What makes you a heretic? Journalist Andrew Gold believes that, in an age of group-think and tribes, we need heretics - those who use unconventional wisdom to speak out against their own groups, from cancelled comedians and radical feminists to cult defectors and vigilantes hunting deviants.
Learn from my guests how to rebel, think differently and resist social contagion. From Triggernometry's Francis Foster and the world's most cancelled man Graham Linehan to ex-Hasidic Jew Julia Haart and gender critical atheist Richard Dawkins. These are the people living with the weight of their own community's disappointment on their shoulders. -
Life’s A Beach sees Alan giving Judith Chalmers and Michael Palin a run for their money as he invites a famous guest each week to discuss their favourite places in the world. Bursting with anecdotes, laidback chat and laugh out loud travel tales - if this podcast was a suitcase you’d have to sit on it.
“My Life’s A Beach podcast is the escapism we ALL need right now. I sat down and chatted with some of my famous friends about everything travel. From caravanning in Rhyl to private jetting to the Maldives, my guests spill the beans on their holiday horrors and dream destinations. Let’s face it: we might not have the sun on our faces, but after a listen to this you’ll definitely have a smile” – ALAN CARR -

Economics and finance demystified.
A recent listener's comment:
"I first heard about ChatGPT on your podcast and immediately started using it. Iโm 73 and wrote my first program at 16. Having witnessed all developments in computing down the years I think this is the greatest since www. Your pod is informative in many different areas, politics, economics, society changes, housing crisis etc but at times goes beyond that. This episode tying up all this but also the implications of AI with a knowledgeable guest. ENTHRALLING! Keep it coming."

Say hi to Meet/Cute, a podcast about getting together, breaking up, and everything that comes in between.
Iโm your host, Rosemary Mac Cabe, journalist and author of the book, This is Not About You, a memoir told through a chronology of romantic relationships. As I was putting the book together, I started to think about how fascinating romance is. What brings two people together? And what tears them apart?
In this podcast, Iโll be talking to as wide an array of people as I can about the relationships that have colored the landscape of their lives. What age were they when they met their first love? Do they have a type? What red flags have they started to recognize along the way?
In other words: tell. Me. Everything.
This is a podcast for romantics; itโs a podcast for lovers, and dreamers; itโs a podcast for anthropologists but, above all else, itโs a podcast for nosy f*ckers. Join me every Thursday for a new chat about the ins and outs โ if youโll excuse the pun โ of finding love.
Meet/Cute, available wherever you get podcasts.
