About Lifeboats: The father and daughter saving lives for the RNLI

We have not one, but two guests on the show this week! John and Lily are father and daughter, who both selflessly give up their lives to volunteer for the RNLI. They are constantly on call to answer their pagers (yes, they still exist in 2023), suit up and head out to sea to rescue people on lifeboats... sometimes mid-roast dinner, which comes with its own roast potato related dilemmas. They rescue people from place crashes, sinking yachts and many other dangerous situations. The passion they have for lifeboats is infectious, and the passion John has for crocs footwear is something else entirely...

Joe Marler used to hate people, but then he met Tom Fordyce, and a load of ordinary people doing extraordinary things, and a podcast was born that changed his mind forever. It might just change your life too.

Because everyone is interesting if you ask the right questions. And this is a show about all the weird and wonderful things people do.

Together, Joe and Tom meet astronauts, teachers, marine biologists, cheesemakers, prison guards and everyone in between. Along the way, they’ve learned things that have blown their minds, heard stories that have made them laugh until it hurts, and – well, felt a whole lot better about the world around them and the people that fill it.
