After recording this conversation, Lionel Sanders decided it should be reserved for patrons only because he didn't want to to drum up controversy before the Ironman World Championship. Today, he changed his mind. In this episode he addressed the 2015 Kona swim controversy, drafting at 70.3 worlds, haters, Slowtwitchers, and whether or not his performances are believable.
