Shiny Bob: The Devil’s Advocate

[Deodato]

One of the most gripping podcasts I've ever listened to - I did all episodes in one push. 

 

The BBC team raise the bar with this one, and I haven't seen it posted to date.

 

I'm of an age where I can vaguely remember Fettesgate and asking my parents 'what's that all about'. So to listen to this and hear the whole story unfold was un-real!

 

Hat tip to @MylesBonnar and the production team for taking the purpose of podcasts to the next level. 

 

Below, you've got the podcast, then the Disclosure TV documentary - I'd strongly recommend doing them in that order. 

 

(Also hearing its being touted for international audio/podcast awards - it's that good)

Loved it, a great listen

I really enjoyed the podcast as it was a great listen. 

 

One of the magic circle was my history teacher when I was at school and I reached out to the podcast creator to discuss it.

 

About 1996 when I was at Uni, my girlfriend and I moved into a bedsit at 37 Palmerston Place and, whilst we knew Tam Paton was our landlord and a bit dodgy, I was really surprise what happened at that building a few years before we moved in.

I listened to it a couple of weeks ago and really enjoyed it.  I mainly listen to podcasts in the car, so I found myself out driving more than I normally would to get through more episodes of it.

 

It amazes me that there was (is) a whole parallel world going on around me in Edinburgh.

Half way through it and its fascinating.

One complaint; the background music is intrusive and annoying!
