In September 2020, sound designer and audio producer David Devereux decided to interview their parents about their time working in the National Health Service in the UK. Their dad is a doctor and their mum was a nurse, prior to David coming along.After recording the interviews, they took the tape and turned it into an 8-part, creative non-fiction podcast series, featuring stories from 30 years of working in medicine. There are conversations about education, the experience of running a ward, relationships with colleagues and patients, the dark sense of humour that comes with the job, as well as some of the wild stories that David grew up with.A Tin Can Audio Production See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
