Episodes
  • He’ll have to go & other tales
    Jul 3 2026

    Step into the confessional with Simon Mayo and the Confessions Collective for RAF police “Batmobile” patrols that terrorise midnight Cluedo players… and accidentally spotlight the boss.

    Max relives a 1989 traffic jam, a suspiciously wide-necked Apple-Aid bottle, and a lay-by moment that ends with an unfortunate “gift” for a grateful hitchhiker.

    Then Jani’s missing neon tetra is found in the worst possible place.


    Plus: Colin the Carpet Criminal blames silverfish after a DIY electrics plan tears up a brand-new carpet.

  • You’ve been, you’ve been thunderstruck & other tales
    Jun 26 2026

    Step into the confessional with Simon Mayo and the Confessions Collective for sibling “rugby practice” that ends in A&E, a holiday comeback that goes painfully wrong, a Dolly Parton impression and a truly grim Vaseline mix-up.

    Nick relives 1984: a beanbag tackle bag, a perfectly executed “chop tackle”, and a sister’s head meeting a handmade doll’s house — followed by a bunk-bed cover story… and stolen cola cubes.

    Plus: Stephanie tries to thunderstrike her prankster husband, Mr Lloyd double-dips, and Dave’s Dolly Parton watermelon routine has terrible consequences.

  • In through the out door & other tales
    Jun 19 2026

    Step into the confessional with Simon Mayo and the Collective for exam cheating in a lucky jumper, a welding lesson that goes catastrophically… south, and a nursing “snapshot” you may not want to hear while eating. First, Homer admits to a very 70s kind of malpractice: smuggling fully-loaded notes into a final exam on official paper and somehow ending up a headteacher. Then apprentice welder Steve hands a gas torch to a hoity-toity naval officer who won’t do her jacket up — cue molten metal, bedlam, and a breakdancing stripper moment. Plus: Emma’s 80s Saturday job prank with “party poppers”, and Susan’s slippery suppository nightmare… Got a confession? confessions@greatesthitsradio.co.uk

five stars absolutely. i listen to the superb confessions whilst im cleaning at the local dentist, and they often have the same affect as sucking on a pipe full of dental laughing gas!
the predictable guilty and non guilty verdicts of sister holly and brother matt, and the amazing vocal talents of father simon make the evening go quicker.
keep up the wonderful work, louise in bridport

I love this podcast, I used to listen years ago (showing my age - in the 90s) and have now found you again. I've binge-listened the previous episodes whilst driving to and from work but then saved them up so I could listen whilst I travel on a coach to my holiday. Needless to say, I am actually listening at the mo and I've had a couple of strange looks when I've not held in my laughter. Spot on, absolutely brilliant, please keep it going. I've told anyone who would listen about this and know you've got a few more listeners.

Glad you're back!

5 stars!! Can't always catch the drive time show live, so Iove the opportunity to listen to the podcast. Also love the Mark Knopfler Broadcast section... But where has Confessions From The Crypt gone?? I always used to try and guess what Matt's reason to forgive would be!!

Bring back Confessions From The Crypt
