This is the Coffee & Geography Podcast's 50th episode! Kit celebrates by reflecting on some of the conversations they have had over the past year or so, discussing them with an audience. What can we learn from such 'everyday conversations'?

Starting as a pandemic ‘comfort project’ but growing into something so much more, Coffee and Geography was a podcast where I simply chatted to people. These chats led to exploring connections and intersections through a geographical lens, but also helped to broaden my horizons, check my own privilege, and bring back some faith in humanity. Bring a brew and come and find out what I’ve learnt, which can be useful anecdotes and aids in the classroom, from these ‘everyday’ conversations.
