Before you listen to this BBC podcast I want to tell you why I love podcasting.

Hi my name's Tommy Dixon and I make podcast for the BBC. I'm a big fan of stories

always loved a good book but when I started commuting for my first job, I discovered

podcasts. I was blown away about how a creative idea and the right mixture of sounds

could take you into a whole new world full of incredible stories. You know, the type that

make you go, wow. And that kind of inspired me to give it a go myself,

which to cut a long story short led to a BBC training scheme and a whole new career given other people that exact same feeling. So if you want to hear

amazing stories that make you go wow like I did, they're just a tap or a click away

on BBC Sounds.
