E57 Is Cat Soup Made of Cats? With Sophie Sconcia

E60 Splash Special! With Chris Romer-Lee And Kathryn Ferry

Location: Holland Park, London Guests: Chris Romer-Lee and Kathryn Ferry Okay a lovely special episode for you here with TWO guests for the price of one. The three of us were joined by Peigh Asante of the fab Swim Dem Crew for a talk I hosted on Jun 3 2025. It was a spin off from the Design Museum's Splash! Exhibition and was organised by the amazing Imelda Dooley Hunter. So me, Chris and Kathryn had this chat outside the Design Museum before we went in for the evening talk event. Everything was so fun and if you love lidos, are passionate about access to public space and the social make up of beaches, or if you love art deco pool architecture, then this is one for you. Check out Kathryn's new book about the Seaside, Chris' books about Sea Pools and forthcoming Diving Boards deep dive and why not - my Lido book too! Enjoy :) As always GRAZIE to Lucia Scazzocchio, Luke Jones (do listen to his brilliant podcast https://southgirlproductionmusic.com/category/podcast-production/ [https://southgirlproductionmusic.com/category/podcast-production/]), Rosie Wilby (https://www.instagram.com/breakupmonologues/?hl=en [https://www.instagram.com/breakupmonologues/?hl=en]) and Mae-Li Evans for encouragement, production support and advice. There would be no podcast without these people. THANKS GUYS.   Park Date is about mixing the silly with the serious so do listen out for the original comedy we're slotting in between and after the interviews (which are hopefully pretty funny themselves).  Do review, subscribe and like. Namecheck as many trees as possible in your reviews and make them as surreal as possible - I have a very nice prize to give out to the writer of the funniest review.
