From the Front Line
We’ve fallen slightly behind over the last couple of days, and we’re in catch-up mode at the moment, but I just wanted to put this picture up as I think it perfectly encapsulates our entire weekend.

As Heard on Radio 5 Live
Amongst all the chaos of the back-to-back races we’ve just enjoyed, Christine somehow managed to fit in an interview about Sidepodcast for BBC’s Radio Five Live. The show, called For the Love of Pod was broadcast in the UK yesterday (Easter bank holiday Monday) and discussed the world of podcasts and podcasting.
Presented by Radio 1’s Colin Murray, and featuring the likes of podcasting stalwarts Ask a Ninja and Adam Curry, the hour long show took a look at how podcasting is changing the way we consume media and how it might shape broadcasting in the future.
Christine managed to take up almost two minutes of prime BBC air time, which is a pretty impressive feat considering who else was on the bill.
Here are some of the the best bits of her interview:
Hopefully we won’t get into too much trouble for playing that. To redeem ourselves slightly, might we suggest that the full show can be downloaded as part of the Pod’s and Blogs podcast, and we encourage you to listen to the whole thing.
Broadcast Schedule for Upcoming Podcasts
As we mentioned on last week’s show, we’re creating so much F1 content these days that we’re struggling to keep track of it all. To help us out, we’ve put together a page detailing our upcoming schedule and expected release dates.
As you can probably see, during the course of a race weekend we’re planning to bring you a total of 5 audio podcasts, which is a heck of a lot of work, but we really want to provide the best Formula 1 coverage we possibly can.
Here’s a rough breakdown of how it all fits together and which bits you might be interested in.
Formula 1 TV
First up, for this season we’re producing Formula 1 videos on a weekly basis. Prior to a race weekend we’ll bring you our GP preview Inside Track and on alternate weeks F1 Rewind will take a look back at all of the recent F1 paddock gossip.
Basically it’s the same sort of things we did last year, but more of them.
Formula 1 Radio
Our audio output is increasing dramatically this year. We’re planning to create four new shows around race weekends, starting later today with a detailed look at the season opener. This will swiftly be followed up by all the free practice news tomorrow, qualifying on Saturday and a full race rundown on Sunday.
