I play the drums, and the guitar. I compose and produce music. I edit podcasts. I also write novels. I probably sound quite annoying, but I’m not (really).

Podcasts, podcasts everywhere… but how many of them are any good? I’ve been putting together podcasts for fashion guru Suzy Menkes and Vogue’s jewellery expert Carol Woolton for a while now. We try to make them as entertaining, listenable and snappy as possible… one of the reasons they now have thousands of listeners all over the world. From fascinating conversations with hip fashion designers like Christopher Kane, to in-depth historical explorations of the jewellery world, they’re well worth a listen.

I’ve also produced a luxury travel podcast for high-end travel company Carrier, the nine episode podcast for my band, Fink, and a music-related podcast with my producer cousin Chris Sheldon called Game Changing, where we interview our favourite bands and producers, including Field Music, This Is The Kit, Flood and Stephen Street.

And if you have an idea for a podcast yourself… let me know, and I can help make it for you.

Here are some of my favourite episodes.
