Have a few very long, solo, drives coming up and will need some entertainment. Any recommendations for good comedy shows / podcasts available for free / on Spotify? Or investigative journalism? Really enjoyed The Missing Cryptoqueen recently so anything similar would be great. As an aside, this is a pretty incredible story! Also enjoying The Rest is History atm.
Lengthy:Hardcore History - Dan Carlin talks for 4+ hours at a time. There's a limited free library of them and then they go behind a paywall but for an example in the free stuff you can get his six episodes on Japan that will last for you nearly 26 hours.

Thanks for all the suggestions. Showing my podcast naivety I'd never heard of The Bugle! Enjoy Andy Zaltzmann on The News Quiz so that's perfect. Loads of others to go at to. Cheers!

Have you listened to the one about Elizabeth Holmes and her company Theranos?It’s called the drop out. I listened to it at a similar time to the missing cryptoqueen and it felt similar sort of vibes.

This kept me gripped for a 10 hour drive recently, so good. I didn't realise when I started listening that events are still unfolding and that the latest episode is well overdue. I wonder if the FBI or other authority has pressed them into not broadcasting?
I mean let's face it, she's surely swimming with the fishes by now!
