This is NOT what i ASKED for

This brand new podcast is hosted by multiaward-winning celebrity hairstylis­t Jonathan Andrew, (right).

In each episode, he will invite a special guest to take a seat and open up about their life and career.

They will be sharing stories sparked by photos they have brought along with them depicting hairstyles that have been significan­t in their lives.

From his celeb clients such as Jamie Redknapp, Romesh Ranganatha­n and Joel Dommett to the likes of Roman Kemp, Pete Wicks and Maisie Adams, the podcast emulates the fun yet often honest and heartfelt conversati­ons that take place between Jonathan and his clients during their appointmen­ts.

Hosted by actor and comedian Ben Bailey Smith and psychother­apist Sasha Bates, the duo will put their favourite fictional characters ‘on the couch’, and analyse why their behaviour causes them so much drama, and why we find it so fascinatin­g. From Succession’s Shiv, to Omar from The Wire and Ross from Friends, Ben and Sasha will explore why these characters make certain decisions, what would happen if they made different ones, and what we can learn from their mistakes.

fanfare

New Yorker staff writer Lauren Collins attempting to impress Edith Wharton with ice-cold Champagne.

Their fortnightl­y discussion­s are always illuminati­ng, encompassi­ng the life and times of these cultural icons, and how their work has influenced everything that’s followed.

The missing

Could you help locate a missing person? That’s exactly what this tense series hosted by Pandora Sykes asks of its listeners.

Each episode focuses on a different case, stitching together beguiling clues about their last known whereabout­s as well as the emotional testimonie­s of friends and family, and implores the public to come forward with more informatio­n.

As theories are explored, dismissed and revisited, it will keep you on the edge of your seat and buoyed by the fact that the final piece of the puzzle might be found at any moment..
