Comedian, writer, politics junkie: Matt Forde is many things, and when it comes to podcasting, he’s also many people. His skill as an impressionist has been put to use on Wondery’s British Scandal, where he voices the famous figures behind many of the country’s most jaw-dropping shenanigans. Alongside co-host Alice Levine, he’s retold scandals from Diana and Charles’ ‘Crowded Marriage’ to the poisoning of Alexander Litvinenko.

He also hosts his own podcast, The Political Party, and says that the popularity of British Scandal within the corridors of power has been useful in getting high-profile guests like Philip Hammond and Angela Rayner. Forde at down with Rhianna Dhillon and Adam Shepherd to talk about the role of satirical podcasting in politics, how to balance humour with serious subjects, and why it’s so much fun being Boris Johnson.

Hosted by Rhianna Dhillon, and produced by Emma Corsham for Haymarket Business Media.
