Samira Ahmed & Peter Watts - A Fridge In A Cupboard

Joining Tom Jackson to discuss the postcards from their pasts are broadcaster SAMIRA AHMED and journalist and author PETER WATTS. We discover a postcard bemoaning the life of a sports journalist at the World Cup, see the postcard that set Samira on the path to arts journalism, and consider how developments in domestic refrigeration may be responsible for the decline of the picture postcard. Come as you are, but have your splash ready. Wish you were here? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

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. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
