What is the reality of going undercover with some of the world's most dangerous gangs? In this episode of Tea At Four, hosts Lauren and Christie sit down with award-winning investigative journalist and documentary presenter Tir Dhondy to uncover the shocking, behind-the-scenes truth of criminal organisations.

From surviving death threats and having a SWAT team kick her door down, to sitting in a car with a machete-wielding Rolex thief, Tir shares the heavy, unfiltered realities of her career.

We dive into her undercover work in Ayia Napa exposing modern slavery and sexual harassment, the dangerous logistics of British drug mules smuggling weed out of Thailand, and how her team traced a high-stakes sextortion scam all the way to Lagos, Nigeria.

We also discuss what it is genuinely like to navigate a high-risk, male-dominated industry as a female journalist, how criminals are disarmed by women, and why the future of investigative journalism is shifting directly to digital spaces like YouTube.

What are the sides to grief that nobody talks about? Lauren and Christie find out this week on Tea At Four. Nicky joins us to share her experience of losing her husband, and how her grief changed her reality. She tells us about 'Widow's Fire', why grief makes you crave you life, and how she turned this experience into a dating app for widows. In a completely candid chat, we break the taboo on intimacy after death, sex life in your 50's, and being aware of your dead partner watching you have fun...You can find Nicky at @nickywakewidow, and if you looking for dating help after loss be sure to look into WidowsFire and Chapter 2.If you want to suggest a guest for us to have on Tea At Four, let us know at @teaatfour@junglecreations.com, or DM us on Insta @teaatfourpod x

What really happens behind the red lights of one of Europe’s biggest legal brothels?

This week on Tea At Four, Billy and Lauren sit down with Catherine De Noir, a psychology graduate turned manager of a massive, 100-room "ethical" brothel. From the strict “8-Second Rule” that keeps every woman safe, to the mind-blowing reality that top earners are making €50,000 per month, Catherine pulls back the curtain on an industry shrouded in stigma.
