About the Podcast

Life by Misadventure

Real stories about misadventure, resilience and the moments that shape who we become.

Life by Misadventure is an independent interview podcast hosted by David Brown, featuring honest conversations with people whose lives have taken unexpected turns.

Each episode centres on one guest and one life story. The conversations explore the moments, decisions, setbacks and strange turns that shaped them, from illness and loss to reinvention, resilience, identity, work, family and personal change.

The show is not just about what happened. It is about what happened next. How did that moment change the way they saw themselves? How did it affect their choices, relationships, confidence, humour, work, family or sense of purpose? What did they carry from it? What did they leave behind?

The format is simple: thoughtful long-form interviews, led by curiosity rather than sensationalism. Guests are given time to tell their story properly, without being rushed towards a neat lesson, tidy ending or polished version of events.

Some stories are dramatic. Some are quiet. Some are funny, painful, surprising or strange. What connects them is the mark they leave.

This is a podcast for listeners who enjoy real personal stories, reflective conversation and the messy truth of being human. It is for people navigating change in their own lives, people interested in lived experience, and anyone who knows that ordinary lives often contain extraordinary stories.

Listen if you are drawn to stories about resilience, identity, loss, recovery, reinvention and the moments people carry with them.

Life by Misadventure is about the things that happen to us, the people we become because of them, and the stories we only understand properly with time.
