Late Night Uni Chats Podcast

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Bristol chapter.

Late Night Uni Chats

Hosted by new best friends Hope and Kalina, Late Night Uni Chats is Bristol’s latest student podcast, and a must to add to your listening list. Speaking on a range of pressing and relevant topics concerning our age group, the podcast’s goal, as the students put it themselves, is: ‘to inspire conversation, encouraging our generation of students to be open and honest with themselves and each other’.

With so many aspects of our lives currently ground to a halt, the new university experience entails less partying and instead endless time for chats. Rather than becoming demoralised by this, hosts Hope and Kalina have recognised a fantastic opportunity to broaden conversation between students, encouraging listeners to delve deeper than the surface level and small talk that is all too common in new interactions. The podcast reaffirms the ownness and control we can take in our lives even in a time of such social uncertainty through the power of conversation. Whilst also creating a sense of solidarity that you are not alone in the frustrations and obstacles that impact our current generation, as we venture into adulthood.

Offering a refreshing and honest outlook, the hosts don’t shy away from sharing their own experiences and opinions. Coming from contrasting backgrounds, Hope from a separated household and being privately educated through external means, and Kalina being state-educated and from an immigrant background. The pair offer alternative viewpoints and experiences of life but come together in a delightful and natural way through their relationship as friends.  In listening to their own journey of self-reflection and growth it is noticeable that the podcast aims to branch beyond themselves to a broader community, so we can all learn and grow together.

Available now to listen to on Spotify, episodes are released each Sunday. Late Night Uni Chats debut episodes of ‘How do I Create a Healthy Relationship with Money?’ and ‘How do we Escape our Image?’ are promising and thought-provoking. The hosts strike just the right balance between exploring difficult topics while never taking themselves too seriously. Filled with ‘eccentric dream, the occasional wild university story and other personal anecdotes,’ it offers an easy listen. Be ready to feel as if you are sat with friends between all the tipsy jokes and giggles.

It’s laid-back. It’s relevant. It’s motivational.

Late Night Uni Chats promises exciting things to come!
