Next week, the convicted mushroom killer will be forced to sit through a two-day plea hearing as the families of her victims deliver powerful impact statements. Will Erin Patterson meet their gaze, or will she retreat behind tissues and her belief that she's the true victim in all this?We'll look at what's ahead in court: how Simon Patterson may confront his estranged wife, Erin.Plus the dignity shown so far by the Patterson and Wilkinson families, and whether Erin will risk a glare or a breakdown. We'll also compare this approach to some of the most striking victim impact statements from other notorious cases—including the blistering words delivered to Bryan Kohberger by Kaylee Goncalves' sister.The sentencing hearing is about a month after a jury found Erin guilty of three murders and one attempted murder for her infamous beef Wellington lunch. With life in prison on the table—and whispers of an appeal already circling—this could be one of the most emotional chapters yet in Australia's most gripping true crime case.Thank you so much for listening. I have a few thank you's, firstly to the wonderful listeners on Reddit, especially the one who said I was like a nosy neighbour - that is exactly how I like to be perceived. Because I know Erin a bit, but I can talk over the back fence about this for hours.Thank you so much to everyone who has contributed to my trip to Melbourne. I will be there with bells on.

Simon Patterson, Val Khorounzhiy and Matt Beer debate what might be Bagnaia's most painful 2025 low so far on The Race MotoGP Podcast.As Bagnaia fell back, at least Alex Marquez was there to take the fight to Marc - but how hard was he really fighting? The siblings' (conspicuously gentle?) approach to racing each other is another hot topic after the Italian Grand Prix, as is stewarding after yet another Franco Morbidelli incident.We also tackle plenty of questions from The Race Members' Club on topics including Yamaha and Honda's awful weekends, the power balance between Maverick Vinales and Pedro Acosta at KTM, and where Fabio Di Giannantonio's sudden performance came from.Want more MotoGP podcast content?

It's finally happening: after so many years of rumour and flirtation, the World Superbike Championship's breakout superstar Toprak Razgatlioglu is coming to MotoGP in 2026.And the man who once only wanted to go to MotoGP on a factory bike, and whose Yamaha MotoGP bridge looked burned by two bad tests and a fractious aftermath, is joining the MotoGP grid… with Yamaha's satellite team Pramac.Matt Beer wakes Simon Patterson from his well-deserved post Silverstone-TT-Aragon nap to discuss why Razgatlioglu is finally making the leap and assess how he might fare and how his first season should be judged.We also explain for anyone who hasn't followed World Superbikes why Razgatlioglu is such a coup for MotoGP, and consider the impact of his exit on WSBK - especially with his 2025 title rival Nicolo Bulega also now being lined up for a MotoGP future too.Want more MotoGP podcast content?

Simon Patterson, Val Khorounzhiy and Matt Beer ponder the key to Bagnaia's turnaround and how significant it might actually be.Yamaha's tumble backwards, KTM's surge forwards and Aprilia's latest rider intrigue also feature, there's a mild argument between the Joan Mir Fan Club and Johann Zarco Fan Club arms of the podcast panel and Simon has a downbeat rant that comes from a place of genuine love for MotoGP.Want more MotoGP podcast content?

Jorge Martin has officially communicated to the world that he expects to be a free agent at the end of the 2025 MotoGP season thanks to a clause in his two-year deal with Aprilia.Though he has not officially committed to riding for someone else - and Aprilia, which had just won at Silverstone, has not corroborated his status for 2026 - it marks a massive moment for both rider and team, with Honda looming in the background as an interested party.Val Khorounzhiy is joined by an Isle of Man TT-based Simon Patterson to go through Martin's statement and discuss where the parties go from here.They also offer injury updates on Ai Ogura and Luca Marini, the latter hurt considerably in a Suzuka 8 Hours testing crash - in what is a crucial contract year for the Italian.Want more MotoGP podcast content?

Why did so many other riders who had the chance to match Zarco's strategy choose not to?Did the new rules prompted by Marquez's dash off the Austin grid work on their first appearance and was this actually a great race (Matt thinks so and Val sort of agrees) or a rubbish and processional non-spectacle? (Simon thinks so).Want more MotoGP podcast content? Sign up to our motorbike-only Riders tier on Patreon for our 2015 revisited series, ad-free listening and more.

Is Fabio Quartararo the first truly elite MotoGP rider to be trapped in the series' midfield for as long as he has been?Host Valentin Khorounzhiy discusses this with Simon Patterson on the latest edition of The Race MotoGP Podcast, ahead of Quartararo's home race at Le Mans that comes on the heels of a best-in-years weekend at Jerez.The show also delves into Quartararo's decision to stay put at Yamaha for 2025, the chances of him doing so again in 2027 - and the question of whether his lack of championship opportunities as he enters his theoretical prime as a rider is weighing on him.Finally, Val and Simon talk about the rest of Yamaha's line-up, discussing whether Jack Miller should count on a 2026 extension, whether Alex Rins's disappointing-so-far Yamaha tenure is likely to improve and whether it would make sense for Yamaha to try to bring in Toprak Razgatlioglu.Want more MotoGP podcast content?
