Welcome to Thursday! Fi’s still off with illness and Jane remains in Liverpool, so frankly, morale could do with a boost... Luckily, we’ve got just the thing. Tonight, we bring you Jane and Fi live at The Queen’s Reading Room Festival, in conversatio... more

Fi is powering through, this time with not-ill-yet producer Rosie. They chat right wing dogs, living the high life in the C-suite, and launching a radio station in a pandemic (we don't recommend it).

Liane Moriarty also joins Fi to talk about her ne... more

Fi is back, and right now, where there is Fi, there is her cough. We advise listening at a distance. Jane is still in Liverpool with her family, so Eve sits in. Fi and Eve cover uniforms, road rage, planting a placenta under a pear tree, and a geisha... more

Fi's got a cough, which she thinks she got from Eve, who thinks she got it from Jane. It's a cough train – the worst kind. Bear with us... In between coughs, Fi and Eve chat Fi's new iron, the joys of book clubs, male aggression in the wild, and the ... more

4.6 out of 5 stars from 1.9k ratings
  • Sound very hit and miss

    Like a lot of Times Radio output, the sound quality is very hit and miss, way too much bass, lots of studio rumblings, booming mics. Some episodes are almost unlistenable.

  • My fave pod - my WFH companions

    Jane, Fi and Eve keep me company while I WFH. I love the mix of serious chat and pure silliness. Giggling and silly accents most welcome.

  • A lovely and important part of my life

    My absolute favourite podcast. Love these brilliant women. I look forward to listening each evening and am bereft when they’re off. Intelligent, comforting, topical, current, wide-ranging and hilarious.

  • A bit hit and miss.

    It can be enjoyable, informative, fun. I was thrown by a rather hostile interview recently by JG with Julien Clarey. She was tetchy and it was as if she was looking for something to have a go at him about. If you invite someone, at least have an idea what you want to talk to them about. And the sniffy, I don’t get Taskmaster, just silly. It felt like FG was called into rescue it. Julien C was as cool and urbane as you would expect.

Just here for the fizz and the snacks (with Matthew Sweet)
Q: What was it about her that made you devote so much time to exploring Barbara Cartland in depth?
Sweet explains Cartland's magnetism lay in a mix of relentless work ethic, strategic self-presentation, and an ability to connect with readers across generations, which made her more than a superficial icon and worthy of a nuanced biography.
Two slightly plump middle-aged men have entered the room (with William Boyd)
Q: For people who haven't met Gabriel Dax before, can you just tell us a bit about him?
Yes, he's a young man born in 1930, a troubled youth who becomes a successful travel writer, and he is gradually drawn into MI6 work, a life split between his literary career and espionage.
Just don't strap your penis to a ballpoint pen (with Ben Macintyre)
Q: What inspired you to write Redwood and set it in Tehran in the 80s?
