Every year some months have five Fridays, and every time this happens we find something to do there: something out of our normal schedule. We try to adopt an annual theme. In 2021 we played music licensed under creative commons licences; in 2022 we found four old radio shows; and in 2023 we looked back to four early episodes of Meanwhile in an Abandoned Warehouse.
This year whenever we find ourselves in the fifth Friday of a month we will look around us and find a podcast that interests us: one published under a Creative Commons licence that relates in one way or another to our areas of interest.
This month we return to the Bees of Bensham, a project we looked at in June in episode 036 of Common Practice. They now have a podcast available. Created by Mattie, a writer and perfomer from Northumberland, the series of podcasts involves interviews with some of the artists, ecologists, naturalists, bee experts and enthusiasts and residents involved in the project.
We asked Ben Jones, founder of Dingy Butterflies, to pick an episode for us to rebroadcast, and this is the one that he chose: an episode in which Mattie interviews Barbara Keating, the lead artist on the project.
