    Lucas Jones on Grief, Ghosts & What Happens After We Die

    Break Clause actor and poet Lucas Jones joins Harriet to talk death, grief, the afterlife and the signs from beyond that are almost impossible to explain. Lucas has one belief he can’t shake: death is a myth. But what does he actually mean by that - and can experiencing loss completely change the way you look at being alive? From losing a childhood friend to a mysterious voicemail that appeared months after someone died, Lucas and Harriet share the experiences that have made them question what really happens when we die. Harriet also opens up about losing her dad at 17 — and one unexplained moment that has stayed with her ever since. And because this is By The Way, things take a turn. Lucas reveals the childhood identity he nearly adopted, a honeymoon encounter that may have uncovered a long-lost relative, and the bizarre school experience that changed how he saw himself. Plus, Harriet makes a confession about her teenage years that explains… quite a lot. Content warning: This episode contains conversations about death, grief and bereavement, including the loss of a parent and a friend in a motorcycle accident. It also contains discussions of sex and sexual experiences, including references to teenage experiences, and strong language.

    Nicola Thorp on OCD, Maternity Leave & Investigating Mohamed Al-Fayed

    Content note: This episode contains discussions of sexual assault and mental health. Please listen with care and skip any sections that aren’t right for you Nicola Thorp is a broadcaster, journalist and campaigner, dubbed the “Vigilante in Pink” for taking conversations directly to the people she disagrees with. This week, Nicola joins Harriet for a conversation that goes from OCD and motherhood to Mohamed Al-Fayed and the far right - with quite a few unexpected detours along the way. Nicola and Harriet get candid about living with intrusive thoughts, the moments when your own brain becomes impossible to trust, and what happened when motherhood brought Nicola’s experience to a whole new level.  Then, by the way… Nicola can drive a boat, but not a car. Harriet has questions. Lots of them. And five years of living on a canal boat provides some answers she probably wasn’t prepared for. Things take a turn when Nicola opens up about her investigation into Mohamed Al-Fayed - and why she believes what happened can’t be explained by looking at one man alone. And then there’s the “Vigilante in Pink.” Why does Nicola willingly walk into far-right protests and start conversations with people who fundamentally disagree with her? And what happens when one of those conversations goes very wrong?
