May 26, 2021 Episode 6: The Tip of the Iceberg
We can't believe it, series 1 of WJWU is done! We thought it would be nice to reflect on the whole experience of creating this platform and what we have learnt from our amazing guests! We also want to show the human side of things as joy in social change is super important, so stick around until the end for what is probably too many bloopers from 6 episodes.
We would LOVE to hear from you about what you've enjoyed or learnt about the series, how we can improve, or if you'd like to get involved. Follow us on Instagram @justwarminguppod and send us a message!
