With the race for Number 10 hotting up, we've got an array of insightful podcasts to keep you both entertained and informed in the run-up to the big day on July 4.

As the UK gears up for the pivotal 2024 general election, the Mirror's airwaves are buzzing with a trio of shows that promise to illuminate the path to the polls. From hard-hitting discussion to a refreshing take on the more farcical side side of the battle for Downing Street, we suggest you tune in!

As our MPs do their best to get a chance to put right everything that's gone wrong with the UK over the past five years, we've got a no-nonsense live Mirror YouTube show, a hard-hitting podcast and a whole host of fun TikTok episodes to keep you entertained and informed every step of the way:

Poll Position

First up is Poll Position, a live Mirror YouTube show, where host Kevin Maguire dissects the general election’s key moments without the usual dreary spin and propaganda.

Life is too short to waste on dull debates, so here we get straight to the point and laugh at the daftness surrounding election time. New 15 minute episodes will be broadcast every Monday to Thursday at 6pm during the campaign, as well as being simultaneously live streamed on X, formerly known as Twitter.

Kevin will be discussing the day’s biggest moments with expert guests. The show has already covered the explosive £2,000 Tory tax lie and you can watch all-new episodes on the Daily Mirror's YouTube page.

The Division Bell

Next up, you can also listen to our new The Division Bell podcast, hosted by Mirror political editor John Stevens and Express political editor Sam Lister.

Each 20 to 30 minute episode will see John and Sam go head-to-head on a political topic - so listeners can certainly expect a lively discussion! New episodes are available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts and YouTube every Tuesday and Thursday throughout the campaign, with a post-election episode on July 5. The podcast will be lighthearted and funny - yet hard-hitting where it needs to be.

Sophie's Election Spotlight

And finally be sure to follow 'Sophie's Election Spotlight' at Mirror Politics on TikTok, as political correspondent Sophie Huskisson takes us with her wherever she goes in the lead-up to the election. There'll be one episode daily in the run-up to the election.
