Love to listen to a guy stammer and chuckle/giggle constantly with little substance being said
This show used to be great—amongst the best of the bunch. But man it has gotten difficult to continue supporting. The first Forty minutes of this last episode was nothing but off topic chit chat completely unrelated to F1. One of the hosts regularly now says he doesn’t like watching F1. Their former passion for F1 carried me through a lot of excitement. Now, it’s a downer. Legitimately, the last couple times I listened to this podcast it sapped my excitement for F1.
Seems like every episode now Rob goes off on how terrible the US is. I just want to hear about fast cars. Unsubscribed
I listen to podcasts to try to avoid the politics of the day. It seems like the last year or two, this podcast has shifted way more political so it’s no longer an escape from the negativity in the world. Really wish they’d go back to just F1 rather than backhanded political comments through out the show.
I’ve been a listener for years, but the latest episodes of gossiping about personalities and negativity really put me off. Far from being an informative race centric show, this podcast has become increasingly gossipy and nasty. It’s just not for me anymore.
Key themes from listener reviews, highlighting what works and what could be improved about the show.

The hosts' strong personalities and willingness to critique governing decisions create a distinctive voice that can be entertaining for fans who want both technical insight and personality-driven discussion. The format likely appeals to both long-time fans and newer listeners seeking accessible, lively coverage of weekend outcomes and broader motorsport context, with occasional debates that may polarize some li... more
