Loved the Bertrand Piccard episode! A great podcast.

Great to hear articulate and confident young people talking to some really fascinating people. Our family really liked the Bertrand Piccard one (round the world balloonist). Looking forward to the others.

"Stories change the world"

Have listened to the Deborah Ellis and Lord Puttnam interviews already and both are really enlightening. The student interviewers are remarkably eloquent and thoughtful. I look forward to listening to the others.
