| 0:00.0 | You are listening to Miss Apex Podcast. We live F1. |
| 0:10.2 | Welcome to Miss Apex Podcast. I'm your host, Richard Reddy, but my friends call me Spaners. |
| 0:17.6 | So, let's be friends. Today, we are recording two shows. So you're listening to part one of our |
| 0:23.3 | double record where we're going to be talking about the things we observed from Drive to Survive |
| 0:28.7 | and did anything. Did we learn anything? Did we change our minds about anything? And what stories |
| 0:33.7 | that came out of it do we feel like we want to discuss? So that's going to be about a 40 |
| 0:38.5 | minute recording. And then we're going to complete our teammate driver battle predictions. So |
| 0:44.7 | joining me in my house is Matt two rumpets. Hello, Matt. Hey, there's banners. I love that you've |
| 0:52.4 | tried to kill me with the activities over the past 72 hours, but ha! I have survived yet again. |
| 0:57.9 | You survived the carting, the golf, the mini golf, the tennis, and we're all ready to go. |

| 1:18.4 | binged watch drive to survive. Okay, Alex, you're probably the most the grizzled, I would say |
| 1:24.5 | DTS denier. How did you find binge watching season eight of Drive to |
| 1:29.3 | So to be honest, the last few years of DTS I've not enjoyed. I don't think I finished last season, |
| 1:35.3 | but for reasons we'll talk about soon, I actually really enjoyed this one. I think this is one of the |
| 1:40.4 | best ones since like the first one. So people are going to accuse me of changing my tune because of certain contractual obligations. |
| 1:47.7 | But I actually agree with you almost immediately. |
| 1:50.6 | I was like, oh, it feels like they've moved more towards people who were watching the season |
| 1:57.0 | and would like to know more about that season than entirely creating a narrative for people |
| 2:01.9 | who've never watched F1 before. Now, that doesn't let it off the hook completely. It still was at |
| 2:08.7 | times a, not a complete work of fiction, but some of those interviews were very clearly so staged. And |
