  • These guys are the best

    I can’t believe they’ve put out over 850 episodes and going strong week after week! Triathlon news, training tips, interviews, history, tech, gossip more.

    I’ve listened to them since around 2007 almost every week and it’s never been a boring show. John and Bevan’s are the real Legends of Triathlon IMO

  • 5 stars isn’t enough!

    I’ve listened to the podcast on and off for several years, and every one of them is not only informative, but hilarious. The content is good, and the interplay between John and Bevan takes it to the next level. I’d honestly say this podcast deserves note than 5 stars!
