Customer Reviews
The Best Olympic podcast
The interviewer is excellent. He has a great rapport with all the athletes that he is interviewing. Also very few advertisements.
Great podcast for Olympics fans!
Wow! I’m so excited that this podcast exists! It offers great variety in terms of sports and they have amazing guests. Love it. Subscribed. Will listen every week.
Host needs help
The host, Eddie Knowles, is a painfully bad interviewer. I just cringed listening to his questions for Surya Bonaly. He needs more training, please. Or more money for experienced production staff to do research and write the questions for him.
