SANTA ROSA, Calif. (BRAIN) — Selene Yeager, better known as "the Fit Chick" from Bicycling magazine, has joined Patrick Brady of Red Kite Prayer as co-host of the Paceline Podcast. Now in its third year, the Paceline was originally launched by Brady with Elden Nelson of Fat Cyclist and Red Kite Prayer contributor Michael Hotten. Brady calls it "a deep dive into the cycling lifestyle."
"I loved the chemistry of our show, but when the opportunity came to make a change I immediately contacted Selene," Brady said. "I'm a huge fan of hers and after all the noise I've made about how cycling needs to be more diverse and inclusive, I figured this was a chance to help demonstrate that by giving Selene yet another platform from which to share her experience and wisdom."
Yeager said, "It was serendipity, really. I had been kicking around the idea of doing a podcast for the past year and had started researching the medium in earnest when Patrick came knocking. I've always enjoyed his work and feel like we're on the same wavelength and conversation flows naturally. I'm proud of the shows we've put together so far, especially the Dirty Kanza episodes. I'm excited to see where we can take the podcast moving forward."
Brady has launched another podcast, called the Pull. The Pull focuses on one-on-one interviews about craft. "Think of it as Terry Gross for cyclists," he said. Six episodes in, interview subjects have included framebuilder Richard Sachs, CSG's Damon Rinard and Skratch Labs founder Allen Lim.
You can find both podcasts on RideKitePrayer.com, iTunes and other outlets like Google Music.
