  • We don’t care about your politics

    People are not buying EV. This podcast is getting exhausting. I listen 25% as much as I did last year.

    Keep them out of your commentary, be mature adults.

    The draft episode demonstrates how little Megan knows about F1.

  • A millions “Umms” and awkward chemistry

    Meg cannot stop saying UMM before every other sentence. Spanners cannot stop pathologically generating words (STOP GENERATING) and they have no conversational chemistry. It’s all awkward stops and overlaps and UMMs. Please just shoot me now I hate these two together

    When the host can’t even pronounce the drivers name right, I had to turn it off after 2 minutes. What the hell is this?
