(This episode first aired in September 2022.) Today's guest is one of Britain's best loved novelists, Lisa Jewell. Her career started with a smash hit debut novel Ralph's Party - which she started writing as a bet at the age of 27 while she was unemployed, and, according to her, “totally lacking in direction and ambition”. It was the book of the moment and for 14 novels it looked like her career - although ticking along nicely - would never hit those heights again.  Then her writing took a turn for the dark and her career took a turn for the stratospheric. Lisa Jewell, it transpired had a knack for a killer twist. That knack propelled her to the top of the bestseller lists on both sides of the atlantic with And Then She Was Gone. That was six books ago and she's never been more successful.  I went to see Lisa in her envy-inducing North London home to talk about her latest book, The Family Remains, the debt she owes Bridget Jones and the sequel she wishes had never seen the light of day. We also chatted about hitting “a golden seam” in her 50s, her unexpectedly scary perimenopause symptoms, testosterone overload, and her extremely proactive ovaries! Plus she shares her controversial secret to successfully parenting teenage girls. * You can buy all the books mentioned in this podcast at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Shift bookshop on Bookshop.org⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, including Don't Let Him In by Lisa Jewell as well as the book that inspired this podcast, The Shift: how I lost and found myself after 40 - and you can too, by me. * If you enjoyed this episode and you fancy buying me a coffee, pop over to my page on ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠buymeacoffee.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠. • And if you'd like to support the work that goes into making this podcast and get a weekly newsletter plus loads more content including exclusive transcripts of the podcast, why not join The Shift community, come and have a look around at ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠www.theshiftwithsambaker.substack.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ • The Shift (on life after 40) with Sam Baker is created and hosted by Sam Baker and edited by Juliette Nicholls at Pineapple Production.

He looked like the friendly neighbor everyone trusted. A soft-spoken civil servant with a kind smile, Dennis Nilsen appeared anything but dangerous. But behind the closed doors of his North London flat, he harbored some of the darkest secrets in British criminal history. Between 1978 and 1983, Nilsen lured young men into his home, where he murdered them—and kept their bodies hidden for weeks, even months, before disposing of them in ways that shocked the nation.

(Stereo Edition) Summer is nearly over and Paul and Eli do not want to waste a single sunny day, so it's time for another walkabout episode! This route, as chosen by Eli, is one they've been keen to do for a while and now it's their chance to tackle the length of the New River. The New River is an artificial waterway that opened in 1613 to deliver water in towards London from Hertfordshire. There is no way in hell that the Cheap Chaps will be able to do ALL of it, as its around 20 miles, but they can do a fat chunk of the middle of it! So, join Paul & Eli as they pack up a few snacks and begin weaving their way through North London, arguing, laughing and pontification before throwing in the towel! How far do they get? Will Paul ever be correct in Eli's eyes? Will the “self-heating” lunch work? Are jokes their forte? It's all revealed in this epic 150 minute walkabout adventure.

Send us a textAuthor and researcher Dr. Colin Fisher joins Joe to unpack the invisible forces that shape teams—and why leaders ignore them at their own risk.From his book The Collective Edge: Unlocking the Secret Power of Groups Dr. Fisher shows how group dynamics are always at play, whether in a locker room, a boardroom, or on the battlefield. Together, he and Joe explore why the myth of the lone genius persists, why synergy is real but rare, and how leaders can deliberately build trust, structure, and norms that drive high-performing teams.In this episode, Joe and Colin explore:Why the Sorting Hat—not Voldemort—might be the real villain of Harry PotterHow the “lone genius” narrative hides the reality of collaboration behind breakthroughsWhat synergy really means and why structure—not speeches—is the leader's most powerful toolThe difference between relational trust and task-based trust, and why the latter makes teams excelHow group norms emerge, and why they can drive both excellence and dysfunctionWhy psychological safety is about the freedom to disagree, not surface-level harmonyHow power changes leaders' relationships with others—and why who you surround yourself with mattersWhether you're leading a squad, running a company, or just trying to understand the groups you're part of, this episode will change how you see teamwork—and give you tools to lead with intention.Since his days as a professional jazz trumpet player, Dr. Colin M. Fisher has been fascinated by group dynamics. As Associate Professor of Organizations and Innovation at University College London's School of Management, Colin's research has uncovered the hidden processes of helping groups and teams in situations requiring creativity, improvisation, and complex decision-making. He has written about group dynamics for both popular science and management audiences, and his work has been profiled in prominent media outlets such as BBC, Forbes, NPR, and The Times. Originally from Redmond, Washington, he now lives in North London with his wife and two children.A Special Thanks to Our Sponsors!Veteran-founded Adyton.

On the outskirts of North London, near Chipping Barnet and Enfield, stands a marvellous country house, Trent Park that belonged to the Sassoon family. In 1939 it was requisitioned by the British government whereupon it became a luxurious POW camp for German prisoners. Why treat them so kindly? Well senior Wehrmacht and Nazi officers were lulled into a false sense of security, they let their guard down and discussed war plans, and their murderous outlook openly, all of which were recorded and translated by listeners in the cellars of the house. Many of these listeners were Jewish refugees. Today's guest is Jane Thynne, whose new book Appointment in Paris features Trent Park so we discuss that and plenty more including France during the war.

This is more than a transfer; it's a story of resilience, redemption, and a transfer masterstroke that snatched a Premier League superstar from Tottenham's grasp. We break down the on-field magic and what Eze's dazzling creativity, electric dribbling, and direct goal threat mean for Mikel Arteta's tactical masterplan.Eberechi Eze transfer, Arsenal FC, Premier League transfers, Tottenham Hotspur, football podcast

In Episode 2 of The Second Map, the war against Japan enters a new phase. Some of the most significant battles of the Second World War were fought on the Asian front - including by the 14th Army, which was known as ‘The Forgotten Army', even at the time. It was formed after a string of defeats to Japan and was made up of nearly a million men, the majority from India and across the British empire. Their main aim: to win Burma back. Assisting them was a remarkable British woman from North London who became known as “The Jungle Queen,” and the tribal group she was living with. Their intervention would be critical. And we hear rare voices from Japanese forces, as the war shifts against them. Creator, Writer and Presenter: Kavita Puri Series Producer: Ellie House Script Editor: Ant Adeane Sound Designer: James Beard Series Editor: Matt Willis Production Coordinators: Sabine Scherek, Maria Ogundele Commissioners for Radio 4 and The World Service: Dan Clarke, Jon ZilkhaOriginal music: Felix Taylor Archive Curator: Tariq Hussain Voice actor: Dai Tabuchi Translators: Hannah Kilcoyne, Sumire HoriWith thanks to Dr Diya Gupta, Dr Vikki Hawkins, Dr Peter Johnston, Professor Rana Mitter and Tejpal Singh Ralmill.

This season is dedicated to helping you pick your summer reads and my guest today is the novelist Charlotte Mendelson whose writing has been compared to “late Shakespeare meets Modern family!” So you know where to turn if you're looking for a painfully funny, on the nose look at the dynamics of love and marriage. Charlotte worked as a publisher for twenty years before becoming an award winning novelist. She's written seven bestselling novels, the most recent of which are The Exhibitionist and Wife, both out now in paperback, which are kind of a pair in that they both deal with the reality of being married to monsters! She has also been gardening correspondent for the New Yorker and now writes for The Observer. I met Charlotte at her home in North London to snoop around her houseplants and her bookshelves while we discussed how to go grey without looking like you're looking after chickens in the wood, the puberty midlife confluence, the disproportionate stress of deciding what to wear, the lifelong impact of growing up nerd, being a pre internet lesbian, internalised homophobia, finding love as a grown up, perimenopausal horniness and so so so much more.

In 2017 Katy O'Neill Gutierrez was keen to get outdoors with her newborn daughter. When she searched for local mum and baby groups that combined a love of the outdoors with meeting other new parents, she couldn't find anything that fit the bill, so she decided to start her own.

Host Ricky Sacks is joined by Billie T, Vass Koni and Ash as the panel discuss the latest developments of Spurs in the transfer window. Tottenham fans woke up to the news this morning that the Lilywhites are in talks with Crystal Palace over a deal for Eberechi Eze. According to some sources, Spurs now know exactly what it would take to sign Eze while their North London rivals, Arsenal, are hesitating to substantiate their interest in the 27-year-old. This development comes on the back of multiple outlets suggesting over the last two days that Tottenham are also locked in negotiations with Manchester City for Savinho. While it is clear that the North Londoners have not reached an agreement over the transfer of either player, Spurs fans will be encouraged by what is being reported about the duo's intentions. According to reports, Eze is keen on completing a move to Tottenham if the club can agree a fee with Crystal Palace.Meanwhile, sources from Brazil have claimed that Savinho has already said ‘yes' to Spurs as he is keen to play regular football ahead of next summer's World Cup.

He decided to leave his job to write a novel and raise their son while his wife worked at the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development. They considered downsizing and moving to the English countryside or getting more remote to facilitate a change in lifestyle. However, after spending time in the South West of France, they decided to do something radical and bought a medieval farmhouse and land in the South West of France, near a village called Montcabrier.  Village Life in Wine Country Greg describes their experience living in a wine region called the Lot, near the Dordogne, in the southwest. The village had about 30 full-time residents, but most people  lived in farmhouses outside the village. The village had a two-room schoolhouse, a bakery, and a mayor's office. Greg and his family rented out renovated three holiday cottages in summers to families with small children. They built a playground, swimming pool, and a beautiful field on their property. Greg also shares his experiences with their neighbors. He also learned how to use a chainsaw and finished his novel, Stunt Road. However, as their son grew older, they decided they needed a bigger centre with more activities and schools. They moved to Aix-en-Provence. Working in Education Greg didn't know what he was going to do there, but they enrolled their son in the International School where he was hired to teach a critical thinking course called Theory of Knowledge at the International Baccalaureate program. He became a high school teacher for 10 years and realized his love for teaching, and eventually wanted to teach at university. He decided to pursue a PhD program at French universities, which were affordable. The tuition for a PhD was about $500 a year.  Greg mentions the benefits of social programs in France. He eventually became a full-time professor at the American College in Aix and runs a master's program in international relations. Integration with French Culture Greg's life is different from what people think it is like living in Southern France. He finds it challenging to integrate into the country. In the rural areas, French culture is radically different, with people being warm but also private. Weekends are spent with family, and they do not easily invite people into their homes. However, he finds warmth in the greetings and the respect shown to others. This reinforces a tradition of treating each other as equals and respect. He also talks about how his students from abroad adjust to French culture.  Back to London and Recovery Greg thinks back to 1998 when he  arrived in North London with his fiance and was unemployed. He had been working at UNHCR, which provided decent pay. However, he was always physically cold and underweight due to his previous experiences with malaria and the constant heat in the tropical climate. He was exhausted from the work and the influx of refugees during the renewed violence in Freetown. One of his bouts of malaria occurred while doing a refugee census in the forest region. He spent three days in a room full of bugs and had limited access to food. He talks about how he broke down and found it was cathartic for him. He talks about a particularly difficult time, and how he teaches a course on armed conflict, linking it to genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, and refugees. Large glass He often shares anecdotes from his time there, but admits that sometimes he struggles to get through them. Influential Harvard Professors and Courses Greg mentions his first year English course with Helen Vendler. He recalls a kind act of kindness from her. He also mentions professor Burriss Young, who was the Associate Dean of freshmen at the time and lived in Mass Hall. Burriss was an archeologist, and he invited students to tea in his apartment filled with archeological artifacts. This made his first year at Harvard a magical experience. Greg, coming from LA, idealized Harvard. He had a wonderful time in Cabot House, and Greg believes that these experiences will be a lasting memory for him.  Timestamps: 04:44: Early Career and UN Experience 09:31: Transition to Corporate Law and Family Life  22:55: Return to Education and Teaching Career  30:10: Life in Southern France and Cultural Adjustments  40:37: Personal Reflections and Professional Growth  45:02: Memorable Experiences and Influences from Harvard    Links: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gregorymose/ Stunt Road, by Gregory Mose: https://amzn.to/46Orq4X The American College of the Mediterranean: https://www.acmfrance.org/ Greg's Blog: https://quercychronicles.wordpress.com/ Featured Non-profit: The featured non-profit of this week's episode is recommended by Keith Quinn who reports: “Hi.

What do mullets, SpongeBob stick-and-pokes, and foil-wrapped sandwiches have in common? According to this week's guest, London writer Clive Martin, they're all hallmarks of a new type of food-obsessed, young urban professional that Clive calls the “defining person-type of 2025.” You know the type: people who queue up around the block for hours for a taste of the latest Instagram-viral, cartoonishly gigantic Italian sandwiches, in a neighborhood where the old school Italian sandwich shops are being displaced. Clive calls these people “The Normans,” after a North London cafe-restaurant they frequented for its loving homages to greasy-spoon staples like chippy teas and chicken fingers. But it's a subculture that transcends international borders, at least in the English speaking world: a distinctly bro-y strain of contemporary foodie culture fueled by viral images of oozing cheeseburgers, indie rock music, Anthony Bourdain hagiography, and upscale, farm-to-table recreations of working class and immigrant food traditions. The plan their weekends around new eateries, walk around wearing restaurant merch, and secretly wish they could they could quit their fintech job and start over as Carmy from The Bear. Clive is a former colleague of ours from VICE, and one of our favorite observers of contemporary culture—especially when it comes to cities and gentrification. We brought him on to discuss his article for VICE, titled “Meet the Normans,” and how food supplanted music, film, and art as the dominant mode of cultural consumption among young people. We also get into the subculture's nature as a kind of masculine reaction to other strains of millennial yuppie food culture, how both the food internet and the bro internet are reshaping our cities, and how the rising cost of living is pushing the gentrification cycle into exurban areas like Upstate New York, Margate, and Joshua Tree. Finally, we share some of our favorite, decidedly not-Norman restaurants in London, Philly, and LA that are still hanging on.Follow Clive on X @clive_mart1nRead more by Clive:“Urban sprawlers: How city folk ruined the countryside” (The Face)“Ketamine, crime, and chaos: Life in a London party slum” (VICE)Other relevant reads:“Welcome to Neo New York, where everything feels old school but isn't” by Emilie Friedlander (VICE)“We are all foodies now” by Steven Phillips-Horst (Spike Art) This is a public episode.

"You're supposed to be striving for more, but also be really pleased with what you've got... You're never supposed to be seen wanting. You're supposed to be just filled with gratitude for everything that you have, but also constantly trying." -Amy LaroccaListen in as Dr. Jennifer Reid chats with Amy Larocca, former New York Magazine fashion director and author of How to Be Well: Navigating Our Self-Care Epidemic, One Dubious Cure at a Time. Amy pulls back the curtain on how the wellness industry has become the new fashion industry—using the same aspirational marketing tactics to make women feel perpetually inadequate.If you've ever felt guilty for being "just fine" or pressured to optimize every aspect of your life, this episode is your permission slip to stop. Amy's journey from fashion journalism to wellness investigation reveals the dangerous messaging targeting women and offers a refreshing antidote to optimization culture.Key Quotes:On the pressure to optimize:"It feels irresponsible to be satisfied with fine... especially if you're a woman, it's like, okay, well, what about my family? Like, who am I, if I'm saying that's okay. Should be trying to optimize at all times."On the myth of returning to yourself:"The idea that the self is fixed...if I could piece together what this self that we're endlessly being sold promises...but it's not a sustainable idea of itself."On wellness as the new status symbol:"Fashion was becoming less exclusive, which meant people interested in aspiration had to find something more exclusive. And weirdly, it became health. Do you know this doctor? I have better health than you."On the core message:"I look at my daughters and I'm like, you don't have to improve anything. And all I would wish for them is to not waste that time thinking that they're not enough... you're so more than enough."About the Guest:Amy Larocca is an award-winning journalist who spent 20 years at New York Magazine as fashion director and editor at large. Her writing has appeared in The New York Times, Vogue, Town & Country, and The London Review of Books. She lives with her family in New York and North London.

From a working-class childhood in Tottenham to the Cabinet table, David Lammy's path to becoming Foreign Secretary was anything but straightforward. Raised by a single mother after his father disappeared when he was twelve, David's early life was shaped by absence, ambition and a fierce sense of justice.In this deeply personal conversation with James O'Brien, David opens up about the chaos of his childhood, the teachers and parish priests who changed his life, and the duality of growing up between two worlds- North London and a Peterborough choir school. He reflects on the trauma of police harassment, the fear of prison that haunted his youth, and the rage and hope that drove him to become a barrister and, eventually, an MP.They discuss what it means to represent a place like Tottenham, the emotional toll of public service, and the long shadow of imposter syndrome- even as a Cabinet minister. With disarming honesty, David revisits his father's alcoholism, the moment he chose not to see him before he died, and how he finally shook off the feeling he didn't belong- only when he became Foreign Secretary.From LA Law dreams to Harvard halls, David charts the improbable course that brought him to Number 10. And he reveals why, despite the calls for him to run for PM, he's convinced he's exactly where he's meant to be.Now at the heart of British foreign policy during a time of global instability- from Ukraine, to Sudan and the continuing crisis in Gaza- David also shares the limits and frustrations of diplomacy, the responsibility of not being complicit, and the moral weight of trying to end a war that feels impossible to stop.

He gathered the lost, the lonely, the grieving—and turned their need for kindness into a nightmare. A trusted figure, a secret obsession, and a trail of bodies flushed down London's drains.Between 1978 and 1983, Dennis Nilsen—known as the Muswell Hill Murderer—lured dozens of vulnerable young men, many of them gay and homeless, into his North London flats. What began as offers of shelter, company, even a date, devolved into strangulation, necrophilia, and gruesome rituals of dissection and disposal. In Part 2, we follow the chilling unraveling of Nilsen's double life: the domestic facade, the mounting odor beneath floorboards, and his tril. As we peel back layers of homophobia, isolation, and queerness twisted into violence, we confront how society failed its queer and queer-adjacent victims in this unsolved LGBTQ+ mystery.Hosted by Jordi and Brad, Beers With Queers brings chilling crimes, queer stories, and twisted justice to light, all with a cold one in hand. Press play, grab a drink, and join us as we uncover the darkest corners of LGBTQ+ history.

On the surface, what the wellness industry is offering feels like an antidote to our fragmented and fast-paced lives. Influencers and companies use words like "mindfulness" or “whole foods” or “self care” to get our stressed out, burnt out buy in. But, somewhere along the line those promises start to morph into luxury services, expensive memberships and supplements you never knew you needed. In her book “How to Be Well” former fashion journalist Amy Larocca explores the blurred line between healing and branding in a $6 trillion dollar industry.We discuss:Why our current wellness craze mirrors 1930s pre-Nazi GermanyHow Abraham Flexner completely changed how we teach medicine in the US for better – and for worseWhy the spiritual and community void left by declining religious participation leads people to look to the wellness industry for bothAmy says what attracts people to the modern fitness class has parallels to religious practices:“So if you look at what happens in ritual religious gatherings… You see a lot of that replicated in a lot of these boutique fitness settings. You have ritual, you have music, you have ecstatic movement, you have charismatic leaders, you have a sermon. And these sermons have increasingly moved away from talk of muffin tops and bikini bodies and losing that whatever it is, to kindness, community, thinking about your place in the world, thinking about taking the energy that you are building up in that room and spreading it forward. ”Relevant LinksBuy Amy's book “How to Be Well: Navigating Our Self-Care Epidemic, One Dubious Cure at a Time”Read this Wikipedia page on Martine Rothblatt's robot replica of her wife BinaCheck out this article on the impact of the Flexner report on US medicineRead the book “McMindfulness” Amy mentions in the episodeSign up for Lamar's SoulCycle classAbout Our GuestAmy Larocca is an award-winning American journalist.

The Caregiver's Journal hosted by Lance A. Slatton with Cindy (PT) & Christina (ST) Hardin-Weiss.   The Caregiver's Journal is the show where we are sharing the caregiving experiences, stories, and wisdom of family caregivers.   Chapter 14 - "Caregiver Support":   About Heidi Lee Cross:   Heidi Lee Cross is a North London-based copywriter, poet, and caregiver. She shares a home with her partner, 12-year-old son, and their cherished dog Bailey. After graduating with a BA Hons Degree in Drama & Theatre Arts in 1996, Heidi embarked on a television career that spanned two decades.   Starting as an intern with Planet 24's The Big Breakfast, she progressed through roles as a runner, researcher, bulletin presenter, and eventually studio and location producer across various television networks. Her passion for writing led her to transition into a successful copywriting career. In 2023, Heidi published a poignant collection of poems about parenthood titled Mum of a Boy.   Her caregiving journey began in 2017 after her father's unexpected passing, which left her to support her mother as she faced early cognitive decline and an Alzheimer's diagnosis. This deeply personal experience inspired her second book, Milk Tulips, a blend of stories, poetry, practical advice, and insights. The book serves as a companion for caregivers navigating the complexities of dementia, especially those raising young children at the same time. Heidi hopes her work provides comfort and encouragement to those facing similar challenges. (both books available on Amazon in hardback, paperback and for Kindle).   About Marielle Molette:   Marielle Molette is a projects officer with an NHS and Social Care background, complemented by her expertise in French and Translation Studies. She lives in North London with her husband and two sons. Her most recent role as a commissioning officer for Barnet Council allowed her to use her skills to lead on various initiatives, including the national Changing Places Toilets campaign. This initiative ensures the provision of fully accessible toilets for individuals with significant disabilities, equipped with specialised facilities such as hoists and adult-sized changing tables, offering dignity and independence to those who need it most.   Passionate about creating positive change and improving the lives of others, Marielle has been a dedicated advocate and caregiver for her mother, who has lived with Alzheimer's for the past 10 years. Her journey inspired her participation in a video campaign by the Royal Free Trust, where she shared her experiences caring for her mum. This initiative aimed to improve outcomes for dementia patients in hospitals, raising awareness about the unique challenges they face, advocating for better care solutions.

Chris and Dean from The Wandering Road podcast take you back to one of the most famous — and hotly debated — hauntings in history: the Enfield Poltergeist. In the late 1970s, a modest home in North London became the epicenter of terrifying events that left investigators, journalists, and even skeptics baffled.From eerie knocking and furniture moving on its own to photographs of a young girl seemingly levitating, the Enfield case captured the world's imagination and inspired countless books, documentaries, and even The Conjuring 2. But was it truly a case of a family tormented by a poltergeist… or a cleverly staged hoax?Join Chris and Dean as they examine the evidence, sift through the myths, and share their own thoughts on what really happened inside the Hodgson family's haunted home.Support the showSOCIAL MEDIATwitter: @TWRoadpodcastIG: twroadpodcastWant to be a guest or share your paranormal experiences?

We meet iconic painter Sean Scully on the eve of his 80th birthday at his studio in North London.Over the course of his 50-year career, Sean Scully has created an influential body of work that has marked the development of contemporary abstraction. Fusing the traditions of European painting with the distinct character of American abstraction, his work combines painterly drama with great visual delicacy. Often structured around stripes or layered blocks of colour arranged on horizontal and vertical axes, the layers in his paintings attain a fine balance between calm reflection and an intrinsic vitality. A forceful, physical artist, Scully creates intentionally compelling spaces, and his art is defined by acute concentration and care, involving constant negotiation between the monumental and the intimate. While giving primary importance to the physicality of the materials he employs, his art is commanded by the idea of humanity's betterment, and at the heart of each rigorously composed work lies a near-infinite number of expressive, emotional fluctuations.During a trip to Morocco in 1969, Scully was strongly influenced by the rich colours of the region, which he translated into the broad horizontal stripes and deep earth tones that characterise his mature style. Following fellowships in 1972 and 1975 at Harvard University, he permanently relocated to New York. In the early 1980s, he made the first of several influential trips to Mexico, where he used watercolour for the first time in works inspired by the patterns of light and shadows he saw on the stacked stones of ancient walls. The experience had a decisive effect on him and prompted his decision to move from Minimalism to a more emotional and humanistic form of abstraction.Follow @SeanScullyStudio‘Sean Scully: Stories' at Bucerius Kunst Forum @BuceriusKunstForum, Hamburg, Germany is now open and runs until 30th November 2025.Thanks to Faye at Sean's studio in Tappan, NY and to all of his galleries: @KerlinGallery @ThaddaeusRopac @Lisson_Gallery Hosted on Acast.

In this episode we chat about the latest transfer developments of the summer, with Christian Norgaard and Cristhian Mosquera both linked with moves to North London, as well as the lack of anything substantial with regards the big issue of the summer – signing a striker? Are Arsenal being indecisive or just playing their cards very close to their chest, leaving us to fill in the blanks with speculation? We also have listener questions about suggested new TV coverage elements for next season, whether Ethan Nwaneri should go out on loan, Andrea Berta's negotiation techniques, Jakub Kiwior, and lots more besides.
