The Happy Pod: Letters from dad - with love

"The Happy Pod" presents a collection of uplifting stories from around the world. It begins with the "Dad Letter Project," where a man writes encouraging letters to strangers, followed by the story of a dog in the UK that helps clean up ocean plastic. The podcast then explores the resurgence of knitting among Gen Z as a stress-relieving hobby. Later segments include a feature on a UK charity, Migrateful, that integrates refugees through cooking classes, a profile of the last newspaper hawker in Paris, and the positive impact of a local store in a remote Australian community. The episode concludes with a listener submission about a Guinness World Record achievement in Ecuador, highlighting themes of community, hope, and positive change.
