The Gap: Conversations That Cross Generations
The Gap offers a unique perspective on confronting life's issues by bringing together people from different generations to share their experiences.
Ever thought about how different generations tackle similar life challenges? 'The Gap', a podcast from LADbible, brings you into the room for raw, honest conversations between people from different eras who share a common experience. Whether it's grappling with addiction, facing mental health issues, or dealing with the scars of war and crime, this podcast dives deep into the heart of these topics.
The premiere episode introduces us to a former soldier and an adoptee, both of whom have faced abandonment and homelessness. Their stories are not just tales of struggle but also of resilience and hope. One particularly moving moment comes when the adoptee reflects on his abandonment, saying, 'I cannot even begin to imagine the circumstances that would drive a mother to abandon me somewhere'.
The soldier's recounting of his family's time in a hostel is equally poignant: 'There was a tear in my eye when I saw my daughter and my wife in a hostel with me'. These conversations reveal how societal attitudes towards these issues have evolved over time. By listening to 'The Gap', you'll gain new perspectives on some of life's toughest battles, all through the lens of those who have lived them.
It's not just about understanding the past; it's about finding common ground and empathy across generations. Tune in for heartfelt stories that will leave you thinking long after the episode ends.
