I've slowly got into these, only after I managed to sort out my phone to car settings.  I'm currently dipping in and out of old Desert Island Discs, Duolingo Spanish podcasts, Page One (The Writer's Podcast), Monsters Among Us, Currently Reading and Guardian Books. Any recommendations? |

I’m a huge fan of The Rest is Politics, and another one I listened to recently and enjoyed was West Cork, which is true crime and had me enthralled.

Thanks josette, I remember watching a programme (Netflix?) about the murder of Sophie Toscan du Plantier. Dreadful. |

One I enjoy is The Forum from the BBC World Service - a wide range of topics
Also Arts and Ideas - again from the BBC
For books and all things bookish, The Times Literary supplement podcast is excellent

I listen to A LOT. Mainly true crime, mythology, folklore, history etc. Love anything by Aaron Mahnke and for Robing Hobb fans there are two read along shows called Is Fitz Happy? and Buckkeep Radio.

I only listen to those through BBC Sounds (which are free) and I listen online rather than downloading.
They have put a lot of Radio 4 series on there. I enjoy Clare Balding's Ramblings; Mark Steel's In Town good fun, especially when it's a town you know; Marcus Brigstock - I've never seen Star Wars is good too.
I also catch up on I'm Sorry I Haven't A Clue via Sounds but they only have the current series on and not past ones.
