Recorded my first podcast today! Was a bit terrified (mostly of being🀬) but soon relaxed into a very interesting chat about how we do comms @uofglasgow.bsky.social and the biggest stories of 2024 with @richardwarburton.bsky.social. I have now been bitten by the πŸŽ™οΈ bug and am open to offers πŸ˜€
