Expect nostalgia, honesty, revelations – and lots and lots of teasing. The podcast will definitely ‘go there’ on the tricky questions, asking: what impact did birth order and roles in the family have in shaping their relationship? Who is the ‘clever’ one? The ‘irresponsible’ one? Where did these labels come from, and how have they mattered? A sprinkling of sibling science will also add some academic umami – what research is there on the importance of siblings and how it shapes us as individuals? What can the experts tell us about sibling rivalry? Or how our relationships with our brothers and sisters provide a training ground for other relationships all through life? Host Catherine Carr has worked in radio and podcasts for over 20 years. She is the middle child of three, and has created this podcast to finally get some attention…
