A lot of legal decisions in this country are made by magistrates, volunteers like you and me,

working as a team to make decisions on cases in criminal or family courts with support from legal advisors.

You don't need specific qualifications or experience. I'm an

electrician myself, but you could be anything, a teacher, a delivery driver,

unemployed. With ongoing support you will learn new skills, enjoy new challenges and help create positive

change for your community. Volunteer at I can be a Magistrate.co.uk. Okay. Hello, hi and welcome to another episode of the Emma Gunn's show. I am your host,

Emma Gunn Awardner, and in this episode my beloved Christmas pod, which was

episode number 25 in this

the series meaning it's Christmas day if you're listening in real time.

Why? Because on Christmas day what I'm normally doing is cooking

and I can't keep my attention on a film and the radio maybe doesn't keep my attention either

so I thought well I'll just put some snippets about conversations from the last few years

with some of my favorite guests onto an episode, maybe there's a bit of a chuckle

along the way and it can just keep you company whether you're peeling sprouts or making a gravy,

or if you're not listening to this during Christmas potting you might actually get an introduction to some of the guests who if you're new if you've only just discovered the podcast

you might get a sense of some of the conversations that we've had previously and obviously I'm going to start with one of my favorite conversations and actually it was the beginning of our first time ever together on tape. It's Caroline Hyrans and Caroline and I met through rock music. We met at a Motley crew concert. That's how we properly got to know each other. And so this conversation from her first appearance on the

podcast ages ago now, she must come back, is us talking about, is us talking about

rock concerts, sexual awakening at rock concerts, live music, the

playlist that we make to keep us company, whether we're working, whether we're exercising,

whatever we're doing, a road trip.

And it's just a bit of a giggle.

So here she is.
