Where Are You Going? is a unique storytelling podcast in which Catherine Carr interrupts people as they go about their everyday lives and asks simply: “Where are you going?” 

The conversations that follow are always unpredictable: sometimes funny, sometimes heart-breaking, silly, romantic or occasionally downright ‘stop-you-in-your-tracks’ surprising.

Be transported to places around the world and into the lives of others: You just never know what story is coming next… 


Presented by Catherine Carr 

Music by Edwin Pearson

Produced by the team at Loftus Media
