In this episode, we’re surrounded by smells.

Some of them open the door to old memories, while others are just good in the moment.

I talk about a cold morning with frost on the grass, the chemical bite of a swimming pool, the warm smell of a busy café, and the fresh, green air after rain.

It’s a slow walk through scents that have stayed with me, some for years, some for no reason at all.

If you’ve ever stopped in your tracks because of a smell, this one’s for you.
