The Pad-Hoc

Tales of life on the road from three Formula 1 journalists (loose term) and broadcasters (very loose term), Lawrence Barretto, Chris Medland and Nate Saunders

🎙️What an episode without Nate sounds like🎙️

Someone's missing, but that isn't going to stop Lawrence and Chris from catching up on how it's impossible to do your job if you can't speak, and how FIA technical delegate Jo Bauer can distract you👇

🎙️Two Gladiators, but who's the Emperor?🎙️

A brief recollection of Nate annoying people, and then some views on F1's new season launch. Lawrence is being harsh, and Chris might be off to a film premiere with the King, or the Ferrari drivers, or both 👇

🎙️We’re talking about the DNA of The Pad-Hoc now🎙️

Nothing massive to discuss so we just had a completely mundane catch-up. Chris reminds Nate about the career of Alfonso Celis Jr, Lawrence defends Monaco, and there's a lot of track running chat 👇

🎙️No jokes, just Danny Ric🎙️

OK there are some jokes, but this is dangerously close to being a serious episode. Lawrence, Nate and Chris discuss the handling of Daniel Ricciardo's replacement by Liam Lawson, and how weird the Singapore weekend was 👇

Also, if you're new to the pod (or just forgot we existed given how random our episode schedule is) the whole show is available here: https://t.co/8ra4g6foSH

🎙️What an MTC celebration looks like🎙️

Lawrence has been at McLaren all morning but it doesn't help his mood with Nate's joke, while Chris explains how unpredictable the Sainz-to-Williams situation was, and some news breaks at the end of the show 👇

🎙️Hans Zimmer doesn't have a spare shirt🎙️

After five races, we're back. And Lawrence is the one with most of the good stories. Find out how he caused Hans Zimmer to ruin a shirt, some F1 film "insight", a live 60-second review AND a Padhocbuster 👇

We’re alive! (Honest. Working on it)

Ran into 2/3rd of @ThePadHoc at the #HungarianGP!

[The Pad-Hoc @ThePadHoc]

🎙️An actual debate about Monaco🎙️

In a strange turn of events, there's a variety of opinions on Monaco for a spell, some very privileged stories and another chance for Nate to rub the Padel win in Chris's face. Plus another Padhocbuster to tackle 👇

🎙️Love me tender🎙️

Laurence, Nate and Chris find themselves on a tender in the Monaco harbour at the end of the grand prix weekend and spot a little window for the shortest episode they've ever done. But there's still time for a good joke 👇

A small selection of Nate’s story

[The Pad-Hoc @ThePadHoc]

🎙️When Ed Sheeran met Nate in Miami🎙️

Miami was a fun race anyway but Nate had the weekend of his life when some guy called @edsheeran invited him to watch an Ipswich Town football match with him. This is a story that might never be topped 👇

[The Pad-Hoc @ThePadHoc]

@RobJVale DM us the answer and we might all be able to have a guess on a future episode!

[The Pad-Hoc @ThePadHoc]

Wait... Who wrote this?! Sorry @lawrobarretto 😬

[The Pad-Hoc @ThePadHoc]

🎙️Who did the British Embassy call on in China?🎙️

Laurence is back from China (as in, literally just back) and fighting the jet lag so is very giggly. Nate's worried F1 might be dying, and Chris has the latest PadHocBuster 👇

🎙️Big apologies from the Big Boss🎙️

Work, travel, loads of other excuses, and we headed to Australia without an episode. But now we're back from Japan and Nate has a new nickname, while Lawrence doesn't understand the greatest game on podcasts 👇
