On Tour with Sport 24 is a podcast mixing elite sport with global travel, offering listeners a fresh way to experience the world’s greatest sporting cities.
Hosted by broadcasters Rob Adcock and Emma Saunders, the show reimagines the sports podcast format by placing cities at the heart of each episode. Rather than treating location as a backdrop, the series explores how sport shapes culture, identity and everyday life, with each destination becoming a central character in the story.
The podcast takes listeners inside major international sporting events and iconic venues, while also introducing local customs, neighbourhoods and food scenes that define each city.
Episodes have already explored the likes of tennis in Melbourne and football in Los Angeles, combining athlete interviews with cultural insight and practical travel knowledge.
In the latest episode, focused on Singapore, Adcock is joined by sports broadcaster and long-term resident Edward Russell, who acts as a local guide, offering historical and cultural context.
Russell says sport in Singapore goes far beyond entertainment, playing a key role in how the city has developed and how it presents itself to the world.
The episode features contributions from Formula One presenter Jennie Gow, Olympic medallist Max Maeder, singer-songwriter Tom Grennan and a range of local sports figures.
Together, they explore Singapore from Marina Bay and the street circuit that hosts the Formula One night race, to Sentosa Golf Club and lesser-known districts such as Siglap Road and Pulau Ubin.
“Singapore is more than a race or a sporting venue,” says Jennie Gow. “It’s a global city that comes alive with sport, culture, and events, offering experiences that are unmatched anywhere else in the world.”
Listeners hear how the Formula One Singapore Grand Prix transforms the city into a large-scale event, with night racing, waterfront views and festival-style energy.
Max Maeder reflects on what it means to represent Singapore as an athlete, while Tom Grennan discusses performing at the Grand Prix and how music and sport intersect during major international events.
Alongside elite competition, the episode highlights everyday experiences, from the social rituals of hawker centres to quieter leisure spots that offer balance away from the crowds, all while remaining closely connected to the city’s sporting heartbeat.
On Tour with Sport 24 avoids polished tourism messaging, focusing instead on detailed, sensory storytelling.
Moments include descriptions of extreme heat inside an F1 cockpit, the sound and scale of street racing at speeds of three hundred and fifty kilometres per hour, and the way entire neighbourhoods adapt when roads close for major events.
The podcast is available now on all major podcast platforms and on YouTube.
