Theo – A Mile in My Shoes
"Imagine walking in flesh that people generally agree is dangerous flesh to walk in."
Our podcast is where we share audio stories from our various projects, including A Mile in My Shoes and From Where I’m Standing. From a dairy farmer in Worcestershire to a sexual healer in Melbourne, these short episode open up a space to hear from someone you might never have come across in your daily life.
You’ll also find a scattering of audio collaborations we’ve done with others – we’re really proud to be a part of their stories and have a space to share them.
Please be aware that some stories are more appropriate for adult listeners. Captioned versions of the first 40 episodes are available on our YouTube.
