I got into podcasts recently. I know about the official beyond the grid, how is it? Do you have recommandations about others?

    Used to be a huge fan, but I felt the negativity crept in too much. I don’t mind being pro Lewis at all, but the hate towards Max sometimes is too much. They make it personal. Production is great though, if you are in to that.

        Interesting, I never got that feeling. They are generally pretty upfront about their biases so it never bothered me I guess.

          They might have toned it down a bit, can’t tell. But especially end 2021/2022 it got a bit out of hand (emotions ran high, i get that. Just didn’t need the hate in my podfeed).

          Still love their sessions with Joe Saward, that man is a legend.

            They have toned it down. Post 2021 season ending they received a lot of flak and have owned up to it. This is why they bring in a Dutch guest Jules Seegers often to even the tides (even though he isn’t a die hard Max fan).

        I started listening to them at the start of the 2022 season and personally don’t feel that they have any hate towards Max. It’s just that if you aren’t a Verstappen fan it’s hard to get excited about his performance when he wins every race.
