    Breed Presents . . . The Podcast with Catherine Fairweather

    In this episode of Breed presents… The Podcast our guest is Catherine Fairweather, journalist, travel writer, editor and also a podcaster. Much of Catherine's professional life has been forged from her love of travel, of discovering new places and cultures and seeing firsthand how other people live. Over the years, Catherine has been a contributing editor at Condé Nast Traveller, Harper's Bazaar, the Financial Times, Air Mail and The Daily Telegraph. She then began podcasting and now hosts two podcasts: Voices from the Frontline, where she talks to people who work in high-risk combat zones all over the world and The Third Act, a podcast that looks at later life in a positive way through conversations with artists, explorers and actors. Catherine was the last interview we recorded for this season and it was so nice to round things off with a fellow podcaster, the first we've had on the series.

    Breed Presents . . . The Podcast with Justine Simons

    In this edition of Breed Presents… The Podcast we're talking to someone who it could easily be argued has had more influence on the cultural capital of London than any other individual in recent history – London's Deputy Mayor for Culture and the Creative Industries Justine Simons OBE. She was given that title by London Mayor Sadiq Khan in 2016, but she'd already been at the heart of support for the creative world under the previous two mayors, since 2002. Some of the projects she's overseen are: Trafalgar Square's Fourth Plinth, the 2012 Cultural Olympiad, founding the World Cities Culture Forum, establishing the London Borough of Culture and most recently developing the East Bank in Stratford. And that's just scratching the surface of her achievements and we touched on many more during this conversation.

    Breed Presents . . . The Podcast with Yolanda Edwards

    A few years back and the printed version of Breed Presents... The Podcast, we talked to Yolanda Edwards, founder and editor of YOLO Journal. YOLO Journal is a quarterly magazine that revels in the beauty of traveling to new places, focusing first on the photography and then on words in the form of personal stories and tips relating to each location.  The magazine is very much a personal project as Yolanda is its founder, publisher and editor as well as a contributor, and is a coming together of much of her previous experience that experience includes two periods working at Condé Nast Traveler, first as photo editor and then as creative director. So, we're delighted to welcome Yolanda back to Breed to speak to us about it. YOLO Journal - Website YOLO Journal - Instagram Yolanda Edwards - Instagram

    Breed Presents . . . The Podcast with Marina Willer

    For this episode we're very pleased to be talking to Marina Willer, at Pentagram London. Marina was born in Brazil, to artist parents, who encouraged an early interest in design and the visual arts. This eventually led her to move to London, where she studied graphic design at the Royal College of Art.  During her design career, she has been central to brand identity work. Her first love, however, has always been film, and she has pursued a parallel career as a filmmaker. Her first feature film was the documentary 'Red Trees' which came out in 2017 and used the story of her own family's escape from the Nazi occupation of Prague to explore today's refugee crisis I caught up with her at the Pentagram offices in Notting Hill, it's a conversation I loved.   Watch Red Trees: via Curzon Home Cinema.
