    Jaunty Tangents (Raspberries to Rockpools) with Anna Keirle

    In this eclectic podcast about creativity and finding a way through, host Joanna Neary chats with fellow artist, comedian and writer Anna Keirle about a handful of their common interests. It was meant to be a book review podcast on ‘Don’t Look Now and Other Stories’ by Daphne Du Maurier but they both forgot. The resulting conversation is rather more diverse. From the joy and ease of starting to create, to the rubbishness of being a girl and on finding inspiration from the people around us and the land beneath our feet. A love story to Cornwall, rock pools and finding a way to look after ourselves.  Mastered by Ciaran Clarke Music by Hedluv Made with funding support from The Arts Council England. Hosted on Acast.

    Baroque Lies & A Joyful Mess with Martin Rowson

    A conversation with artist Martin Rowson about his process, comedy, Ronald Searle, why we draw and the benefits of not rehearsing and podcast host Joanna Neary. An episode about letting go of control and learning, aptly, preparation consisted solely of studying some Ronald Searle drawings and finding a Martin Rowson one. ‘WE DO THIS FOR THE SAME REASON WE TELL STORIES…’ with some grade A swears and a bleep.  You can find related images discussed in this episode at joannaneary.com except for the Guardian cartoon which appeared in the December 13th 2025 issue. Joanna has got a print out of it somewhere but has put it somewhere special and probably won’t see it again now until another futuristic sounding date like.. 2029.   With thanks to Anna Rowson, Nick Revell and Pad Mclean. Original music written and recorded by Hedluv. Made with support from funding from The Arts Council England. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

    Two Strings Cassette Tape with Paul Mclean

    Psychiatric nurse and musician Paul talks to Joanna Neary about making music for its own sake.  It’s another day in 1989. Sick of counting cars and avoiding gainful employment, two feckless teenagers come up with a plan. This is the origin story of ‘Two Strings & Paint Tins’. We talk about judgement too: what happens when people tell you that you shouldn’t be expressing yourself in that genre? Doesn’t it make you want to keep going? YES! This eclectic podcast episode is an experiment, a meandering chat, an exercise in having fun and being way out of the old comfort zones. It’s a celebration of being bored, getting things wrong and keeping on anyway. Theme music by Hedluv. Made with funding support from Arts Council England. Hosted on Acast.

    A note re: Adam Ivy's transcript. This isn’t Joanne O’Neary and at 00.33, Catherine is saying ‘grape hyacinths’ rather than ‘great pouisants’. Adam Ivy is Joanne O’Neary’s name for A.I. He’s a big eejit. Trailer for a mini series; stories, sketches and conversations around creativity. Hosted by Joanna Neary (Wife On Earth Podcast).
