White Wine Question Time

We're back!

And back with a bang.

My Sister's Keeper
Small Great Things
The Pact
Nineteen Minutes

These are just some of the massive best-sellers written by my guest in this episode, Jodi Piccoult.

If you haven't read her books - just consider this; In 2017 Jodi was named in the Top 10 Harvard alumni shaping the world. Some of the other names on the list... Jeff Bezos, Michelle Obama, Eric Schmidt (Then Google's CEO) and Robert Mueller (Director of the FBI). Her books fly off the shelves around the globe - she's sold over 60million copies of her novels.

You can order her latest book Hollow Bones here

And she's one of my favourite authors.

I hope you enjoy this conversation - it's GREAT to be back.

Cheers,
xx

We've rewound all the way back to the beginning this week - and the first month of the podcast. The original billing read: "Kate Thornton poses three questions to three well-known faces over three glasses of wine. On this episode: Britain's Got Talent judge Amanda Holden, The Worst Witch star Nicola Stephenson and The Detail lead Angela Griffin"

We will be BACK with brand new episodes after our summer break in a couple of weeks - watch out for that we're already lining-up some fabulous guests and planning something big for our 500th episode in early October.

Cheers!

This is one of most beautiful and most emotional episodes we've ever made.

It's actually from later in the first year of the podcast (October 2019) but we really wanted to play it again for you - here's how we described it at the time.

Original billing for this episode: In one of our favourite episodes ever, Kate Thornton is joined by poet Lemn Sissay and actress Lisa Faulkner for a no-holds-barred discussion of foster care and adoption in the UK. Lemn and Lisa come from two vastly different experiences: Lemn was taken from his unwed mother and placed with a foster family who turned him out of their home when he was 12; Lisa adopted her daughter in 2006, and counts it as the best decision of her life. Listen for a moving lesson in love and belonging.

We're working on new episodes of the podcast - and we'll be back with some more fabulous guests at the end of the summer.

Cheers!
