Had such a stimulating, inspiring few days @sheffdocfest. Some highlights:
And can’t stop thinking about @MyFriendLanre, the most affecting portrait of male friendship I’ve seen on screen. I loved it.
Loved moderating this panel about podcasting ethics with @chriskasick and @saraobeidat. Chris’s brilliant debut (!) Citizen Sleuth should be required viewing for anyone making a true crime series.
Was also thrilled to be part of this conversation about the relationship between podcasts and films with @leannealie, @joshbakerstory, @smoketrailprod, @FredrikGertten and @bbcstoryville
My favourite writer interviewing my other favourite writer! I also enjoyed the breakfast leftovers…
Went for a Turkish breakfast on Green Lanes with Deborah Levy, for the New York Times. Truly a dream assignment. Thank you also to Vicky Krieps, Xiaolu Guo and @HamishH1931 for speaking to me for this profile nytimes.com/2023/06/02/arts/…

Lots of people are asking when the next Multitrack fellowship is.
We’ve taken the decision to not run a fellowship this year so that we can grow and evolve in a sustainable way 1/3

In 1942, then five-year-old George Takei and his family were among the 120,000 Japanese Americans removed from their homes and imprisoned without trial.
In History's Secret Heroes, Helena Bonham Carter shines a light on extraordinary stories from World War Two.
Scripts written by not-so-secret hero @alexvtunzelmann and theme music from the ever brilliant @jeremywarmsley. Great to have my king @ArlieAdlington on the mix!
Here's a short video of Ep 5: @GeorgeTakei and the American Internment Camps bbc.com/reel/video/p0fqggwq/…
It's spring outside and I still feel like I'm floating on air from @AxelKacoutie's marvellous @InTheDarkRadio event last night.
So proud of the team on Obscene: the Dublin Scandal. We're nominated in the Podcast: Non-fiction category at the @BanffMedia #RockieAwards alongside some other brilliant series. rockies.playbackonline.ca/no… @bbcstudios @BBCSounds
Can't stop thinking about the storytelling in You Didn't See Nothin from @invinst. Part investigation, part memoir, it's the best podcast I've heard all year. usgaudio.com/podcast/you-did… Shouts to @sarahegeis and to @Ellie_McDowall for the recommendation.
