3, 2, 1 and welcome back to Chasing the Racing. Episode 258, Chasing the Racing. And thanks to JCT Truck and Trailer Rental for your continued support. All right, boys. Catch-up pod. Catch-up pod. It's been a while there. When was the last catch-up pod? September. September last year. Hell, oh, it's a long time. Loads has happened since then. We're simply missing someone, though. September. What was it? Yeah. It's a long time.

Loads has happened since then.

We seem to be missing someone though.

Yeah, we should be...

Definitely a bit more quiet in this trailer.

Yeah, for sure.

So let's start there.

So I think everyone who listens to the pod and, you know, follows on social media, etc.

would have seen there's been a bit of an

absence of dom herbertson from the last few episodes or over the last few months etc and yeah it's

about we've been sort of talking with dom for a while and waiting to sort of say that waiting for the

right time to say to say this but ultimately Dom has took the decision

that he no longer wants to be part of the podcast in the sort of traditional sense in the way

that it's going on.

He took a little step back towards the end of the season last year, obviously got a lot going on.

And yeah, he's just before Christmas decided that it's not something you want to do anymore which is

we totally respect and totally understand he didn't want to come on and and say anything i think

he's sort of happy to just address it with with people as men they ask him so we yeah we just wanted

to take the opportunity really to it's actually seven years today of the

of the podcast as well so yeah we want to say a huge thank you to dorm for the last seven years

obviously a huge instrumental instrumental part of the podcast and it's going to be sad not to

have him here but we absolutely respect his decision and yeah ultimately you're going to be sad not to have him here, but we absolutely respect his decision.
