CURRENT PROJECTS
Still Watching by Vanity Fair
Still Watching is a weekly television recap show brought to you by fine folks at Vanity Fair. From Succession to The Crown to True Detective, this podcast offers commentary and interviews with some of the biggest names in Hollywood including. Listen on Apple Podcasts.
University of Oxford Big Questions
Brought to you by the team at Oxford Sparks, I interview researchers about their work and trying to answer – the BIG QUESTIONS. Episodes include “Can you cure cancer with bubbles?,” “Will my bacon sandwich really kill me?” and “What can adult contemporary power ballads teach us about the sex lives of fruit flies?” Listen on iTunes and Soundcloud.
Featured: “Should I Take a Selfie With a Wild Animal?”
Travel companies around the world profit from some of the cruelest types of wildlife tourist attractions on earth. Whether it is riding elephants, taking selfies with tigers, or performing dolphin shows, these activities can cause lifelong suffering for wild animals. In the latest edition of the Oxford Sparks Big Questions podcast, we visit Conservation ecologist Dr. Tom Moorhouse to ask: “Should I take a selfie with a wild animal?”
Desert Island Dips
If you were trapped on a desert island, what five condiments would you bring with you? This is the impossible dilemma facing co-host Tom Wiggins and me on our podcast Desert Island Dips. Listen on Apple Podcasts.
Featured: “Condiments: A Year in Review”
Emily goes deep into her Google search history to bring some weird condiment based news that didn't make it into the past 30 episodes of Desert Island Dips. Things like: a Long Island school district that's limited condiments to two sachets per child and a crime involving a landscaper, a sex tape and maple syrup. OH! And a Melbourne hacker space that has created a Saucebot.
