Episode 1: Mind The Gap
A new collection of original monologues to kick off season 2! Join host Daniella Down and co-host Sairah Erens on an audio adventure. In this episode, we journey around the world and into many different walks of life. From a self-proclaimed street prophet philosophising on the bus to a nostalgic journey about lost love and broken promises on the London underground to a commuter on the Hong Kong metro who questions whether the whole of humanity has substituted technology for common sense. It’s a wild ride for you this episode. Let the storytelling journey begin!
