Degree over and out 🫡

I’ll post about each of my podcasts soon but here’s the full feed if you want to have a look: open.spotify.com/show/2sZa7WT...

I thought I’d start off on here by showing some fun things I’ve been doing for anyone interested!

Last year I published the first comprehensive history of The Oxford Student newspaper. There’s a copy in @bodleianlibraries.bsky.social and you can view it online here: issuu.com/theoxfordstu...
