I just started listening to Caliphate by Rukmini Callimachi. She is a journalist who was trying to find out more about ISIS. So far very interesting.

Going to listen to this one next called Rabbit Hole: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/rabbit-hole/id1507423923

Yes! Never hear people talk about Caliphate but it was one of the most incredible podcasts I’ve ever listened to.
Very upsetting, very disturibing in parts (hardly surprising considering subject matter) but also an example of what journalism can and should be. The bravery demonstrated in order to get as much information on the topic as possible was inspiring. But she didn’t even look at it as being brave or doing anything impressive because she was so dedicated to the subject and learning as much as possible. It’s so important to have journalists like this today. If you want to hear an expert in her field, discover more on a very upsetting but real issue - give this a listen! Also worth saying it’s not horror all the way through, the first few episodes aren’t like that at all. It’s not about exploiting pain.

And I’m going to check out rabbit hole now . Thanks !

Louis Theroux - Grounded. All recorded during lockdown. The first one I listened to was him chatting to Helena Bonham Carter. Now listening to Miriam Margoyles. She’s very frank.
Also, a must listen - Broken - about Jeffrey Epstein. It’s an excellent American production.

Very late to the party, but has anyone listened to The Dropout about Elizabeth Holmes? I just don’t get how no one realised this was such an impossibility from someone who hadn’t studied medicine !

I LOVE Shagged Married Annoyed

Supernatural with Ashley Flowers is a good binge show

all of the Somethin’ Else investigations there’s the Iraq War; Ghislaine Maxwell which was the best one; one about a dodgy fertility doctor; the Fred and Rose West Tapes…

I also dip in and out of No Such Thing as Fish and Help I Sexted My Boss (but that’s probably because I have a crush on Jordan North lol)

Infested or invested?

invested obviously this is why i shouldn't use tattle on my phone, bloody autocorrect!
Totally different topic but I also found Finding Natascha really interesting, I felt it should have been longer though I was left with a lot of questions about the details

 

[Pretty Hate Machine]

I listen to a lot of podcasts whilst walking my dog. Nobody ever seems to mention them though.

That's not metal - reviews metal/rock music. Much improved now Beez has left.

Life in the stocks - Interviews with people in the music industry.
The Metal Hammer podcast - music reviews.

Rex Factor - history of the monarchy with quite a bit of humour.
Iain Dale's all talk - usually political interviews

Podlitical - Scottish politics
For the Many - Review of the weeks political news.
The Dave Berry breakfast show. - just funny and great for totally switching off.

Full disclosure - James O'Brien interviewing people. Am behind on these though as find him annoying sometimes!
In our time - History discussion
Moral Maze - debate on usually fairly topical discussion.
How to fail with Elizabeth day - celebs talking about times they messed up and how they recovered from it
Myths and Legends - what it says on the tin
Paul McKenna's positivity podcast - celeb interviews

Not podcasts as such, but I believe I've became addicted to Desert Island Discs, the BBC site has over 2,000 episodes available going right back to the 1950's.
