In episode 112, I chat with the absolute A1 huma, Kim Cadzow. In just her second year on the WWT, Kim has already amassed amazing results, such as 6th in LBL, 10th on GC at the Vuelta, and 8th on GC at Suisse. Not only is Kim Cadzow a huge talent, but she is also an awesome chat!
Kim and I discussed EF’s new co-sponsor, Oatly, and what it’s like to be on the EF team. We laugh about the weird gifts the team receives and chat about New Zealand and what Kim enjoys most about her hometown.

We learn more about Antonia’s road to the World Tour, her hometown and hobbies, and how ski-mountaineering played a big part in her development.

In episode 107, I catch up with the loveable sprinter Jensen Plowright from Alpecin–Deceuninck. We catch up after a long time between drinks, and the result is very entertaining. We discuss the Giro and whether Caleb Ewan will get back to the top step this month, and Jensen explains the stresses of hectic sprint stages. We chat a bit about tech and the end-of-year China races, and I throw Jensen a couple of “would you rather" that I know will have you all in stitches. Enjoy.

Jai and I catch up on what has been happening in his life this year, including his new contract extension with Bora-Hansgrohe. We discuss the major factors Jai considered during the negotiations and the importance of being able to race for his own results.
We discuss the rumours of Boxing Day Papas being under threat and hear the big man’s opinion on his favourite race of the year. We finish up with a few cracking stories, a random U23 World Time Trial jersey and Jai’s 2011 recount of asking for Dave McKenzie’s signature at the Tour de France.

In episode 105, I catch up with Giro stage winner, SBS commentator and my good mate Dave McKenzie to discuss some hot topics ahead of this year’s Giro d’Italia.
Macca and I discuss the “dominance vs. entertainment” theme referring to Pogacar’s likely sweep of the Giro GC and speculate about Sam Welsford’s surprising exclusion from the Bora Hansgrohe team. We preview some of the exciting teams and riders to keep an eye on, and finally, I squeeze the classic story from Macca’s epic solo giro stage win from the glory days.
