hey Matt, just wanted to say what an absolute gem of a podcast you have , really well done !! The first I watched was the one with Nadine as I know her and her gorgeous family. I worked for a Hull homeless charity for 14 years so obviously knew Renew when it set up on Bev Rd - amazing organisation . How amazing that you’ve managed to get celebrities on , which will be brilliant for propelling the show. The local lasses are always a winner for me though .. much love and good luck moving forward , Sal 🙂
