In a more surreal twist, the cult is under the guise of a life coaching and mentoring scheme.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What becomes apparent from listening to Nye\u2019s investigation is how the people who ended up getting wrapped in the cult are not the people you would necessarily expect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/podfollow.com\/1678817531\"><strong>Queer Roots and Routes<\/strong><\/a><strong> &#8211; <\/strong>A new series that explores what it means to be an \u2018other,\u2019 looking through the lens of being queer and a migrant, or descended from a migrant. Each episode is fronted by a different member of a collective of individuals who identify as men or non-binary, who explores a different topic that they feel passionate about.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s a partnership between Aunt Nell (who created the celebrated <a href=\"https:\/\/podfollow.com\/1483782744\"><strong>Log Books<\/strong><\/a><em> <\/em>and <a href=\"https:\/\/podfollow.com\/1645877697\"><strong>Black and Gay, Back in the Day<\/strong><\/a>) and The Love Tank. And as you would expect, it is a well-produced, thoughtful production rich in storytelling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/podfollow.com\/making-money\"><strong>Making Money<\/strong><\/a><strong> &#8211; <\/strong>As the cost of living crisis continues to bite, this new podcast hosted by Timeyin Akerele and Damien Jordan explores the different ways we can continue to build wealth and look after our money better. Unlike a lot of podcasts that step into phoney ways of making money, the advice in this podcast is practical and realistic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Their first guest is Claer Barrett, the Consumer Editor of the Financial Times, who talks about the importance of finding out your relationship with money: \u201cIt\u2019s really really difficult to break out of the habits and behaviours that have been locked into our minds by our parents or the people who brought us up,\u201d says Barrett.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table is-style-regular\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Disruptors with Rob Moore<\/strong><\/td><\/tr><tr><td><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/podfollow.com\/1076679649\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">#Disruptors<\/a>&nbsp;interviews movers, shakers, change makers and game changers in a unique and direct way. Approaching 1,000 episodes and one of the original podcasters, hear incisive deep interviews with the most inspiring and surprising people. Host Rob Moore has 17 years experience building businesses and a property empire, giving him a bold approach and access to many billionaires and Disruptors to interview.

In each episode Catherine Carr walks up to some strangers and asks them where they are going. That\u2019s it. It always results in an interesting personal story from these strangers; sometimes uplifting, sometimes sad. Each episode of the podcast is only a few minutes too and usually recorded in a single take.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It also makes you realise that whilst we\u2019re all strangers, there are many things that still bind us together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you as always for reading (and listening).&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We\u2019ll be back next Sunday with another podcast newsletter.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome to The Great British Podcast Newsletter.
