Across The Pond is featured on yesterday's History Daily Saturday matinee episode: www.historydaily.com/saturday-mat... They've plucked out an archive favourite about the curious history of the island of Redonda and our interview with Michael Hingston, author of Try Not to be Strange.

It was a delight to speak to Ali Smith for our latest podcast. As you might expect, she is eloquent, generous - and fascinating. Insights into her writing process, the meanings in words, the lack of meaning in social media. Available in your podcast feed, or find it here: www.buzzsprout.com/1728150
