The 13th Step
Stand out podcast of the year so far is The 13th Step. It investigates sexual abuse and harassment in the substance misuse recovery system – the 12 step programmes. Although it’s very American, I found it absolutely engaging, incredibly well researched and presented in an accessible way. It wasn’t too sensationalist despite probably falling into the true crime category, and the presenter had clearly done her research. I felt it contained a good breadth of experiences and information and dealt with emotive topics very sensitively, while pulling no punches. Jen, Southwest England
