For 18 seasons, the British Scandal podcast has tackled historic drama, from Lord Lucan to the Litvinenko affair. But Boris Johnson presents a new, juicy, and current challenge for hosts Matt Forde and Alice Levine. They describe the requirements for a person featured on their show as “Elite background, dripping in privilege. A philanderer, ideally. A huge ego. A liar. Power-hungry. Just shameless.” How could they not do a series on Johnson? Divulging the dramas that led to his demise, Forde and Levine start with his childhood and work up to stories like the Chris Pincher affair and Partygate. In London, Christmas has come early. —Clara Molot
