We're back for another year of the Tour de France. I promise to share everything you need, and not put you through hours of drivel. I'll tell you what to watch for, when to watch, and I'll break down what you just saw.

People ask for advice on their health insurance and health debt often. They also ask for updates on my case, which I’ve been scared to provide. In light of current events, I got a lot of folks suddenly asking “what ever happened with your thing, Phil?” So here it is…hopefully the last update on this whole mess. I hope this helps someone. Feel free to message me if you think I can help, or see the letter in my video description that I sent to various entities. I’m not a lawyer and never worked with a lawyer in this case, but it worked for me so maybe this is useful as a template.

I watch the races and the commentary, just waiting for someone to start screaming about whatever seems obvious or insane to me and needs to be pointed out in commentary or news analysis. When that doesn't happen, that means I have to make a video. This one explains why some nations have more riders than others, how that affects the tactics, and why a triathlete who DIDN'T START THE RACE is the best teammate of the 2024 Olympics so far, and some other things.

I'll finish this Tour de France series with a recap of the final stages, a summary of the winners and losers (by team and individual)--who's happy and who has to go back to the drawing board (factoring in team budgets and goals), and I'll also answer the question that I get most often, which therefore shouldn't be ignored: do I think the tour and its winners are clean?

Catching you up on the latest Tour de France news and results, from some big GC days, to close sprint finishes, and FINALLY a breakaway. Roglic pulling a "fuck it...I'll drop out and do the Vuelta," Pidcock out with Covid, and Geraint CONTINUING with Covid?

A summary of stages 4-9, some takes that I feel have been missing from TV coverage, and thoughts on tactics, riders, and the race overall.
