You know why you’re here. We’ve got podcasts, you want podcasts. It’s how this relationship works. This week Liz looks to the past in a comedic fashion with the history podcast You’re Dead To Me. Zane brings an etymology podcast that couldn’t be more British if it tried with Something Rhymes with Purple. And then Nick brings an interviewer that asks the hard questions in the sassiest way with Sway. Then it’s time for reviewing all the pods we brought last week. Liz Recommends - You’re Dead To Me https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p07mdbhg/episodes/downloads Hosted by Greg Jenner: Public historian and “chief nerd in horrible histories”. This is the history podcast for people who don't like history... and those who do. Greg Jenner brings together the best names in comedy and history to learn and laugh about the past. Every ep sees him with a comedian and a historian to talk things history. Then they quiz the comedian on what they’ve learned in the episode. For Both: Whatever eps take your fancy. https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/youre-dead-to-me/id1479973402 Nick Recommends - Sway Power, unpacked. “Sway” is a new interview show hosted by Kara Swisher, “Silicon Valley’s most feared and well-liked journalist.” Now taking on Washington, Hollywood and the world, Kara investigates power: who has it, who’s been denied it, and who dares to defy it.
