    The Best Olympic podcast
    The interviewer is excellent. He has a great rapport with all the athletes that he is interviewing. Also very few advertisements.
  • Reporter-3854
    Host needs help
    The host, Eddie Knowles, is a painfully bad interviewer. I just cringed listening to his questions for Surya Bonaly. He needs more training, please. Or more money for experienced production staff to do research and write the questions for him.
  • JillMozzarella
