Hello!

I've wanted to do an episode on Street Art for a while, as it's a subject that's always appealed to me. I'll often see if there's a street art tour in a place I'll be travelling to, and I'm always veering off down side-alleys in search of it when I'm walking through a city. As a result, this episode is my longest yet.

Topics discussed in this episode are: * Leg Update and other housekeeping * A brief history of street art * What counts as street art * Why do people like street art * The art industry sucks * Community and Belonging * Street art in Brussels * The Stockholm Metro * Glasgow's Mural Trail and the SWG3 community * Street art tours * Wall murals in Palestine and Berlin * Street art in Chile * Council-funded public art projects around the world * Examples of unusual public art * Public art in Brussels * Yarn-bombing * The famous Glasgow traffic cone Links to people mentioned in the episode (and IG accounts of street artists): Amanda Kendle's podcast on street art SWG3's website  Instagram accounts of some street artists include: Inti Rogue One  Cuibi Creaturi Dragute  Epod  Morf  Smug Contributions in this episode are from: Sarah Irving - The Urban Wanderer Amanda Kendle - Not a Ballerina Kate-Frankie Brennan - This Could Lead To Anywhere Momtaz Begum-Hossain - Hello Colour and my friend Adam who has no real internet presence

A PDF transcript of this episode is available.

As always, if you have anything to say about the topic, or indeed about my podcasting in general, leave a comment or let me know. I have a newsletter with extra content, and where I'll be mentioning future podcast episodes if you want to make your own contribution.

I also have a Patreon - if you like what you hear, and want to access exclusive content (or just to show your appreciation), then head on over.

Until next time, bye for now. :)
