Grand Prix Rejects

A round of applause please! The hard work of kostas22, ADx_wales, TimmyB and shinji has finally borne fruit! Seriously, these guys deserve an honorary reject award - for bravery if nothing else.

The F1 Rejects podcast version 2.0, the Bahstralaysian edition, has now been uploaded. Hear these brave souls discuss the latest F1 news, and the Bahrain, Australian and Malaysian GPs. As well as inane sections recorded by yours truly, including another GMIF1P. Click your way to the podcast page from the front page of the site, or alternatively at this link: http://www.f1rejects.com/podcasts/index.html

The file is larger than usual at around 24MB. The file came to me at 48MB but I've reduced the sound quality slightly for ease of upload/download. Hope you don't mind. If you want the full-blown 48MB version, you can get it here:

Hope you enjoy it, and drop the guys a line to show your appreciation!

That was totally and utterly rejectful... in a good way

I kept waiting for TimmyB to pop out as Enoch, because it didn't sound exactly like him.

ADX-- It's pronounced "drive", not "dra-eef".

Kostas + Skype --> Kostamus Prime.

I'm glad I didn't have to represent America during the USF1 discussion.

If you record in monaural, you shouldn't have that problem next time.

Now's probably a good moment to give a shout out to Wizzie. He turned up on time and primed to two recording sessions and never actually made it onto the podcast for various reasons. At least the rest of us get some sort of reward (if you can call it that ) for the efforts we put in.

Congratulations to 'Kostamus Prime' and the 'English Maestro' for your achievement.

We did it guys!

Suggest we make a "Deleted scenes" via links in here. Thus Wizzies efforts can get broadcast.

Next time you use it, not next time you record a podcast.

Sounds like Kostas22 and ADx_Wales were competing in the "Of course" World Championship, I counted 25 "Of course" uses in the news section alone!

We thought it was about time 'for sure' was replaced by something a little less annoying...

Couldn't get it to download via iTunes so have downloaded direct from the F1 Rejects website onto my laptop then transferring to iTunes library. Looking forward to listening to it. Anybody else had this problem or is it just me?


(And thank goodness this isn't one of my first posts otherwise I would worry I wass sounding like a spambot. Or maybe I am?!?!?!)

Wow. Just wow. I think my personal highlight was the magic roundabout music...

Of Course, or for sure.

But which is better???

Theres only one way to find out....

Speaking of repeated two word sayings, watching the first round of the British Rallycross championship (where my eureka moment happened in understanding why they're called BMW Sauber Ferrari), Martin Haven and Barry Lee could not help saying "Exactly right" when answering the other guy's question or suggestion.

Hrmmm,... the podcast RSS feed didn't update with this new podcast.

This podcast exceeded my expectations and made me wish that I had a Welsh accent.

I also found it quite enjoyable. Of course, having been without a podcast since the preseason, maybe that was the cause.

Brilliant! Thanks a lot guys, I really enjoyed the faux-momentous introduction and the truly superb melange of accents you managed to find.

Just finished listening to it, the sound quality was a little poor but the content was great well done to all involved! Looking forward to the next one.

He's just ironic...or perhaps frustrated with something...

Yes being serious, content wise the quality was good, just the sound quality that was rejectful.

So much work for him though. That's what he was getting at.

Divide and conquer.

I always have this problem when a new podcast is posted. iTunes doesn't recognize it for a couple of days. After about two or three days, I'm able to download it through iTunes without any issues.

There's two of those in that picture.

First, I haven't quite listened to it yet - but thanks in advance. I am absolutely sure it'll be, to quote Clarckson, sweeeeeet.

In another issue, has anyone had any problems downloading it? My podcast receiver, which has always picked up F1Rejects perfectly well, still hasn't caught wind it has been uploaded. Manually downloading the beauty right now.

i would have done it...would have gotten chewed out because i only started following formula 1 at the start of last year...but i still would have done it.
The "no team gets in option" will probably end up getting used now that Lola has pulled the plug, good call you guys.
Also a big "thank you" guys for keeping this site alive, it has been extremely helpful in getting me up to speed on the sport.

Of course I would have done it as well, but it's just one of those discussions that is unpleasant. People automatically assume that since the team took the name of the country, it's automatically representative of the nation as a whole.

The only thing it did was set F1 back in the United States approximately 10 to 15 years.

I've had exactly the same problem, and did exactly the same thing. Listened to it last night and really appreciated the effort. Also loved the addition of the outtakes at the end! And did somebody mention 24 TEAMS ??? (I'm looking at you, shinji, a.k.a. Ed!).

Oh, and one more thing - disappointed not to hear to reference to the Canberra Milk Kid on the podcast!

dr-baker wrote:Oh, and one more thing - disappointed not to hear to reference to the Canberra Milk Kid on the podcast!

I thought about it but decided to save that one for eytl... even thought it will be old news by then!

it certainly kept me interested in my computer dungeon in uni here, good first try. I need another one cause i'm about to slip in to an irreprible coma. Having similar feelings to the bahrain gp.

dr-baker wrote:Oh, and one more thing - disappointed not to hear to reference to the Canberra Milk Kid on the podcast!

I wanted to put it as the intro music for the Aussie GP bit!!!!

But nooooo, Adrian had to over-rule that and pick Manic bloody Street Preachers instead!!
