The Bugle - satire and silliness.
R4's Profile. 15 minutes on someone in the news. Benedict Cumberbatch last week, Mrs Mugabe this. They usually try and get a balanced portrait but I think they had some difficulties this week.
Janey Godley. Glaswegian mother and daughter comedian combination, just chatting and swearing and commenting on current affairs, both familial and global. I mainly listen for the unusual vowel sounds.
File on Four.
Serial, but you'd need to start at the beginning. This is something of a podcast phenomenon but I'm not sure why. It's a single case, true-life crime investigation, output weekly, with the strong chance that by the end we'll not be much nearer knowing the truth. But I'm still hooked.
Slate's The Gist, with Mike Pesca. c30 minutes Mon-Fri. A lot of the American cultural references go straight over my head, but I'm learning stuff too.
