Each episode looks at a different sport, from rugby league to golf, featuring stars such as Olympic swimmer Alice Dearing and golfer Meghan MacLaren.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/podfollow.com\/1532912344\"><strong>The Frost Tapes<\/strong><\/a><strong> &#8211; <\/strong>David Frost hardly needs an introduction. The journalist and interviewer was at the heart of both the British and American entertainment and political worlds for decades; admired equally for his warmth and his knack in asking difficult but necessary questions (even by the people he was asking these difficult questions to.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>David Frost died in 2013, and in the years since his son Wilfred Frost has been going through his vast interview archives. In this podcast, which has now returned with a new BBC Radio 4 run, you\u2019ll hear excerpts of his interviews with some of the biggest entertainment names from the 20th century. These interviews include Muhammad Ali, Jane Fonda, Sammy Davis Jr and Elton John.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What is fascinating about this podcast is not just hearing David Frost\u2019s phenomenal interviewing technique. It is also how these conversations provide a rich and intimate portrait of people you thought you already knew. Frost\u2019s career longevity meant that he spoke to the same people across decades, including members of The Beatles sixteen times. It is rare to hear snapshots of the same interviewee across their life being asked questions by the same interviewer. It\u2019s a bit like a celebrity <em>Seven Up!<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The whole series is a cracker. If you\u2019re looking for a good episode to start, I would recommend the excellent Michael Caine episode.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.podfollow.com\/1608224209\"><strong>Dua Lipa At Your Service &#8211; Summer Series<\/strong><\/a><strong> &#8211; <\/strong>&nbsp;A few months ago we featured the surprisingly deep celebrity discussion series hosted by the pop sensation Dua Lipa. At a time when celebrity interviewing series have become a bit stale (simply because half the time the interviewer and interviewees don\u2019t have anything particularly interesting to say) Lipa\u2019s stood out because she always asked fantastic questions and featured guests you wouldn\u2019t have heard anywhere else.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the summer and before the debut of series two, she has returned with a special mini series providing something a little bit different. There&#8217;s guided meditation to bring you back into the present moment as well as instructional audio yoga class for you to follow along at home, all voiced by her. The series is an ideal listen for fans of hers, because it provides something intimate yet also not self-indulgent.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.podfollow.com\/1639561921\"><strong>Empire<\/strong><\/a><strong> &#8211; <\/strong>From the team behind <a href=\"https:\/\/www.podfollow.com\/1611374685\"><strong>The Rest is Politics<\/strong><\/a> comes this new podcast delving into the complicated legacy of Empire. It is presented by the Scottish historian William Dalrymple and the television and radio presenter Anita Anand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They hope to provide more insight and context into a topic that has become so fiercely debated in recent years as well as provide more facts and insight into a topic that is still often skipped in the classroom syllabus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cI think it is a very interesting moment to think about Empire,\u201d says Dalrymple at the start of the series. \u201cIt feels like a subject that got tucked away in an attic in 1947. The British moved on, they joined the European community. They like to feel that they have left their Imperial past behind them, they turned into a different sort of nation \u2026 but they certainly forgot about the most important things the Brits ever did in world history.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The starting point is the Raj in India (ending with the Partition of India that took place 75 years ago this month), as it is a specialist subject of both of the show\u2019s presenters. The podcast will then branch into looking at Empire in a myriad of different ways, from slavery and colonialism to how its legacy of Empire influences our political culture.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Their fact based approach is refreshing and the podcast is one to look out for.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks so much for reading.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ll be back soon with another edition next Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><em>Subscribe and get this in your inbox each week:<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Before we get going with this week\u2019s podcast recommendations, just to let you know that some of the people behind the British Podcast Awards have just announced Podcast Day 24!&nbsp; It\u2019s a special event bringing together some of the biggest names in the podcast world, with lots of special talks covering all of the latest [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":1172,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.0 -
