Fi Glover presents conversations about babies, Christmas and loved ones remembered in the Sunday Edition of the Radio 4 series proving it's surprising what you hear when you listen. The conversations come from Leeds, Liverpool, Manchester, Wales and from the other side of the Atlantic, courtesy of StoryCorps, the American enterprise on which The Listening Project is based.
The Listening Project is a Radio 4 initiative that offers a snapshot of contemporary Britain in which people across the UK volunteer to have a conversation with someone close to them about a subject they've never discussed intimately before. The conversations are being gathered across the UK by teams of producers from local and national radio stations who facilitate each encounter. Every conversation - they're not 成人论坛 interviews, and that's an important difference - lasts up to an hour, and is then edited to extract the key moment of connection between the participants. Many of the long conversations are being archived by the British Library and used to build up a collection of voices capturing a unique portrait of the UK in the second decade of the millennium. You can upload your own conversations or just learn more about The Listening Project by visiting bbc.co.uk/listeningproject
