A New Zealander called Linda visits Sheffield for a month and tells us what she thinks! Appx 18 mins
2025/08/20
Linda and her husband are doing a tour of the UK, France and Sweden and for one month of that they ended up dog sitting in Beauchief, Sheffield. Whilst they were there Linda posted all about it with a daily, positive, image and wordage on BlueSky (@lindaholman.bsky.social) which we liked so we thought we'd have a chat with her.
She also does a blog thewayfaringpath.com
and a YouTube (shorts) channel of the same name.
with one clip being here https://www.youtube.com/shorts/mzM-GbkFqNA
So have a peek at all of those.

The Tramlines blurb
"With debut single ‘You Don’t Want Me Enough’ earning her a top 10 spot in both Song Academy’s Young Songwriter Competition 2024 and Citrus Records Songs of the Year list, Birmingham based, Sheffield born Daisy Peacock is already making waves in the local indie pop scene – having recently supported acts such as Alfie Jukes, daydreamers, and Blondes.
For her live shows, Daisy is joined by a 4 piece band to bring her diverse catalogue of relatable and catchy pop music to life! ‘They were a funky 90’s indie rock machine! Alanis Morrisette vibes!’ – Counteract magazine
Second single ‘Valentine’s Day’ blends a unique production and heart-wrenching lyrics with a soaring chorus to create an anthem for the universal feeling of unrequited love. ‘Incredibly addicting’- Whoisblank blog

18m 9 secs Sarah from Sheffield Digital and Mandy from Pockets for Women about a digital mentoring scheme.
2023/02/09
This is an interview with the above named about the digital mentoring scheme whereby Sheffield Digital pair those experienced in the world of the digital with those less so.
The Elf is has been paired with Mandy from https://www.pocketsforwomen.co.uk/ as she has stacks of experience in making websites but much less so in promoting websites digitally. Mandy was frustrated by the clothing industry and the way it makes so many clothes, for women, that don't have pockets so she has made https://www.pocketsforwomen.co.uk/ and has linked up with various (many famous) companies to display the products they have that do have such options.

This episode is totally unedited as requested by Ant as he doesn;t like podcasts to seem overly polished and unnatural. Saved me loads of work that did.
Ant talks about how was involved in some "naughty" stuff earlier in his life, how he saw the error of that lifestyle, what he has done to change it and how he is now trying to help others and lead them away from that same life plan.
Ant can be found on the following platforms

Episode 36 with Aaron from Steelmekker Magazine. 23 minutes 14 secs long.
2021/05/24
Really enjoyed recording this one with Aaron. Lots of chat about the Steelmekker Magazine that he produces and lots of meandering into all things Sheffield as well as a fair bit of nonsense. Listen out for the bit where Aaron says that Elf is "a natural" with my Twitter repartee
