Sounding the Horne

Episode 7

A new experimental podcast from Rach this month, exploring storying telling and spoken words, themes around impermanence, the pandemic, and the North South divide.

In this extended episode (don't worry, we don't mind if you take a few attempts to finish!) Rachel talks to Tosh McDonald local DN1 councillor and trade union activist to discuss socialism, the Labour Party including his thoughts on Anti semitism.

In this episode Rachel speaks out about the new mural featured in Baxter Park.  She talks about how it's the same pattern of art being imposed on communities since she was a kid and how once again local artists have been looked over for talent from London.  Doncaster has more to give  and should do better than this.

In this episode Rachel invites Raj to talk about his feelings about racism and his experience.  Off the back of the Black Lives Matter protest in Doncaster Rachel deals with the current situation and some thoughts about a way to build on the movement.

Rachel reflects on her time and Uni in London whilst looking forward to Goldsmiths and her career as an Art Therapist.  She wraps things up with an update on what’s going down in Donny during her lockdown in Barnsley.

Rachel talks about the conception of Docopolitan, it's success and the very real issues of keeping a magazine going.
