  • Swap is a must for moto fans.

    Love everything you do. I’ve really been LOVING the RJ and Wardy shows. Podium to Present has been awesome. Great addition to the channel! Please keep them coming! These are great to when there’s no race this weekend. I’ve heard them all at least twice and sent them to all my older vet friends. They’ve loved them too!

    It's insane to me that you won't fix the audio your listeners have been complaining about since you started this thing

  • Good pod, bad audio. Worse sponsor reads

    I understand good equipment is expensive but you’re a legit show. Buy some quality stuff. It’s hard to even choose a volume level because it’s quiet and then go’s obnoxiously loud.

    Side note- the sponsor reads from athletes are unbearable.

    They are clearly reading off a sheet off a script and they’re not fluent in the slightest. Did you only do one take with each of them and call it good?
