  • Introducing... The Positive News Podcast

    Happy Monday everyone! A new week... time for a new podcast? We all need a bit of positivity at the moment, and we have the perfect new show we think you'll enjoy. It's called The Positive News Podcast, and we wanted to share one of their episodes with you. More info on the pod below, you know the drill, check them out and give them a follow wherever you get your podcasts!


    The Positive News Podcast brings you the good news that matters. In our opening six-part series, Developing Mental Wealth, we uncover the fascinating ways that communities are supporting people’s mental health in parts of the world where circumstances can be the most challenging. Hosted by medical doctor Radha Modgil and journalist Seyi Rhodes.

    Radha and Seyi are back on the African continent this week, in Johannesburg. They travel to South Africa’s biggest city to learn about a narrative therapy technique called the Tree of Life, which has been so successful it’s now used in more than 40 countries.

    They meet the creator of the Tree of Life approach, Ncazelo Ncube-Mlilo, who founded an organisation called Phola, and a woman whose life she changed forever, Winny Mangani.

  • Things People Did, with Karl Porter: You'll never eat Travelodge eggs again

    We're back at the Clapham Grand with another live episode of Things People Did. Our guest today is comedian Karl Porter, who you will undoubtedly recognise after he shot to fame with a viral slo-mo goal celebration stand up, which pretty much broke the internet. He's here to tell us all about his days working in a Travelodge, The Warehouse Project, and as a binman, before he made it in comedy. And, we obviously got him to do a slo-mo Joe Marler, which was excellent.
