M+ CULTURE: The Podcasts that we always have downloaded.
Whether you want light-hearted culture, a little parenting solidarity, or the feeling of gossiping with friends over a glass of wine, these are the shows we always have on our download list.
Perfect for long drives, folding laundry, or just hiding from the kids for half an hour.
1. Miss Me? with Lily & Miquita
If you are born in or around the mid 80’s this one will resonate hard. A transatlantic catch-up between lifelong friends Lily Allen and Miquita Oliver, it’s nostalgic, hilarious, and way more intimate than your average celebrity pals having chat. Expect big cultural moments, wild anecdotes, and the kind of brutal honesty you only get between two people who grew up side by side.
2. Made by Mammas
TV presenter Zoe Hardman and Georgia Dayton bring their individual experiences of motherhood to life in this warm, non-judgemental parenting podcast. From sleep and school run drama to sex and friendships plus chats with experts and famous faces, it’s like having two smart, funny friends walk you through the chaos of parenthood.
3. Sentimental Garbage
Caroline O’Donoghue’s award-winning podcast is a love letter to the pop culture we hold dear – from Nora Ephron to the high street to cult classic films it’s all in here.
You’ll probably know it for Sentimental in The City (the deep-dive into Sex and the City with Dolly Alderton), and the recent episode where the duo came back together to dissect And Just Like That…. this one is sharp, funny, and often moving you will happily lose yourself in the conversations for hours.
