Has anyone mentioned The Ratline? It's been out for a while but I only just listened. Very well told story about a Nazi war criminal on the run.

It's on the same podcast feed (Intrigue) as Tunnel 29 which I'm told is very good too. That's next on my list...
The rat line was very good. Thanks for the recommendation. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p06lh2b5

Recently discovered GOSSIPmongerS. Hilarious, haven’t laughed so much at a podcast since My Dad Wrote A Porno. The stupid robot voice between stories needs to be dumped ASAP, but otherwise I find it very funny indeed.
I tried it again today, the incessant cackling is intensely annoying, had to turn it off.Dr Death it really good....that bloke was off the scale.

Finished listening to 'Ratline' over the weekend, it's an enjoyable story but somewhat light on the Ratline itself, so don't get into it if you want to learn about that.
I thought it was a bit thin, to be honest. Preferred Tunnel 29 from the same source, which I've just finished. But again, thought it was a bit thin.AdeTuono said:
Love him or hate him (I'm firmly in the 'love him' camp), Danny Baker's just started his new Treehouse podcast with Louise Pepper, twice weekly.
I've always liked him when he has appeared on the podcasts I subscribe to. Will check it out (As long as its not a football podcast)
Cautionary Tales
I loved this but it's really difficult to explain.
The closest thing I can think of is the court scene in Chernobyl when he explains the sequence of events that ultimately led to the disaster. If you liked that, odds are you'd like this podcast.
This podcast uses real life examples; some catastrophic, some incredibly benign, to explain the psychological, systemic and organisational failings that breed disaster. Why, for example, is Warren Beatty reading out the wrong Oscar winner connected to 3 Mile Island?
Presented by Tim Harford who is one of those incredibly rare people who can distill complex ideas into simple language (unlike me as you can see from this post!), it is intellectual yet easy listening and very well produced. Give the first episode a go.
