The Distancing Days. Episode 1
This is the first in a series of who knows how many podcasts I put out during this period of social distancing. Here we have a series of short recordings I took when I went to York with Isla. We then have another series of recordings taken by our friend Isabella when she was in southern Africa on a safari holiday. <br /><br />If you have any interesting recordings you would like to share, please send them to me and I'll think about putting them on here. You can also send a video and I can extract the audio no problem. I'll also keep you updated with how my social distancing is going if anything interesting happens..

A Layman's Guide To The UK General Election 2019
Here in the UK we go to the polls for a general election on Thursday December 12th 2019 so I thought that after the moderate (even limited) success of my layman's guide to the European election, I could do another one. This time I thought it would be more interesting to bring Isla in so that we could share the responsibility of telling you about what's going on and how to get involved and I hope that if nothing else, our excitement over the prospect of election night itself ends up coming through. We forgot to mention some things like tactical voting, the process of voting against a candidate you disapprove of rather than voting for a candidate you favour, though the recording is already about half an hour long so forgive us this horrendous error. If we short changed you of some good information in any other way on this free and amature podcast, let me know so I can put it right next time.<br /><br />We enjoyed recording this so I hope you enjoy listening to it just as much. We want to do one after the election detailing all the candidates and parties who make us laugh or wonder what on earth is going on.

Giovanni, The Craft Beer Kitchen
I was sitting with Isla one day when she told me about <a href="https://www.stewartbrewing.co.uk/craft-beer-kitchen" rel="noopener">https://www.stewartbrewing.co.uk/craft-beer-kitchen</a> where you can go and get help to brew your own beer. Our friend Isabella was coming over here for her birthday and wouldn't you know it, Isabella loves good beer. Isla doesn't but she does like science so it was a no brainer to make this a sort of birthday present from us. We decided to brew a coffee and vanilla stout and call it Giovani after a goat from a real life scenario in the world of Isabella that all 3 of us somehow turned into a Mafia gangster. In this podcast you'll get to hear our experiences brewing it, told after the fact because it would have been too noisy to record at the time. Secondly you'll hear me interview James, the brewer who helped us turn our idea into something people could drink. Then it's a trip to Stewart's Dockside Tap <a href="https://maps.app.goo.gl/3YKkHRQrDn8d69Ty8" rel="noopener">https://maps.app.goo.gl/3YKkHRQrDn8d69Ty8</a> to taste the beer with the manager Joe Crookshank who knows his stuff when it comes to beer. Lastly it's a skype call with Isla and Isabella who is back in Austria. Finally the two beer drinkers of the group could have some Giovanni at the same time. Thanks Isla for coming along even though you don't like beer or coffee. Thanks Isabella for coming along and liking beer and Coffee. Thanks Joe for agreeing to record the tasting, the Dockside Tap is my favourite local by a mile. Lastly a special thanks to the people at the Craft Beer Kitchen. We felt welcomd by friendly staff, Angus in particular gave me some good advice on the phone which came in handy and of course thanks James for helping us brew and sharing your knowledge. We loved it and we'll be back.
