  • Resumen

  • In a country obsessed with gossip, the great and the good fear one thing more than any other - scandal.

    British scandals change the course of history. They bring down governments, overthrow the rich and cause the mighty to fall. Some are about sex, others about money. In the end, they’re all about power.

    But often at the heart of a scandal, there are ordinary human stories. Stories of those caught up in the swirl of outrage.

    Who was really to blame for what happened? Why did they do it? And when all is said and done, did anything really change?

    From the creators of Business Wars, American Scandal and Ghost Story, comes British Scandal. Each week, hosts Alice Levine and Matt Forde delve into the murkier side of the British elite, from Phone Hacking to Profumo to the short-lived premiership of Liz Truss. Because sometimes the truth doesn’t set everyone free…

Brilliant!

I find the subject matter very interesting and the narraters are funny and light hearted but also great story tellers. I am enjoying this podcast as well as learning a thing or two along the way.

Are you joking ??

What an amazing content to create a podcast and you absolutely trash it by having these particular 2 presenters narrate it. These are important topics that have real consequences to all of us, and yet you have two Z list TV presenters trivialising it all with their very bad one liners and idiotic style. Fail fail fail !!
