  • Dr Amir Khan
    Mar 26 2026
    Oh hello, and welcome back to the garden, lovely listeners. 🌱 Spring has sprung, the daffodils are doing their thing, and the doctor is in! Yes, joining me this week is the ever-delightful Dr Amir Khan. 🩺 We had a lovely chat about grief and gardening, his work with the RSPB, and what it’s like being the nation’s favourite GP. Plus, listen in to discover why a rather unfortunate rash brought Amir’s garden centre visit to an abrupt end... 👀 Now, put down that cheeky little rascal, apply your ointments, and come pottering with us... It’s very good to be back. 🌎 Get an exclusive 15% discount on your first Saily data plans! Use code tomallen at checkout.
