Samtalepodcast af Sara Barfoed og Dicte Vejvad SIDESTIK har til formål at behandle aktuelle tabubelagte emner, og derved åbne en mere fri samtale om det der trykker. Det primære perspektiv kommer fra Sara og Dicte som er skabere og værter på podcasten. Vi mener, at mange problemstillinger og emner endnu ligger mørklagt og kan være svære for alle aldre og størrelser at gribe fat i. Det vil vi gerne bidrage til at ændre via denne podcast. Som lytter er du altid velkommen til at kontakte os via mail (som du finder her på siden), facebookside eller instram som begge går under navnet SIDESTIK. Vi tager imod foreslag til emner med kyshånd. Stor tak til alle jer der lytter og til Jonathan Märcher Sandig for vores jingle og Andrea Lund for logo. Værter: Dicte Vejvad og Sara Barfoed Musik: Jonathan Märcher Sandig
