Ryecast

A success in the making

April 06, 2023 • Ryecast • Season 2 • Episode 5

Sometimes making the pod I have genuinely no idea about what I'll end up talking to local people about. That's why I love Ryecast. In theory this episode is all about the first Rye Arts & Crafts Fair, but as well as hearing from the creatives and makers manning the stalls in the Community Centre about their work, we end up discussing so much more. Not least our love of Rye. And scary dolls. And neutering cats. And the Knights of the Round Table. As you do.

Plus a chat with Jackie Brooks, the organizer of the Fair. Another Ryer who had a brilliant idea and went for it.
