Where Are You Going?

Loftus Mediashows.acast.com

Catherine Carr stops strangers to ask them “Where Are You Going?” and uncovers unexpected stories about people’s lives.

---

Named 'Podcast of the Year' by Radio Times and picked as 'Best Podcasts of the Year 2023' by the Financial Times, Observer, Pod Bible and The Week.


The conversations that follow are always unpredictable: sometimes funny, sometimes heart-breaking, silly, romantic or occasionally downright ‘stop-you-in-your-tracks’ surprising. Catherine’s been travelling and recording since 2014.


Be transported to places around the world and into the lives of others: You just never know what story is coming next…


We'll publish new episodes every Tuesday.
