THe last custodian podcast

Thanks to funding from Arts Council England I have created a six episode podcast to sit alongside the printed version of The Last Custodian. In the podcast I read the book in full across six episodes and engage in thought provoking conversations with poets, writers and other disability rights activists around creative process, access issues in the arts and how to survive an apocalypse. The Last Custodian podcast was produced by Rowan Bishop. Transcripts of each episode were transcribed by Elizabeth McGeown and are available below.
