So the people who have criticism are "nasty" internet people. WB is actually doing a terrific job, she can't explain exactly what they are doing great because we are not even smart enough to understand. She doesn't know ANYTHING about the sport but she will show us all what we are missing. Keep up the fake positivity while the sport is going in a completely negative direction for the actual fans. She is completely self absorbed, if this is DH future, it is dead.
Great watch, she's on the list of people you'd like to have a drink with now 😅 Can't blame her for the wrong things WBD are doing, but doing a good job of tough boots to fill.
Oh man, loved this. Super cool to have a different angle. She's so charismatic and easy listening. Love that she's a bit nerdy and likes it. Love the way she gets the whole change from Rob and how people feel with it but they're out to do the best they can. It was the interview I didn't know I needed. Nice work both!
Great interview with Kate. She is perfect and provides a balanced commentating perspective for all those new to watching DH. in the same way as Natalie Pinkham is for F1. Kate's energy and professionalism is just awesome and well done to the Downtime team for showing any perspective. Credit to you all.
Diclaimer: I am a very tough critic and I am an XC racer. Kate im obsessed. You are the best part of the WB take over. Im am so impressed with how fast you became up to speed! (No pun intended). I have been following MTB since the old days, have faith , you are doing such a great job, I laugh just as much as I did with Rob. Rob is one of a kind and no one can replace him, but I am happy to have you become part of the MTB family. You are so talented and a natural behind the camera not discounting your years of experience. You have a Parker Posey vibe and you are f’ing dope! Also dont feel bad about the Nina Hoffman slip up, one time Mexico won the XCC and Rob said on air no one can interview him because no one speaks Mexican. Mexican is not a language and it came off insanely derogatory. He didnt mean it that way it was a mistake. These things will happen.
Reckon by the time year 8 of Warner Bros doing the broadcasts comes around Kate will be intrinsic in a similar way to Rob if she doesn’t outgrow the sport.
She seems like such a nice person. It's unfortunate that she is the face of an amateur organisation that seemed intent on destroying the sport. But I feel like she is doing the best she can.
You are not wrong. Journalism is the skill. It is about finding the story. All the journalists interviewing the riders on Redbull before and after the races during the podium werent riders and were new to the sport but they did a great job. I am not a fan of the WB take over, but Kate and Josh are the silver lining. I prefer Ric in Enduro, he isnt lead commentator material but he is much better than Matt Payne from Flo bike, he actually ruined world champs Even Pinkbike and many other brands said so. Josh Carlson is definitely lead commentator material.

What a brilliant message you sweetheart! Thank you for listening, for keeping an open mind and for welcoming me into the MTB family, I love it here 🤍🤍

The fact that she got this gig? It obviously doesn't take much in the way of knowledge about the sport.
