Podcast Overview

Two men, occasionally described as grown-ups, and occasionally also as professionals, take an hour to discuss the latest goings on in politics, culture and history from a Mackem(ish) perspective. What's been on their screens, in their ears and, crucially, grinding their gears this week? And what artefact will make it into the Mackem Treasure Trove? With interviews and anecdotes focusing on Sunderland's past, present and future, it's not about actually about the city per se, it's about the Mackem worldview. But if you love the areas and the people, you'll love this pod. Ha'way, man
