I love Louis Theroux and his documentaries, and I was excited to see he'd made a podcast that I could listen to while working and out and about, especially as any TV documentaries of his are likely not going to happen for a while!

Overall this is a rather entertaining and informative podcast. The majority of the people featured at least know about (except for KSI and Troy Deeney), but they wouldn't necessarily be my first choices to feature in something like this. However when listening I actually found i was hugely interested in what they had to say and what they'd been through in their lives. Miriam Margolyes especially is an absolutely hoot, I was cracking up listening to her.

Throughout each episode Louis keeps up his usual interview style that always does him well. I have to be honest I think his style doesn't quite work as well as a podcast rather than on TV. He often uses long pauses to prompt his guests to keep talking which on TV is fine as you have a visual to look at whats going on, but on a podcast it's just silence which gets a bit awkward. Louis technically recorded this audio via Zoom so I guess he had video to work with initially but this did frustrate me a little.

Overall though this is a very interesting, entertaining and often funny podcast that's worth listening to if you're a fan of Louis.

**BOOK SYNOPSIS**
1965. Sandy runs away from home to escape her mother’s abusive boyfriend. Becca falls in love with the wrong man. And Faith suffers a devastating attack. With no support and no other options, these three young, unwed women meet at a maternity home hospital in New Orleans where they are expected to relinquish their babies and return home as if nothing transpired.

But such a life-altering event can never be forgotten, and no secret remains buried forever. Twenty-five years later, the women are reunited by a blackmailer, who threatens to expose their secrets and destroy the lives they’ve built. That shattering revelation would shake their very foundations—and reverberate all the way to the White House.

Told from the three women’s perspectives in alternating chapters, this mesmerizing story is based on actual experiences of women in the 1960s who found themselves pregnant but unmarried, pressured by family and society to make horrific decisions. How that inconceivable act changed women forever is the story of No Names to Be Given, a heartbreaking but uplifting novel of family and redemption.

Death of a Gladiator
One morning Clark Thomas is awakened by a text from one of the detectives in town requesting his presence at a crime scene. The body of Connor West has washed up on the local state beach. Connor was the star of one of the local tourist attractions, a gladiator themed dinner and show.

Even after Clark is warned away from the case, he can’t help but dig into Connor’s life and his work at the Gladiator Games Dinner Show. With a face from his past as his way into the lives of those Clark wants to interview, can he figure out what happened?

I had an issue with how Clark got involved in the mystery here, but I put that aside and kept reading. The mystery was good with several strong suspects and twists along the way to a logical climax. I appreciated how Clark went about things in the climax, too. We also got to know him and a couple of characters better, although I feel like we have many who hardly had any page time. The writing could have used polish in several spots, but most of the time it was fine. There is a little advancement on the cliffhanger from the previous book, but we’ll have to keep reading to see where it goes next. Overall, this is a fun second book in the series.
