The BBC World Service podcast "The Happy Pod" offers a collection of inspiring tales that celebrate human kindness and resilience. Tune in to hear about a homeless pianist whose viral performance sparked a fundraising effort to help others, and an Iowa man who transformed his street into a magical winter wonderland for his wife suffering from Alzheimer's. Discover the remarkable story of a man who survived eight days in the snowy mountains, all thanks to his cat, and learn about a project in Nigeria aimed at tackling neonatal jaundice. The podcast also explores research showing that dolphins have regional "accents," a community knitting initiative addressing loneliness, and the incredible journey of a girl who survived two weeks alone in the Siberian wilderness.
