Award winning Political Journalist and Radio 4 broadcaster, with her 'Today' programme Alex's favourite thing to listen to - the bright and bee-rilliant Martha Kearney joins Alex for a chat about her most treasured pieces of jewellery! From an epic charm bracelet from a Varinasi market documenting a year of travelling in her thirties, to a pair of striking Minoan Bee Earrings celebrating a blended passion for pollinators and antiquity!

Listen in, as old friends and fellow bee enthusiasts Alex and Martha have a lively discussion about a host of fascinating things - from her experiences in Afghanistan and the Middle East as a BBC journalist, to her Northern Irish Great Grandfather’s lemonade fortune, and how journalism acts as a licence for the curious to get to know people’s stories and share them with others!
