Multi Story Edinburgh
Multi Story Edinburgh is a student-produced podcast that features snapshots of life as a new graduate. Each episode is a different path and a different story.
In Season 6 we speak to five graduates from the Class of 2024 about the ins and outs of post-graduation life.
If you are interested in telling your story, please get in touch and let's talk.
Previous Seasons:
In Season 5 titled 'All Roads Lead to Edinburgh', we feature guests from the Class of 2023. Our student host, Andrew McGillivray, takes them five years into an ideal future and asks where they would like to be, and how they would return to Edinburgh if presented the chance to give a speech to the new student cohort.
For season 4, we spoke to our 2022 graduates and asked them: Are we back to normal yet?
In season 3, we expanded our scope and decided to chat to a mix of graduates about returning to a place. Is going back a negative, an acceptance of defeat? Or does time and experience change our perspective and our priorities?
Season 2 is a little bit of the same but quite a lot different. As the world emerges from pandemic paralysis, are our 2021 graduates feeling inspired or inhibited, glad or gloomy, chaotic or calm?
In season 1, we talked to our 2020 graduates about how things were going, or not going, for them.

And we're rolling.
Matt 00:03
We're rolling.
Matt 00:04
We're rolling. Okay, that should be rolling. Do you think that was your peak feeling of university life, getting that scroll? What was it like?
Ammir 00:15
Right now, it feels a bit more surreal, bittersweet.
Brigid 00:19
It's very bittersweet. I think it's hard for that chapter to close because it was so wonderful and...
Ben 00:28
satisfying, I don't know if that's, I don't know if that's quite the best word to go with, but you know, it felt very rewarding and fulfilling to kind of have...
Brigid 00:35
that type of closure. So I know when I submitted my dissertation, I was just alone in the basement of the library on a random Saturday, middle of the day, I just clicked submit, and that was the last thing. And I just kind of walked out by myself. And I was like, okay, now what?
Toby 00:51
It's easy to forget this kind of happened. At the start of the podcast, I said I'm an English Literature student. I forgot that, I forgot the graduations happened.
Matt 00:57
Season 6 of Multi Story Edinburgh is here. I'm Matt O'Malley, your new host, and join me as I sit down with graduates from the Class of 2024, with the aim of uncovering the realities of graduation. Why should people listen to Multi Story Edinburgh?
Jenna 01:12
I mean, I think even if it's not relevant to you yet, like you haven't graduated, you'll be there before you know it. And it also just seems like a really fun way to learn about degrees that you had never interacted with or didn't know much about.
Ben 01:27
You know, if you're in a position where maybe you're not 100% sure about what your path's gonna be after graduating, maybe you'll get an idea or two about what's out there and potential paths for the future
Toby 01:40
It might be a bit calming or a bit reassuring, that just because you're not working your dream job and earning an insane amount of money, it doesn't mean that you're a failure. It's just normal and it's time to, you know, trust the process.
Brigid 01:56
There is that tendency to get really caught up in know what's next. It's
really scary. Everything's kind of pulled out from under you, but it's also good thing to just kind of enjoy that, and everything's kind of open to you.
