Coronavirus Diary #5

In today’s weekend Debrief, a short update and some musings from Warsaw.

Hi there, I’m John Beauchamp with The Debrief. First of all, an apology that the pod’s coming out today and not last Friday as promised – as these times in lockdown are unknown to all of us, so too am I working on trying to recalibrate life: the art of juggling work with domestic obligations, time for stepping back and relaxing, you know, everything we usually do, but within the confines of four walls.

If you’re into podcasts and found sound, why not also tune in to the Field Recordings podcast, which has a growing number of awesome recordings made by wide range of audio producers world-wide. It’s great and really soothing for the soul, especially with the current situation. And on that note, I’ll leave you with a binarual recording I made of a highland stream in the mountain town of Zakopane around this time in 2019.

It’s a hard time for all of us to get through, but let’s get through it together! If you want to get in touch please write to me at podcasts@thefirstnews.com and if you have Whatsapp, why not leave me a voice message (which you agree to being used on air, of course!) at +48 504 202 352.

Stay updated by checking out the Coronavirus updates on TFN, and there’s also a lot happening on Facebook. It’s doesn’t all have to be doom and gloom.

Stay safe!
