These are picks that we genuinely listen to and love, which is why we’re including reviews from some of our team members, so keep reading to find out what to add to your queue.
A must-listen for true crime lovers, Redhanded has been intriguing listeners since 2017. The hosts, Suruthi and Hannah, discuss cases in a way that’s easy to digest, and it’s clear they’re having fun while doing it. From the bigger real-life crimes and horrific mysteries we all know to smaller cases that may have been overlooked otherwise, this podcast helps bring them to light while keeping us totally hooked.
As you can see by our review, it’s a popular pick and, with over 400 episodes to binge, you’re really in for a treat here.
Suruthi Bala and Hannah Maguire
True Crime
“A true crime podcast bound to have you hooked from the first listen if you’re a spooky b*tch! RedHanded jumps headfirst into all manner of macabre madness. They cover everything from big-time serial killers (and those you may never have heard of), to hauntings, possessions, disturbing mysteries, bizarre whodunits and basically anything that tickles their creepy fancy.“
“Covers everything creepy from big serial killers to hauntings. Hosts are well researched but keep the episodes light with humour and British sarcasm throughout.”
“I’m a true crime fan, and this podcast picks the most interesting cases and discusses them in a balanced conversation. It’s funny too, making the darker episodes easier to listen to!”
If you want a window into the world of fashion history, this podcast is for you. Fashion lovers and amateur historians can both enjoy this selection as the two hosts delve into the social and cultural impact of different eras in fashion. Each episode is a fun time travel adventure with a fashion angle so what’s not to love?
April Calahan and Cassidy Zachary
Fashion History
“With hosts that combine their knowledge with lighthearted discussion, plus so many different topics and periods of history discussed, how could I not love this? They don’t just talk about the styling of clothes and accessories (which I still love), but they also explore how fashion trends came to be and different sides of that industry.”
Described as a ‘cosmic coming of age’ (which we’re totally here for), this empowering and relatable podcast is just what we need to feel motivated. Caggie, a Made in Chelsea alum, created this as a guide for listeners, and we’re loving the community vibes.

Lifestyle & Spirituality
“This just makes me feel calm, plus it’s authentic and clever. Also, it has a lot of old Made in Chelsea stars on it, which always piques my interest.”
Formerly known as ‘Wonderbox’, this fun podcast is great to listen to after a long, tough day. Every episode has a new guest, including a selection of some of your favourite celebs, and they discuss things that bring them joy – so simple but also so effective. Russell Howard, as always, is such a source of positivity here, so we’re loving this pick.
Russell Howard
Comedy & Nonfiction
“Russell Howard is one of my favourite comedians and he has the pulling power for fantastic guests who speak openly and truly about some of their favourite things in life, and the way it can vary from wacky to relatable to comforting makes it such an easy, enjoyable listen.”
The ever-so-glam model and Strictly winner Abbey and her ex-footballer hubby, Peter, host this funny and honest podcast, with 65 episodes in its first series. It’s all about relationship dynamics, with content that will either make you laugh while you listen to it with your partner or maybe make you grateful that you’re single.
Abbey Clancy and Peter Crouch
Comedy
“It’s a lighthearted, easy-listening podcast that’s perfect for playing in the background while cooking, driving, or doing the chores. Abbey and Peter chat openly about the ups and downs of life, relationships, and parenting, making it relatable to everyone. They’ve got fun regular segments and my personal favourite is their ‘weekly whines’ about each other, which my partner and I always find both hilarious and spot-on.”
An easy way to keep up with what’s going on in the online and social media world, this podcast will make staying in the loop with trends and why they’re happening super easy. If gossip with your friends could become an elevated discussion, this is it.
Beth McColl, Ruchira Sharma & Oenone
Pop Culture
“Each week they discuss what they have been loving that week, including films, viral long reads, Instagram scandals, celebrity nonsense, reality TV obsessions and TikTok trends. It’s well-researched but also very funny. It feels like you’re at drinks with the girls.”
As social media stars and best friends, these hosts have amassed millions of followers across their multiple platforms and, since 2023, have been entertaining their fans with this podcast. Though they’re known for their senses of humour, this podcast has a surprising educational twist, making it a great listen when you want something a little different.
Italian Bach and ArthurTV
Comedy/Science/History
“The podcast is a great balance of comedy and discussions on planetary science alongside historical/mythological stories. The hosts are best friends and have great chemistry (pun intended), and the humour makes the facts super digestible.”
If you want candid makeup, hair and skincare advice, plus easy-going chats and reviews of popular beauty products, Jill and Carlene are here to help. The beauty editor hosts describe their experience as having ‘seen it all and swatched it all’, and this is apparent in every episode. For those wanting to up their beauty game, this is a fab listen.
Jill Dunn and Carlene Higgins
Beauty & Wellbeing
“Sometimes you just need a safe pair of hands when it comes to beauty advice, and Jill and Carlene are just that. I feel like a self-care queen after listening to them, and their tips have never failed me. A great, easy-going listen when I’m doing stuff around the house.
What’s more comforting than a food podcast? One starring a mum and daughter duo. You may know Jessie Ware for her amazing singing voice, but she’s also been hosting this podcast with her mum since 2017.
Warm and inviting (like one of Lennie’s tasty dishes), Table Manners has had celebrity guests like Princess Eugenie, Sam Smith, Cher, Dolly Parton, Sir Paul McCartney, Danny Dyer, Selena Gomez, and Ed Sheeran.
Jessie and Lennie Ware
Food
“Each episode, Jessie & Lennie host and cook for a celebrity guest. It feels like you’re at the table having a cosy chat. They cover all things foodie, family dinners of old, favourite restaurants and your desert island meal, which is just so nice to listen to after work.”
A spin-off podcast from the Redhanded gals (who already have a lot of love from the team!) Flesh and Code tells the real-life story of emotional and eventually intimate romantic relationships people have with AI companions through an app, which one day takes a disturbing turn.
Hannah Maguire & Suruthi Bala
True Crime/Investigative Journalism
“If you want to listen to something truly gripping, this is it. It left me with a lot of feelings, and I just couldn’t stop listening. Hannah and Suruthi are so good at this.”
This will completely depend on what you’re doing while listening and where you are. The majority of podcasts are available on multiple platforms including some visual so, its easier than ever to get listening.
You may want to pop it on your speaker while you clean or cook or you might have it on in the car while driving to work. If you’re on public transport, at work or just want to drown out external noise so you can properly chill out, you may need a good pair of headphones like the AirPods Max featured in our Apple tech bundle (now finished, but we always have great tech bundles in the pipeline).
If you’re looking to add a touch of luxury to your wardrobe with a quality designer bag, Your Dream Bag may be just what you’re looking for.
With our handpicked selection of designer handbags, accessories, luxury home goods, and easy-to-enter competitions, getting your hands on your next fashion fave is just a few clicks away.
