In Canadaland's COMMONS feed at the moment: an English translation of Radio France's award-winning podcast Inside Kabul - the story of two young Afghan women, Raha and Marwa, whose lives are forever changed when the Taliban comes to power. Over the course of a year, Raha and Marwa exchange and record hundreds of voice notes with noted journalist Caroline Gillet. What emerges is a raw and incredibly intimate chronicle of two young women coming of age amidst the collapse of the world they had known. It's the first show that Canadaland has licensed in this way.

Between 1960 and 1980, thousands of Pakistani families would communicate between Pakistan and the UK using cassette recordings - which have since been stored in attics, suitcases and garages across the UK. As part of South Asian Heritage Month, Tape Letters has been released by Modus Arts - transcribing and presenting some of these cassettes, and interviews with the people who had received them.
