Pitch, Please: George The Poet, Arshy Mann and Allan McLeod tell us about their podcasts

Podcast Playlist

This week, we’re asking three podcasters to pitch their show to listeners, and we’ll hear a sample of each one.

We’re starting with George The Poet. His show is called Have You Heard George’s Podcast? It’s won tons of awards, including a Peabody—and if you haven’t heard it, we promise you’ve never heard another show like it.

Then, Leah sits down with Arshy Mann, host of COMMONS, to talk about why the new season of his show is all about work — the jobs we do, the conditions we work in, and why things feel like they’ve gotten so much harder for working people.

Plus, actor and comedian Allan McLeod will tell us about his new show, Walkin’ About. It’s a loving and funny tribute to the simple act of walking, the places it can take us, and the people we do it with.
