Dissecting gymnastics with some social commentary
I’m not a gymnast but my wife is so I end up listening to this all the time. It’s my favorite gymnastics pod cast. Jessica is BIG personality and Spencer is sorta Big but also sweet. They are both intelligent and engaging. Together they are delightful. They are exceptionally knowledgeable about gymnastics. They go into detail and questions on things I might find myself wondering about as a watcher of gymnastics with my wife. They fill in the gaps of my knowledge. I love this. Jessica is also a NorCal native and I’m a SoCal native though now live in NorCal therefore very Californian. Jessica speaks the way Bay Area people of her age with an interest in social topics speak. I don’t mind it. In some ways I think it’s very brave because it could be a turn off for many listeners and could lose them listeners. There have been a lot of comments about her being a racist against Asians and anti semite. This is strange to me. I’m pretty confident in my ability to gauge this as my wife is Jewish and I’ve lived in Japan for 7 years and feel very aligned with Asia in my heart. If I had heard anything that sounded racist, it would be a reason to not listen to this. I feel there are lots of low reviews of this podcast but these are not reflective of it being a bad podcast, but more a review reflecting on the person giving the review.

As a gym fan in the rural Midwest, this podcast is my only source of intelligent, substantial, and entertaining gymnastics information. Unlike gymnastics magazine that have pages of surface level interviews or childish articles, GymCastic is an hour or two of legitimate conversation from people...Read full review »
