Interesting East Dulwich interviewees for a kids podcast - suggestions please!


Recommended Posts

Among my jobs I make podcasts. Perhaps not surprisingly my kids are keen to make some podcasts too and this seemed like a good summer holidays project.

I've had them on my politics podcast once or twice before interviewing MPs and we thought we'd like an interview section of whatever we cook up over the summer.

I've approached Helen Hayes to come on but I was hoping to widen the field a bit. Can anyone recommend interesting locals we could talk to? Could be celebrities who live in the area and might be amenable but also just folk from round about with interesting tales to tell and who would get on with kids interviewing them. eg, I'm wondering about the chap from Rye Books who could talk about his favourite books and make recommendations etc.

All and any ideas very gratefully received. (You'll get a shoutout on the podcast as thanks!)

How about the new CEO of the Dulwich Estate on her plans to develop the area?


People who live in the Dulwich Estate almshouses.


The community greenhouses in Brockwell Park or people at local allotments.


Friends of Nunhead Cemetery.


The person working in the ticket office at a local station.


History and residents of the Peabody Estate in Herne Hill.

    • To be honest, pal, it's not good being a fan of a local business and then not go there. One on hand, the barber shop literally next door to Romeo Jones started serving coffee. The Crown and Greyhound and Rocca serve coffee. Redemption Coffee opened up not far away, and then also Megan's next door to that. DVillage was serving coffee (but wasn't very popular), as was Au Ciel (which is). Maybe also Heritage Cheese, I don't know. There's also Flotsam and Jetsam doing coffee and sandwiches at Dulwich Picture Gallery in the other direction. The whole of Dulwich Village serves coffee. And yet on the other hand, there are enough punters to support all good coffee shops. With the exception of Rocca and Megan's (which are both big spaces) and C&G (which does coffee like everything else - slow and with bad service), all these places regularly get queues out the door. Gail's often has big queues and yet very few people crossed the street to Romeo Jones (which was much better)... Half the staff at Gail's are perfectly fine and efficient. The other half are pretty offhand and rude. It's certainly not welcoming or friendly service. But they're certainly hard working, and no doubt raking the money in for Luke Johnson...
    • Well according to a newspaper article, Gail’s is opening 10 shops in London,,, yup Dulwich is named 10/5 I seem to recall with others in London opening at 7 am…!, Guess that is to capture workers coming off all night shift. Offering free mince pies until they run out.. So very sad to hear about Romeo Jones… been a customer since the opening, any idea where Patrick has gone or details… please pm me.    What is going to be in its place…. Will be around in Jan…umm village is changing….
    • interesting the police said "the car was in demand at the moment" what make/model is that?
    • Just be careful to know exactly what they cover and the limits. i use Many Pets and Medivet, as I think one of the vets is exceptionally good. Some of the NHV are, but I’ve had a couple I’ve not liked at all.  I need consistency and to feel that they actually care more about the animals than the money.
