What a wonderfully kind and compassionate interview with Pip. Thank you Dee, you lifted all of our spirits. Another brilliant show with you at the helm.

[@lesshort2049]

Thanks Dee. Excellent show as usual. Conrad is a legend.

[@ColinMcInnes-i5n]

Great show Dee with a brilliant studio guest and terrific chats with some of our heroes especially Pip. What a lady!! After her horrible dismasting she still has the capability to smile and laugh. I think she will be very impressed by her welcome in Australia. 👏

Well done Dee. You’re an excellent presenter and bring out the human side of this extraordinary sport, undertaken by the rarest of exceptional human beings.

I think it's time to rethink the format for this race. There is obviously three classes that are racing in it. The foilers, the non foilers, and the Corinthians. It's time to give the first to Finnish in each class their due.

Makes total sense, at least foil vs non-foil rankings.

[@escope1959]

I absolutely love this show and all the special guests

[@tiagdvideo]

Great show as always Dee And excellent to see Conrad and hear from Pip, Sam G, Yoann and Romain

[@jonathanlewis1352]

Well done, again. The show is like a delicious ice cream and you keep changing the mix ins. Always a tasty treat!

[@doughayes9811]

Excellent Live today. Warm and insightful chats with Pip and Sam G. Conrad made a great guest. In tone and contribution - must get him back. Top job Dee! PS loved the cheers, from the studio team, for Sam G.

18:17 You must have absolute trust and confidence in your boat to be able to sleep when it's hammering along like this!

[@patrickweissel5241]

Thanks for sharing 🤙🏼

[@LukasvonSpreter]

Great job, Sam!!

[@klaudiaskyes2922]

For such a tough race the boats are a bit flimsy n'est ce pas?

[@harryspedding7456]

If you build the boats heavy you lose the Race, it is about finding the sweet spot between strong and fast. The same as any technical sport eg Dakar Rally.

[@Thierry-t3i]

Please keep going the conversation with Pip as long as she’s on her boat. It’s too early to let her leave the race !

[@politicsoutwest]

Where did Andi Robertson go? He seems to have recently disappeared from the comnentary?😮

[@harryspedding7456]

He is having a week at home before covering the Christmas period.

[@zoepaulastrassfield2664]

Alexia tomorrow? We’re really getting spoiled this edition!
