    Good Conversations Ep 11: The Impact of Fast Fashion with MK Jorgenson

    In this episode we talk to homeschooling mother and author with MK Jorgenson, about her recently-released book The Wardrobe Fast: How Cheap Clothes Ruin Lives (and How We Can Do Better). It’s an engaging short book written from a Christian perspective, but full of things that people can agree on and take on board regardless of their faith, and so is this episode.

    Episode 2: "Catholic Social Teaching as a non-Catholic"

    In this episode, our host Alessia Cesana is speaking to Cllr Richard Harris, who is a volunteer with Good Works and an Anglican, about the impact of Catholic Social Teaching on his career. Touching upon his past as a Disability Officer for the Student Union of the University of Derby as well as his present work for a major retail company, this episode provides an insight in what it's like to be part of an organisation that is dedicated to something that has Catholic in the name, as a Protestant.

    Episode 1: "An introduction to Catholic Social Teaching"

    In this episode, our host Alessia Cesana is speaking to Dr Maria Power, academic and one of Good Works' trustees about the history of Catholic Social Teaching and what it is all about, in a lighthearted and relatable way. Brining together a self-described stereotypical millennial and a generation X-er over a cup of tea in a kitsch tearoom (please forgive the background noise!), this episode doesn't fail to inform as well as entertain.
