Hello, Anna Richardson here. I just thought I'd leave you a quick voice note to tell you

0:06.6

about my new advice podcast. It can't just be me.

0:12.8

I'll be getting super honest about my own topsy-turvy life, as well as helping you solve

0:18.0

your life dilemmas with the support of some very special guests and experts.

From Podimo and Mags Created, it can't just be me, wherever you get your podcasts.

from the left, though. I was pretty sure it was going to be from the right.

1:22.8

You can't even watch a two-hour film before chiming in. If that's too much energy

for you to do, then you are not a journalist. You are an activist that writes.

1:32.8

You're not a documentarian. You're an activist with a camera.

1:36.8

If there's something in the film that is factually inaccurate, then we fucked up.
