"When you're starting a podcast, there's technical challenges, but there's also emotional challenges because you're putting yourself out there." We had that Ross O' Ceallaigh in our office a few weeks ago to talk about his excellent Green Urbanist podcast - about all things to do with nature, sustainability and the built environment. He very kindly agreed to appear on video as our Ben Gosling asked him: - why he started the podcast - how he chooses guests and topics - his relationship with his listeners - the challenges - technical and emotional - that he faces as a podcaster. "I always say that the podcast was as much for my education as anyone else's because I was always trying to educate myself around sustainability and climate change," says Ross. "I sort of sensed that that was the direction the industry needed to move into." Ross has so far produced an impressive 75 episodes of the podcast, covering topics that range from regenerative design to urban rewilding to concepts of spatial justice and 'the primal city'. Click on the pic below to listen to what Ross has to say. The video is part of our storytelling content strand, with which we're trying to support planners to become more confident and more able advocates for the profession. https://lnkd.in/grDA72dK #greenurbanism #storytelling #townplanning #urbanplanning #podcasting #advocacy
