In Episode Seven we go back to history. In an earlier
episode we discovered how archeology unravels our past. However, the public are
not allowed on to the sites. But that does not mean that we cannot explore our past.
Museums offer us an insight into our past. Most cover the topics of war,
Natural History, human evolution, Engineering, and social history. Many villages,
towns and cities have museums covering how their community developed. Cambridge
has no shortage of museums. Some are run by the University, and some are run
independently like the Museum of Cambridge.
In this Podcast we talk to Alex Smaridge, the museum’s engagement, and collections Manager.
We talked about the development of the museum and the day to day running of the
museum. We also talk about the relationship between the University and the Museum.
We also discuss the building the museum is housed in. To further understand
this museum, go to their website which is:
https://www.museumofcambridge.org.uk/
This podcast is another Benchmark on how we are promoting small independent and volunteer
run museums.

In Conversation With George Stanley ( Personal Trainer)
In Episode Six We turn our attention to fitness. The National health Service recommends around 2 hours of vigorous exercise a week. This means getting the heart pumping. But quite a few people do not heed this advice. But a lot of the population do undertake exercise. Many join the local walking group that many surgeries now run. Many people walk their dog more often. And some take up running, joining in their local park run. But many like the comfort of their local commercial gym. There are though more options to get fit than to stand on the treadmill or even try and get fit on the cycle machine or even the rowing machine. Body building is one of those things that can reduce weight and at the same time gain muscle.
In this podcast I talk to my Personal trainer George Stanley on what made him take up Body Building and why its beneficial to someone’s health and mental wellbeing. On what a Personal trainer does and the sort of clients he has. And how he wants his future to expand into management and become a manager of a gym. George works out of the gym group gym in Cambridge and is always willing to take on new clients. Please email, georgestanleypt@gmail.com

In Conversation with Michelle Bullivant
In Episode three of this Podcast, I talk to Landscape Archaeologist and local historian Michelle Bullivant. Michelle did not originally want to train as an archaeologist, but her interest was so strong that she decided to become one. But this was not as easy that she thought.
In this podcast she shares with us her experiences to become one and then goes on to tell us about how genealogy has also become part of her life. She also goes on to tell us what she is now doing in researching history as her role of being a main career to her son has become her main occupation.

In Episode Two I talk to my older Brother Timothy Odell. Tim who once lived in Cambridge decided to join Cambridge Labour Party. He was a very active member of the East Chesterton branch.

Episode One. It is time to start the Quest and to find all those people that want to tell their story. From the politician who wants to be a lot more known. To the street food stall holder telling us what they sell. To the not-for-profit organization which wants to expand its operation. To the community organization who wants people to join their ranks. To the or the theatres that need more people to come and see their productions. It could be the wannabee searching around to start their pop career. Or just a talented individual who wants to tell the world what they do! So lets begin the search!
