Ryecast will bring together lifetime Ryers and DFLs (Down from Londoners) in conversation, as well as getting to know the people who make Rye tick. And whilst the focus will be Rye and its residents, the podcast will also talk to some of the thousands who visit each year to find out why they love Rye too.The podcast will be working closely with colleagues at Rye News on story ideas, plus Ryecast will be another way Rye News readers to be part of the debate about life in the town.

Host

James Stewart

I’ve worked in radio and TV for over thirty years – from local radio to huge events like Children In Need or Comic Relief – but I’m happiest out recording real life stories face-to- face. I’ve lived in Rye for just over a year but have been visiting for decades. I’ve always been fascinated by the town’s history and characters.
