Podcast feedCamden Fringe 2019: 'No Water In the Jungle' comes
‘I’m going to tell you a story’, says the story teller. ‘Get on with it!’ say the children. Is the tortoise always the villian? Will the lion be the hero? Co-operation is both the key to the story and to how freelance photographer Ifeoma Onyefulu came to have a play for children, in the Camden Fringe Festival.
‘No Water in the Jungle’ has been adapted by someone who comes from a long line of storytellers in Nigerian Igbo tradition.

Humans of Camden - Episode 5
Humans of Camden’ is a podcast series for Camden Community Radio inspired by the photography project, ‘Humans of New York’. In it, Bonny walks around different parts of Camden asking passersby to talk to her for 5 minutes. The aim is to capture a cross-section of street life in this diverse and eclectic borough of London.
The fifth episode was recorded in Granary Square and the surrounding area. Bonny asks: “Why are you here?”, “Do you have a daily ritual that is important to you?” “What’s the best conversation you’ve had recently”, “What advice have you found helpful that you’d share with others?” (etc.)

Arthur and Oscar: An interview with Anne Gaelan
In a book reviewing the life and work of Oscar Wilde, Arthur Ransome (author of Swallows and Amazons) described the persecuted writer as “a great man”. Little did he know, the book would lead to him being sued by Wilde’s lover, and shunned by society. Local filmmaker Anne Gaelan speaks about the short film she created chronicling the event, and how she hopes it’ll shed a light on LGBTQ+ matters throughout history.

Episode 4: What became of the hospital building after WWI
These 4 podcasts explore the Legacy of the Endell Street Military Hospital, the only British army hospital to have been established and run by women during WWI. Opened in 1915 on the site of a former Victorian workhouse by Suffragette doctors Flora Murray and Louisa Garrett Anderson, its staff of 180 women treated over 26,000 in-patients and performed over 7,000 surgical operations.
In 2018 a group of local volunteers came together to learn research and recording skills as part of a Heritage Lottery funded project, and they created these podcasts to share their findings about what happened to the hospital and its female staff members after the war ended.
