The BBC's investigation on the Diary of a CEO

Steven Bartlett, the host of the Diary of a CEO podcast, faces scrutiny for allowing misinformation to spread unchecked. The show’s guests have made unsubstantiated health claims, including linking certain diets to curing serious illnesses. Such content risks undermining professional medical advice, leaving listeners unsure whom to trust. Without clear advertising and disclosure guidelines, podcast content remains largely unregulated, highlighting the need for a better understanding of who is accountable when misleading claims reach large audiences.
