Fi Glover presents friends and strangers in conversation as the nation adjusts to the 'new normal'. In this week's programme: Simon and Jo – strangers who both work in peer-to-peer support for parents talking about parenting pressures and mental health; Conor and Jack talk about how playing video games together got them through the last lockdown and provided a space for them to talk and about their feelings on the impending lockdown; and Chloe and Janki exchange stories about their experiences of getting married and planning a Hindu wedding and trying to keep up with the constantly changing pandemic restrictions.

The Listening Project is a Radio 4 initiative that offers a snapshot of contemporary Britain in which people across the UK volunteer to have a conversation. The conversations are being gathered across the UK by teams of producers from local and national radio stations who facilitate each encounter. Every conversation lasts up to an hour, and is then edited to extract the key moments of connection between the participants. Most of the unedited conversations are being archived by the British Library and used to build up a collection of voices capturing a unique portrait of the UK in this decade of the millennium.

Fi Glover presents the longer weekly edition of the programme on the shared experience of being in lockdown and beyond.

In this edition Tom and Claire, ardent rugby fans who have never met - recorded the day before the Rugby Premiership final last Saturday at Twickenham, - and who support opposing sides, share their passion for the game. Kim and Ian, a recently engaged couple, talk through the pros and cons of becoming part of an eco-community. And Yorkshire-based businesses people Richard and Sarah, discuss how and why they became involved in Marcus Rashford's school meals campaign - providing food for families who need support during the half term holiday.
