The Listen is a weekly conversation between friends and colleagues, Abi Gibson and Charlie Perry, who share their observations and overanalysis of pop culture, current affairs, and their own lives. Think of it as a nostalgic, glossy magazine but a lot less toxic and with a lot more intellect.
Founder of Astrid Productions, Charlie, and Senior Producer, Abi, have been producing your favourite podcasts for years but now they’re in front of the mic. Each week they gather three stories to keep you in the know about the things that matter and crucially… the things that don’t.

Back from a brief break and in the throws of autumnal vibes, we’re catching you up on all things culture.
This week, Charlie and Abi share the TV they’re watching to prepare them for the incoming dark nights, their thoughts on Chappell Roan daring to set boundaries with her “creepy” fans and the cult of the week gets deep with a discussion about gender roles and gifting baby dolls to little girls.
You can find us at @thelisten_, @abigib, @imcharlieperry and send us a love letter here for us to read out next week.
