Chernobyl
Ist good
Really interesting!
When is the next travel podcast coming out of this series???
Edgelands.
A compelling, moving and sensitively produced series, excellently presented by Greg Dickinson.
Ash brings to us, the reality of the impact on the lives of the people of these Edgelands, during and following the Soviet occupation.
Ash’s interest in the people of these countries is expressed with empathy and understanding. His manner and communicating skills bringing out the best in what are, sometimes quite tricky situations!
Looking forward to Ash’s next podcast series!
