Um, and, uh, on that, uh, yo man, this is like recording of my 50th episode. Like. 50. So a big up despite Spudcaster and Baobulb being there, like they listen to my voice for 15 weeks.
[00:00:34] Right. Um, yeah, I'm sure. I'm sure they certainly have an ear full, um, big up to them for all of that, that I think that's quite an achievement for both of us. Um, And yeah, man, as you know, I've been talking up the whole thing of a giveaway, which I'm doing a 52nd episode and more beautiful follow at the outro.
[00:00:57] Uh, before we move on to today's episode, uh, first of all, big ups to violet. For coming through, uh, last week, like Mulberry dreams. Uh, really interesting, man. I think I really enjoyed speaking to, uh, um, about, uh, yeah man, I thought the way we, uh, spoke last week that we'll be back, uh, both as a brand or as a writer, you know what actually.
[00:01:24] Great. It was great. Uh, so thanks for coming. Um, um, to that, and on that, we're gonna kind of keep on that, um, lighter theme. Should I call it or at least today's and Allison barber and the writer, um, and she tours all the way from Bulawayo. So we spoke in to Bryony, Rheem. Order them. I'm not sure if I pronounce his surname correctly, we'll find out.
[00:01:49] Yeah, man. It should be in pronouncing names. Yeah. Um, yo man, she's pretty interesting. I she's, I'm going to be talking a little bit about, well, She's a, um, she's an award winning, um, I'm a writer and, um, she's just released her second book. Um, my second, um, novel and we'll be unpacking both that novel, but also a first one, the, of the September side and or this.
[00:02:11] September 2nd, it was better this way. Just thing, because the book actually got translated into Arabic. So that was, I find that really interesting. So we talking a little bit about that latest book or come to task, um, a little bit about highlighting what inspired and you know, she's based in Zim. Um, and you know what I, on this platform, I'm always interested in, uh, focusing on the artists.
[00:02:29] Processes and how they pretty much take their environment and interpret what, uh, you know, what's happening around them. And, and, and like, do you, my brothers and sisters from Zimbabwe, you know, like I've got much love for them, what they're doing there. So, uh, we will unpack a little bit about that if that, and to see what future project to use and so on and so on.
[00:02:50] And so I'm, yeah, I'm at least we'll back, um, or rather look forward to all of that. And, um, Yeah, I'll talk to you guys at the end of the episode, uh, with advice for future episodes and yeah, man, that's the 50th one. So I feel, I feel kind of that's a long week, 50, 50 weeks is a long time. It's a, it's a long time given that, um, you know, like this, um, this art thing, um, you know, we pretty much work as freelancers and to do something for 50 weeks on, on one, I think is quite a phenomenal achievement.
[00:03:21] So yeah, I mean, I think it's all the new listeners. Um, you know, and remember, you can always catch me on all my, uh, social media pages. So that's, where's the Pepper at Twitter. Twitter, Facebook and Instagram underscore Pepper underscore. So, yeah, but I'll, uh, talk more about all those other interesting things at the end of the episode.
