My Top 5 Favourite Podcasts

With the fourth series of In Our Own Words launching in just a few weeks, I thought I’d share what my top podcasts are and why I love them.

1. My Dad Wrote a Porno

Three friends having a laugh and reading terribly written porn, it always makes me laugh.

2. Alonement

In this Podcast, Francesca Specter breaks down the stigma of spending time alone, and gives advice to make it a positive practice… and series three has just launched!

3. The Calm Edit

This used to be a podcast that was released alongside a mental wellbeing magazine I loved, and the podcast is still going strong. Really great tips and advice to support your mental health and wellbeing.

4. Off Menu

Ed Gamble and James Acaster (who pretends to be a genie waiter) interview other comics and public figures about their favourite foods. A great place to start is the Victoria Coren Mitchell episode.

5. The Horne Section podcast

If you like taskmaster, comedy or music, this is the podcast for you.
