Before this BBC podcast kicks off, I'd like to tell you about some others you might enjoy.
My name's Will Wilkin, and I commission music podcasts for the BBC.
It's a really cool job.
Every day we get to tell the incredible stories behind songs, moments and movements.
Stories of struggle and success, rises and falls, the funny, the ridiculous.
And the BBC's position at the heart of british music means we can tell those stories like no one else.
We were, are, and always will be right there at the center of the narrative.
So whether you want an insightful take on music right now or a nostalgic deep dive into some of the most famous and infamous moments in music, check out the music podcasts on BBC sounds.
Hello, it's Hannah Fry here, and I am just dropping in your ears to let you know that my new series for BBC Radio Four, Uncharted Tales of data and discovery, is out now.
So for the next 15 minutes, I'm going to take over this feed to give you just a little taste of the podcast.
Enjoy.
The first episode.
The sun hangs low in the sky.
A soft strain of jazz swells in the air, mingling with the gentle rustle of leaves and the breeze.
Chris, our protagonist, stands tall under a canopy of flowers, his blue eyes twinkling in the golden late light of a summer's day.
But Chris is nervous.
His heart is racing.
And then, all of a sudden, there she is.
Time seems to slurry and flex as the woman he loves walks towards him.
In that moment, it dawns on him.
