You're about to listen to a BBC podcast and I'd like to tell you a bit about the

podcast I work on. I'm Dan Clark and I commissioned factual podcasts at the BBC.

It's a massive area but I'd sum it up as stories to help us make sense of the forces shaping the world.

What podcasting does is give us the space and the time to take brilliant BBC journalism

and tell amazing compelling stories that really get behind the headlines.

And what I get really excited about is when we find a way of drawing you into a subject

you might not even have thought you were interested in.

Whether it's investigations, science, tech, politics, culture, true crime, the environment,

you can always discover more with a podcast on BBC Sounds.

BBC Sounds, music radio podcasts.

Hello, you've downloaded a podcast of BBC Radio Falls, the food program.

I'm Dan Saladino.

Welcome to our world.

From cooking to culture politics to pleasure we hope

you enjoy this edition

on the outskirts of Liverpool in the main bar of the horse and jockey pub a cooking class is underway.

We made for catcher last week. What did you have it with? The soup, the scouts?

Fabulous. How is the scouts?

During the two-hour session, the group of 10 will learn how to make food budgets go further without adding to energy bills,

all with the help of a book of recipes and a slow cooker. Just a quick reminder that's our 50-P soup.

Use the supermarkets and all of that expensive pre-prepared vegetables that they don't sell and end up as 50 pee a bag, yeah, the 50-piece

soup marches on.
