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.
Same, not even a Max fan but the hate got to be too much for my taste.
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.
Read back Philpot’s twitter feed from around that period. Not just towards Max, but the tone he hit in regards to Masi was also way over the top for me. Put them in the same bin as the toxic twitter environment for me.
But don’t want to make it too negative from my end either, they did great in the past and am sure they are back to their best again. So if that’s the case They are absolutely a good tip to listen to.
