Episode 1X - Crimetown, The Daily, Tom Hanks, Reasons to be cheerful, Plasma, and MORE

Here are our podcast recommendations for the weekend and for Week 4 of the
Lock Down:

We begin with Vic’s first choice:

Crimetown – Season 2

Crimetown explores crime and corruption in the heart of the Rust Belt: Detroit, Michigan. Expect stories of police shootings, the drug trade, and political scandal from a city divided by race.

then my first choice, one of our regular favourites:

The Daily Podcast: Tom Hanks Mr Nice Guy

A really great feel good story by a journalist, about what happened when she met Tom Hanks.

then moving on to Vic’s second choice, which is:

Radiolab WNYC - Dispatch No. 3 -  Shared Immunity

https://www.wnycstudios.org/podcasts/radiolab/articles/dispatch-3-shared-immunity



and my second choice which is:

Reasons to be Cheerful with Ed Miliband and Geoff Lloyd - Episode 132

Which offers advice about the best way one might steer children through difficult times.

Podcasters Ed and Geoff ask educational psychologist Dan O’Hare how to talk to children about Coronavirus and look out for their wellbeing. And they also chat to Headteacher Jayne Kennedy about the work schools are doing for pupils and their families. Then Becky Francis from the Education Endowment Foundation explains how people can minimise the impact on educational inequality.

And to finish, we turn to The Dubliners to see us out with their tune (from the 80's) called "Protect and Survive". You will have to listen to the podcast to find out what that's all about!

Have a lovely weekend, and Keep Safe!

Cheerio,
Vic and Veronika
