram.com/deanos_mykonos/THIS SHOW IS SUPPORTED BY:BREATHEEZEDo you want to breathe easier, sleep better, and perform at your peak?

Most people think performance is about what you do… but what if it’s actually about what’s running beneath the surface?In this episode, I sit down with Justin Potts — a high-performance coach working across athletes, business owners, and everyday people who know they’re capable of more, but feel something holding them back.We get into the unconscious mind — how it shapes your decisions, your habits, and ultimately your life. Justin breaks down how anxiety isn’t something you have to live with, but something you can understand, rewire, and move through.This isn’t surface-level motivation. It’s about getting honest with yourself, uncovering what’s really driving your behaviour, and learning how to shift it so you can perform, live, and think at a higher level.If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed, or like you’re not quite reaching your potential — this one will hit.Connect with me:https://www.instagram.com/justin.potts.coaching/https://www.instagram.com/dnms.with.dean/https://www.instagram.com/deanos_mykonos/Do you want to breathe easier, sleep better, and perform at your peak?

This isn’t just a conversation about masculinity — it’s a reset.In a world where men are told to “man up” and stay silent, this podcast explores what it really means to be strong. Inspired by the work of Watene Waenga and the Amend Movement, we dive into emotional resilience, healing, and the courage to face what most men avoid.Through raw conversations and real stories, we unpack the patterns men inherit — silence, pressure, disconnection — and how to break them. This is about learning to lead yourself, build stronger relationships, and show up as a grounded, emotionally present man.Because healthy masculinity isn’t about dominance or suppression — it’s about awareness, accountability, and connection.If you’re ready to stop surviving and start living with purpose, this is where it begins.Links to Watene Waenga & His Work🌐 Official website:Amend Movement Official SiteInstagramhttps://www.instagram.com/watenewaenga/🎧 His podcast:Amend Movement Podcast💼 Organisation overview:Amend Movement on LinkedIn

Brendon Riley is a professional bull rider and fighter whose life has been one long ride with fear, pain, and adrenaline. From the chaos of his childhood — with his dad walking out and his mum battling alcoholism — Brendon learned early what it means to fight for himself. But over time, he’s realized the real fight wasn’t against bulls or opponents… it was against his own mindset.After years of chasing danger through skydiving, motocross, and the rodeo circuit, Brendon’s journey has become less about surviving the rush and more about mastering his inner world. He’s turned his pain into purpose — shifting from a victim of his story to the hero of it.Now, Brendon speaks on resilience, identity, and what it truly takes to rebuild yourself from the ground up. His story is proof that no matter where you come from, you can rewrite the ending — and rise stronger than ever.Connect with me:https://www.instagram.com/brendon_riley_/https://www.instagram.com/dnms.with.dean/https://www.instagram.com/deanos_mykonos/Do you want to breathe easier, sleep better, and perform at your peak?
