  • The Dirt Division

    Love The Drop podcast but the new hosts from The Dirt Division, specifically Taylor, needs to stop interrupting his co-host while she speaks. It’s hard to listen when he’s constantly doing this. Let her speak and let her finish her sentences!

  • Time to leave vacation mode…

    I love this podcast (the Friday episode, I rarely listen to the Monday edition). It’s been a constant companion during my long run for the last few years but of late it feels a bit like a lifeless travelogue. I’m happy that their brand has really taken off and they get to travel to the world’s best running events, but it doesn’t necessarily make for an entertaining podcast. I actually switched to another podcast today after their fancy hotdog conversation started dragging just a bit too long.... more

  • Medical misinformation is getting way out of hand

    Comparing unregulated ephedra/ephedrine-containing supplements to an FDA-approved (current bonkers state of the FDA notwithstanding) drug like ozempic is totally insane and irresponsible. I used to enjoy this podcast but this is just the latest in a long series of totally uninformed takes on all things medical and it’s just too much. Y’all need to stay in your lane.

  • Stop interrupting your guests

    The Ben Gibbard interview was really bad. Thomas really needs to learn how to interview respectfully and stop interrupting. Also the negative comments about elites dropping out of Western States was pretty cringey. You got a ride to the escapement…

  • I love the Friday podcast!

    I love the Friday podcast. It’s chaos with a touch of running talk. Perfect for my runs. I consistently do not listen to the Monday podcast. I find that the amount of times that the BITR crew cut off their guests when speaking is hard to listen to. Gives their interview style a choppy and uncomfortable feel.
