We’ve got a big scoop for you today! Miranda Sawyer is back with a brand new podcast. Talk ’90s to me is out now and will be with you every Monday. The show dives deep into a wild decade of chaos, creativity and hedonism – from Oasis to ‘Friends’, from grunge to girl power, from Kate Moss to alcopops to ‘Trainspotting’ and beyond. Join Miranda as she meets the people who were really there for the decade of Cool Britannia, Cantona and the Chemical Generation.

The first episode is all about Oasis and how their rise kickstarted the decade, with expert guest Ted Kessler. Listen to a teaser of that now and head over to Talk ’90s to me to listen to the full episode, or watch if you’re on Spotify, and subscribe for more. Who knows, there might be some other Paper Cuts cameos on the way…

Every week on CRIME SCENE, ex-Met Police Commissioner Bernard Hogan-Howe and former Mirror editor Alison Phillips lift the lid on how criminal investigations really work. In our debut episode: The shooting of an innocent nine-year-old girl in Dalston in 2024 laid bare bitter rivalries between London’s armed gangs. Are police they fighting a losing battle against guns in the Capital?
