  <p>A few weeks ago, Hollywood called me.</p><p>Well, I called them.</p><p>Kate Bolger worked as a Hollywood film producer, until one day during yet another period of hopefully temporary but as always undefined unemployment, waiting until the next film employed her, she made a decision that would change her life.</p><p>She quit.</p><p>Kate then spent a while wrestling the “what ifs” and “if onlys” of her life.</p><p>In this month’s episode of pause & effect I discover why Kate then decided to open an old fashioned sweet shop and how docume...

  EP5: The Long Way Home with Becky Ullah

  Jul 18, 20261h 20mS0

  <p>Welcome to an all-new look and feel pause & effect - I hope you like it!</p><p>This month I met online with Becky Ullah, the former GP turned artist, ahead of her landmark open public exhibition.</p><p>Personally, I was absolutely over the moon to get a call with a GP to begin with, and the fact it was for more than 5 minutes felt like 1955. Questions about my rash, lumps, and whether 9 year out of date antibiotics are still okay out of the way, Becky reminded me she wasn’t a practicing doctor anymore, so I quickly ch...

  EP4: Seeing What’s Already There

  Apr 7, 20261h 1mS0

  <p>It’s back! Although in truth it never really went away, we just had some technical issues with the podcast! Episode 4 is here and it’s an insightful conversation with the London-based artist, Archie Proudfoot.</p><p>I first came to know about Archie in 2024 when I saw a print he created, which I bought and that now hangs in my office. Then something bizarre happened. I’ve been writing my new book for a couple of years now and was pondering the title. I wondered if perhaps, simply, “if” might work, seeing as the book is ultimately about how we nav...

  EP3: The Art of Time and Tradition with Droyt Soap

  Dec 16, 202551 minS0

  <p>If you’ve been around my writing and content for a while you’ll know I have a love for the slower, fuller life. Rituals and objects that remind us of a simpler time and prompt us to pause or simply slow things down.</p><p>I write with a pencil on paper, I drink loose leaf tea, I prefer candles to electric light, and I much prefer a bar of soap to plastic bottles. There’s certainly an aesthetic consideration to my choices, but there are wider environmental and character elements, too. Bars of soap are from an era wh...

  EP2: Form, Fire, and Patience: A Life in Clay with Steve Harrison

  Sep 19, 20251h 7mS0

  <p>It was, perhaps, somewhat predictable that beginning a career as a ceramic artist I would end up interviewing a potter, however, my special guest for this episode is more than a potter. </p><p>I’ve admired the work of world-renowned ceramic artist Steve Harrison for some time, whose handmade vessels have earned international acclaim for their quiet elegance and timeless character. His unique style of mostly mugs and teapots show embossed flowers, debossed sunflowers, handles delicately balanced on balls affixed to the side of mugs, kinks in delicately thin mug walls, and all finished in the ancient technique of...
