Anglotopia Podcast: Return to Britain - How to get the Oxford Experience Yourself
Loading
/

In this second special podcast recorded while I was in England last month, I try to answer all the questions I received about my Oxford course. How can you have the Oxford Experience yourself? How much does it cost? What does it include? What is the accommodation and meal time like? What kind of classmates can you expect? What kind of tours and excursions are on offer? This is a great overall review of the entire Oxford Experience offered by Christ Church through the Oxford Department of Continuing Education.

In this special podcast recorded while I was in England last month, I talk about my travel experiences, traveling in the post-COVID age, dealing with the chaos of Heathrow, what it’s like to be in England after four years, and some first impressions of my time in Oxford. FYI: This podcast was recorded in late July, but I was not able to release it until now.

Anglotopia Podcast: Episode 13 - Catching Up On All Things British and British Travel in 2022
Loading

After a long, unexpected hiatus, the Anglotopia Podcast has returned! In this episode we catch up on what’s going on with Anglotopia, we talk about our exciting new Union Jack Lightbox product and how it came about, then we talk about the resumption of ‘normal’ travel to Britain in 2022 – and talk about our own travel plans. Plus we lift the lid on the exciting new books we have planned to come out over the next few months. We hope to begin regularly recording new podcasts going forward.

Please note: the camera turned off halfway through recording us on video, so we have decided to just publish this as audio-only (and may only do audio-only going forward as it makes it easier to record).

In the twelfth episode of the Anglotopia Podcast, we discuss British Summer Time. Join us for a discussion for all things British Summer, included fun stories from our past trips in summertime Britain. There will be rain and sun. And tips for how you can make your own summer a little more British even though none of us can currently travel there!

Editor’s Note: This was recorded in June 2020 so might seem slightly out of date. But we haven’t been able to release it to now for lots of reasons that are too boring to go into.

To celebrate the launch of Jonathan’s new book Adventures in Anglotopia: The Makings of an Anglophile, we did a special Facebook Live session where we talked about the book, how it came about, the writing process and then I did a reading from it about Stately Homes then took questions. We’ve extracted the audio so you can listen to it if you like. 

Details on the book are at http://adventuresinanglotopia.com

You can watch the original stream here on YouTube, if you prefer that.
