Podcasts to entertain during a long journey

We have been invited to some some time with a friend in the French Alps (she’s taken pity on us after our rather wet camping holiday!).

it’ll be a rather long drive with a 17 year old and 15 year old in the car! The last time we did such a long drive was 6 years ago and Harry Potter CDs did the trick nicely but neither of them want to listen to them again - and our current car doesn’t have a CD player so I’d have to rebut them!

Can anyone suggest some podcasts that might be entertaining please?

I love the "your dead to me" History ones where they pair a historian and a comedian to talk about a person, battle or thing. The one on the Bayeux Tapestry is great.

The 1981 audio production of the Lord of the Rings is amazing. I remember loving that on long car journeys, and it has stood the test of time!

Desert island discs. You all get to choose a person to listen to.
Diary of a CEO. Ditto. Lots of well known sports stars and popular influencers on it.

BBC iplayer;
It's a fair cop (6 series now in total I think)
Teach me a lesson.
A thorough examination, series 2 with Dr Chris and Dr Xand. It worked for me and I have changed a few things.

Cabin Pressure. Plus you'll learn how to play Yellow Car.

Thanks all, plenty to look into here.

I’m going to look at audiobooks too but am a bit wary of not using all of my phone memory with too much!
