Polite society considers swearing to be a vulgar sign of low intelligence and education, for why would one rely on rude language when blessed with a rich vocabulary? That perception, as it turns out, is full of, uh … baloney. In fact, swearing may be a sign of verbal superiority, studies have shown, and may provide other possible rewards as well.
@@insidermtb wow, that’s pretty pathetic and absolutely ludicrous but hey it’s your channel, I was hoping to check out good content but your inability to communicate decently does make it worth watching, best of luck to you
@@insidermtb um gee let me think 🤔, cuz it’s offensive, wouldn’t think that to be too hard to figure out. Hey I get swearing is used and here and there, ok but when within the first few minutes of the program you are throwing around the F word plenty, clearly you don’t know how to communicate clearly, effectively and respectably without vulgarity which in my book and others I’m sure makes your content it worth listening to when I can listen to other content about the same topic or interests with much less vocal garbage. Again it’s your channel and it appears that you are accustomed to regularly talking that way so you do you. For me, I have to much respect for myself and others to communicate like that. Period
@@GordonA-Jr You claim that I don’t communicate decently, yet you can’t even talk to me without insulting me. The person you claim I am cause of my use of vulgar language to describe subjects on a podcast is exactly what you are. None of my vulgar language is directed at you. So why are you taking it as such? Research and data have shown that people use cussing as a sign of creativity and honesty and is a universal language. www.cnn.com/2021/01/26/health/swearing-benefits-wellness/index.html I cuss, that is me, this podcast is me. 1000 other podcasts are rated PG and have no honesty or actual flavor. This isn’t that type of podcast; we are more like going to a bar with your friends and talking “real talk.” None of that politically correct talk will be on this podcast; why? You can already get that on everyone else’s podcast and Instagram accounts. This podcast will remain different, and I’m sorry if that offends you.
I’m quite surprised to hear you say that gravel isn’t doing well. Where I live in the Midwest, gravel is booming. Every gravel race in my area sells out nearly instantly or pushes up the limit of racers. The shops in my area almost exclusively sell gravel bikes. I know people who do (casually) compete in triathlons on gravel bikes because it is more efficient to only own one gravel bike instead of a tri bike that collects dust when you aren’t racing. One piece of evidence that might be considered empirical, last spring Cervélo put all their mtn bikes on a steep sale (50% off). The Cervelo gravel bikes weren’t discounted which would lead me to believe they demand for those bikes are higher.
It makes sense in places like the Midwest, where it only makes sense to get a gravel bike. It's still doing good. But on the West Coast, when it's up against other forms of riding, it's performing differently than it was during COVID. E-bikes are still king in growth.
Hey maybe use the F word less, use some class, checked out early, no need for the vulgarity that much

@@GordonA-Jr Why is the ones who don't like vulgarity that get the most offended?

Great episode!
Thank you for watching.
great episode. may want to consider the amount of profanity used, a bit distracting.
