In April 2025, I launched Series 1 of the Astro-Insights podcast as a way to explore some of the themes and content I’ve written about on this blog over the last 12 years in more depth, and from different perspectives.
So far, we’ve featured a number of well-known and well respected authors, practitioners and academics, including Dr Patrick Curry, Tobias Churton, Christeen Skinner and Rod Suskin.
