Wow.

I started this podcast kinda by accident, as this episode explains. And with your support and encouragement, I’ve now made fifty episodes!

Thank you so much. This means a lot to me now … again, as this episode explains.

So now I need some great ideas for the next fifty episodes, and the fifty after that, and so on! Who should I be listening to? Who would you like to hear in conversation? Where could I go for Bench? Or for soundscapes? Which events should I go to, with my super-discreet, unobtrusive recording kit?

Thank you again. This is helping heal my mind and my heart. I hope it helps you, too.

Discussion about this podcast

Hello You with Jim Hawkins

I’m trying to give you something a little different. Hello You is about stuff, and things. People, and stories. Shrewsbury, and Shropshire. Mental health and well-being. History and heritage. Arts, culture and music. Faith, belief and the complexities of life.

I’m a good listener. It’s what I do. And for Hello You, I’m listening to (and talking with) fascinating people, mostly but not always from Shropshire, so that you can hear what they have to say.

It's public-service local journalism that cares about people. Audio that brings you the voices of people you might not hear from otherwise. Interviews conducted with compassion and empathy. Thoughtful, positive, good-humoured conversations, informed local storytelling, and commentary that’s not afraid to get righteously angry on occasion.
