Just been listening to the David Walsh interviews from the competitor radio show that were done when lance to landis came out.

http://www.competitorradio.com/details.php?show=150 (part 1 of 2)

I know the interview is a blast from the past, but if you have 40 mins, this is well worth a listen. Never was there a more articulate, comprehensive interview on the entire lance affair. I must say, David Walsh is absolutely spot on.

the american interviewers are spot on, knowledgable, engaging.

worth taking a chunk out of your day to listen to it.

    There are plenty of interviews on that site, many much better than the Walsh one.

    For a more balanced persepctive on doping, see the interviews with the San Diego Union Tribune's Mark Ziegler and Michael Ashenden.

    The interviews with triathletes like Chrissie Wellington, Chris McCormack, Faris Al-Sultan, Norman Stadler, Torbjorn Sindballe and Craig Alexander are also very good.

    From cycling, there is Lemond and Vaughters, and I especially like the one with Michael Secrest, who set the world indoor 24 hour record a couple of years ago when in his 50s!

    However it was still useful to repost it so that people can be reminded it is out there, and to get the benefit of both sides of the story to make up their own minds, wouldn't you say Dave?

    Glad to see they've sussed out your 'debating' 'style' over on veloriders, Howard.
