    Best cross country ski podcast!
    Been a fan for years now. Next level to have a live recording! This was epic, and amazing! Thanks Devon and Nat for keeping it going!!
  • Sarah Murray Senior
    #1 English language xc ski podcast
    Title says it all. Devon has the experience of perspective of a World Cup athlete. Nat brings some journalistic chops
  • madwaxc
    Fun, and informative
    I can’t get enough of this show. It’s a great option, if you want to keep tabs on World Cup cross-country skiing, get some insight to the sport, as well a good dose of rant and banter to keep things lively.
  • MatthewBart26
    Awesome!
    Great coverage of 2023 World Cup. Wonderful insight into strategy, current drama, and race details.
  • Cold Snap5
    Rachel and Sophie episode
    Bring these two back more often! They were great…great insights into the women’s field and racing!
  • Lexmark_setup
    Best way to understand FIS cross country
    I watch the US cross country skiers on streaming services every week that provide ABSOLUTELY zero context on the race strategies, drama, individual stories, etc. Listening to this podcast after each race completely changes my view of the race I just watched. It’s amazing all the things that are totally invisible on the streaming services. This podcast is not afraid to get technical and does not shy away from any topic in the sport. Very relaxed and honest conversations.
  • LaramieKnowitall
    I laughed. I cried. Then I laughed again.
    Super sweary take on all things Nordic. Devon is consistently hilarious. Good insights into World Cup cross country skiing and skiers.
  • goodonya21
    Insider look
    Devon, is there any way you can get a clearer internet connection when recording the show? I love to listen to your commentary but your voice cuts out often. Your enthusiasm makes for compelling listening. Thanks

    Rosie episode
    Pleas be more concise when asking your guests questions. Use 1 sentence to frame your question instead of a paragraph.
  • Eric Auten
    Devon Kershaw
    Insightful coverage of a wide range of World Cup topics.
  • MarlonFSwanger
    Favorite podcast on any topic
    This pod is great for fans, and Devon and their guests’ comments on tactics and technique have been great learning for my high-school-racing son. But it’s not just a great cross-country ski podcast. I follow many on many subjects, and Devon, with help from Jason, is consistently funny, literate in all kinds of subjects he somehow makes relevant, and his excitement is infectious. Seldom do I finish a podcast in such a great mood. My son and I listen to the best ones more than once. I can’t recommend this enough.

    Fascinating
    Where has this podcast been all my life? I love it!
  • zoicks
    Pulls no punches
    If you like cross country skiing, you have to listen to this insiders guide to the World Cup. Filled with insight and information “behind the ropes”, Devon uses his 16 years of WC experience and close connections with the Norwegian and North American teams to lend color and depth to the latest race results. Plus Devon is fearless and unsparing. He’ll gore any sacred cow that needs it. Not to be missed!
  • ReviewersUnitedAFC

    Been looking for A podcast recap program like this in English for a long time. Nice to have someone on the ground reporting and good substantive content. Thanks.
