  • Charming take on triathlon

    A good addition to the usual triathlon podcast lineup. The host is new to the sport which is a little surprising at first, but ultimately adds to his charm. His conversational style is refreshing and he doesn’t have any preconceived notions about his guests. Refreshing.

  • Lots of GREAT questions

    Seth has found interesting guests and asks excellent questions. The interview with Julie Dibens was awesome on so many levels. I hope Seth continues to do what he’s obviously good at.
