Ormskirk Gingerbread with Anouska Lewis
Manage episode 416492196 series 2948886
Niche topic alert! Today I am
talking to Anouska Lewis about Ormskirk Gingerbread.
Anouska is the writer and presenter
of the BBC Sounds podcast Hometown Boring? The first episode
being all about Ormskirk gingerbread
We
talk about how one lands getting a podcast series on BBC Sounds in the first
place; the ingredients of Ormskirk gingerbread, the town’s pride in its
gingerbread, the gingerbread ladies who sold them at the train station in the
Victorian period, Ormskirk’s link with Liverpool’s sugar and slave trade, and
the value of having difficult conversations – amongst many other things.
