In a country obsessed with gossip, the great and the good fear one thing more than any other - scandal.
British scandals change the course of history. They bring down governments, overthrow the rich and cause the mighty to fall. Some are about sex, others about money. In the end, they’re all about power.
But often at the heart of a scandal, there are ordinary human stories. Stories of those caugh... more

These must take so long to research, script and present and because all parts are done so well this podcast is my favourite. Well written and presented by two people who obviously get on well. Guessing one challenge must be finding good scandals. Been with it from episode 1 and still the one I look forward to new episodes dropping. Pleased to subscribe so I get them alll together. Hope it continues for a long time.
This podcast had such potential and they have chosen some good subjects but sadly the presenters can’t help themselves when it comes to their political views. At every opportunity they have a dig at Farage/Trump/Johnson whilst people like Blair, Brown and Campbell are given a free pass. The series on the death of Dr David Kelly is a prime example; the pod completely ignores some staggering inconsistencies that make it obvious that his death was highly unlikely to have been a suicide.

Alice and Matt are such a great pairing — really funny, great banter and they make even the most bizarre stories genuinely interesting. It’s really well researched but never feels heavy or boring. I’ve learned so much while laughing along. Definitely worth a listen!
So, I just finished season 17 talking about Mrs. Whitehouse, and about how she was trying to censor the media. What I find ironic, is that one of the host was shocked about trying to censor people. When, right now in the UK, the government is literally arresting people for social media posts while the UK police are ignoring actual crimes. I’m sure this podcast will have and episode talking about this scandal, but don’t hold your breath. Im sure they are fine to go and track down social media po... more
This podcast is definitely interesting. But I like it
