The Louis Theroux Podcast - Fresh from the latest series of Louis Theroux Interviews on BBC Two, Theroux is now launching the second series of his interview podcast. And unlike the first series, this one will now be available beyond the walled garden of Spotify, on all podcast genres.

And similar to his TV series, the guests that are invited onto his podcast are an eclectic mix. Guests coming up in the series include Sharon Stone, Baz Luhrmann and PinkPantheress. His first guest? The one and only Paul Mescal. 

They talk about his rise to fame following Normal People and the uniqueness of being within the public eye. Theroux introduces him in the most Theroux way possible. “The young and notably gorgeous, [Mescal], I’m told. I didn’t notice. I’m very very very straight.”
