About Us
Our Story
Culture Talks is a monthly podcast that launched in January 2025, following six months as a radio show on PCR FM.
It challenges the idea that Peterborough lacks culture or support for young creatives, by amplifying youth voices and showcasing the city’s vibrant grassroots scene. Each episode features young cultural leaders and explores local news and events to spark curiosity and awareness.

Our Aim
The podcast aims to create a Peterborough where all young people feel a sense of belonging, diversity is genuinely embraced, and the community takes pride in its cultural identity.
​
Culture Talks documents the city’s cultural evolution and the people shaping it.
