April 07, 2021 Mad World, with Charlie Mackesy
After the year we've all just had, we wanted to give you a taster of our newest podcast. It's a brand new series of Mad World with Bryony Gordon - and if you liked If I Can Do It, we think you'll like this too.
Each episode features an intimate conversation about mental health with guests from household names to nurses on the frontline, because mental health deserves to be talked about.
In a sea of beauty hacks, home inspo and brunch snaps, Bryony Gordon's first guest of this new series of Mad World might seem an unlikely Instagram star. But artist Charlie Mackesy’s poignant and heartfelt illustrations have taken the platform by storm - and have earned him over a million followers.
His debut book, The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse, is billed as a vehicle for ‘hope in uncertain times’, and after a year of true uncertainty, he tells The Telegraph's Bryony Gordon that giving that glimmer of hope to his readers is worth more than any plaudits.
Plus Charlie talks about how he’s struggling to feel connected to others, why he sees drawing as a form of therapy, and how grief for a lost friend reared its head in an unusual form as a teenager. And if the conversation doesn't leave you feeling just that little bit calmer, the soothing sounds of nature outside Charlie's barn certainly will.

April 08, 2020 Mad World, with Katy and Natalie
During this strange time, we wanted to give you a taster of our newest podcast. It's a brand new series of Mad World with Bryony Gordon - and if you liked If I Can Do It, we think you'll like this too.
Each episode features an intimate conversation about mental health with guests from household names to nurses on the frontline. Because even when you’re isolating - you are not alone.
In the first episode we meet infection prevention nurse Natalie Mounter and mental health nurse Katy Lowe, who know just what it's like to face a pandemic.
They tell Bryony Gordon how working in Sierra Leone during the 2014 Ebola outbreak taught them the importance of team support, avoiding burnout and why they feel the burden of being called 'superheroes'.
