About this listen

Dermot O'Leary welcomes you back to the second season of his interview podcast, People, Just People. Inspired by understanding how some of the most interesting people in all walks of life got to where they have, Dermot chats candidly with guests about key moments that have defined them, the lessons they have learnt and much more.

Dermot says: 'People, Just People is born out of curiosity to find out more about the lives of individuals that I've watched from afar - but not had the chance to get to know. How they got to where they did, the highs and lows that shaped that journey, and what have they learned along the way?'

This is an Audible Original Podcast. Free for members. New episodes will arrive in your Library weekly, on a Thursday.

    The 1979 Fastnet Yachting Race was one of Britain’s worst maritime events. What was meant to be a thrilling leisure activity turned in to disaster, when a perfect storm hit the race. 75 boats capsized, 5 sank and 19 people died.

    Matt Sheahan was just 17 when he and his father set sail. Janet Grosvenor was Deputy Race Director. Both tell their story.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
Great idea and stories but the interviewer ruined it for me. He cut the guests off and rushed the interviews too much for my liking.

Great concept, poor interviewer.
