episode Bears with Hannah Gold and Sophy Henn artwork
Bears with Hannah Gold and Sophy Henn

Pack your marmalade sandwiches, because this week we're going on a bear hunt - and we're NOT scared. Hannah Gold, author of The Last Bear, and Sophy Henn, writer and illustrator of Where Bear? join Sam on a quest through the rabbit hole's bookshelves to find the best bears in children's fiction. Along the way, we discover why bears are especially good animals to draw in picture books, hear the unexpectedly horrific origin story of the teddy bear, and try to work out why bears are so over-represented in the bookshop menagerie. In short: "Bears! Why do we like 'em so much?"

Feminism in YA with Laura Bates and Holly Bourne

This week we're joined by two brilliant writers to discuss the role feminism has played in Young Adult novels. Laura Bates [https://www.instagram.com/laura_bates__/], creator of Everyday Sexism and the author of Men Who Hate Women now brings us Sisters of Sword and Shadow, an epic YA fantasy reimagining Arthurian legend with a fearless sisterhood of knights. And Holly Bourne [https://twitter.com/holly_bourneYA], bestselling author of Am I Normal Yet? and The Places I've Cried in Public, returns to our bookshelves with You Could Be So Pretty, a gripping dystopian thriller that puts modern beauty standards under the microscope. Together we talk through the challenges and opportunities YA fiction presents when engaging with feminism, and share some of our favourite recommendations for YA books that are written by and about women. -- This episode was produced by Hannah Love.

Fantasy Trilogies with Kiran Millwood Hargrave and Katherine Rundell

Down the Rabbit Hole is back for a new season! And we begin with wild and untamed adventures, courtesy of two incredible authors and friends of the podcast: Kiran Millwood Hargrave and Katherine Rundell, who join us to talk about their brand new fantasy trilogies being released this autumn: In the Shadow of the Wolf Queen [https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/geomancer-in-the-shadow-of-the-wolf-queen-book-1-kiran-millwood-hargrave/7412407?ean=9781510107816] and Impossible Creatures [https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/impossible-creatures-katherine-rundell/7356553?ean=9781408897416]. We ask - why is three the magic number? Which are the greatest children's fantasy trilogies of all time? When is a trilogy not a trilogy? And can you even call yourself a fantasy author if your book doesn't have a map at the front?

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.
Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
