“You don’t need to have super-heroes because there are so many stories you can shine a spotlight on from an ordinary couple sat on the couch.”

David Scott - AKA Argh Kid - is the poet who's captured the imagination of Mancunians with his observational work that often celebrates the Manchester dialect.

David never expected to get a career in the creative industries when he was growing up. Now - he's the official poet for the NSPCC and UEFA, and he’s worked with Manchester United. His radio show on BBC Radio Manchester showcases creative talent from across the region and his book Mancunians is out in 2022.

You'll hear as Lisa Morton discusses the guts it took for Dave to stand on stage and perform in front of all his friends and family, for the first time, in his early 30's. How that led to a video that went viral and kick-started his career, and how he can hear the poetry that comes from everyday people in Greater Manchester.

------

Your host, Lisa Morton, started PR company Roland Dransfield in 1996, one month after the fateful IRA bomb that tore apart the city centre. From that point, the business, and its team members, have been involved in helping to support the creation of Modern Manchester – across regeneration, business, charity, leisure and hospitality, sport and culture.

To celebrate the 25 years that Roland Dransfield has spent creating these bonds, Lisa is gathering together some of her Greater Mancunian ‘family’ and will be exploring how they have created their own purposeful relationships with the best place in the world.
