23: Soundwalking with Dan Pope

One of the ways to explore a place is through its sounds - & in this episode, Dan Pope took me on a soundwalk along the River Avon to find out what we could hear. We talked about what soundwalks are, Dan's work as an acoustic consultant, how soundscapes can be added to places, and what people can use to explore sounds in their area. There are some resources, a map and lots of links on my website: https://avonstories.com/2018/04/26/podcast-23-soundwalking-dan-pope/

22: Tom Brothwell's Bristol History Podcast

As you can guess, from the fact I make podcasts, I really love the medium, and one of the ones I enjoy is the Bristol History Podcast. This has been created by Tom Brothwell, and he interviews different historians and authors to cover a wide range of different subjects that he's interested in, and wants to find out more about. We talked about why he started, his approaches to history, and lots more, including some of the history about the River Avon. For links to Tom's podcasts and more things we talked about, click through to my website: https://avonstories.com/2018/04/18/podcast-22-tom-brothwell-bristol-history-podcast/
