Customer Reviews
A ray of light
There is a lot going on in the world at the moment and to read the news would suggest that we’ll be lucky to make it to Friday. Hope is a Verb, and their newsletter Futurecrunch, are on a mission to illuminate the other side of the coin - they basically show how we are working to make the world a better place. Every episode of this podcast felt like a warm shower after a cold ride. Humanity at its best - frequently faced with the opposite - rising to confront the odds and bring change to the world. Every. Single. Episode. But don’t take it from a review - give yourself a dose of good stuff! Pop on the headphones, head out for a walk and listen to the incredible things people are doing in the world - because there’s a lot going on in the world at the moment, and a lot of it is incredible.
Adding more goodness to my week!
I’m already a paid subscriber of Future Crunch and look forward to that hit of good news every week. This podcast has just made my week even more hopeful 😍
Afghanistan
