Welcome to The Big Smoke Variety Show! In this episode, "Wild City, Ghost Town", we bring together two outstanding guests for an unforgettable evening of urban wildlife, poetry, and community activism.
We welcome Florence Wilkinson, writer, filmmaker, and co-founder of the birdsong recognition app Warblr. Florence will share insights from her acclaimed book Wild City: Encounters with Urban Wildlife, exploring the hidden natural world of cities and the fascinating stories that lie within.
And, we dive into the captivating world of Nigerian-born poet Fuad Busoir, a rising star in the poetry scene. Winner of UniSlam 2024, Fuad’s powerful piece Ghost Town moved judges to tears, and his work consistently explores the physical and emotional spaces that shape us. As the founder of the community For Black Boys, Fuad is passionate about creating spaces for Black men to express, heal, and grow.
