  • Definitely worth joining

    The free feed is great but After Dark (as signaled by the owl — not a loon) is 10-15 min of quirky joy. A great podcast with a bit of everything.

  • Quality is decreasing

    The regular host Caley keeps missing episodes and the replacement isn’t nearly the same quality. Hopefully they correct this or I’ll unsubscribe to this similar to their tech focused geek warning podcast after the regular host James left.

    A really bloody good listen. Super easy going and funny as well as actually addressing all the topics you’d want to hear covered in a weekly cycling round up.
