Airhead 247 Podcast: Darren Lew (Uber Enthusiast - part 1) Jun 20, 2025

Show notes

On the program this week, uber airhead enthusiast and cinematographer Darren Lew AND— we welcome back Katie Hunter with another Moto She Wrote audio essay. Darren is a 247 enthusiast of the highest order and like me and many of us...he is diving deep, turning over stones, contemplating and sometimes losing sleep consternating on all things airhead. In his professional life Darren is an accomplished cinematographer who has worked on a number of television and film projects you most assuredly are familiar with. Our conversation lasted for well over two hours and we still had more to discuss. So our chat with Darren will be spread out in two episodes, starting with Part 1 right here. We’ve got a lot to cover, so it’s off to Brooklyn, NY for a visit with Darren Lew on the Airhead 247 Podcast.

Show notes

Join us for a chat with Charley Boorman from the Long Way moto-travel series. The latest edition Long Way Home is out now on Apple TV and this time Charley and Ewen are on vintage bikes—Ewan a 74 Moto Guzzi Eldorado and Charley on a R 75/5. Though we don’t give away much of how the bikes did in this interview, it’s safe to assume the /5 represented itself quite well and Charley has a pointed comment on how the 247 stacked up against the Guzzi.
