You are listening to Mist Apex Podcast. We live F1.

Welcome to Mist Apex Podcast. I'm your host Richard Reddy, but my friends call me Spanners.

So let's be friends. Welcome to the 2022 season review.

My daughter asked me just before this show said, Dad, what's your podcast about?

I thought, you know, it's about Formula One. She went, no, I know.

But what do you say about Formula One?

And it's a really good basic question. What is it we try to do?

We certainly don't report the news. We don't go blow by blow.

We don't tell you about the race you've just watched.

So I said, well, we just say what we think about what happened and what might happen next.

And she said, but why do people, why do people like that?

And I think it's a great question. I think because I like me.

A lot of people don't have real life people to talk about F1 too.

That's certainly how I got to know Matt and all the crew.

But also, I think at a basic level, we are an internet water cooler.

And we all get to sit around the water cooler and talk about and discuss the thing we love.

And then my daughter challenged me again and said, yeah, but it's only one way.

And I don't feel like it's one way because we get a lot of great interaction from you guys as well.

And I don't know if you guys feel this with mistakes.

I certainly get feedback that you do.

I have to sometimes remind myself with my favorite podcasts that I don't actually personally know
