100NO 462: What happen to the human interest stories? Are we being dumbed down?

Episode Summary

With so much of our news feed – be it on television, radio, print or online – dominated by COVID, is it possible that we are being dumbed down by such a narrow ingest of information?

After a conversation with an upcoming guest on 100 Not Out, we wonder whether we’re missing out on some inspiring stories of incredible people due to the triage of resources (especially by media companies) being directed to COVID stories instead of human interest stories.

Whilst we’re at it, if you’ve come across some incredible people doing marvellous things in their life, please send them to us and we’ll interview them on the poodcast!
