Witty storytelling, great concept for doing Banksy quotes (duping the voices of notable persons, which is effective and fun) and compelling interviews provide great insight into Banksy’s career span, anonymity and controversy and attempts to learn his identity.
A standout interview is with Steph Warren, who one hopes finds renewed success and continued wellness. Her contribution to the story really stood out, as did her loyalty to the artist. She has a beautiful soul, recovery is no easy path. Glad she’s got that crazy Eddie alongside her as a companion.
The art collector who has the Banksy print of surveillance cameras was also interesting, I found his voice to be quite odd-too perfect and unidentifiable as to country or continent. I thought perhaps it was altered or enhanced which is fine, but if it had been, James probably would have said so even if the reason had to be kept private. Otherwise, the gentleman has to have the greatest enunciation ever: English and Swiss schools?
For someone who isn’t a journalist, this felt like a polished presentation and report. Well done. Also enjoyed Duncan the sound guy’s insights, honest and decisive.
Thanks for the pod!
