On London and The London Society have joined forces collection to debate problems with key significance to the capital’s evolution with visitor consultants
For a few years I and a BBC Radio producer Andrew McGibbon have been placing collectively radio documentary model podcasts for The London Society, the distinguished charity of which I’m a trustee. Run below the collection title London Defined, these have been well-received and can proceed (in truth, a brand new one might be launched very quickly).
Nevertheless, in addition they take a very long time to place collectively and the society and I assumed it could be good to launch a separate however complementary collection of debate podcasts, which may be put collectively rather more shortly, to spice up podcast output general.
These, not like the documentaries, that are London Society tasks, might be joint endeavours by the society and On London, co-presented by me and London Society chair Leanne Tritton.
The brand new collection known as Speak About London and the very first version explores the recently-published London Progress Plan, an bold doc put collectively by Metropolis Corridor and London Councils that units a pathway for higher prosperity for the capital and its individuals.
Leanne and I had been joined by two excellent visitor consultants: Antonia Jennings, chief government of assume tank Centre for London and Dr Jack Brown, lecturer in London Research at King’s School. Watch and luxuriate in our 30-odd minute dialog under.
