  • So sorry to hear about the Italian holiday misadventure!

    We’ve all been there, and I “felt your pain.” You have a good match with your partner, if you weren’t on the brink of a break-up by the time you got to the beach. But at least you have a gained a new subscriber — and my guess is, quite a few more — from your appearance on Megan Schuster’s F1 podcast. I look forward to your take on the McLaren vs. McLaren stretch run of the season. When we can, we watch CFL games on TSN…and now we’ll be looking for F1 coverage as well!

  • Lando dominates Oscar in every head to head metric

    What a stupid way to start the podcast with claiming Oscar is the stronger driver, when Lando drove flawlessly to clinch the WCC for McLaren, carrying the hopes of 1000 team members on his shoulders, not to mention he destroyed Oscar in the head to head this year. What you said was purely what the abusers on social media have made up, if you took the time to actually look at facts and stats, no one would claim Oscar came anywhere near Lando’s level.
