Where Shall We Meet
Explorations of topics about society, culture, arts, technology and science with your hosts Natascha McElhone and Omid Ashtari.
The spirit of this podcast is to interview people from all walks of life on different subjects. Our hope is to talk about ideas, divorced from our identities - listening, learning and maybe meeting somewhere in the middle. The perfect audio diet for shallow polymaths!
Natascha McElhone is an actor and producer.
Omid Ashtari is a tech entrepreneur and angel investor.
