Brainwash Me with Poppy Hillstead - Comedian Poppy Hillstead, who made a memorable podcast about chat rooms, is back with an equally memorable and offbeat offering. In each episode a guest with a passion is invited onto the programme and has to convince Poppy that their passion is actually interesting. Poppy finds out whether they have succeeded by attaching her head to a brain scanner whilst they are talking and then having her and a scientist check the results. As the guest has to constantly try to convince Poppy that what they are saying is actually interesting, you actually learn a lot about their subject too. Guests so far include Rupert, who is into social nudity and Tony, a professional wrestler.
