As the name suggests, our podcast is about unpopular people with extraordinary life stories from all over the world. We believe that everybody has something amazing to share with the world. The “Unpopular People” podcast is not like other podcasts. It’s not about top models, stars, managers or billionaires. It’s about people that are on the way to get there or people who just live a satisfying life and still achieve incredible things.
Please note: the first 20 episodes (season 1) are in German. From episode 21 onwards the podcast is in English.
