Episode 718: The Maddi Interview!
2023-02-16
In this episode Rich and Jim had the pleasure of talking to Maddie Patterson (nee Scordia) about MotoGP. Maddi is a journalist working in the MotoGP paddock and gave us some incredible insight into the inner workings of the sport we love. We talk about the product, the riders personalities, sprint races, and many other topics. Maddi was gracious enough to give us over 90 minutes of her time and we can't thank her enough. Jim wants to mention that Maddi was in the hotel lobby on dodgy WiFi and there are some points where she breaks up for a second or two. Also there is some background noise that can be heard as well. So stop reading and start listening! Socials: Maddi: @Maddi_Paddy on Twitter Richard: @RichardJowitt on Twitter and Instagram Jim: @MotoRGV on Twitter and Instagram
