Über diesen Titel

What does it mean to wait? To desire? To feel stuck? In this series Katy Davis explores unique personal stories of waiting, anticipation and delayed gratification.

From a couple trying to maintain a relationship while one of them is serving a 213 year prison sentence; to a woman waiting for her second lung transplant; to coming out as bisexual age 69- this series inhabits extraordinary periods of suspense and uncertainty.

    The act of waiting turned Dr. Nick Makoha into a poet. While he waits, he fills these moments of anticipation with his imagination. And from his imagination comes his latest poetry collection, ‘The New Carthaginians’ which has been nominated for the 2025 T.S Eliot Prize.

    In this episode, we hear how Nick sees himself as a time traveller and writes love poems that seek to pause time.

    Please be aware, there are mentions of police brutality, systemic racism, and the murder of George Floyd. Take care while you’re listening.

    Dec 2 2025

    A few years ago, Jennifer was waiting for a call. A call from her hospital that would save her life, because her lungs were failing and she was in desperate need of a lung transplant. In this final instalment of Jennifer's story, she shares how her life became intertwined with that of her donor's in ways she could never have imagined. Because her donor not only gifted her new life, but led her to someone she'd waited a very long time meet.
