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.

Charlie and Abi reveal their very different weekends (one involving 13 hours in a cinema, the other – a pond) before getting into what’s been haunting their brains this week.
Charlie explains why the Olympics is her latest obsession, Abi digs into the trad wife that has everyone talking which leads into a hefty discussion on the contradictions and complexity of womanhood.
You can find us at @thelisten_, @abigib, @imcharlieperry and send us a love letter here for us to read out next week.
