Here's the show notes:

Welcome to the first ever I Like The Sound podcast, written, presented and produced by Frank Burton.

In this episode, we learn about the importance of sound in food, the meaning of ‘glossolalia’ and the origins of the Crazy Frog noise.

Manda Rin from Bis tells us about how much she enjoys hearing seagulls. Sheetal Singh, AKA Forest Bees, talks about how her children respond to sounds that they like.
