The BBC\u2019s Disinformation and Social Media Correspondent is the co-host of <em>Americast<\/em> and made documentaries for Panorama. As well as that, she\u2019s made several compelling BBC Sounds series exploring the damage caused by disinformation and conspiracy theories, the latest of which was released just this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this new series, Spring investigates The Light, a conspiracy theory newspaper, and how it has been a factor in the radicalisation that it has caused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe Light\u2019s tagline is \u2018the uncensored truth,\u2019\u201d says Spring. \u201cIt opposes traditional media and believes that journalists like me are lying about what is happening in the world.\u201d The series, broken up into 15 minute episodes, are compelling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/podfollow.com\/1691284824\"><strong>Unhedged<\/strong><\/a><strong> &#8211; <\/strong>The Financial Times have a decent set of podcasts, which cover everything from personal finance to extra bits that accompany articles from their popular Weekend editions. Their latest, Unhedged, recorded from both the UK and the US, tries to explain the wider issues in the economy in layman&#8217;s terms (which helps as I got a B at GCSE maths.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>New episodes are out every Tuesday and Thursday, the first of which looks at the signs that a recession is on its way, and whether you can accurately predict the future of the economy. It\u2019s a good explainer into why things are the way they are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/podfollow.com\/1690161586\"><strong>Write Me Dirty<\/strong><\/a><strong> &#8211; <\/strong>Ever since the end of <em>My Dad Wrote A Porno<\/em>, there has been a gap for a podcast featuring baffling and bewildering erotic literature. This new podcast features well-known names writing and then reading aloud their own erotic stories, with the other co-host poking fun at whatever they\u2019ve created. The first episode features Jamie Laing and the comedian Tom Lucy sharing their work. And no, I cannot repeat any of what they have written here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/podfollow.com\/1692225522\"><strong>Digging with Flo<\/strong><\/a><strong> &#8211; <\/strong>Flo Dill, who presents the NTS Breakfast Show, finds that you tend to have great conversations with people when you are undertaking an activity or when you are out in the open air.
