At Your Leisure with Sue Perkins
Sue Perkins returns for another round of relaxed and wonderfully digressive conversations in At Your Leisure with Sue Perkins. This series, from Global Media & Entertainment, steps away from the usual talk show agenda to explore the simple joys and private obsessions that fill people's spare time. Each episode is built around the idea that you learn something genuine about a person when they discuss what they do purely for pleasure. Sue’s warm and curious hosting creates a space where guests naturally let their guard down, leading to stories that are often surprisingly funny and unexpectedly revealing. Rather than focusing on career highlights, the podcast delves into the hobbies, pastimes, and passions that shape their lives off-stage and off-screen.
In this season, Sue sits down for ten distinct chats, each brimming with nostalgia and personal insight. You’ll hear her in conversation with a diverse mix of fascinating individuals, like singer-songwriter Tom Grennan and actor-writer-comedian Babatunde, uncovering the activities that captivate them during their downtime. The tone is consistently intimate and meandering, much like a great chat with a friend. Listening feels like being welcomed into a cozy corner where the pressure is off and the stories are real. It’s a celebration of the things we do simply because we love them, offering a refreshing and humanizing pause from the everyday rush.
