  • Stop putting the race spoiler in the show description!

    Great podcast BUT if you keep putting the race winner in the top line of the show notes I will unsubscribe. Some of us avoid all media and only listen to podcasts so we can watch the race replay later but as soon as I go to find a podcast to listen to in my library, the top line of your show notes always has the race winner in it.

    Simple change - please listen!

  • Fab, but avoid to dodge spoilers

    Great for getting updates, but results for qualifying and race are listed in the caption. Opening podcasts has ruined it for me more than once.
