| 0:00.0 | Welcome back to the Spin Cycle Podcast, everybody. |
| 0:09.7 | I'm Kaylee Fretz. |
| 0:10.7 | Today on the show, Double Alp Duez at the tour, kind of. |
| 0:17.1 | The Rockets signed while Poles and Jonas Vingigo might race the Giro. Let's get to it. |
| 0:31.1 | Welcome to the show, Johnny Long. What random hotel do you find yourself in this time? |
| 0:36.6 | It's a good one. I don't think if I get out the way, there's a lounge with a big glass panel that looks out of Tokyo. |

| 1:38.8 | One of the opening montages was like an AI loading screen, but in French it's presumably E.A., which makes it even |
| 1:47.1 | more hateful somehow. |
| 1:49.6 | And then, yeah, I mean, obviously we have the women's race re-announced first, which I'm sure |
