  • Great guests, poor host

    A good reminder of why I typically only listen to this if there is absolutely nothing else out there. Dude is just not professional, seems more concerned with answering his own questions and injecting his weird, borderline xenophobic thoughts. Uncomfortable to listen to.

  • Awesome podcast

    It has given me great insight about what the top runner do, and I always listen to a new one when I’m not running with the team. Keep doing what you’re doing, Dominic!
