Hi, Celia Hatton here.
Now, before we Talk all things TikTok, I'm joined by my colleague Katja Adler to tell you about another podcast we're producing here at the BBC World Service.
Katya.
Thanks so much, Celia.
It's called the Global Story, and with our team of journalists from around the world, we take a look at one big news story every weekday and we look at it in detail.
So we've covered Taylor Swift's impact on local economies, for example, as she goes on tour, and we asked whether she could influence the outcome of November's U.S.
presidential election.
There are lots of people who really think she can.
We've looked at electric vehicles as well, and how Tesla has been given a run for its money from China, Chinese carmakers.
And also we take a look at Israel, Gaza from various different perspectives.
We cover human stories as well as geopolitical and economic or cultural ones.
So if you like the sound of what we're doing, search for the Global Story wherever you found this podcast and follow or subscribe so you never miss an episode.
And don't forget to leave us a review.
This is the real story from the BBC.
