Taking it outside with Nell Frizzell

Podcast Radio Hour

Available for over a year

The journalist Nell Frizzell and producer Luke Doran take a walk to talk about outdoor podcasts. The featured podcasts are; 'Folk On Foot', in which Matthew Bannister talks to the singer and writer Karine Polwart around Fala Moor. We then interview Matthew Bannister about the 'Folk On Foot' podcast, whilst walking through Hampstead Heath. 'The Wild', a podcast from KUOW in Seattle, in which the ecologist Chris Morgan goes on 'The Hunt To Find Just One Square Inch Of Silence', which takes him deep in to the Hoh rainforest. Chris then answers questions about the podcast, and tells us how he may have created a proto-podcast when he was younger, and it was all about red squirrels. 'Walking', a podcast with no talking, just walking, made by the writer Jon Mooallem. First broadcast BBC Radio 4 Extra in August 2019.
