IN THE DARK

Season one was (correctly)

described as better than

Serial. Madeleine Baran

follows that award-winning

feat of investigative

journalism with another

compelling case. Her

subject? Curtis Flowers,

who has been tried for the

same crime six times over

21 years in Mississippi.

Episode two, in particular,

will knock you out.

BINGE MODE

Hyperactive, hyper-articulate

and hyper-funny – Mallory

Rubin and Jason Concepcion

crank their energy levels up

to 11 when they’re behind the

mic. These pop-culture

commentators first made their

mark by forensically analysing

all seven seasons ofGame of

Thrones. They’ve since nerded

out about everything from

Black MirrortoThe Good Place

and theHarry Potteruniverse.

THE DAVE

CHANG SHOW

He’s been a frequent guest

on various podcasts

(his appearances on Brian

Koppelman and Ezra Klein’s

shows are two of the best food

interviews you’ll ever hear), so

it’s natural that David Chang

now has his own audio feed.

The series launches with his

ultra-candid experience

of opening restaurants in

Press play: podcastsBy the (very) public eye.

Flóki three-year-old Single

Malt by Eimverk, Iceland

Flóki is a paddock-to-bottle whiskey

made with hardy Icelandic barley

that brings more flavour than

Scottish or European malt. This

young bottling really showcases

the nuttiness of the malt and

gets a big thumbs-up.$160 for

500ml, sigrunwhisky.com
