Today we're joined by Kate Mason, the presenter tasked with taking MTB to the masses through Warner Brothers Discovery's coverage. I thought it would be great to get to know a bit more about Kate and her experiences in the sport so far. We discuss Kate's background and her route into sports journalism. Find out what goes into covering the sport we all love, and hear how Kate is settling in. Kate also opens up about her experiences with online hate and much more. So, it’s time to sit back, hit play and listen to this episode with Kate Mason. You can also watch this episode on YouTube here. You can follow Kate on Instagram @kvlmason.
