! and i love how author Dani Shapiro's 'Family Secrets' podcast is shedding light on those hidden truths, it's so relatable 
the way Adam screws up words is actually quite funny, but also a bit cringeworthy at times 
. The BBC one about the charity scams does seem pretty interesting though... how did they get caught out? 
. Has anyone else checked out 'How to Be an Actor and Not Lose Your Sh*t'? I'm thinking of taking my kid to watch one of those theatre shows soon... might just inspire her to get into acting herself! 
The way comedian Kayvan Novak brings back his art critic character in 'The Brian Badonde Bodcast' is genius 
What makes you think people keep secrets from their families? Is it because they're scared or something? 
. And the BBC's investigative podcast 'World of Secrets' sounds so important 
, especially when it comes to charity schemes.
. I'm curious about how they're using sound to tell stories at this historic venue in London. Have you guys been there? What was your experience like? 
. And I love how 'War Hall' combines history and sound to create this immersive experience... it's all about finding meaning in the little things, you know? Sometimes we have to listen to a few stories before we can really understand what's going on in our own lives 
! It's so great to see creators pushing boundaries and exploring different topics in such a fun and engaging way 
. I'm so impressed by Simi Jolaoso's investigative reporting - she's a true inspiration 
. And have you guys tried 'War Hall: A Theatre of the Mind'? It's like stepping back in time to this historic venue 
. Overall, these podcasts are a must-listen for anyone looking for entertainment, education, and a dash of social commentary
