God on a quad is back
Its been too long! Where can I get a God on a quad t-shirt??
...and how much more Zen would it be if he was on a bike rather than in a car?
That brought me nothing but joy on a miserable Saturday night, cheers
I want to drive with that much calm
Why is that so watchable. Soooo zen
Revelling in the new elevated production values.
"Thank you yellow mop man, you're doing sterling work" made me laugh far more than perhaps it should have done!
"I dream of a future, run by scooter riders who communicate through echo location beeps."
😎
"Papa John's, the fourth emergency service of the apocalypse."
🤣
Hah brilliant
Stay Calm when every other nutter makes you wanna facepalm.....
🙂
I love these vids.

Free MemberI didn’t realise, but this Ogmios is actually a rapper. Pretty good too. A vegan as well, so stw naturally would love him. 😉
yep, love his verse on 'no more summer', starts about a minute in
eta; absolute tune at the end of the new ep 😎
My day is so much better after watching that. Loved it. Subscribed and off for another dose!
I needed that.

And big on the not very big rap battling scene (on which one of my kids did an anthropology piece. Someone has to. Or not.) Google up his battle with 'Accent', who from my geographical perspective doesn't have that much of an accent:
You threaten me with physical violence,
I threaten you with spiritual enlightenment
He's also a PE teacher, if no one's said...
Well that's knocked Mabel and Olive off their perch. Brilliant.
i found that and his other vid really nice
Did anyone else get an ASMR reaction of that? My neck and shoulders feel lovely now and i don't want to move them
Can't find Accent. Did you mean Dialect?
I loved that, the only bit I didn’t like was when I discovered there were only 3 episodes and I’d watched them all.

☺️ Sorry, yeah, dialect. Proof I don't Google...
I find the dash cam stuff poignant having spent 14 formative years in the area.
That's sublime entertainment! How to keep your head while all around you are losing theirs!
I wasn't a hothead driver but I've watch these vids a few times since they first appeared and apart from being very entertaining I honestly reckon I'm even calmer behind the wheel. I enjoy creating and responding to the bonhomie - the double wave et al, and the inner (or outer) monologue about the other road users.
Was that a triple wave?
🙂
Most excellent
Loving the videos, very relaxing! How come Previas and Priuses are so prevalent round there? I means Priuses I guess cos of Uber and the congestion charge? (Lives in Aberdeen so no idea!)
I even found it super useful when riding into work. I was just channeling the zen spirit instead of getting wound up. Much nicer

It's one of the big Jewish communities of London. Big families.
I grew up near Golders Green and it was all 7 seater Volvo estates and eclass Mercs back then.
Just stumbled into this when I wondered if there were any more episodes (though dated Feb 2021).

Zen School Of Motoring (6 episodes x 15 min) is a timely, meditative take on the world from the mysterious Ogmios, a strong new comic voice with affectionate humour and unique worldview. Contemporary and contemplative, the series journeys with Ogmios as he travels in his car across the streets of London. We meet his community, while he philosophises and shows off his rap battle abilities against the backdrop of an ASMR-infused, atmospheric, dream-like soundscape.
Peace man, peace.
I will watch them.
They announced that yonks ago, did it ever get broadcast?
Excellent, but I'm sure I've heard him doing some voice-over work.
6 episodes now on iPlayer. Watch now before the Tories abolish the BBC.
Are they only on iPlayer? I don't have a tv license and don't want to have to wait until 2027 😉
Think only the original 3 are on his Youtube channel.
🌊🌊🌊 <<--- gets a triple wave from me,go safe scooter boys.
Righteous!
...excellent and not a moment too soon as, being honest, my calmness levels have been dipping of late.
Love his work but very glad I don't live in London. Let's see how cool he'd remain if he had to drive around Basingstoke.

"ahhh another roundabout ...... where are we going ......... WHO THE **** KNOWS THEY ALL LOOK THE SAME AND THE SIGNPOSTS DONT MAKE ANY SENSE"
I may have twice tried to navigate through Basingstoke without a Sat Nav, whoever did the signs was a madman, you can't just drive upto the ring road and keep going until you see a sign for a town in the general direction you're heading, it just traps you in endless loops for hours.
Tyred Jr the elder is about to start learning to drive, I'm keen that he follows the Zenway code as well as the Highway code.
Love his work but very glad I don’t live in London.
By following the Zenway code, it makes London a perfectly pleasant place to drive or ride or even scooter.
IDK if I like the scripted interlude idea; then again I like the scripted interludes themselves. I don't need internal mind conflicts though, so I shall just accept them being there as something that is, not something I choose.

Very Zen.
✌ peace, out.
Not all battle rappers are quite so zen. Here's a well known clip, dubbing translates the vernacular into standard non sweary english
Filmed in my neighbourhood! Loved that, very funny 👍
Loved that - thanks OP and whoever resurrected the thread.
Max motoring chill now on your telly.
Sorry late to the party and didn't read back far enough. Worth a bump all the same. Peace.
