Human Resources is a three-part podcast series by poet and theatre-maker Hannah Jane Walker, exploring the simple complicated task of being a person. Each episode poses a question that seems too simple to ask: How do we deal with our mistakes? Is friendship fundamental to our survival? How do we keep breathing through a crisis? Through storytelling, documentary and poetry, Hannah and her collaborators open up a space of care and creative challenge in which they invite their listeners to consider the unlikely sources of potential resource in their own lives, and how they might use them a little differently.
Sound design by Hana Walker-Brown. Artist welfare practitioner — Lou Platt. Outside eye — Ross Sutherland. Episode 3 commissioned by Cambridge Junction as part of HOME Manchester's Homemakers series 2020. Supported by Arts Council England.

The first episode of the series explores fucking up, with theatre maker Chris Thorpe. In 2011, Hannah and Chris made a show together called The Oh Fuck Moment – a show about how we culturally handle mistakes, asking audiences to celebrate them instead. In 2014, Hannah and Chris made a series of mistakes that fucked up their working relationship. This episode asks, how do you get back into a room together, even if you believe the other to be wrong? This episode asks what kind of mistake-maker you might be.
