Excellent content. The sound quality can be dreadful - listening with AirPods had the interviewer in one ear and the person being interviewed in the other. Made the episode impossible to listen to. Please get the recording balance right.

In other words, I absolutely loved it. People’s strength and struggles are inspiring, and so eye opening - a reminder that we are all dealing with something and we need to go through life with compassion. I wish I’d had this during my own injury experience, it might have helped me to push through...Read full review »

These episodes are captivating and compelling. Though some parts are difficult to hear, I’m grateful for the real-life stories that hold my attention. Thanks to the skillful host and courageous guests willing to share their stories.

This is despicable. She tries to minimise the effects of ecstasy and said it was the tiredness that caused the crash. She also lied to police about the amount she took. Toxicology showed just how much she actually took during the day leading up to the crash after blood tests. Please read the news...Read full review »

Such a moving and wonderfully produced podcast. Thank you. Presenter too. I was moved to tears......Blink once: What a wonderful and amazing person. Speechless, for her strength and courage.

I feel that the latest series with Dr Sian Williams is even more moving than before. I didn’t think that was possible. The inner strength and determination of people reliving their life changing moments is simply astonishing.

Keiran- what an inspiring story. His terrifying and traumatic experience and then hearing his journey from the trauma, then his physical recovery to then hitting rock bottom, despite his positive attitude. He is making such a positive contribution to society through his understanding of how the...Read full review »

I am a fan of this program! I was searching for a podcast with interesting personal stories. This one delivers that and a whole lot more!

Usually love this podcast but this episode just did not ring true for me.

Wow what a human she puts the UK system inhumane tactics to shame I love to meet this lady as her journey through her mental torture is jaw dropping What a lady bravo I love to work with her

The last story ‘ripple effect’. I think the subject may have recently finished a short fiction writing course. In years gone by you would have seen this in Readers Digest. Reckon she might be angling for tv interest.

It is good to hear someone who has proper empathy and skill at interviewing people who have been through such complex emotional journals. I often felt uncomfortable with Jane Garvey’s approach, nothing awful, just not someone who i felt genuinely connected with the experiences of the person or...Read full review »

‘Normal people’ telling their story. Refreshing in a world of celebrity. Very good interviewee. Worthy of a listen.
Alioooo via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/02/22
30 minute stories of ordinary people who have lived through extraordinary experiences - I often find myself thinking about them days after listening to the episodes.
Alisouthampton via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/22/22
There is something so incredibly calming about this podcast. I have so enjoyed each and every guest for sharing their stories reminding us what it is to be human
felicity_london via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/19/22
This is one of those podcasts you can’t binge, but have to listen to each episode spaced out so you can have room to feel all the feelings each episode gives you. Every episode is at turns sweet and heartbreaking and wonderful. Love this podcast.
Xbound24 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/12/22
Jane, your voice and this podcast are my favourites. Are you planning a new series? I really hope so!🙏🏻❤️
RoxyTran2020 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/10/22
Fighting back tears listening to this episode. What an emotional story - Steve tells it so well and sounds like the sort of big brother anyone would be proud to have.
Wishy1 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/15/22
This season was so great, more please! These are amazing people and so worth hearing from. Jane truly does an awesome job getting their stories out.

Absolutely love this podcast, uplifting, inspiring & just so enjoyable. Great to hear more of Jane Garvey. Particularly loved the episode with the wonderful Welsh man & the incredible Moss who evacuated the cruise ship, an astonishing story that I found myself repeating to a friend!

I’ve always like Jane Garvey and this show is really interesting. The guests are varied and the interaction between them and Jane fun to listen to
Suzanne Mountain via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/16/22
So easy to listen too. Discovering these have helped me during my difficult hospital stay following a stroke . Being in hospital on a busy noisy medical ward makes me unable to concentrate on anything, I have many hobbies and love reading, but I have been unable . These podcasts have been my...Read full review »

One of the best out there… Please please please make more🥰🙏🏼
Cedararbutus via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/10/22
Wow - I have loved listening to these stories - so interesting. Jane is just dreadful- surely you can get a better interviewer? She presses guests on points that they clearly don’t want to talk about. Would be five out of five with a better interviewer.
live&lovetoeat via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 01/24/22
Really interesting and inspiring. Love you Jane, really miss you on woman’s hour. Hope you do more podcasts :)
LShieldsy via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/13/22
This is such a good podcast, I’m gripped can’t wait for the next episode. Amazing true stories about real life situations. The host shows such compassion & carries out the interviews beautifully. Great please keep them coming.

Great to hear more of JG. Great interviewer. Great stories.
ALM1078 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 12/14/21
The would give this podcast 5 stars - but I agree with some other reviewers about the lack of compassion by the host. I wish that the she would show some warmth to the guests as they share their harrowing stories.
Oones# via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 11/14/21
I really enjoy this podcast, a real gem of a listen. Jane Garvey is a wonderful host, the right balance of kindness, curiosity and humour, I like her style of communication with the guests. The stories brought by the guests go to show our daily battles and triumphs in life. I’m so glad I found...Read full review »

I love this podcast, amazing real-life stories. Just listened to Jon Godsall’s account of his time in Iraq - absolutely harrowing but so glad that’s he’s finally able to tell his story and really hope it helps him come to terms with what happened.
missclairee1974 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/26/21
Brilliant and multitalented Jane asking and listening to extraordinary ordinary people we can all relate to and yet we are left godsmacked at their courage…
beanburgers via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/20/21
Absolutely loved listening to these real life stories and inspirational people. I particularly enjoyed Grace’s story and I so admire her strength and positivity. PLEASE PLEASE do many more of these as they are fantastic and are my favourite pod cast now. Love you Jane

I love these interviews. Fascinating stories. I don’t know how you found them… And I love JG!

Sick and tired of the whole celebrity thing, this is real. Great podcast, keep ‘em coming Jane!

Loved listening to real people’s stories, and getting their insights. Hoping for more episodes!
