  • Great but couple of minor gripes

    Really great long form pods, often best ones are with people never heard of, also many of the beat pro cyclists aren’t very eloquent or interesting. My only gripes are Jack constantly repeating his own antidotes and when he talks over his guests by extending the question he’s asking when the guest had started to answer…i know its not always easy on VC but try harder cos i want to hear what they have to say :-)
