    Big thanks to Podium. After the ‘nonsense’ of a certain co-owner of a US-based website’s track podcast, this is a breath of fresh air. Loved the two athlete interviews I listened to thus far.

There is a lot of deferring to Hannah particularly in the review episodes ( and her insights and nerdy stats are ideal in this respect- more of this please ... more
