Tadej Pogacar has absolutely demolished his rivals after stage 8 and it seems to be a race for second place.  In one of the most impressive rides we have seen at the Tour de France he claimed the yellow jersey and is already over 4 minutes ahead of his traditional rivals.  We recap all the action from stage 8 and look ahead to another big mountain stage on stage 9 with terrible weather again predicted for the riders.

As we finally tackle the mountains we look ahead at a big weekend ahead for the GC contenders and also look at the battle behind against the time cut.  Will the green jersey holder Mark Cavendish survive?  Olympic Gold Medalist Scott McGrory joins the panel again to discuss.

Mark Cavendish claimed his 2nd win of the Tour de France and closes in on the all time record with 32 stage victories, but did he deviate in his sprint?  Who better to discuss the finale that the Lanterne Rougue Podcast host himself, live from Europe.  We also preview the Giro Donne and who are the riders to look out for.

Tadej Pogacar made a big statement on the GC standings at Tour de France after his dominant display in the individual time trial.  We recap the winners and losers from the day and chat with the first non-European to wear the yellow jersey, Phil Anderson.

We tipped a victory on the show but it was the 'Manx Missle' Mark Cavendish who delivered at the ripe old age of 36 winning stage 4.  We look at the the reaction from the peloton to the win and are joined by his former lead out man Mark Renshaw.   We also preview the stage 5 ITT with Team Bike Exchange's Matt White and try and predict some major GC changes.

After another day of carnage at the Tour de France we ask is enough being done in regards to rider safety?  We look at all the arguments post the stage 3 carnage and see what are the potential solutions moving forward.

Stage 3 of the Tour de France is one for the pure sprinters and we assess if Mark Cavendish can pull off a fairytale victory or will Caleb Ewan embark on a Tour de France demolition of the flat stages. We also chat about Mathieu van der Poel’s dominant display on stage 2 and the emotional scenes after the finish.

It was absolute carnage on the opening stage of the Tour de France with two major crashes marring the stage.  The first crash involving a spectator which has posed the question how does the race protect the riders moving forward?  With 21 riders suffering injuries as a result time has come for action.  And John Trevorrow has all the answers!

As the Tour de France finally gets underway we look at who will be the first to take the converted maillot jaune.  Join Phil Liggett, Matt White and Scott McGrory as we chat about all the latest news from Le Tour and give our tips for the stage.
