    Love the banter!
    Long time listener since the days of HKT, a constant companion in the ol’ ear holes since the beginning, I just love the wide range of topics that are discussed. I also connect with both Davi and Olly on so many levels. I came here for the bike talk, but stayed for the rabbit holes that I find myself in every week. Appreciate it boys, always look forward to it every week!

    Great podcast
    A great mountain bike podcast that gets way off topic - and yet entertains fully. I hope it will continue after lockdown. Keep “companion” in the title.

    Most entertaining mountain bike podcast
    This podcast hits it all. It can beautifully cover everything from legit pro mountain biker interviews, to hilarious slightly bike related conversations. Would 100% recommend to and person who rides on two wheels.

    Epic mtb podcast
    Been listening to HKT for about a year now off and on. He always has interesting guests and keeps it entertaining. The lockdown podcastshe does with Olly never cease to make me bust out laughing at work with topics from having to jam your finger in the backside of a chicken to dislodge an egg to olly losing a freakin snake in his flat. Highly recommend this podcast, plus Davey said I was handsome so I got that going for me #totallynotgay

    Please learn how to interview people
    This guys gets great guests, but he does not do them justice. First off, the quality of the recording is really bad. You think after all these episodes he would have gotten a good mic. Second, he constantly talks over his guests which is SO confusing and really hard to understand what either person is saying. Lastly, he obviously does no editing. It would be so easy to clean up so of those areas that sounds really bad and improve the sound quality so we can know what the guest is saying. Good idea that just falls short. Extremely short. He’s stuck in his ways though so I doubt he’ll ever change.

    Some great content but.....
    Lots of great guests and stories but the host loves to talk about himself. Quit it, let the guests talk.

    Awesome MTB podcast with some moto sprinkled in
    Love all the content! As a weekend warrior mountain biker who grew up racing motocross and is still a huge fan of the sport I really enjoy the moto stories that get sprinkled in from time to time. Keep up the great work, I never miss an episode!

    Chill vibes, real talk
    This podcast is amazing!!!!! I love the comfortable format of the interviews while being super rich in content. I recommend this to all my riding buddies. Great perspective of the mountain bike scene. I can’t wait for the next one!

    Great listen!
    Nice to listen to while getting work done and makes for great background banter. Have only listened to a few so far, but I enjoy the behind the scenes looks at the guests' careers. Overall, a great listen!

    Excellent Podcast
    This guy kills it. He interviews such a wide range of people giving you a full scope of the mountain biking world. Down to earth, original and interesting questions, this podcast is dialed. My favorite was the one with Kathy Sessler, it was fascinating seeing the role of a team manager and her work with the Syndicate and some behind the scenes stories about ratboy and the bunch.
