The podcast thread

I’ll have to listen to the latest show. Not sure what this means for Spencer. He’s gotten quite good as host.

They dropped JB Hagar like a hot rock last Fall. Most have been bitter because they let him go unceremoniously

The Lance show is the light hearted review of the TDF. Johan last year did a more serious review show of the TDF. This is effectively the same show with a different co-host.

So it seems the primary show is lance, George, Bradley, and Spencer.

and the tactical conversation show is bruyneel and Bradley. Which should be interesting to hear Bradley’s analysis.

No JB gomer Pyle Hagar this year. Thank the heavens!

I don't know that Spencer is any better than Hagar. At least with Hagar there's no pretense of knowing anything.

Good lineup though with Sir Brad. He's got some great insights.

Regarding Horner's YouTube channel, does he not show race video due to licensing fees? I see the LRCP show video on their channel. Is that simply a matter of paying for the rebroadcast rights? If so, I wonder how much it is.

When Unchained is no more this is the closest to a documentary fix I get. Like listening to Visma team radio live

Did anyone notice on Wedu when Lance talked about how he liked being nice to people like "it's fun being nice to people".
Hincapie; "you tell ME that?".

Such a dig

 

[noob]

Someone please tell me; has Lance created this "I'm the one being bullied" image on his podcast or has Hincapie simply amoged him? (Yes I've read Neil Strauss lol)

Very bad episode last night from Lanterne Rouge. The disappointment is understandable of course, but I really felt they dropped the ball on this one. The Tour was basically decided and they acted like it was a random stage and spent more time debating breakaway stuff. POG took 2 minutes on hautacam - like wtf!

It's unfortunate to have them (especially PB) deliver valuable insights all year and at the climax of the season they show no excitement or interest at all. Sigh.

Lance definitely feigning besieged. But the truth is in kernels especially when George says lance won’t answer his texts or lance is grumpy in the morning, etc. that’s pretty much the man.

It is interesting to see lance around wiggans. He’s genuinely intimidated by wiggans. Or is afraid Wiggins will blow his lid any second

LRCP is getting more and more difficult to listen to. I don’t understand how Patrick hasn’t gotten tired of Benji as a co-host yet. Pretty much every episode now he just goes on massive rants about random talking points he saw on twitter, constantly interrupts and talks over Patrick when he’s trying to say something insightful, and skips over anything with nuance so he can get to a punchline he’s been saving up. It feels like it’s 80% Benji talking at this point. I would be so frustrated if I was Patrick trying to make a podcast with insight and structure while the other host is only interested in hearing themselves talk.

I have heard he muted himself after pog went hautacam. Sb wrote that in the comments

I had not noticed that he's afraid of Wiggins. I don't understand why he would be either.

Since I never saw Lance riding and only listened to books about him and then suddenly he had a podcast I expected a psychopath but I get such different vibes. I see no charm, but rather he acts like a 20 y o sad guitar player who gets chicks from being broody 🤣🤣🤣 Like a good looking guy wallowing in self pity.

Like he is less and less cocky in the podcast while George is like a dad or bully. Because Lance absolutely craves attention more than anything in the world. Like a kid. And George is grown-up. 🤣

That's my overall assessment of their vibes. I've not manged to understand Wiggins and Lance interactions yet,but it was hilarious when Wiggins made a dirty joke that Lance and George are almost prude in comparison. The difference between Europe and US is sometimes stark 🤣

Every second video on my Youtube feed seems to be a variation of the Lance crew nowadays. They don't do the one I actually enjoyed anymore unfortunately, which was basically just Bruyneel talking about cycling with the host Hager, who seems to have been given the boot for Wiggo.

I know Patrick Lanterne reads these boards so please start the cricket podcast you promised, most of the major content in that space is in Hindi or Gujarati so there's a huge gap in the market.

does he?! How do you know he does?

He said he scoured every English, Spanish, German language forum he could for transfer information during the off season, plus various references when that whole mou thing was going on, so watch what you say noob, anyone could be seeing it .

I remember Tarling's dad used to post on here, until you lot scared him off like some sort of heathen witch. Same with Vaughters, iirc there was some sort of drama with Benson taking quotes he made on here for the main site and him getting angsty about it, but it was so long ago I might've misremembered.

I have seen old Vaughters threads here yes.
I'm honestly assuming there might be a lot of old pros here under anonymous accounts. I mean among the people that cares.

I once had someone speak about something I said here to the point that I was wondering if they had read what I had written. I can't remember who it was nor what it was about. All I can remember was thinking I had had gone completely delusional because it made zero sense to actually care about anything a weirdo calling themselves "noob" says.
