Podcast From The Past

SIMON KANE & CHRIS POWER - The Home of Barry Manilow

Joining Tom Jackson to discuss the postcards from their pasts are actor and writer SIMON KANE (Time Spanner, North by Northamptonshire, Shunt, The Monster Hunters, John Finnemore’s Double Acts) and critic and author CHRIS POWER (The Guardian, Mothers). Get your perm done, slip on your lurex and join a solemn bus tour tour round a crumbling gnome village, witness the mysterious Wayne, Wendy and a performing seal, marvel at the Lord Mayor’s Show of Misery (and Murder?), sample flowers, oysters, Blu-Tack and champagne.

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.
