  • The Loss of Human Contact

    As the UK takes the first steps back to normality, and not the new-normal but the normal we knew before 2020. It is important to remember what we went through, what was done to us, the stories that were told and those that didn’t get a chance to be heard.

      Welcome to Let's Talk

      My name is Jonty and I will be your host

      The main aim of this podcast will be to invite interesting people on to talk about their passion. To see who they are as a person and how they came to be who they are today.

      I'm sure during the course of this podcast their will be views and opinions that people will not agree with.

      This is okay and, in fact, encouraged.

      Life would be boring if we were all the same.

      Now get comfortable.

      Relax.

      And Let's Talk
