  • Great Athletics podcast

    I really appreciate the Citius Mag podcast and being a European based fan also the fact that you include an international view on the sport

    The podcast is off cause basically US focused, but I really enjoy the weekly summary show where you are focusing on the international picture of our sport. I really enjoy the inclusion of Preet Majithia, who ensure the European angle. I understand Preet is a relative newcomer to the sport, and as such I find his analysis (also of the more technical aspects, ... more

  • Want to be a fan

    I used to love this podcast… And really want to again! But the amount of times Chris says “I guess” to prompt a question has made it so hard to listen. At least 50x a pod. You’re great Chris. And you know a lot. Don’t need to guess!

  • Great show for all things Track and Field

    This is a show I didn’t know I needed. I’ve been a runner for a long time but had never followed the professional sport outside of the Olympics and marathon majors. Chris and the team bring a ton of knowledge and energy to the sport and have me following it all year long. Their athlete interviews get you into the minds of the athletes - the highs, the lows, and everything in between. Listening to the pod is like hanging out with your buddies to talk about this beautiful sport. Thanks for all you... more
