Excellent Sea Otter Recap! I always enjoy your insights and listen to Hannah Otto wherever I find her! Adventurestache is one of my “never-miss” Pods

Payson scores big-name guests to interview on his podcast, but Payson’s strength is quickly moving beyond accomplishments and into the guest’s personality, history, drives and more.
Midwest FitKat via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/21/24
great podcast - interesting guests, engaging host. what really brothers me, though, is that Payson doesn’t know how to use “ironically” in a sentence. a second podcast episode being longer than the first isn’t ironic. I have found this in other episodes as well. by all means, use the phrases...Read full review »

Great pod, always an interesting listen.

I only recently began listening to Payson’s podcast and it has taken over as my primary listening. I have been plowing through all of the past episodes. He is super articulate and engaging. His rapport with racers and others in the industry makes the conversations required listening for me. Keep...Read full review »

Love Payson’s pod! Every week it’s a great conversation with guests you want to learn more about. Keep ‘em coming!!!

Payson has a natural talent interviewing his guests. He makes them feel comfortable and always has genuine compliments on there accomplishments. I really enjoy listening to each podcast. Super job and keep it up. Some day I’ll get to meet Payson at a race and I look forward to that day. 👍❤️🇺🇸👏

great conversation with two good humans.
CrossfitJeepsLove via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/12/23
Feel like I’m sitting behind the scenes with the pros listening to them decompress from the day. All the drama and non drama. How the sport could be better for everyone not just the pros. Great audio quality!!! Love getting to know the riders and what makes their pedals turn. Thanks for a...Read full review »

Taylor and Payson are like deep organic thinkers.

Love the show, but not opening theme. Small critique, which I can fast forward.

Can ride a bike and Is an absolute good bloke. 6/5 stars.
Gazcubby via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 11/21/22
Love this show. Equal parts inspiring, informative and comic, a lot like athletics itself.
bac 666 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/17/22
Phenomenal guests, if only the host would shut up! Poorly framed questions and deplorable follow ups! It’s like he doesn’t hear the guest or know how to transition the conversation. Seems like the personalities enjoy being there but the conversations are to disjointed and tangential.
RhubarbVIVII via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/31/22
I’ve been listening to this podcast for six months or so, and am now digging into older episodes and enjoying them immensely. I am not familiar with the professional biking scene and Payson’s keen, yet casual interview style illuminates the personalities and details of professional life in a way...Read full review »

What a wonderful discussion you had with Mo. it is so heartbreaking to listen to.
onmyR3 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/21/22
I do enjoy your show 5 stars…I cannot, however, resist voicing my concern that neither you or Quinn could confirm whether Lemond won an elite RR rainbow jersey. Umm yes, 2x ‘83 & ‘89. Payson gets a small break with his MTB pedigree, but Quinn’s waxing on about RR Worlds, US pride, etc...Read full review »

Really enjoying the race focus of the pod lately - really fun and interesting and provides more exposure to the top cyclists. I usually enjoy the pod, but when the subject matter drifts away from cycling a bit less so. Keep it up!
jakesogoalls via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/20/22
Ironically, I became a fan of Payson McElveen, the athlete, after being a fan of his podcast for some time. He has a helper’s heart and it shows in his genuine curiosity of his guests. Two of my favorite episodes are the ones with Sarah Sturm and Jamie Bestwick where Mr. McElveen’s compassion...Read full review »

I find so meany of your pod cases and the people on your pod casts very interesting. This episode has to be my favourite. Because of the insight both of you have in the bike industry and your willingness to talk openly about that industry. And all the other topics you both spoke of. Keep up...Read full review »

So glad I „discovered“ Payson‘s podcast through a Zwift ride a while back. Love the diverse mix of guests and topics, and Payson has such talent for guiding conversations. Thanks for the great work to everyone involved!

Haven’t listened to an episode yet that I haven’t enjoyed. Makes me want to turn Pro at 37 years old. 😂
jbowkett84 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/06/21
I found cycling at a late age, which also means I found Payson’s podcast late. But the flip side means that there are hours and hours of old podcasts for me to binge. Payson has a natural interview style that I dig. His show just flows. I suspect it’s easier to get your guests talking when you’re...Read full review »

Payson does an amazing job in getting a diverse group of interesting people. Great topics and entertaining insights. High quality editing makes it flow well. I have been a long time fan of cycling and I have learned a lot about the broader community of the sport: from being exposed to new...Read full review »

I’ve listened to every episode of this podcast. Payson always has interesting guests and the conversation is always so natural and captivating. As this show progresses it seems to only be getting better. Do yourself a favour and subscribe. Shout out to Lily for the great editing as well!
taylor.langdon via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 01/18/21
I have listened for several months now. It’s frustrating because he’ll bring on solid guests and I get excited, but then the questions will ramble on about extraneous things in the athletes life. Just finished the interview with Stephane Tiempre. He brings a world class athlete on and rambles on...Read full review »

Having been following Payson and his cycling career for a little while I stumbled on his podcast series. What a true treat to hear from those who live life by what gives them the most joy.

Quality guest. Good dude. Keep at it mate.

I found this podcast about 5 month ago and I enjoyed it at first. Loved listening to it on my way to work. Lately, a few things have really been getting to me. Chief among them is the extent to which Payson talks during the podcast. Maybe It’s just me but I really want to hear from the guests and...Read full review »
FredandGidget via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/22/20
Listening to Payson explain tokenism ("I'll let you guys explain it but I'll give my perspective first") was cringey at best. When he went on to say that women should stop complaining about getting better sponsorship deals for being hot because "that's just the way it...Read full review »

A perfect balance of professionalism and fun brings out the most from Payson’s incredible guests. He does a great job asking the right questions at the right time to steer a playful, raw and authentic narrative. Thank you for providing quality content with all the right vibes!

It’s been fun to add this pod cast to my rotation. Quarantine Companion with Justin Williams has been a very thoughtful addition and podcast 67 with Christopher Blevins was very thought provoking.
REDBULL8789 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/04/20
Please no more eating on the podcast!! My poor ears. Otherwise it’s one of my favorites.
Dmacrun via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/02/20
Bro this is some seriously awesome listening.. huge fan of the pod. Especially the few leading up to quarantine.. awesome guests made even more awesome by your laid back and engaging interview style. Keep it up!!

If you only listen to one episode listen to ep. 67 with Chris Blevins. Great discussion and insightful. Great job guys!
djheuring via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/19/20
Really enjoy this podcast. Great mix of cycling details/dorkiness and real life stuff. Payson is a great character and very impressive and organized host. You can tell he works very hard at this. Justin Williams has been a fun add, but definitely doesn’t have the hosting skills of Payson. It is...Read full review »

I listen to this podcast when I need a change of pace during the day and some cycling inspiration! Payson delivers time and time again

Payson is very articulate, energetic, and engaging. I love learning more from him and his guests. Would highly recommend this show!

Discovered The Adventure Stache a couple of months back and have been loving it - in the spirit of the Quarantine Companion, one thing lockdown has given me is the time to catch up on all the shows.
