Best podcasts during lockdown

Podcasts I've enjoyed so far in 2020

There are so many awesome podcast series, it's often really hard for me to decide which one to listen to - no joke, I get full on FOMO anxiety when picking one over another, but I've learned to take one at a time, and listen from the start as if it were a television series.

Here are a few super interesting ones. I'm going to keep adding to this list as the year goes on, so do check back!

• Explore the Circular Economy by The Ellen MacArthur Foundation

This podcast is a little more practical, looking at how we can improve and create effective systems, design, building and engineering for economic properity through a more regenerative framework. Think products, business and the economy, and then imagine people talking about how all these are being looked at as we move to more circular economy solutions. These ones are super short, so easy to fit in to your schedule, however busy you are, and picks up on new innovation from all over the world so you get a good feel for what's going on in industries you might not be so involved in.

• The Guilty Feminist

This one is nothing to do with the environment, but I couldn't write a list of podcasts and not mention this one. Before the lockdown, I listened to this one in the morning on the way to work. Think of it as a better version of Loose Women (do people know that show - on ITV?) . It's funny, fairly light hearted and features guests like Jameela Jamil, and always starts with reasons why the hosts may not have been the 'best version of a feminist' that week. It's a fun start to the show that always relaxes me and reinforces that idea that expectations of women are so insanely high, and it is okay to not be perfect.
