Stories. Songs. Seasons.

by Tom Shiels

We’re all made of stories, but they’re not always profound. It’s something your grandad told you. A song that takes you back to a road trip. The smell of smoke in the air in autumn or a saying that still pops into your head at the strangest times. Often, the smallest moments are where memories are made. In Stories. Songs. Seasons. the podcast, writer Tom Shiels sits down with a new guest every episode to talk about three stories that have shaped them, three songs that have moved them. And the season which most feels like home.
