  • Summary

  • yBC’s “Extraordinary” podcast focusses in on the people making a difference. The podcast pulls together a unique array of people taking on big challenges and doing extraordinary things. People modestly focussing on an issue, cause, challenge or industry that they are passionate about, or simply doing something extraordinary. People making things happen to make a real difference to those around them and those who follow in their footsteps, or inspiring others to live life differently. We share and celebrate their stories, told in their own words, from their perspective and without scripting. Interviewed by Mark Sinclair and produced/published by the team at yBC.tv every Tuesday.
