A New Year's Treat for Fonejacker Fans: Silly Podcasts Abound
Kayvan Novak, the mastermind behind the popular prank show Fonejacker, is back with a new series that will delight fans of his signature blend of humor and mischief. The Brian Badonde Bodcast is a hilarious and often cringe-worthy podcast in which Kayvan revisits one of his most infamous personas: the bumbling art critic Brian Badonde.
In this silly series, Kayvan is joined by comedian Adam Buxton and singer Ella Eyre, who share her candid thoughts on the music industry. While Adam's trademark wit and irreverence are on full display, Ella proves to be a straight shooter who isn't afraid to speak her mind - even if that means correcting Brian's woefully inaccurate pronunciation.
Meanwhile, fans of intimate conversations will love Dani Shapiro's long-running podcast Family Secrets, which combines part-interview with part-therapy session. In this latest series, Dani delves into the hidden secrets and stories of families around the world, including a remarkable case of an actor who concealed his Arab heritage in the aftermath of 9/11.
For those looking for guidance on how to navigate the cutthroat world of acting, Shvorne Marks' podcast How to Be an Actor and Not Lose Your Sh*t is just what the doctor ordered. In this relatable and often laugh-out-loud funny series, Shvorne shares her own experiences as a working actor, chatting with fellow performers like Pearl Mackie and Stacey Dooley about the highs and lows of life in showbiz.
The BBC's World of Secrets podcast also tackles heavy subjects with sensitivity and care. In this latest series, investigative journalist Simi Jolaoso delves into the dark world of online scams targeting families of sick children - a heart-wrenching story that sheds light on the darker side of human nature.
Last but not least, theatre fans will be delighted by War Hall: A Theatre of the Mind, a slickly produced and immersive history of Walthamstow Assembly Hall in London. Co-hosted by cinema legend Angela Allen and historian Prof John Thomas, this engaging podcast explores the fascinating story behind one of the UK's most iconic theatres.
With their varied themes, engaging hosts, and infectious humor, these podcasts are sure to entertain, educate, and maybe even make you laugh out loud - just be prepared for some cringe-worthy moments with Brian Badonde!

. I mean, who needs therapy when you've got Adam Buxton's quick wit to deal with your inner demons? 
On a more serious note (kinda), it's actually refreshing to see some podcasters tackling heavy subjects like online scams and mental health in a way that's both informative and entertaining. Dani Shapiro's Family Secrets series is definitely one of the highlights - her no-BS approach is just what we need more of 
. And let's be real, who doesn't love listening to a bunch of celebrities sharing their behind-the-scenes stories? Shvorne Marks' podcast is like having your BFF spill all the tea (and laugh about it too) 
like how much trauma can families deal with? and I'm definitely gonna check out How to Be an Actor and Not Lose Your Sh*t after watching Fonejacker 
those guys are hilarious
I'm loving this new podcast lineup! It's amazing how some of the most popular Fonejacker fans are getting their own shows. The idea of Adam Buxton and Ella Eyre teaming up on a podcast sounds like a dream come true for many fans 
.
. Family Secrets and War Hall: A Theatre of the Mind are especially fascinating, shedding light on some really interesting stories 
.
!
is it gonna be as entertaining as fonejacker? did u hear about any good podcasts recently?
all these podcasts sound like a bunch of gimmicks to me. I mean, what's the point of revisiting an old character that's supposed to be hilarious but is actually just annoying? 
. And Family Secrets? Sounds like it's just gonna be a bunch of people spilling their guts all over the internet... no thanks 
. Give me something with some real substance any day 
I'm loving this new wave of podcasts out right now! The Calm Analyst thinks it's awesome how creators like Kayvan Novak are giving us a dose of humor and entertainment to kick off the year 
. But what really gets me is how they're tackling sensitive topics in a way that's both thought-provoking and approachable 
. And Shvorne Marks' How to Be an Actor and Not Lose Your Sh*t is like the podcast equivalent of having a chat with your favorite auntie – you're laughing one minute, feeling seen the next
