Taking a dive into the impact of arts and creativity.
What is it that makes us human, what makes us unique, and what adds value to your life? Often the answer to all of these questions can be traced back to our connection to arts, culture and creativity. The ‘Arts’ is often seen as a high brow endeavour that only some enjoy and partake in but it is in everyone’s lives, in some way. We all listen to music, read books, watch movies and connect with creativity for our enjoyment or mental health. This podcast gets to the heart of what the arts is and what it means. It will explore different topics with people who have devoted their lives to the arts in some way, to understand what drives them and how they connect with the arts on a personal level.
Discussions will include the importance of a good play, how jazz can penetrate your soul, the role artists play in society, what compels people to leave their money to the local art gallery, why festivals just hit different, and how feminist sci-fi is a gateway drug.
Interesting people with interesting ideas join me for interesting conversations.

Books are such an important part of life. It's how we understand the world better and stretch our imagination. Whether it's only reading books about WWII conflicts or sticking to romance novels, all genres have their place and audience.
This week I talk to Jayne Cleave, librarian and good friend, about her love of feminist sci fi and big alien epics. Sci fi isn't for me - but through this chat, i may have found a way in and realised that a lot of books do fall into this genre.
We also discuss the importance of of libraries in communities, beyond being a place where you loan books, and how Jayne's career took a journey from arts marketing to publishing to working in libraries.
There are many books mentioned in this conversation and you can find them all at heregoesnothingpod.substack.com we've also included a list from Jayne of the books she forgot to mention…
