Good talk with interesting guests, every Thursday

Every week we sit down with someone who makes something and ask how they got there, what went wrong and what they would do again.

Our story

The show began as a conversation between two friends who liked asking each other about their work. We started recording it on a kitchen table and have not moved much since.

Each episode is a single conversation, lightly edited and unhurried. We want guests to take their time and listeners to feel they are in the room.

My favourite part of Thursday. Warm, curious and never rushed.

The transcripts are a thoughtful touch. I read them while I cook.
