Refreshing perspectives, slices of life, from the soul. Words to inspire and surprise. A space to come together with courage, compassion and curiosity. A place to know you are not alone. It's time for soul, not scroll.

The Trawl Podcast

By Sean Adams

A weekly summary of the most damning and funny goings on in the political Twittersphere.

This is a right hoot! A fantastic way to catch up with all that's going on in the world of politics with two very feisty women who are raging, rambunctious and rather well read!

Kathleen Stock

Mostly devoted to clawing feminism back from the idiots that ruined it. Some other things too.

Simple, I adore Kathleen and her work is brilliant. She's an immensely strong and brave woman, has stood strong despite years of abuse both online and at work, and not once wavered from what she believes. A philosopher, hero and complete sense speaker.
