Hello Unknown

Like John Green’s Anthropocene Reviewed, Jonathan Wright in “Hello Unknown” combines stories from contemporary culture with his own personal stories to explore universal themes. He delves into the hard work of creativity; learning to live with mystery; the pros and cons of breaking the rules; death; and life after death. Worth the listen. You’ll find yourself thinking about this podcast later as you reflect on your own life’s journey

Just what I wanted! Great storytelling from someone with a lovely way of telling the story. What, he’s Canadian too? Bonus.

Intelligent, introspective, real, vulnerable, thoughtful and thought-provoking: in each episode of the season, Jonathan gently took my hand and led me into a story (or two) from his readings and gleanings of this world, and braided that story (or two) with an even more compelling revelation of what a complicated, surprising and resilient person looks and sounds like, feels and does. That human is him. And quite possibly you’ll recognize yourself in him. Well worth a listen.

I love a good thought provoking podcast, especially one with the courage to be personal, vulnerable, and honest. Mix in a little humour, history, and philosophy and you’ve got a podcast worthy of your full attention. The storytelling in Hello Unknown is rich and intriguing. An invitation to delve deeper into life and all the questions it carries.
