  • The best way to catch up on skating news

    Daphne, Gina, and Matteo do an excellent job recapping all the news and competitions of each week during the figure skating season. I always know I will be informed and up to date after listening each week! Before I started listening to TWIS, I felt like I would miss news and updates if I wasn’t constantly checking social media, but now I have TWIS to rely on! In addition to the weekly episodes, they do great interviews with folks from across the skating world in a variety of disciplines and rol... more

    I normally enjoy this podcast but recently there is a new host, Melanie the photographer who talks way too slow with lots of pauses. Feels like this messes up the cadence with the regular hosts and makes the podcast hard to listen to…..

  • Please Rethink Your Ads!!! Really brings down the quality of the episodes!

    I absolute adore the team behind this podcast and have so much respect for their work. I fully support the idea of them being compensated/sponsored for the tremendous effort put into this podcast.

    But the ads in the episodes are horribly disrupting. There isn’t even an announcement for an ad break. It just pops in mid-sentence and worse yet, plays at 2-3 times the volume of the podcast. I’ve jumped while driving and listening due to the sudden burst of volume. Plus the ad content is 0% rel... more

  • Not great.

    Hosts are not the most eloquent nor the most knowledgeable. But they mean well…

  • Best podcast of 2023

    I only began listening to This Week in Skating this year, and I’ve since become a devotee. Gina and Daphne are magnificent guides to the complex disciplines that comprise the world of figure skating. They are exceedingly knowledgeable, winsome, and generous. I’ve never heard co-hosts on a podcast that are so fiersomeky together. They’re on my podium every week — thank you G and D !!!!
