Join us as we welcome barrister Imran Mahmood to the suspect interview.

We learn all about what it's like to appear at The Old Bailey, uncover shocking sheep revelations, and how Imran juggles the demands of both the legal and publishing worlds.

We also have an extra special guest for this episode... Gaz's old inspector. Yikes.

On episode five, crime-writing and broadcasting LEGEND Jackie Kabler joins us on the pod. She's a pro. We aren't.

We discuss retirement, Jackie's viral moments, how she navigates the broadcasting and literary world, and how - once upon a time - she managed to fall down the gap between the train and the platform edge...

Jackie's latest book, RUN FOR YOUR LIFE, is available now: https://amzn.eu/d/04K8ox8E

In episode four, Tina Payne joins us on the pod for 47 minutes and 30 seconds of utter carnage. Yes, I timed it.

We discuss first arrests, bet on just how long it'll take for Tina to swear, and find out exactly how she ended up being thrown into a river without a life-jacket...

Tina's latest novel in her DI Sheridan Holler series - One Bad Deed - is available on 21st July 2026 and you can buy it here: https://amzn.eu/d/0aOVfkj6

On episode 3 of Prose And Cons, Graham, John and Gaz are joined by Neil Lancaster (who was actually quite well behaved).

Get the inside line on what officers of different ranks within the police ACTUALLY do compared to what is portrayed in fiction, find out what boyband Graham has a secret penchant for, and learn all about 'carrot-crunching county forces'. John and Neil's words.

In episode two, we welcome crime writing and podcasting LEGEND Nadine Matheson along for a chat about her life on the other side of the interview table, as well as her incredible DI Henley series. We talk about why Nadine would advise a client to go 'no comment', how comic books might actually be tax deductible, and a confession that had us shocked to the core...

An introduction to Graham, John and Gaz as they embark on the very first episode of their new podcast, Prose and Cons.
