Fi Glover presents three conversations - between strangers Adam and Linda who share differing views on the importance of gaming versus reading; Rachel and Jaina talking about raising awareness of blindness; and Alena and Adam on challenging perceptions of stay-at-home parents.

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.
