In episode 260: Has Steven Bartlett inadvertently started the World War One of podcasting? Will Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce get married in Madison Square Garden? And why is America’s biggest news show having a very public meltdown?

Diary of a CEO host Steven Bartlett sent the podcasting world into a tailspin after complaining that three glasses of wine ruined his health scores. But why is Bartlett so polarising? And for how long can he walk the tightrope between edgy podcaster and BBC host?

In the wake of Dua Lipa and Callum Turner’s star-studded nuptials, Marina shares her field guide to the celebrity destination wedding. So who are the mandatory guests? And how closely will Taylor Swift adhere to the playbook when she ties the knot this summer?

David Ellison’s takeover of America’s No.1 news show, 60 Minutes, has sparked dramatic firings and accusations of political interference. So what’s actually going on, and how do you save a legacy news show?
