Was that the greatest opening lap in F1 history? We react to Lando Norris’s Brazilian Grand Prix victory, Hamilton’s sensational start and Verstappen’s charge from the back to second. From frustrating rain delays to tyre strategy, this Formula 1 weekend gave us plenty to argue about. Brazil delivers the drama that makes sports impossible to switch off.

Now streaming on Netflix, Air Force One is one of those movies I both love and hate, ridiculously corny like a comedy in places, but also incredibly tense, well-paced and ridiculously entertaining. Starring Harrison Ford, Gary Oldman and Glenn Close, this 1997 thriller proves why sharp editing, strong performances and a brilliantly controlled pace can carry even the most over-the-top Hollywood premise. We also get into the behind-the-scenes trivia, the Oscar nominations for editing and sound, and why this is still one of those movies you can throw on and enjoy from start to finish.

What really went wrong for George Russell in 2026? We go behind the scenes of his difficult F1 season, the technical problems, the pressure of watching team mate Kimi Antonelli become the youngest Formula One world champion, and the raw driver psychology that fans rarely get to see.

We also remember 1980 world champion Alan Jones, the hard-edged Australian who helped turn Williams into one of the defining teams in the sport, following his death at the age of 80.

And finally, we look ahead to the Brazilian Grand Prix at Interlagos and what could still be a huge weekend for Mercedes, Ferrari, Russell, Hamilton and the new champion Antonelli. If you love F1, the psychology behind elite sport, this episode goes far beyond the headline results.

We are live streaming the qualifying and Grand Prix this weekend on YouTube.

Timetable:

Qualifying: 7th November - 5.55pm - 7.00pm

Grand Prix: 8th November - 4.55pm - 7.00pm

I got kicked out of a club in about three minutes, no warning, no explanation, no chance to defend myself.

In this episode, I break down what happened, but more importantly, the psychology behind it: rejection, cliques, projection, power plays, weak leadership, and what happens when one side of a story gets believed without the other side ever being heard.

We talk about why rejection can completely scramble your head, why people sometimes project their own behaviour onto others, and how ''leaders'' can lose respect when they react too quickly instead of actually finding out what happened.

This isn’t just about me. It’s about anybody who has ever been pushed out, blamed, misunderstood, or left wondering, “What did I actually do?”

If you’ve ever been the outsider in a group, this one is for you.

Max Verstappen takes a brilliant victory in Mexico, but the biggest story of the weekend belongs to Kimi Antonelli, who finishes third and becomes the youngest Formula 1 World Champion in history. Lewis Hamilton comes home second after starting from pole, while a chaotic race featuring penalties, a red flag and late drama keeps the result alive right to the end.

We break down Verstappen’s latest F1 win, Antonelli completing an extraordinary championship season, Ferrari’s performance with Hamilton and Leclerc, and all the major talking points from Mexico City. One of the biggest sports stories of the year is now official, Kimi Antonelli is World Champion at just 20 years old.

This week we step away from movies and into one of Netflix’s most addictive series: Narcos, the brutal true story drama following Pablo Escobar, the Medellín cartel and the people trying to bring them down. Wagner Moura is extraordinary as Escobar, Pedro Pascal brings a completely different energy as Javier Peña, and the mix of real archival footage with dramatic recreation makes the whole thing feel uncomfortably real.

We also get into the flaws, the violence can occasionally feel excessive, and because so much of the dialogue is in Spanish with English subtitles, look away at your phone for ten seconds and you’ll probably be rewinding. But with incredible performances, fascinating behind the scenes trivia and a true story so outrageous it often feels fictional, Narcos is absolutely worth the commitment.

If you’re looking for something to binge through the dark November evenings, put the phone down, get Netflix on and give this one a proper chance.

Saturday, 31 October — Qualifying: Live from 8:55 p.m. UK/Ireland time
Sunday, 1 November — Mexico City Grand Prix: Live from 7:55 p.m. UK/Ireland time

Kimi Antonelli arrives in Mexico on the verge of history, needing only a top-nine finish to become the youngest Formula 1 World Champion ever. We break down exactly what he needs to do, whether Russell or Hamilton can still delay the celebrations, and why managing the race may be more important than chasing another win.

There’s plenty more in this F1 preview too: Max Verstappen and Red Bull arrive in serious form, Red Bull and McLaren are level in the Teams’ standings, and Sergio Pérez celebrates his incredible 300th Grand Prix start in front of his home crowd. Add Mexico City’s extreme altitude, thin air, cooling problems and huge run into Turn 1, and this could be one of the biggest sports weekends of the season.

This week on the dating podcast, I’m trying to solve one of the strangest phrases I’ve seen on a dating profile: “Short term… but long term okay.” What does that actually mean? Are we dating, hooking up, or applying for a temporary position with the possibility of permanent employment?

We get into the madness of modern dating language, mixed intentions, casual relationships, commitment, and why dating apps are starting to feel less like romance and more like a bloody job interview. I genuinely don’t have the answer on this one, so I’m throwing it out to you: what does “short term, long term okay” actually mean?
