Sigma Sports Unplugged with Matt Stephens

Matt Stephens chats to one of his best friends and colleagues, Rebecca Charlton, about the cancer diagnosis that led to the toughest year of her life. By approaching her treatments the same way she approaches cycling, Rebecca went all in with full commitment - the only way she knows how. She credits her cyclist mindset and ability to tolerate suffering for her ongoing recovery, and commends the cycling community for their ability to pop up just about anywhere, to chat about Matt Stephens’ balls.

Technically yet again it’s not a rest day; the Giro d’Italia 2026 has just been won. As the dust settles on Rome, Matt Stephens reflects on the final week of racing from behind the scenes at the Breakaway studio for TNT Sports / HBO Max Studio. Expect opinions, views and points of view throughout the final six stages, before Matt shares his thoughts on this year’s Giro on the whole, and looks forward to the prospect of a mouthwatering Tour de France showdown between a rampant Jonas Vingegaard and perhaps the only man who can beat him; Tadej Pogacar.

It's a rest day at the Giro d’Italia, so Matt Stephens is back with another podcast reflecting on the previous week of racing, as well as all the peculiar goings-on in his life in the Breakaway studio for TNT Sports / HBO Max Studio. The past week has seen every type of race stage with an individual time trial, some rolling stages, a proper GC mountain stage, and a much-debated Milanese city circuit to finish the week. You can expect expert opinions, live finish line reactions, along with equally pertinent reviews of vitamin volcanoes and soggy chips!

Matt Stephens is back on Breakaway duty for another week of racing from the TNT Sports / HBO Max Studio, and for the first time ever at an external broadcast featuring a live studio audience at the Sigma Sports store in Hampton Wick. It wouldn’t be Matt Stephens without some unpredictable tangents, and this week’s spanner in the works comes in the shape of a fractured Metatarsal. Brave Matt soldiers on to tell us about Thai curries, Toblerones, the merits of automatic vehicles while sporting an injured left foot, and of course a full week of action packed Grand Tour racing!
