Customer Reviews
Former Elite Athlete Still Learning a Few Things
They say even the best still have things to learn, and after having been an elite athlete for more than 20 years, and now a “fast-in-the-past” athlete, I love listening to this podcast for the nuggets of wisdom Isaiah provides and draws from his guests. Give it a listen, you will definitely come away with something to think about, and be entertained in the process.
Great stuff
This is a really great podcast. It offers a lot of unique perspective on racing bikes during a time when perspective is especially important. Good questions, interesting guests, etc...
Fantastic Interviews!
Great insights into successful young athletes dealing with and overcoming challenges. Very interesting to hear their stories, thoughtfully revealed by a former pro podcaster who’s lived the life himself. Keep up the good work!
