    Join Father Simon and the Confessional Collective as they unravel the chaos behind Max's April Fool's prank that left a city in uproar, Lorraine's alarming food fail that sent her brother straight to the hospital, and Max's April Fool day prank that has a town in stitches.

    Apr 18 2025

    What do a cruise convenience calamity, a Chuckle brothers signed program, a washed up coffin and a possessed car have in common? They're all tangled up in this week's mischievous confessions!

    This week's episode features Colin's escapades with fellow students car. Then there's Redrock's tale, featuring a well made coffin that went in the river and washed up down the coast, leaving people to wonder what happened to contents. Meanwhile Gordon (or should that be Graham?!) is forging the signatures of a comical duo and over on the cruise ship the 'Big Shiny' Johnny Boy is having some toilet trouble.

    In the Not For Broadcast Section there is a relationship revenge. Plus, the team chat chocolate feelings, and coughing fits!

    Buckle up - It's going to be a good one. Have your own confession? - email it to confession@greatesthits.co.uk

    Apr 11 2025

    From a swimming pool prank, to a missing cat, clairvoyant chaos and a gardener getting caught short, this week's confessions serve up another round of mischief, mishaps, and morally questionable decisions from a new generation of sinners as they seek redemption with Father Simon and the Confessional Collective!

    The Not for Broadcast section involves a toothbrush and a rude hand gesture. There's also talk of podcast prison, showering behaviour and Matt is actually right about something.

    Brace yourself for an episode packed with laughter, gasps and moments you wont forget.

laughing gas and confessions

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

Bring back Confessions From The Crypt

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!!

A very warm welcome back!

I am so glad this podcast is back. Gutted when it wrapped up a few years ago and my Friday/ Saturdays were not the same. I was extatic when it saw this, been following ever since. I've even signed up my wife!! Thank you for coming back, Simon's voice and Matt's laugh

6 stars and more…..

Mat is ace, holly is brilliant, the team are fantastic and Simon is the bestest especially when he does his accent’s, this podcast is my favourite and I eagerly wait for Friday to indulge in the stories of other peoples mishaps and adventures. If there was a button for 6+ stars I’d press it. Keep up the awesome work.

Best PODCASTS EVER!!!

I enjoy listening to Simon Mayo’s confessions. It’s the highlight of my week after a long week at work always hilariously funny with the stories that are told. Brother Matthew always forgiving and also with his infectious laugh has me in hysterics. Keep up the great work. Best Wishes Tom Carter from Bodmin

looking forward to hearing some confessions

I would be picking up my husband from work, and I would hear the confessions and the banter. At times, I would be laughing so much when my hubby came out
I am looking forward to hearing some more 😊
