Published on: 5th September, 2024

Welcome to Why Do I Love This? A podcast where we examine how concepts, objects, activities and ideologies become foundational to the human experience.

Join me, Drew Toynbee, on a compelling exploration of the deep connections we have with concepts, objects, activities, and ideologies. Each episode dives into the reasons behind our attachments and the experiences that shape who we are. In this show I engages with guests to uncover academic, psychological, and philosophical insights that illuminate these profound passions. From fictional characters to sports, music, and even the medium of podcasts themselves, no topic is too strange or obscure.

If you have a concept, object, activity or ideology that is deeply important to you, and you'd be interested in appearing on a future episode of this show, then you can fill in this form. I will do my best to get back to everyone, although I will only make an episode on something that I'm confident I can do deep enough research on to do it justice.

Created and hosted by Drew Toynbee, "Why Do I Love This?" explores why specific concepts, objects, activities and ideologies become deeply important to individual people.

Each episode is built around two interviews with a single guest. The first is our opportunity to get to know them and how their topic has played a part in their lives. The second interview then takes place when Drew has had a chance to delve into the world of academia, psychology, philosophy, and speaking to experts, and can then discuss his findings with the guest.
