spring pd - golden hour in the weeks before solstice (photo taken at 8.30pm - the light😍!) - one of the best things abt being freelance is having the opportunity to try expensive restaurants via the affordable weekday lunch menu. Pictured: fallow. - a fave from the Rauschenberg exhibition - detail of cool artwork from Nick Smith, created for Trussell Trust to auction off. When you see it in person you only see the squares and text - But when you pull back it looks like a pixelated soup tin - another lunch menu - Bibendum, which I found out is also the name of the Michelin man (seen here on the butter dish. Restaurant is also in former Michelin building). - ok fine I admit it I didn’t mind the Harmony Korine art exhibition - view from Blackfriars bridge - Barbara Kruger exhibition (like the work, bad show though)

THIS IS MADE WITH AI: Deepfake of Nigel Farage & Keir Starmer beefing on Minecraft has fooled a LOT of people. The voices are generated AI recreations, and the faces have had the mouths manipulated to match the speech. From the new Pod Save the UK with @cocobyname & @MrNishKumar .

I’ll be at the trouble club (the women’s club) election night event, helping make sense of the result with Marina Purkiss and other fab women commentators tbc. Come if you fancy it girlies, there will be nibbles! Link in bio

I’ve written today’s tv cover - an interview with Gentleman Jack / Doctor Foster / Vigil actor (and icon!), Suranne Jones, about her new C4 doc on witch trials. We cover the resurgence of mysticism, being a trans ally, and why she needed to start her own production company to finally be given her dues. Link via my Guardian author page (in bio!)

lovely surprise to find us in Guardian’s podcast newsletter as one of five of the best election listens out there (US and UK!)

Yesterday I started a new gig, as one of Newsnight’s new ‘cast’ of commentators (the new format launched this week!). Obviously it’ll be a lot of politics given the election but also hoping to bring my culture/features journalism to the show if I can. Watch this space! And don’t worry, I’ll only be on once or twice a month, so I won’t be able to fully lower the tone with Fast & Furious references 😂

Incredible to win host of the year at The Podcast Show yesterday 🥹 The UKAN awards are particularly special as you can’t put yourself/your show forward, so to get this endorsement from my peers out of the blue, after only a year of podcasting is just wow 🥹😭🏆🥇💕 Also, tres chic trophy no?! (as modelled by my colleague Niccy)
