About Publicity - Your London Travel Toolkit

Ready. Set. London! is London in your headphones, led by Expat Andy - a funny, practical guide who turns confusion into confidence, crowds into detours, landmarks into neighborhoods, pubs into decoder rings, and ordinary streets into stories. Kind of like your high school history teacher with more snark, less formality. London trip planning meets storytelling. A podcast to listen to before you pack your bag. An audio-guided London exploration experience. Explore London through immersive walking stories, historic pubs, hidden streets, food culture, and self-guided adventures. Planning a London trip has never been easier, or more overwhelming. We have access to infinite information, yet zero clarity. Every blog, listicle, algorithm-driven 'Top Ten' pulls us in a different direction, burying the things that actually matter under an avalanche of noise. The hidden gem, the neighborhood that makes no sense until someone explains it, the pub that unlocks three hundred years of history through silent observation of the neighborhood, none of that surfaces in an online search. Ready. Set. London! is your signal in the static. Your London Travel Toolkit, built by a Brit, to help you curate the trip you actually want to take. On this London travel podcast we explore neighborhoods through everyday spaces, including pubs – revealing rhythms, stories, and hidden histories. Favoring observation over itinerary, we give you the tools to make best use of your travel time, and not return home having missed out. Nothing substitutes for a local, skilled, personality driven tour guide to help you navigate the streets in real life. However, by listening to this podcast before your walking tour, you'll be ready to focus your walking tour guide on the questions you need answering. Ready. Set. London! Trip Planning Made Easy. Bob's Your Uncle!

   Roupell Street – Circus, Scandal & Secrets Behind Waterloo

   We'd love to hear from you! Come out of Waterloo Station, ignore the London Eye, turn away from the crowds and follow me. Just a few minutes away is Roupell Street—a remarkably preserved pocket of London where workers once crowded into tiny houses, the modern circus was born nearby, a Victorian pub still guards the corner, and the family whose name is on the street produced one of the more spectacular scandals of the 19th century. Welcome to Streets of London, a new Ready. Set. London! series...
