ShireTalk is the home for the audio content of it's sister site Little Histories recorded in the heart of the shires. You will also find 'audio specials' here that do not appear on Little Histories
Local Life & Little Histories is the home for 30 - 40 minute audios recorded on location around the UK looking at the places, people, history of the UKs towns and cities as well as the fauna and flora of the country through the eyes of the presenter.
Shiretalk lists all of the Little History audios in an easy to browse list as well as containing a number of audios created especially for ShireTalk such as ghost stories and Christmas specials.
Shiretalk also produces an Acoustic Music show featuring acoustic guitarists from around the world with music, interviews and chat. You can check out the show at Acoustic Sessions

Hi Charlie,
I've been browsing various audios on the site with differing levels of interest dependant upon the subject.
There seems to be quite an array of topics that you cover, from bats to christmas to castles to printers. Is there a particular area that you would say you have a specialist knowledge in ?
Regards
Richard

Hi Richard,
I wouldn't say that I have specialist knowledge in any of the areas, the audios were created more for fun and from the point of view of general interest than anything else.
With regards to Bats I do carry out bat surveys and bat walks and have been on a number of related training courses. Topics such as the printers, comes from working for 22 years in newspaper and magazine publishing and printing.
