Quickly becoming my favourite podcast. Payson is a natural communicator and interviewer (and also one who does his research on each guest), who seems to put all his guests at ease and get the best and previously untold stories (as much the non-cycling as the cycling) out of every interview.
Great episode with Haley. She’s a great cyclist and your podcast is a fantastic way to learn more about the riders beyond their cycling career. I love Haley’s style and down to earth persona. 🇺🇸🇨🇦👍
It’s the best - down to earth with just enough inside baseball
Payson has a knack for finding the hidden gems, both in his selection of guests and in how he is able to encourage his guests to open up and talk about their perspective and experience. Payson is the real deal!!
Thanks for all of the quality conversations on each episode. My 6 year old asks to listen to the guy with the huge mustache when we’re riding together now! Keep doing great work.
