Like This, Love This

Hosted by Lucie McInerney, Like This Love This features interesting, fun personalities from all walks of life discussing the stories they love: the books that they always recommend, the ones that changed their lives, carried them through grief, made them laugh time and again, or changed their perception of love, the films they can’t help talking about for years after watching, the podcasts that have educated, elucidated and elevated their understanding of a particular topic & the TV shows they come back to again & again. Insightful, emotive and full of those oh-my-god-I-can't-wait-to-share tales, these are the stories that have shaped THEIR story.
