“Great varied coverage of the sport”

“Commentary is decent, but cadence is behind other better podcasts - Cycling Podcast, LTR, and Escape. Andrew Hood is wasted on this pod and the only one who seems to be actually current on what is happening in cycling.
Bobby seems to only be casually following the events in cycling (they aren’t...”Read full review »

“Many of the, ‘Fast Talk,’ shows are excellent! Get Joe Lindsey on board, he would be a great anchor, seriously. I don’t know him or anything, he just does good solid cycling commentary- straight faced. Bobby J truly is a sockling luminary! It’s uncanny but true that Caley from CT, Fred Dreier and...”Read full review »

“Ben Delaney, may know a lot about cycling, may be a good print journalist. NOT a voice host.
Really miss Fred. Used to really look forward to the podcast. Not anymore.
Ben. You should listen to one of your own podcasts. They’re not good.”

“Please don’t let Ben take over podcast hosting duties! His articles and general contribution to VN is great, but he is the worst choice for host. His voice is so dull and boring. I could not sit through the last podcast and won’t sit through this second one, either. It’s like listening to a...”Read full review »

“Fred’s interview skills and cycling knowledge are not great, he does a lot of skimming over details and often spouts some pretty offensive opinions. The new host from Manx is bit of a rambler. Bring back James and Andy and maybe hand Fred’s hosting duties to Bobby Julich or Andy.”

“The VeloNews podcast is a great weekly refresher on world tour racing and behind the scenes insights and gossip. Production quality isn’t amazing, but bearable. However, in the age of the podcast renaissance, can you please take the simple step of muting your notifications while recording?”

“My unvarnished views: Cut the silly circus clown music at the beginning and try not to be so dopey. I must say there are some segments that don’t have this element and are rather good, but Im so turned off that I find myself looking for other ways to get cycling news.”

“The day you guys really make an effort on prononciation is the day you'll gain followers.
Sorry but your average post race coverage and poor pronunciation (sometimes 2-3 times different in one phrase) are far below what I expect from a name like velo news.
Best of luck going forward.”Read full review »

“I got a smart trainer in 2017 but didn't really get started on it till 2018. I got the book Fast after 50 by Joe Friel and create my own workouts. I had three types, aerobic threshold steady state, lactate threshold intervals, and VO2 max intervals. Based on fast after 50 I had a list of...”Read full review »

2. Training info is usually helpful
3. Dietary info / fueling strategies helpful
4. Racer interviews are usually...”Read full review »

“Little insight and lots and lots of talking (mostly nonsense) make for a boring and long program).
Best go elsewhere for race analysis and insightful news, or stick around here for the empty words.”

“Watch out for sponsors getting praise in what are clearly not objective reviews. FastTalk, sponsored by Whoop, talked up Whoop and included a Whoop-sponsored athlete in their review of how to monitor recovery. Very disappointing in what is generally a carefully researched podcast.”

“There is a shortage of insightful cycling pod casts so I will continue to listen. That said, for whatever talents Fred may have, he is super annoying constantly making the story and podcasts about himself. He should stick to asking questions and leaving his opinions to himself.”
