Summary
The crew digs into pro prize-money controversies after a hot take from another podcast, arguing why deeper payouts and regional development races matter for the sport’s future. Plus updates from Jackson, Lisa and Garrick on injuries, recent race results (including a 10K recap), and why broadcasts — and sponsorships — should do more for mid-pack pros.
