Episode 98 - Pogačar’s Mix-n-Match Giro Kit, DJ’s Bike Fit Sorcery, Scott’s Return to Gravel, and The Traka 360… or is it the Traka 200?

What up party people. Sorry, I don’t know why I just did that. Apparently we’re putting these things back on YouTube now because so many of y’all requested to not just listen to our dreamy voices each week but you actually want to see our beautiful faces too. SO I didn’t want to look like Will Farrel and not know what to do with my hands but I think whatever I just did was actually worse. Anyways, we’re talking Giro updates and whatever in the hell Tadej has going on with his mix-matched kit, we answer some listener questions pertaining to DJ and the bike fit sorcery he has going on, Scott tells us about his planned return to gravel racing to try and upkeep his undefeated record, and we also touch on some happenings across the pond at the Traka 360 this past weekend. Or is it the 200? No one knows.

Episode 96 - The Redemption Episode ft. Sea Otter Recap, Tire Talk, and More

What up party people. Let’s just address the giant elephant in the room from the jump. Last weeks audio straight up sucked. I know it, you know it, and apparently every beer binging, cat loving internet troll also knows it too. Look, I did the best I could to try and salvage the entire episode while working with corrupted files but lesson learned, now I know to just scrap it rather than put out a dumpster fire episode like that again. Anyways, I had more time to work with yet another set of jank ass files this week so I’m coining this the redemption episode because after days of editing I was able to revive the final cut back to our usual standards (which fortunately that bar is already pretty low). We are actively seeking a replacement for myself so I can better spend my time and alleviate myself from all the hate mail and death threats from y’all hooligans (okay luckily there weren’t any actual death threats but damn it sure felt like it at times). SO if you’re listening and you think you have the skills to be a top notch producer and want to throw your application in the hat, you’ve got until end of day Sunday to drop us a note. We’re looking to hire someone stat. Let’s see, what else. Oh yeah, the episode. We’ve got Sea Otter recap, tire talk, and more coming right up.
