(Irony is often impossible to detect in writing, so I would just like to clarify that <em>yes, I was being ironic.<\/em>)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Boris Johnson stepping down as Prime Minister, there are obviously many podcasts covering the political fallout. <em>The Rest is Politics <\/em>stands out because its format relies on different perspectives from different sides of the political spectrum. It consists of a conversation between Alistair Stewart (who served as Downing Street\u2019s Director of Communications under Tony Blair) and Rory Stewart (previously a Conservative MP who stood against Boris Johnson for party leader three years ago). In their latest episode, they provide in-depth analysis of what Rory Stewart describes as being \u201cthe most bizarre, surreal 36 hours in British politics.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The podcast also serves as a bit of a tonic. At a time when politics and issues in our country have never felt more divisive, here is a podcast that highlights these differences but reflects on the similarities we all share too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/music.amazon.com\/podcasts\/08c66966-12a5-4713-9c0c-412a7df9b15d\/44-presents-the-noughties#:~:text=For%20the%20next%20ten%20weeks,the%20culture%20of%20that%20era.\"><strong>+44 Presents: The Noughties <\/strong><\/a><strong>&#8211; <\/strong>There have been a lot of great documentaries on television as of late delving into the noughties revealing that, despite feeling familiar to the times we are living in now, values in society have changed considerably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is this theme that is explored in such great detail in this ten part series presented by Nadia Jae and Eddie Kae from <em>+44 podcast<\/em>. In each episode they look at how the decade was a defining decade for Black music or culture, often joined by a special guest who was a part of it too. Whilst celebrating the decade, they also look at how much has changed in a key issue such as representation, and how much still does need to change in 2022.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This podcast is an Amazon Original, so you need to use their app or website to access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/podfollow.com\/1628519589\"><strong>Different, with Nicky Campbell<\/strong><\/a><strong> &#8211; <\/strong>Nicky Campbell is known for his phone segment on 5 Live, where members of the public share their views on the topic of the day. He\u2019s an effective moderator, simply because he allows people to talk and doesn\u2019t interrupt with his own agenda. It is this skill that also makes this new BBC podcast such a welcoming listen, as it features him interviewing someone with an extraordinary life story, asking all of the right questions and giving the guest adequate space to talk candidly about it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There are some fascinating conversations so far. There\u2019s a chat with someone who managed to escape from a cult, who explained that smart and wealthy individuals are often targets to join because they can become their biggest assets. He also meets Zara, professional dominatrix, who talks candidly about the customers her line of work tends to attract: \u201cIt\u2019s because they feel in their daily life that they are so involved in what they are doing that they want somebody else to take control and submit to and have the freedom,\u201d she said. \u201cThat\u2019s a lot of feedback you get from people who are in high paid jobs, or have really stressful jobs.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/podfollow.com\/1632047182\"><strong>Women\u2019s Football Weekly<\/strong><\/a><strong> <\/strong>&#8211; Finally, the Women\u2019s 2022 Euros kicked off earlier this week and The Guardian have launched an entertaining podcast providing the latest analysis from the tournament, hosted by football writer Suzanne Wrack and broadcaster Faye Carruthers. With special guests featured in every episode, the podcast has a great balance of having in-depth analysis for existing fans whilst being accessible and welcoming for new fans.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was back on <a href=\"https:\/\/podfollow.com\/1334679524\"><strong>Podcast Radio Hour on BBC Radio 4 Extra<\/strong><\/a> this week with Chris Pearson in an episode looking at all of the greatest podcasts out this July.
