In the last year there has been a rise of podcasts that feature interviews with everyday people, mostly through an anonymous lens, going about their lives. This genius idea by a former BBC journalist features unstructured interviews with a range of people in different jobs, from volunteers at Hackney City Farm, to graffiti writer to a personal trainer. 

The recommendation for this podcast sent in through the Great British Podcasts recommendation feature perfectly encapsulates why. “Amid the rise of the far right, anti immigration populism across Europe and much economic strife, and uncertainty, this podcast feels like a timely reminder, that people regardless of where they come from are searching for meaning in a seemingly indifferent world, to love and be loved.” Hear hear.
