What Were Testers Looking for in Pogačar’s Blood? With Journalist and author James Witts
03/08/2026 | 53minAt 2:00 a.m., anti-doping testers knocked on Jonas Vingegaard’s hotel door during the Tour de France. Three hours later, Tadej Pogačar was woken for the same test. But what exactly were they looking for? Journalist and author James Witts joins the podcast to explain how modern drug testing works, why athletes can be tested at any hour, and what the history of doping tells us about the constant battle to keep sport clean.

Sophie Conroy, nutritionist for Tudor Pro Cycling, explains the common mistake amateurs make with when they eat around training. She shares how professional riders approach nutrition on the bike, off the bike and immediately after a session, with practical insights that could change how you fuel, recover and perform.

ASO deserves enormous credit for reimagining the finale, using the Montmartre circuit to create genuine tension, spectacular crowds and an unpredictable race. However, the decision to freeze the general classification with roughly 41 kilometres remaining effectively created an artificial “finish line” long before the Champs-Élysées. In this episode, Anthony unpacks the drama, the spectacle and whether cycling’s biggest race can truly claim to be racing all the way to the finish.
