Your Daily Show Anuradha Yaduvanshi and Himanshu Sankhala We have many podcasts online which are related to crime, trading, relationships, sports and what not but have you ever heard of a podcast which gives reviews on series or movies? You might have but very few of them exist. Here we are, who have come up with one such podcast which shall provide you reviews on various genres of series and movies.One day, my friend Himanshu and I (Anuradha) were randomly talking about podcasts and realised that there are nil to a very few podcasts which are for series and movies. So we quickly thought why don't we start a podcast which gives reviews on various genres of series and movies which help people to get to know if the series or the movie is worth the watch or not. We knew it would be difficult at first but once we go ahead, we'll be happy with our step taken. There are many platforms which rate series and movies but sometimes they don't satisfy the customers. So here we are, trying our best and giving you honest reviews on the series. We Voices of Your Village Seed & Sew Let's get real, this whole raising tiny humans thing is wild. That's why I created a place where parents, caregivers, teachers, and experts come together to create the modern parenting village. We can support one another on this crazy journey so it doesn't have to be this hard. FOOTPRINT+ podcasts FOOTPRINT+ We bring the smartest minds in the property carbon-reduction world to FOOTPRINT, so we think it’s only right for us to disseminate all this experience and knowledge freely. Most of what you hear here won’t have been spoken about before; it’s all hot-off-the-press! If you were at FOOTPRINT+ 2025, you can hear all the talks you couldn’t get to while you were in another of our 6 theatres; and if you weren’t, now is your chance to learn why you need to be at FOOTPRINT+ 2026 (and it’s all CPD-approved). K-Talk Therapy K Talk Now Hi my name is Kendall. Welcome to K-Talk Now! A place where we can hang out and talk. In my new limited-series podcast, K-Talk Therapy™, we chat about our mental health, a subject I’m very passionate about since I know so many of us are going through anxious times right now and it’s easy to feel like you’re alone. We’ll hear from experts in the field: the psychiatrists, psychologists, therapists, coaches, authors, and our most important guests: you, our listeners. We’ll also hear from celebrities who have come forward with their mental health issues. They want us to know we’re not alone in our struggles and my goal, along with theirs, is to save lives. I feel that if we have saved just one life through our talking and hanging out together, then I will have succeeded because you belong here. I lost my uncle through suicide, and I don’t know one person who hasn’t been affected by it, one way or another. Helping each other through the tough moments in our lives is why we’re connected
