It can feel like we are at a saturation point when it comes to news podcasts, but this new series by the new hosts of the Sky News breakfast show has a unique hook. Called Cheat Sheet, Sophy Ridge and Wilfred Frost discuss the major stories driving the news agenda that day in under ten minutes. 

It is also one of the earliest recorded podcasts each day too, all wrapped up by 7am before they even step into the news studio, so you hear the same sort of talking points you’ll see on the programme if you don’t have time to personally watch. One of the most remarkable things from listening is that, even though they are up at that ungodly hour, they don’t sound tired.
