Caroline Crampton: The Lonely Palette and Flash Forward

Podcast Radio Hour

Available for over a year

Amanda Litherland is joined by Caroline Crampton to recommend great podcasts. This week, they recommend two independent podcasts and speak to their creators. The Lonely Palette is an art history podcast by Tamar Avishai. In each episode Tamar focuses on one work of art and looks into the movement, the social context, the anecdotes, and anything and everything else that will make it as exciting to you as it is to her. Flash Forward is a podcast about the future by Rose Eveleth. Each episode takes on a possible (or not so possible) future scenario — everything from the existence of artificial wombs, to what would happen if space pirates dragged a second moon to Earth.
