WHAT TO DO
ABOUT
Hello! And welcome to What To Do About – a weekly podcast that simply asks one question, “What do we do about?”.
We explore solutions with guests bringing all sorts of expertise and lived experience to the studio, in turn providing answers, action and hope to some of today’s biggest problems.
We hope you enjoy the show.

Listen & Watch On:
we know what's broken
Here's what to do about it
What To Do About… is a weekly podcast hosted by Peter Holbrook and Lord Victor Adebowale — two long-time colleagues who’ve spent their careers working alongside the people actually solving Britain’s biggest problems.
Every Friday, they sit down with the experts, campaigners and entrepreneurs already fixing what’s broken — from poverty and healthcare to nature, education and democracy — and ask one question: what should we actually do about this?
It’s not another show diagnosing the crisis. The solutions already exist — they’re just scattered. This podcast brings them together, brick by brick.
New problem. New solutions. Every Friday.
