Sleaford Mods Go Metal Detecting: The Best Podcasts of the Week
In a bizarre twist on traditional metal detecting, Sleaford Mods frontman Jason Williamson joined producer and host James Deacon for an hour-long podcast that was more suited to visual consumption. The two took to a green space for a ramble, chatting about life, death, and everything in between while attempting to dig up rusty nails.
Meanwhile, fans of music will be delighted by the latest season of Eras: Phil Collins, which explores the drummer's rise to fame from backing Peter Gabriel on tour to becoming a solo sensation. The series features exclusive interviews with Collins himself, as well as other notable figures who've crossed his path over the years.
But for true crime enthusiasts, the real pick of the week has to be The Missing Cryptoqueen. After six years of searching, the BBC's Jamie Bartlett and his team have finally got their best lead yet in tracking down elusive cryptocurrency scammer Dr Ruja Ignatova. Will they finally uncover the truth behind her mysterious disappearance?
History buffs will also enjoy The History Bureau, which delves into one of Putin's most infamous moments: the 1999 bombing that killed over 300 people. Journalist Helena Merriman speaks to those who were on the scene that day, shedding light on a conspiracy theory that's been shrouded in secrecy for years.
In a lighter vein, fans of The Ant and Dec Show will be in stitches as they relive their own hilarious diary entries from 1994. Expect plenty of laughs with this entertaining podcast that feels like spending time with old mates.
Finally, those who love surreal comedy will devour The Harry Hill Show, a visualised podcast that showcases the absurd antics of its host. With guests like Stewart Lee and Licky the puppet, it's a wild ride from start to finish.
