Podcast: Wyn Masters Speaks to Josh Button on the Highs & Lows of World Cup DH racing
For Episode 5 of the 'Wyn or Lose Podcast' I speak to Aussie rider Josh Button and he discusses his road to becoming a Pro rider and the tough ups and downs along the way, which lead to him eventually taking some time away from the sport and then to coming back and getting on the podium at Cairns DH World Cup in 2016, and going back to work the next week.
Also available here on Apple or here for Spotify
This episode shows truely how brutal our sport can be at times and how mentally tough Josh is to not back down.

Button is a mad dog oozing natural talent. People might say he had a home ground advantage at Cairns, but no one goes to Cairns and ridea the wc track in their spare time

That was a wicked underdog story for him. It just doesn't seem to happen all that often in WC racing.

Good call interview of this talent . At first glance I read it as “Josh Bryceland”. We need the Wyn-Bryceland interview. What’s The Rat doing now? Reinvented himself as someone else? Miss seeing him around here.

I got rid of all my boomerangs and didgeridoos a few years ago.
Figured I'd check my cultural appropriation before it got out of hand mate!
