In the latest podcast we discuss a new archaeology exhibition in Madrid and also Ricard Terré's retrospective in Canal Isabel II. 

Terré was an accomplished photographer who took shots that celebrated the universal themes that connected us all. He was active for numerous decades and all across the world. 

We finish the podcast by talking about our blog, which you can read here:

This week we discuss the role of music - especially harps - in movies and myths, focusing on the film The Burmese Harp and the legend of the Irish god Dagda.

With Lavapies and Embajadores being voted the 'coolest' neighbourhood in the world, we take a look at what that actually means, both as a concept and for the people living there. 

In part 3, the person we refer to is Daryl Davis, star of the documentary Accidental Courtesy.

This week we talk about moving, missing, and losing homes, and everything that lives in between.

This week's podcast really is a universal one as we travel through time and space talking about archaeology, American politics, Spanish weddings, podcasting and our visit to the Planetarium in Madrid.

With music from Podington Bear 'Bjork' and Yung Kartz 'Wise Guy'.

In this week's episode, we went to the Walt Disney exhibition at the Caixa Forum. We also popped along to Cibeles to see an exhibition on the Sahara, and the people who have been left in limbo there.

This week we are lucky enough to get into the Republican bunker at Parque de El Capricho, which has recently been opened to very limited visits, as well as visiting MAN (Spanish National Archaeological Museum).

Season 6 of El Arpa Media Podcast is here! Join us as we visit Frank McCourt's house in Limerick and discuss the writer's brief but essential set of works.

Well, well, well... here we are at the season 5 finale as we take a two-week break for the summer holidays.

In this latest episode, we chat about the challenges and rewards of university research, and we also discuss the new leader of the Spanish political party PP. 

Midway through the show, we had to switch to the car because we ran out of time in the park. With the clock counting down, we finished the show en route home. But if you think about it, a podcast on the road, with themes of travel and change, is quite fitting. Let the sound of car horns in the background sound like the sweetest music!
