2. Fresh Caught Haddock

Available for 36 days

“When George Floyd was killed and seemingly overnight all of New York came to smell like fresh plywood, I thought of Schenectady…” “Fresh Caught Haddock” is David’s response to the BLM marches which took place in New York City, during the Covid pandemic and following the death of George Floyd. It was a period of tremendous social upheaval across the United States but not without humour, and in this story, David reflects characteristically on his experiences as a wry observer on the foibles of human behaviour. The programme wraps up with a brief question and answer session with the studio audience, where we learn what David thinks about learning foreign languages. Producer: Steve Doherty A Giddy Goat production for BBC Radio 4
