The High Low was a cult Number One pop culture and current affairs weekly podcast which ran from 2017-2020 and was created, hosted and produced by journalists Dolly Alderton and Pandora Sykes. "Don't be deceived by the show's breezy and approachable style; it works because its polymathic hosts are fiercely on top of their brief" wrote The Times. The Guardian called it "refreshing, witty", while The Financial Times remarked that it was "done with wit, intelligence and an archly raised eyebrow". Monthly author specials included interviews with best-selling writers such as Graham Norton, Leila Slimani, Candice Carty-Williams and David Nicholls. A sell-out UK tour in 2019 was followed by a goodbye special in December 2020, which was streamed to 12,000 people at home and raised £88,000 for Blood Cancer UK.
