Ultimate Merch
For those viewers who are as lucky as our very own Foges, and are in the U.K. at the moment, either for the Goodwood Festival of Speed this weekend, or the British F1 Grand Prix next weekend – listen to podcast Episode #213, Le Fogeaux is doing both – the “jammy git” (London-speak cockney abuse).
Or maybe those of you who have saved lots of hard-earned for a trip to the Olympics and are heading off mid July…
Have we got a great way for you to tear up lots of cash or what? (Taking advantage of the excellent exchange rate, of course!)
McLaren and Aston Martin have just opened a Deluxe new “Official Store” at the Westfield Stratford City, in London – which is just up the road from Olympic Park.
According to the promo email I received, it’s “the single largest retail destination of McLaren Merchandise in the world”!
Called “Inside Track”, the new store sells a huge range of McLaren, Vodafone McLaren Mercedes, Formula 1, Aston Martin and Aston Martin Racing lifestyle merchandise.
You can also find products from the partners of the two brands including Hugo BOSS, Hackett, Links of London and TAG Heuer.
Items on sale range from key rings for just a few quid, to a stunning TAG Heuer McLaren MP4-12C watch, priced at almost £9,000.
There is a selection of collectable items – such as stunningly detailed 1/8 scale models of Vodafone McLaren Mercedes and Aston Martin Racing cars – and designer clothing – including Hugo Boss jackets, Hackett Aston Martin clothing, and sunglasses – as well as the full range of Vodafone McLaren Mercedes and Aston Martin Racing replica clothing.
At least when Foges reads this, he’ll now know where to go to buy some souvenir merch for his friends at Radio HOTLAP – cufflinks for me please, Fogeaux!
Radio HOTLAP is available free on the Apple iTunes Music Store, as a podcast.
Our World Headquarters are located in a rather nice part of Adelaide, where regular production takes place. Unless we're somewhere else, which is often the case.
If you ask nicely, you may be allowed to be part of our live audience. 
There comes a time, in this case after six years, with over 240 episodes recorded in 10 different countries, 300+ guests and 220 continuous hours of recording, that we feel its time to go commercial. With over 55,000 viewers, since March 2011, we get some serious exposure. So we thought a magazine to fill in the gaps would be nice. 
Our firm policy that we don't edit a show once its recorded is because it detracts from its natural conversational character in the first place. Commercial partners and alliances will have to adhere to policy and whilst we'll do the best to accommodate you and make you feel loved you have no control of how we do things. Just so we're clear on that :)
