Today’s episode is the first one we’ve ever filmed. We’ve released the video on YouTube. We don’t often ask for things from you, but we’d appreciate as many subscriptions to our YouTube channel as we can manage. It’ll let us know if this colossal effort is worth it in the future. We have a slightly slower, more awkward start because this is the first for us. Please bear with us; we relax into it after a while. In our first ‘in-person-pod’, we discuss learning as a mature student. Dan has accepted a place for a BA in Photojournalism and Documentary Photography. We talk about Dan’s motives and feelings about the move and whether going to university as a mature student is worth the time and money. And, of course, we wander off-topic more times than we realise.
