Oh là là, we went to France! For Celeste, it was the culmination of a lifetime dream. For Gerard, it was a chance to open a new chapter in his Travel Collection. Did stamp nerdery ruin the holiday… or is fossicking for vintage postcards allowed when you’re in Paris? And how many neighbouring countries can one couple lunch in? All that and more on the latest episode of the stamp collecting podcast for people who don’t collect stamps!

When Lizzie met Eddie: Stamps Aren't Cool, Episode 3

The final British stamp releases under the reign of Queen Elizabeth included issues celebrating Iron Maiden and the X-Men. They’re vibrant, colourful and fun. So why do some collectors see this moment as their chance to close their albums and head for the door? In this episode, Celeste pokes through Gerard’s album of 20th-century British stamps as they discuss the changing role of Britain’s so-called ‘special stamps’. They also take a look at the new definitive Charles III stamps as they replace the iconic Machin definitive stamps of Elizabeth II.

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.
