Join Emily and Raymond for a stroll in London’s Regent’s Park with legendary broadcaster Mark Radcliffe.
We met Mark with his gorgeous cavapoo - Arlo (who is a very good boy with a passion for squirrel chasing…) and we discussed his long history with dogs - including a black Labrador called Sabbath (best name ever!)
Mark started his broadcasting career in local radio in Manchester - and has since built a cult following as a presenter on the BBC. We chatted about how a career in radio came as a bit of a surprise for Mark, how he feels he has become more introverted through time and how he feels about his short-lived stint as the co-host of the Radio 1 breakfast show with Marc Riley.
Mark’s brilliant book Et Tu Cavapoo: A Dog’s Life In Rome - which follows Mark’s three-month sojourn in Rome - told through both Mark and Arlo’s eyes! You can get your copy here!
You can listen to Radcliffe and Maconie on BBC Radio 6 Music on Saturday and Sundays from 8-10am and The Folk Show on BBC Radio 2 on Wednesdays at 9pm
