Podcast From The Past

RACHEL JOHNSON & NICK ASBURY - Creating a Fricasée

Joining Tom Jackson to discuss the postcards from their pasts are journalist and author RACHEL JOHNSON (Notting Hell, The Lady, The Mummy Diaries) and writer NICK ASBURY (The Disappointments Diary, Realtime Notes). We explore Notting Hill, take a trip up the A6, discover the secrets of the Inferior Poetry Society, animal cruelty, jokes on postcards that are understood only by the senders. Along the way we consider twisted fan mail to Take That, if you should think twice about visiting Hibbing, and ask whether too much television can give you indigestion. And a postcard from the Prime Minister. Wish you were here? Hosted on Acast.

In each episode of PODCAST FROM THE PAST, Tom Jackson - who curates the hugely popular twitter feed and book Postcard From The Past - welcomes to the studio two guests, each armed with old postcards they couldn’t bear to throw away. Together, in funny, human and sometimes moving conversations, they explore the memories, mysteries and stories held by those postcards. Hosted on Acast.
