“I love the long form podcast. Ian has opened my eyes to a few challenges that I wouldn’t have otherwise considered. I always listen with an ear out for something new and a refresh of classics in the ultra scene.”

“Yes it’s about running but it’s far too serious! It’s only running! I’m an ultra runner and yes I take it really seriously but gosh it’s about having fun on the way. The last thing we want is a podcast taking themselves way too seriously!”

“If you are a conservative and a Trump supporter. Ian despises you. I just received a very hostile email response from him after I expressed my concern over his comments about politics. There is no escape...not even my trail running podcasts. If you are a conservative American, you are listening...”Read full review »

“Some excellent guests and enjoy Karl’s input when he can get a word in. Would prefer less info on Ian’s itinerary and more from the runners themselves. Wouldn’t mind mixing up the elite perspective with a few interviews directed towards normal runners to have a few takeaways to improve our own...”Read full review »

“Used to be good but lost interest a few years ago. Guests aren’t as good anymore and Speedgoat Carl (co host) is hardly on, and he was the best part. And Ian (host) loves himself too much.”

“All around great interviews by Ian. Great commentary by Speedgoat Karl. Newer co-interviews from the “godfather of trails” will continue to improve we hope. Without this show I would not know much about all the great international races and fell/sky running. Thanks Ian!”

“Ian may have a lot to say, as described by a few reviews,but that’s his skill. His knowledge is such that he gets the best out of the interviews. Great podcast and a little ‘dare I say’ inspirational at times.”

“I like this podcast but it can be a bit frustrating. Whenever he's intereviewing an amazing woman, he won't let them speak. In a 10 minute inteview, he will speak for 7 minutes and the interviewee will only get to speak for 3 minutes. It's frustrating that he won't let the...”Read full review »

“As an ultrarunner, I come back to this podcast from time to time to give it another chance. And each time, I remember why I abandoned it.
Most recently, the interview with Karl Meltzer pulled me in. Who doesn't want to hear about Speedgoat's amazing feat on the AT?
Instead, it was an...”Read full review »
